1st Avenue Pizza, Books Treats - Dayton

I was hungry for a gluten-free meal while visiting people on Dayton Mountain. I was surprised to find this jewel of a place in the heart of the city. As you can say, this place is unique. You can have a large cauliflower crust for all toppings toppings You choose how to make it right in front of you. Then the finished masterpiece goes into the oven to cook for perfection. The staff was very friendly and helpful throughout the process. I put my drink on the table to take photos and look around, and my table was immediately deleted. Super efficient staff. As you can see, I have half bbq chicken and mushrooms/black olives. I was very impressed by the quality of pizza. It was exactly what I was hungry for, and I was filled. They also have gelato, but nothing gluten-free at this time. The best part of the shop is to buy and search the book selection. The book Archway, as you come into the door, is old books from a local school that the owner said. Do not ask for a novel, because not here, but the good books. I would definitely recommend this place. I'll be right back.

I was really impressed with my order. The pizza was delicious and not as fat as chain pizza restaurants. The only thing I would change is a bit more thickness on the regular crust. It almost felt like it was thin crust.

Big pizza overall! We loved the crust style and the quality of the toppings. Mushrooms are usually sad/limp white mushrooms on pizza, but our were really well cooked. The only available sizes are 12, and if you don't like veggie pizzas stuffed with olives, I recommend going light on these. Would definitely eat again when in the area!

Really great! The pizza was much better than I expected Mama Gs especially or so, with brie, onions, spinach and chicken and it was fantastic. The banana pudding gelato was also amazing. Garlic nodes were just fine, but nice and hot from the oven. The book selection leans more on children and novelty books there is no ton for adults, but still a fun selection. The staff is super friendly!

Visited from florida. Very friendly staff and very good, fresh pizza. Got the regular crust with marinara sauce with bacon, smoked sausage and grilled chicken. It was delicious. Some of the best marinara I’ve ever tasted. And the smoked sausage was so good I had to ask the name of the brand. I loved the little bookstore, also. Lots of classics m. Very good selection.
