Lily's Bistro in the Oregon District will be hosting its Super Dad's Backyard BBQ Porterhouse for Two event on Friday, Sept. 4.

Starting this evening through Jan. 23, Lily’s in the Oregon District will be featuring a pop-up steakhouse.

The message from owner Emily Mendenhall that came out this week read, “our Executive Chef Don Warfe has had two leadership positions at steak houses and LOVES cooking steaks, so we decided to create a lil pop up steakhouse menu alongside our regular menu next week.”

Lily's Bistro in Dayton's Oregon District is finishing its transformation to Lily's Dayton. The new concept, "Good Food, Tasty Cocktails," will blend some of Lily's familiar favorites with a more affordable menu and cocktail list and offers a tiki-inspired theme. ALEXIS LARSEN/CONTRIBUTED PHOTOS
