37 Best Asian Restaurants in Columbus

“I ordered last second before the kitchen closed... staff stuck around talked offered drinks and even unnecessarily gave me a discount for the wait! Sushi is 10/10! I’ve never walked out of this place without thinking about how cool the servers are! My coworkers and I love coming for dinner and drinks! The double crunch roll is PHENOMENAL! Also has a very cool ambiance quiet with dim lighting and great decorations! If you are looking for some amazing Chinese/ Asian food without the craziness of molly woos or the lack of quality as some other Chinese places in the area definitely give this place a try! Can’t wait to go back!“

“My mom and I ate here for the first time. She has an hour for lunch. We dined in and she was able to get back to work on time. We are both VERY picky eaters and we LOVED the food. The food is ALMOST too pretty to eat. The waitress was AMAZING!! We decided that this is our new favorite spot!!“

“First visit. The food was overall good. My partner had ramen with pork belly, which she liked, while I had ramen with pork tenderloin which in my opinion tasted a bit old. The service was great, with an employee helping us get seated quickly as soon as a table was vacated. The interior was nicely decorated with the exception of the bar area, which had a plastic sheet between the diners and the kitchen, probably for sanitary reasons. The valve is good as we ate for under $40 pre-tip. Google Map users note: navigation would have taken us to an alley to the right of the restaurant. The location is to the left of the popcorn store in the front.“

“I travel for a lot for work (40-50 nights a year) and I attempt to try different restaurants wherever I go. Anytime work takes me to Columbus, I stay in Worthington and visit this place. The sushi is great as is the gyoza! This is my second time here and it's been 7 months since my last visit and as soon as I sat at the bar Sara said "great to see you again and how are all of your kids doing?". Wonderful place, with great food and a great staff. I can not recommend enough.“

“We got off of 315 at Bethel Rd looking for a place to eat and stopped here. The space was clean and fresh inside with an open kitchen. The service was fast and friendly. The food portions were large and we both enjoyed our meals. Wr had dishes that we had never had before and enjoyed it.“

“Areli was my server she built the most fantastic bowl I've ever had from Bibibop both in looks and taste. I already love the food here but her commitment to making sure you get what you pay for is beyond exceptional. 10/10 staff all around the kitchen thank you so much.“

“My husband and I had our first date ever at Claudiana. And for 5 years now, we’ve never had less than excellent food and service. We celebrated our Valentine’s Day together last night and I just have to say how wonderful everything was. The Marsala and side of fettuccine - 10/10. The lasagna - 10/10. Andrew was an excellent server and very kind. Thank you all again for a wonderful dining experience!“

“Healthy. Tasty. Fast. Cheap. Plentiful. No restaurant embodies these concepts like Bibibop. If you are in a major city in Ohio, you are likely not far from sitting down to a big, hot bowl of well seasoned veggies, rice, and protein. We desperately need them in NY.Now, are they the cleanest places to eat? No. The tables are cleaned every so often, but you will likely encounter a smudge of sauce or a few grains of rice from the previous diner. Servers are too busy behind the counter cranking through customers, and the dining area is very much left to the honors system. The servers are friendly and will load you up with the items you request with a little prodding, but don't expect rays of sunshine with every interaction. To me, none of this affects their overall rating as the food fits perfectly in its niche of being, again, healthy, tasty, fast, cheap, and plentiful. Bibibop, don't change a thing.Vegetarian options: Lots of veggies to choose from, and the marinated tofu is quite good - I eat meat but still enjoy it.“

“Went there with my parents recently & we all really enjoyed the food. I had the baked lasagna full order & ate the whole thing. It was so good. I really enjoyed the Italian Wedding Soup, it's one of my favorite soups. This one is the best I have ever had. I also got a cannoli & it is very good. The Staff were very friendly & attentive. My parents & I definitely will go again & I'm recommending this place to others.“

“great place, wonderful staff. however, only things is, if youre not into sweet, dont get their teriyaki sauce. i dont mind "savory-sweet" but oh my god, its bascially caramel. its nothing but sugar. you can taste nothing but sweet. if youre into that then awesome, but holy flib the single sweetest thing ive had in a long time. still great place good food and awesome people, just watch out for that teriyaki sauce.“

“I love the quality/variety of cuisine, the considerate service, the pleasant atmosphere - in short, everything about Chi Thai. My family and I have never been disappointed in an order here. We have come here for dinner and lunch (I love the Ma La string beans with tofu and hot and sour soup), and have gotten take-out as well (drunken noodles or pad thai, and vegetarian spring rolls heat up so well in the air fryer). We have also ordered catering for a large dinner evening at a local VFW, and they were beyond fantastic! They made sure to give us heaping quantities of everything at a great price, and even gave us recommendations on entrees and estimating quantities to order based on their/our prior events. Whether you want a few apps for two when you are on the run, a sit-down family dinner at home, a foodie night out for ten, or a party for your office, Chi Thai will make you so happy!Vegetarian options: There are many, many vegetarian offerings. You just have to ask for items to be made without meat or with tofu instead of meat. They are very very kind :)Dietary restrictions: The restaurant will do everything they can to help make items free of allergens. I am allergic to dairy, so this is not as big of a problem here, but I am also unable to digest meat. They modify dishes to include tofu instead of meat with no surcharge or question, and add extra vegetables to give extra nutrition.Parking: Loads of free parking“

“Tried this on a whim last night for dinner and I’m very impressed. I ordered online and our food was ready when we arrived. The spicy teriyaki chicken was amazing and my husband loved the Hawaiian chicken bento box. My son tried the sushi rolls and he said they were really good. Not too expensive and high quality food, not that weird grisly meat that some Asian food places sometimes serve. Highly recommend!“

“Absolutely blown away by this place!!! I have lived around the corner and only thought they served tea. The food was amazing and super fresh ingredients, the atmosphere was cozy and relaxing and now I think I live tea trying the daily sample. Can’t say enough great things and can’t wait to bring my wife here!“

“I love this food special kimche and meat ? all the vegetables ? thank you guys, very friendly and smilingVegetarian options: There is a variety of meats and different spicy and sweet vegetables taste to choose from.Kid-friendliness: children have options to eatWheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“Myself and two coworkers had drinks,appetizers and dinner. The food and atmosphere was great.But, even better was the service. Bella was fantastic. She made the entire experience wonderful. We will be back and hopefully have Bella as our server.“

“My wife is from Columbus, Ohio and obsesses over this place every time she comes to visit family. I really wanted some of that famous Ohio pizza, but of course, Happy wife. Happy life, So I "happily"ordered from here. I've had homegrown bibimbap in Philly before and didn't think this chain location would be as good, but to my surprise it was pretty great. The portions were plenty on my sweet and spicy chicken bowl and I really enjoyed all the free refills of my blueberry lemonade. The only thing I wish I did was buy some of their sauce to bring back home. What place makes the best bibimbap you've tried?“

“Genuinely don't have a single complaint about this place! We had the Tiger Tail with Pork Belly. Delicious, the broth was phenomenal.The Numbing Beef, add mushrooms, certainly lived up to it's name spice wise! Delicious.Thai tea and spiced edamame. All 10/10. ?“

“One thing I REALLY do not like is when they automatically tip themselves a generous tip on your bill before you even see it or have a chance to discern whether your experience is worthy of a tip. Even as a single diner, they do this to you. As much as I like everything else, this practice keeps me from returning more.“

“The man on cashier was so nice and we had a good conversation while i waited for my food. I got Habachi Shrimp and Spring roll. The price is amazing for the portion and for what you get. they do not skimp! the spring roll isn’t what i expected only because i grew up with spring rolls being something different than what i got; but it was good! the man had service so great that that alone made me want to come back. i’ll definitely be back again soon!“

“Fresh food, quick service, laid back and clean dining area.Vegetarian options: They have plenty of items that can be selected for a vegetarian meal.Dietary restrictions: I am on Keto and I was able to find a selection of items that accommodated for my dietary restrictions.“

“Why didn't someone tell me Bibibop is ? delicious? I'm hooked.Vegetarian options: Tofu is delicious. There's plenty of items to choose from that will fill you up.Dietary restrictions: Everything is gluten-free, including the cookies. The chocolate chip cookie ? is the best tasting GF cookie I've had thus far. No aftertaste.“

“Love love love this location. I’ve been to a handful of Bibibops around Columbus and Reynoldsburg and this one is by far my fav! The staff is always so welcoming and the food is always fresh. Every time I come, I pile on all the veggies and super foods! They are quick and work as a team! thanks for the great experience.“

“Oh my goodness. I've been meaning to stop in for months, and happened to be nearby at lunchtime. Looks small, and it is small. There is a table and a couple of chairs, but they are house-style furniture, meant more for waiting than dining in, and were covered with an in-progress puzzle surely meant at least partly to dissuade potential non-carryout customers. Big menu, with lots of interesting items. Several Malaysian dishes, fairly rare in town, so I tried one, mee goreng. Fried noodles in a curryish sauce, with a moderate heat that builds. I got beef; there are other proteins. Very tasty. Big portion for $8 at lunch. Tender slices of beef, flavorful sauce, a few green onions and some lettuce on top making a futile stab at healthiness. Cheap. Great. And fast! I figured I really should have called my order in (no web ordering,) but wanted to check the place out and maybe eat there. But though the owners were busy, cooking and prepping deliveries, I got my food in about 5 minutes. I had asked for summer rolls but she said they would take awhile, made from scratch, with the other stuff they had in the pipeline, so I did pass on those. But lunch at almost noon on a weekday in 5 minutes, for $8, for plenty of tasty food? I'm in. Parking is weird, of course, right along the street but perpendicular. Be careful backing out- because of the street, and a light pole. If I lived nearby I'd be here a lot. I'll be back.“

“I love ordering food from here. Personally I get take out, but I’ve dined in once or twice. The quality of the food is pretty good even when it’s take out and the portions are very large, which I love. They’ve got a large menu and I’ve personally never been disappointed by anything I’ve tried even if I’ve never had it before. I come back for the Tom Kha Gai and Thai dumplings regularly. I also recommend the orange chicken, lo mein, beef buns and pad thai. I think I’ve been getting this place pretty regularly for a few months now and I’m always happy with the food :)“

“Overall good experience, and I can definitely recommend it. Had lunch here, so cannot vouch for the dinner menu, but the sushi was pretty good as well as the bento box that I got. Really good teriyaki chicken and vegetables, and the miso soup is delicious! Good service and good atmosphere, although parking can be a little challenging. Check it out if you're looking for a good sushi place in town.Parking: There's a very small parking lot behind the restaurant that is shared with the other businesses, but there is also a parking lot across the street that is pretty easy to get in and out of onto the main street.“

“We had vermicelli noodles, pho, banh mi and Vietnamese flan here. All of them are good.The server (Natasha) is very friendly and helpful. I’m impressed that she could take order in Vietnamese. It was fun to talk to her.To be honest the food quality and experience in general was better than my expectations. I will definitely come back when I visit Columbus.“

“I love love love this place. It's the best Asian Food in the whole City. The food is always fresh and is brought to me on timely manner. The inside is very beautiful and clean. I'm always greeted with a smile. The customer service is great. I love how they stayed true to their culture even though they live in America. Most foreign slice to this country and forget about who they are and where they come from but not these people. I love the food and this is my spot to go when I want to enjoy great food and a friendly setting.“

“I have been ordering takeout here for the last decade, usually the same order. The beef pad Thai with shrimp for an extra $5. They give you so much shrimp, and the shrimp are good sized. You get good value here. The food isn't authentic but it's enjoyable enough.“

“I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here, but if you need a hot meal at the hospital it's absolutely fine. Hot and fresh, and the vegetables in my meals were very nicely cooked.Vegetarian options: A good range of vegetarian options - vegetable dishes, tofu, and noodles.“

“Spontaneous food truck stop did NOT disappoint! The food was flavorful, fresh, and delicious! The woman at the truck was an absolute sweetheart and prepared our food very quickly. I will definitely be visiting again when I am craving hibachi without wanting to go sit through the whole in house experience. Better than any other to-go hibachi I’ve had! The yum yum sauce was a little lackluster, but the ginger sauce was so good I didn’t mind“

“I was thrilled to hear this Asian restaurant was still open. It is under new ownership and the food is just as good! The portions were very generous and the staff was friendly. The owner was very helpful and appreciative of our business. The strip of businesses is all that remains from City Center Mall. Very glad this restaurant is still open. I'll be back!“

“Ordered take out on a Saturday evening. Wait time was decent. We ordered tofu pad thai, general tso tofu, fried shrimp, veggie tempura, and a veggie tempura sushi roll. Overall the food was good. I would return if I lived in the area.“

“My boyfriend and I came here yesterday after trying to go to another sushi place and they were booked for the night. We are from out of state and never been here and the staff was so friendly and we even got our drinks for free. The food was delicious and the portions were great. The atmosphere was clean and very cute. We will definitely be back next time we’re in town!“

“We usually go to the Plain City Bibibop, but we tried this location out for the first time and loved it so much too! The dining area is very spacious with a lot of seating options. Everything is so clean. The service is very fast. The food is delicious - as always! We will definitely be putting this location in our regular rotation.“

“I have visited other locations but this one was fresh, new, and amazing!! This was this love at first bite! I had the Roasted Salmon and Vegetables with Rice! I have been twice in the last week! The service was amazing! My food was Uber delicious! Nathan was phenomenal! and I will be a repeat customer for this location!!“

“Very small, nice dine-in area. Fast service dine in or take out. Very limited eating area.War Sue Gai wasn’t the best I’ve eaten but it was tasty. The dine in plastic eating utensils are FLIMSY and CHEAPLY MADE.Parking: Plenty of parking outside the restaurant that’s shared with other businesses. Easy in and out parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of parking because it’s located in a large shopping center.No entrance wheelchair access.“

“Best sushi i've ever had. I always get the Sashimi or a combination with sashimi. I've gotten both party trays, and only the eel wasn't as good. The sushi literally tastes so fresh and melts in your mouth. Besides this, Akai hana is the only other decent sushi spot in Ohio.“
