>> Restaurants that are back in business after suffering damage from tornadoes
The Dayton Domino's Facebook page was both thankful and apologetic to customers in a post late last night, June 12:
“OK, what can we say? We way underestimated the Dayton Strong Support, and you guys overwhelmed us. We are sure we disappointed some with our service today. That was not our intention. We had four other stores supplying pizzas to help meet the demand, (but) it was not near enough.”

“For all those upset, we apologize. For everyone who donated to the Foodbank Jar and bought pizzas, we thank you. ... . Dayton Domino's is overwhelmed with your generosity ... . Thanks again for your patience and generosity.”

“We just want to help out the community,” said Tristan Koehler, the franchise owner of the Kuntz Road pizza shop and several other Dayton Domino’s locations.
Koehler said he was thankful the store’s staff was not injured in the tornadoes. Some sought protection in the store’s walk-in cooler, he said.

The business had some roof and exhaust-fan damage, “but in the broad scheme of things, our business was not badly damaged,” Koehler said. A power pole was snapped behind the store, and a several nearby businesses suffered more severe damage, the Domino’s franchisee said.
