“First time visit, will definitely be back. The service and food were both perfect. We had the biscuits and honey butter in a skillet, tacos (shrimp and grilled chicken both delicious), and the butter cake for dessert. The butter cake was delicious!! We were also pleased when our check came that we received our butter cake complimentary since we were first time visitors.“
“Such a beautiful little spot. Stopped in before a show at the Southern Theatre to grab some drinks and appetizers with my friend. The staff was incredible, drinks were outstanding, and the food was delicious! Highly recommend stopping in and checking out the gorgeous decor and menu.“
“FINALLLY!! A bbq spot that knows what they're doing! Beef ribs are superb ?! Baked beans are good, potato salad was ok though. I like more mustard in mine. I didn't care for Mac n cheese, it had a sweet aftertaste. I like to taste cheesy sharp cheddar and seasonings in my Mac n chz. It was overcooked:/. Otherwise bbq slaps! My son's co-worker kept telling us to try it, glad we did :).“
“Extremely welcoming and friendly environment with great food! Just as good of quality as a bigger name Italian Restaurant in Columbus for a more reasonable price. Fantastic service and you can really tell that it's family owned and the staff cares about the guests experience. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back!“
“We went to eat at Twin Peaks for our son’s birthday ( he chose it). We walked into a friendly atmosphere, nice bar and huge tvs everywhere. We got tall green beers for st. Patties day. Their beer tastes the best. They are always super cold served frosty. They are cold even after the frost is gone. We got the Peaks sampler for appetizer. In my opinion , it’s not worth 17 bucks. The food was good, but just didn’t seem worth the price. The dinners weren’t too pricey and they were served quick and hot. Our waitress Emma was fantastic , always checking in on us and making sure we were good. She did a great job. To top it off she got her other coworkers come over and wish him a great day“
“This place goes well beyond "bar food" and makes some truly delicious meals. The pimento burger, falafel, wings, Mac and cheese...all fantastic. Drinks are super reasonably priced and all of the bartenders we've had have been great.“
“Amazing experience here! We sat at the bar and the food was flavorful, and lively. Sean served us creative, complex cocktails. I mean truly memorable. Think you've had a good mojito? Try one here. Seriously, any of Sean's creations will engage flavors in a rare and elevated way. I don't think I've had a better cocktail experience.“
“The food was really tasty. I had the sausage and rosemary omelette, orange mango mimosa, and a delicious cookies and cream milkshake. The service was a bit slow and the interior was not interesting. It was a nice place for brunch with the girls.Vegetarian options: The menu is all vegan, and there are so many options.Dietary restrictions: Aside from the all vegan menu there were several items marked gluten free.“
“Girls night out. Clint, Dylan, Mike and DJ were working. We had never been there before. They were very helpful with suggestions. And the wings and pastrami/philly were delicious. All the staff took turns checking in on us to make sure the food was good, and we had everything we needed. My friend and I talked a few minutes beyond closing but they encouraged us to just take our time. Laid back atmosphere. Will be going back to try the brisket next.“
“5 stars all the way around haven’t tried anything on the menu that isn’t great. When at work a few of us eat or grab coffee here everyday. I live in grove city and make a trip here for lunch with the wife on the weekends sometimes. Great people great food. Hidden gem for sure.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu“
“We were going to the Cheesecake Factory however, I saw this place on the way there and instead decided to have our birthday dinner here.As soon as I walked in I knew I was in a whole nother level of restaurant. Atmosphere was excellent, the pathway to our dinning room lead through a majestic hallway of glass and mirrors.Once seated we were waited on by our dedicated server but also other wait staff that endlessly tended to our needs.Our server was excellent, they were absolutely so skilled at their profession, we didn't even notice the endless changes of silverware with each new dish.Alright enough about the service. The food was absolutely a show stealer.We began with sushi al a carte consisting of 2 salmon belly pieces, 2 of ahi tuna, and one of A5 Wagyu, each piece carefully topped with caviar and gold leaf. Phenomenal flavor, amazing presentation, excellent execution. Garlic ponzu sauce was served in the side.Then we had the Chilean Sea bass and the NY strip, we had the Gouda tater tots as a side. Words can't properly describe the excellent quality of this meal and presentation. The attention to every detail of the dishes presented was astounding.We finished with the hot butter cake and a creme brulee, both of which were excellent. Again, amazing presentation and top notch dishes.The drinks we ordered were served with a dry ice infusion which gave it a very cool look and bubbling the entire time. I had an old fashioned as well which was smoked with cherry wood. Incredible job done with every single part of the meal.And the fresh sourdough and pretzel bread was awesome!Can't wait to come back on our next trip. This restaurant is truly a cut above every other place I've ever eaten at.“
“We’ve been twice and had a blast! We’ve tried the fries, wings, and gluten free pizza and all were so good! I’ve tried at least 3 cocktails and enjoyed two so far (apparently I don’t like Campari lol). Great atmosphere and great music!“
“Absolutely exquisite cuisine. Carefully prepared and intentional. The staff is consistently kind and attentive, and the management clearly cares about their customers.Their happy hour is extraordinarily affordable and a really obvious choice.“
“I loved the meaty omelette with hash browns and the delicious biscuit. Great place to go to if you want a hardy breakfast/brunch. The bacon wrapped hotdogs with Pico de Gallo ketchup and mustard were also delicious. I think if I order the meaty omelette again I will see if I'm able to add some veggies too.“
“Excellent service and food. Our server, Adam, was absolutely the best! It was our first time here, and we will definitely be back. We had crab cakes, meatloaf and chicken romano, and the rolls were hot and light, so good. We shared the apple pie with ice cream for dessert. Delicious! We plan to come back for a shake and sandwich soon.“
“We visited this place while in Columbus for the 1st time back in April 2023..We then had it again at a game when we visited on an unofficial visit to OSU. When I tell you my husband and I love it and we look forward to visiting again. The fried chicken with the hot honey..the spoon bread OMG..the shrimp and grits amazing..the succotash I was nervous to try,but it didn't disappoint.“
“We've recently moved to the area and have eaten at Stav's several times. Everything about it is a treat. The food is great, the atmosphere is great, the people who work there are great, and the patrons are great! (I sound like Tony the Tiger!) If you are in the mood for an eclectic Diner experience, try Stav's. You might have to wait a few minutes because it is a popular and small place, but relax and people watch. The food is worth it!“
“I’ve been here a few times, and finally writing a review. Had Melanie tonight as a server, phenomenal. She recommended some great dishes for our party. They execute in every way a restaurant should. Can’t wait to go back, I wish I lived closer.“
“Easy to walk past but worth looking for this second story gem. Had a great experience at Denmark. The mixologist was fantastic and we shared some conversation around the different whiskey they had on the shelf. A great place for delicious drinks, but don’t go hungry. They do have a small menu for light fare food to take the edge “
“This place right here is IT!! It is a gem, the food is phenomenal. It's super small but has a comforting environment. We have had several different menu items and everything is amazing. Everything is homeade and made to order. The hash is unbeatable and the biscuits and gravy is like a grandma would make. Now let's talk about pricing, their prices are so good. This is hands down the best breakfast spot I've ever ate at in my 33 years.“
“Polaris Grill never disappoints. Made a reservation for 7pm on 2/17/2024. My girlfriend and I were sat right when we got inside a bit before our reservation. The Jimbo shrimp cocktail was pretty good, but I could do without the bed of chopped romaine under the shrimp. The 6 shrimp were cooked nicely and they gave plenty of cocktail sauce. I ordered a Manhattan and a old fashioned. Both were pretty good. I don't care for orange slices in my old fashioned, but it was potent enough to keep my mouth shut. Not overpowering, rather a noticable amount of bourbon. My girlfriend got a Delmonico with, what I believed to be, a sort of potato cake and veggie medley. I got a filet Oscar style with mashed potatoes and asparagus. My steak was slightly under medium rare, but it wasn't enough to complain or send back for additional cook time. The Delmonico had a bit more fat than I would have cared for, but that's a ribeye for ya. We also got the creme brulee for dessert. The dessert was awesome with a great bit of caramelized sugar on the top, fresh strawberries and a loaf of whipped cream. It was overall a great experience. This is probably my third or fourth time going to Polaris Grill and it has always been great. I hope this place lasts forever. Thank you again Polaris Grill and Luke Chaney for the great service. See you again - hopefully sooner than later.“
“*extremely late post *This was a very nice place. We went for brunch and it was pretty packed. That's always a good sign. I enjoyed the food. Our waitress was nice and consistent. The restaurant had a great atmosphere. I haven't been back yet, but I definitely plan too. Even if it's just for the Salmon. Some of the best I've tasted. Keep up the good work.“
“Reserve a table or get full dinner service at the bar. Great window seating and patio. "Classic" steakhouse-style dining room. This is a modern rendition of a 1950s retro restaurant. Great steaks and solid wine list. You will not go hungry and you will not go thirsty! Bar service is a great choice for enjoying the crowd.Dietary restrictions: Keto friendlyCarnivore friendlyLow carb friendlyPaleo friendlyParking: Valet is best option“
“came in with a big party for the nightclub and it was super busy but the service was STILL top notch and didnt wait for a thing! Everyone was on it. The show is absolutely incredible and i cant believe the talent thats hidden here!!! Everyone is so nice and sexy. Alexis was phenomenal. She made us feel like family. Will definitely back.“
“I set up a reservation on Valentine’s Day for my wife and I. Thank God they serve tasty mocktails because my wife is pregnant and we had a very knowledgeable server who guided her in the right direction and loved her drink.The ambience was very soothing and relaxing, the staff were all kind, and the food and plating of the food was quite the experience! Thank you Watershed!“
“Small restaurant in German Village. Make a reservation unless you like sitting at the bar.We got the Housemade Focaccia to start. It is awesome.Garden Pickle Salad to share. Pretty good. The dressing was very tart. Salads are a whole entree portion so share them or get them for dinner.Their suppers all looked good and made it hard to choose. For supper we got the Cuban and the Ravioli. Cuban was awesome and Ravioli was good too.We got the chocolate chip cookie with gelato for dessert. Of course delicious.Old Fashioned was great and my wife's mocktail she enjoyed but was very sweet so she could only do one.Ben was a great waiter with great recommendations and attentive service.“
“Been coming here for years, this is one of my favorite locations to just grab a beer in Columbus. The atmosphere has always been chill (even when the place is full) and the staff are always friendly, helpful, and attentive.Beer and grub is solid if not standout, and they get new things on tap very regularly.I recommend the place!“
“We went on a Saturday morning and the donut counter was Really Busy! We were able to seat ourselves right away and had service within just a few minutes. The coffee was great!! I ordered the French Toast and my husband got the burrito, smothered in sausage gravy. My french toast was good, but a little doughy. I like mine a little more done. My husband said the burrito and gravy were good. He also ordered a side of homefries and for the price, he definitely didn't get a large enough portion. He said they were good, a lot of garlic! Over all it was good, not great. A little expensive for breakfast. We ordered donuts on the way out and again good, but nothing I have to make a special trip back for.“
“I LOVE this place. It also has meaning to us as we celebrated our engagement with their best cake (in my opinion) Fudgey Wudgey! We decided to have that cake for our elopement a year later. There was a little miscommunication with the cake and when I expressed that to Lisa, she went above and beyond to correct it. This restaurant values their customers and I can’t recommend it enough. 10/10 all around.“
“There are a few places in German Village which can be someone's version of Cheers. This is ours. The food is spectacular and the servings are plentiful. Here you will find the tastiest burgers in the city. The draft beers are quality, the bartenders are great with a mixed drink. The original art on the wall is for sale and changes monthly, but everything else stays the same. The reason to go to the Mohawk is the atmosphere and the service. You will recognize the regulars after a while, and everyone in the restaurant will get to know you. When the servers ask you if you want your regular drink, or have half of your order written down by the time they ask if you know what you want, because they know what you'll order, you know your in a special place. That's the type of place the Mohawk is. It's the place where the tables are close enough that there are no strangers and your neighbor may engage you in conversation. The type of place where someone may buy you a drink or a meal after a great chat. It's the type of place that you go to when you want to feel the pulse of a neighborhood, and always feel welcomed.“
“Jamie was absolutely AMAZING!!!! He was kind, knowledgeable, attentive, helpful, professional, and took our experience to the next level. I absolutely recommend going to Guild House and if you can, ask for Jamie. You will have a top notch experience. Also, hats off to the Chef and management, everything was delicious!“
“Went to Fat Baxter's for the first time and loved it! We got three appetizers, the pretzel bites, Baxter Balls and Slut Tots, and they were all delicious! For entrées, I got a cheeseburger and my partner got wings. We brought home a lot of it, the portions are very generous. Parking was easy, with plenty of off-street parking spots. The service was fast and accurate! They accept all major credit cards. The general feel of this bar/grill is like "local meetup." I feel like the the staff knew a lot of the other customers, and there were regulars. Very fun atmosphere! This place is also very affordable, we would've spent so much more for this much food in Short North! We'll definitely go back!“
“First time dining and we enjoyed everything. We had a reservation and our table was ready when we arrived. Service was fantastic! Everyone enjoyed cocktails and wine. The non alcoholic Manhattan was a little disappointing - too fruity with a hint of licorice. We ordered the pork belly and cornbread as apps. For dinner, we had the farro dish, gumbo, chicken sandwich, steak, and she crab soup. Everything was full of flavor and I would highly recommend all of them. For dessert we had the creme brulee and chocolate bread pudding. Happy hour prices were a plus for the items ordered before 6. Will come back.“
“Townhall has a huge menu to chose from. It caters to any and everyone no matter what your taste buds or dietary restrictions are. I tryed the grilled cheese which was good and the tomato bisque which was fire(delicious). My wife had sushi and she said it was some of the best sushi she has in Columbus thus far. The drinks were also on point. I highly recommend giving them a try!!!“
“My experience at Smokey Bones was excellent. Made date night a great success. Tried the Bones Bar Bites menu and it was amazing. Same huge portions and great flavor at awesome and super cheap prices. We will definitely be back. Our server Danie was top notch and made sure we were well taken care of from start to finish. Thank you Smokey Bones. See the receipt pic for all the items we got for under 40 dollars“
“I live right by here and I finally made it over for brunch! I always knew it was small from walking by and when I walked inside I confirmed that there are only a few tables and bar seats, but they do lots of take out it seems. The entire place is covered in writing due to the markers left on every table, which was a cool vibe. I got everything but the chicken sink which is essentially a fried chicken sandwich with French toast as the bread - the chicken was good but not super crispy and the French toast was kind of meh. We also got the pancake balls with apple and pumpkin butter, which were delicious! I ended up eating the chicken out of my sandwich, skipping the French toast, and eating more pancake balls. My bf got the toast with egg on the inside and spicy/sweet bacon. I think he thought his meal was good, but nothing crazy! Overall I thought it was good, but I won’t be shouting from the rooftops about it.“
“Only reason I gave it 5 stars is so this can be seen. The food is mid at best, staff is decent. The MAIN reason I'll never be returning is because of candy (a server) we sat in her section and she just went missing multiple times. We sat with our food getting cold because we had no silverware and syrup. Then she comes back stinking of cigarette... after we already flagged down another server to assist us.“
“I go here often since it's so close to me. Their wings are delicious, and the rest of their food is really good! The best part is that their prices are super reasonable - which is rare to say these days. Overall, it's great! Service can certainly be hit or miss, but that's how it is anywhere. Love it!“
“Not your average steak house - in the best way. My wife and I really enjoyed FYR. The food was delicious and very different than what you'd find in most steak houses. It was a nice change of pace and something unique to choose from with many dishes and sides ranging from Latin and Italian roots. The staff was also great and super attentive. Including the lead chef who came out and talked with every table, asking how their experience was. Not something you see very often. We're already excited to go back and try something different from the diverse menu. Oh and do yourself a favor and try their espresso martini ?“
“Now, let’s talk about the food. Zorbas’ revamped menu is a culinary symphony, with each dish showcasing the best of American, Greek, Italian, and Mexican cuisine. Whether you’re craving a juicy burger with a Greek twist, indulging in savory Italian pasta dishes, or savoring the bold flavors of Mexican street food! New management “
“Dining at Alqueira was the experience that I’ve been searching for but not finding amongst the restaurants who seem to be trying too hard. The locally sourced and changing menu is prepared and presented in simple ways yet delivers deep and delicious flavors across all their dishes. We’ll be back the next time we visit Columbus.“
“The kitchen lost my order and the employee who brought it out to me came with a free meal voucher and a heartfelt apology for what went wrong, even acknowledging how much we're paying for the food. That really impressed me, and she made me feel important and cared about as a patron. North Star consistently has exceptional service and will always have my business!“
“Our party of four had an amazing time. Our server Ben was fantastic, and I highly recommend starting with the potato bread and curry mussel. The crispy snapper, scallops, and chicken were all to die for and everyone all around was more than happy with their meals“
“Went to lunch here with a friend. Great food and friendly staff. I got the spicy glazed chicken sandwich, and when they say spicy they mean it, glad I got the sauce on the side! We came in right at opening time and there was no one else there, but by the time we left it was busy. Will come back again!“
“Great afternoon experience we had enjoying breakfast meal. Walked in during a busy time and sat right at the counter and was waited on right away. Food service was exceptional and delicious as well as hot. Nice family environment with a smile! Definitely worth the $ and we will be returning soon! Thank you for serving the community!!“
“Amazing staff, excellent music. Their bartender Adam is one of a kind. Couldn't have asked for better service, this guy was on top of it. If I owned a business, I would love to make him the face of it. Thanks Adam, for a fulfilling night.“
“My all time favorite breakfast spot when visiting the area. I'm from out of state and come here for a convention. Love this place. They also serve mimosas, which I love. Eggs Benedict is awesome. Their other breakfast is great. Pancakes have a delicious crisp on the outside but are fluffy inside. Their design is also adorable. They put syrup and coffee milk in baby mason jars. Too cute! The staff is also kind and go above and beyond no matter how busy they are.I believe I also met the owner (or manager) who is attentive and ensures you're happy and know about their specialties. You can see the passion from everyone here, which is a refreshing experience. Thank you again!“
“Ate here twice in the past 2 days. Gyro hit the spot for dinner last night, had to go back again for lunch today. Carryout is super fast, friendly service & quite the tasty meal. I love the crunchy bits of gyro meat too. Will definitely be back!“
“This place was amazing. Bob our server was great. And the food was beyond expectations. Far far beyond. So delicious… I don’t even know how to describe it or put more emphasis. The food was spectacular. If you’re walking by, walk in and give it a go. You will not regret it.“
“I dined at Agni last night. From the moment we walked in the door we were encompassed in hospitality. Our waiter went above and beyond to make us comfortable and describe the components of each course. I absolutely loved the tasting menu and the surprises along the way. This was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had and worth every penny. I did the vegetarian course and my companions did the main tasting menu. I felt like I was tasting complex flavor combinations that just intensified with each bite. Highly recommend going for your own special occasions.“
