The Foundry Rooftop restaurant is located on the sixth floor of the AC Hotel in downtown Dayton. Inspired by the fire within foundries, the factories that produce metal castings, this wood-fired kitchen embraces the flame. Devour new takes on internally-inspired cuisine with our Loaded Potato Pizza and Ingot Crab Crakes, or our signature Foundry Reuben and Charred Meatballs. Hearty, midwestern favorites from Chef's James Wright and Joshua Cox anchor our menu like our Crispy Pork Belly and 24-Hour Chicken. And with a combination of smoked whiskeys, classic cocktails, and local beers, you’ll always have the perfect pairing of spirits to enhance the heat of your meal. Made for Dayton locals, or those local for the day, we invite you to join us on our open-air rooftop patio for dinner, drinks and celebrating your most special occasions with a private event.

We had a new server who told us it was her first night. She did a great job considering. All in all we will go back

Thanks for the kind words, Gina! We're happy to hear your server made a strong impression on her first night—those early shifts can be nerve-wracking. We’re glad you'll be coming back, and we look forward to welcoming you again.

The food and atmosphere were great but the margarita I ordered may have been one of the worst I’ve ever had. I had even upgraded to a better tequila. Decided to have drinks after dinner elsewhere.
The FoundryResponded on May 12, 2025
Jenny, We appreciate your thoughtful feedback and are happy to hear the food and atmosphere hit the mark. We're sorry to hear the margarita missed the mark—we’ll definitely take this back to the bar team. We hope your next round with us is more to your liking!
