“This is the most unique bar I’ve ever been to. What other bar has 70+ shots that offer something different?Genuinely, I’ve never been somewhere that’s been so true to their name. Also an incredibly helpful staff. They always somehow know what I haven’t tried yet. Almost like they know me on a personal basis.10/10 recommend this establish if you want a different experience from the normal boring bar scene.“

“What a wonderful find. I stumbled on this bar in the lower level of The Tiger hotel. It has an upscale speakeasy feel, but with no password or invitation required. The cocktails were great and the bartenders were up to the challenge of making unique drinks. Can not wait to visit again.“

“Patio is glorious and service and food is great!“

“Columbia's best hidden gem. Best prices for quality drinks plus the greatest owner!!“

“Very nice atmosphere with super delicious food! Service was also fantastic. Went here for my partner’s birthday and it was nice! Sadly they are strict on omissions. We wanted to try a noodle dish that sounded SO good…but we don’t eat pork and they wouldn’t allow the omission. However, everything else we tried was delicious! Smaller servings so you’ll have to order a few plates. Definitely would recommend.“

“Great food and even better service! Brett is an amazing server; he is very personable, quick, and helpful!“

“Absolutely wonderful experience. Best food ever! Everyone was friendly and professional. My kids kept asking me how the beef at this restaurant was so much better than other restaurants. It led into a discussion on choice and preparation. Highly recommend!“

“The staff was very friendly, great atmosphere and the food was on point. The staff was very attentive but not too attentive“

“Great atmosphere! And the best bartender in town Liz!🍸💫“

“We’ve there a few time already and every time the food and Staff have been great. Pretty good place to come with friends chat & enjoy the food and it’s not expensive either for the whole family or like us empty nesters. We will continue to come here to eat and we do recommend.“

“Chanced to eat here as a pleasant day and they had outside seating. Their caldo pollo (chicken soup) was excellent. Caldo Pollo is a sentinel dish. If a place has good caldo pollo, carnitas, and tamale it's pretty certain everything else will be good. Also had a very good torta cubano. The extra spicy salsa (you have to request) was superb. Love the staff.“

“Very good atmosphere and nice staff for an afternoon drink/late lunch.“

“If there’s once place in Columbus that bourbon aficionados need to go it is here. Jeff was amazing, he’s knowledgeable and friendly. Take my unsolicited wisdom with a grain of salt, I am from northern British Columbia where bar tenders/owners that personally love bourbon are not a common commodity.“

“My friends and I love this place!! Georgia is the best bartender in the world. She made me a drink based off my personality? And it was the best shot I’ve ever had. I don’t live in Columbia but I will be back solely for this place and Georgia. Thank you for being amazing♡“

“This is my first time here, you should try it also.“

“Our server was named ty.she was absolutely fantastic.we will be back.awesome food too.“

“Love Sushi is hands down one of the best dining experiences around. The quality of the food is exceptional, everything is fresh, beautifully prepared, and absolutely delicious. You can really tell they take pride in what they serve.

The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, and the owners go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. Their hospitality truly sets this place apart and makes every visit feel special.

The atmosphere is perfect; warm, inviting, and comfortable whether you're there for a casual meal or a special night out. If you’re looking for amazing sushi and a place that treats you like family, Love Sushi is it.“

“Visited for my sister's graduation dinner. I called to make a reservation and wasn't sure what time the graduation would end so I said 5:00 PM. The graduation was quick and we got there at 4:30. Even though the initial server assigned to our table wasn't there yet, they still seated us at 4:30. The menu was large (almost too large) with a good variety. We let the server know we wanted to split the bill 5 ways and ordered drinks and then food. Everything was pleasant throughout, the food was good, and no mistakes were made. They had a Jonas Brother concert muted on the tv.
Overall, would definitely recommend!“

“The food is great and service is always great!“

“Thanks so much for the very much needed girls evening out! Good food great service and amazing atmosphere!“

“We have been eating at Las Margitas for over a decade and it has been amazing everytime. Today however we got to try out the new to go drink containers and they are amazing! They have truly thought outside the box and revolutionized to go drinks! Thanks Las Margs!“

“AWFUL SERVICE AND MANAGEMENT. The workers are so rude!!“
