“I know Flipside in Hudson so we figured to we would see if this location was just as good. The staff was wonderful and the menu was just as good. These burgers are the best. So many beers available & we stayed too long trying many of them. Definitely worth checking out.“

“We haven't been for a while but we live this place. Their fried mushrooms, burgers, crispy chicken sandwich and holiday cookie shake are really nice. My son's grilled cheese was a bit overcooked and we trued chocolate mint whip drink but didn't care for it much. Our server's name was Patrick and he was very friendly abd a crafted salesman. We got $5.00 vouchers with a gift card purchase for our next trip. The atmosphere parking lot was well plowed and someone had built tiny little snowmen on the sign which was very cute.“

“Just had Seitan's Realm for the first time after wanting to try for years. Absolutely incredible. I had the potato salad, mozahella sticks and the Rick Reuben. I will definitely be back. Edit: Also wanted to say I'm not vegan and I loved the taste of everything.“

“Great service and nice employees!“

“Horrible bison burger, cooked to death, could hardly choke it down, bacon jam not good. Bison is always dry but when you have hard brown fried parts on the outside it is super dry. They say they cook it medium, ummm no.“

“Preston's takes the time to check that the food that goes out is checked for quality. The fries are neatly served vertically in paper bags, are never greasy and have enough salt to please. We took my father-in-law there for a birthday lunch, and he commented that it reminded him of how burgers used to be in the 1950s. Preston's is not the cheapest, but it is definitely worth the price.“

“Such a great place. Love the natural light and nice people.“

“Rosa is very good server [Original] Rosa is very good server“

“pros and cons. CONS.. If you were to base your visit on first checking out the cleanliness of the bathrooms before you eat, you'd turn around and leave. The men's room in the basement needs so much work and the multiple colonies of gnats was like visiting the basement of college kids from a party and cans and spilled beer have never been cleaned up. Horrible condition. The ladies refused to even look at theirs. Booths are small and tight. Definitely an old building, but it's kind of cool with its history. PROS... Those were some really really good burgers. Wife got the Ali and I got the Old School. Burgers are huge and easily splitable. We tried this after friends suggested the burgers and we were not disappointed. Onion rings were too greasy for us, but the fries and homemade chips were great. Alll and all, it's definitely an option to eat again when in town.“

“​We made a road trip pit stop at this Culver's in Columbus and were very impressed with the service. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. We ordered the double deluxe burger and the North Atlantic Cod Sandwich. The burger was excellent—juicy and perfectly cooked. The fish sandwich was also very tasty, though I found the bun a little on the thick side. Overall, both dishes were delicious and satisfying. Given the great experience, we'd absolutely stop here again on our travels and try out some of the other menu items. Highly recommend.“

“My brother, sister and I were in town for a concert and had time to spare for lunch and were just walking around and came across the beautiful artwork on the building of the Alley Burger. Took a chance and walked in, immediately greeted by the staff with the warmest hospitality. We each ordered a burger and when I tell you we crushed these burgers like we were experiencing a burger for the first time… the taste was unlike anything we’d ever eaten. My brother who eats burgers all the time said “Well DAMN!”when he took his first bite. Just incredible. We never had to ask for anything, our waitress was on top of it the whole time we were there. When we were leaving everyone was so nice saying goodbye and thank you, welcoming us back. We stepped outside and met the owner who was so excited that we were from Pittsburgh. It was such a great time and yes, at this point, we will travel three hours for that burger again. Soon! Thank you!“

“This crew knocks it out of the park every time.“

“so the waiter was really sweet & very attentive I believe his name was Malik!! my friend & I saw him tend to several tables with a smile on his face. the food was so good. I had the vegetarian omelette. the drinks are really good too! if you want to try something new, I would recommend!! 🫶“

“Best place ever, and we wish they were open after frisbee!“

“Great food, lots of fine dinners to choose from. Their bison steak is the best I've had anywhere! I had some garlic mashed potatoes and steamed carrots with that and some lemonade. I've dined in this place before, ate bison burgers but this time I opted for their bison filet steak, and it was delicious. The whole meal was. Facilities are clean, now with soap dispensers placed around for your convenience. I hadn't been to this area since Covid hit and that has changed everything but I'm happy this restaurant is still in business. I came to eat there because I wanted to eat a fine meal before seeing the German band Kraftwerk that evening. The waitress was very quick in serving the food and very friendly. Sure, the dinners may be more expensive and there's not many restaurants in the Nationwide Arena area now, but why not go for something unique and special to add to your fun day? I have eaten here before and after attending events such as hockey games, Phil Collins, Bruce Springsteen, RUSH, (Jeff Lynne's) ELO, Adam Ant, Noel Gallagher and more throughout the Arena District. I'm glad this place is still around after all that's occurred during the past few years, and I highly recommend it to anyone who attends any event in the Arena District. It's as good as it ever was, maybe better. Food, service, atmosphere, cleanliness - ***** out of five. I will certainly eat at this place again, just as I have at previous times. Kudos! 😋🙂😇“

“Awesome survive, quick on getting food out. Refills are quick too. The one thing I wasn’t a fan of too much was the paper straws. I still do recommend! 🤍🤍🤍“

“Good food and good service at an all-right price is pretty rare to find. Definitely will be coming back soon.“

“Nightly specials and sports on TV. It’s great.“

“I highly recommend Ohio Brewing Company in Columbus, Ohio for not only their fantastic craft beers but also their delicious food menu. The brewery offers a wide range of tasty dishes that pair perfectly with their beers, making it a great spot for a full dining experience. From appetizers to entrees, the food at Ohio Brewing Company is always fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. Whether you're in the mood for a juicy burger, crispy wings, or a hearty sandwich, they have something for everyone. The menu also features vegetarian and gluten-free options, catering to a variety of dietary preferences. The cozy atmosphere of the taproom, combined with the mouthwatering food options, makes Ohio Brewing Company a must-visit destination for food and beer lovers alike. I can't recommend it enough for a delicious and enjoyable dining experience in Columbus.“

“I just came home with Tony's Coney's chili tonight. It's served in the winter. It is the best chili I've ever had. I have purchased so many items from there menu and never came across anything I didn't like.“

“After I ordered in the drive thru and went to the window to pay. I received a speciealty drink and did ask if it was large. A young lady said yes in a rude way and slammed the window shut. I was shocked because I was just curious.I do not go here much but will try again.“

“Went to the Sunday Brunch and it was awesome. Rene the Bartender was very nice and efficient. The manger checked on us twice. Had the Coldest beer in town after. I recommend it.“

“This is without a doubt - The Gem of Columbus.

Everything is perfect all the time here.

If I could buy this place and put it in a trust, only to ensure it would be preserved and remain unchanged throughout the generations, I would without hesitation.“

“I had a very good dining experience today. The Rooster salad was crisp. The traditional wings were on point. My server was very attentive and friendly. She stopped at my table several times in passing to see if I needed anything else. Albeit, it was not super busy at this time, I felt like I was being taken care of.“

“I visited IHOP and my experience was excellent. The food was delicious, very well prepared, and full of flavor. The restaurant was spotless and well organized. The service was 10 out of 10: the staff was very friendly and the food arrived really fast.
On top of that, the waitress who served us was very charismatic and attentive the entire time, which made the experience even better.
Without a doubt, it’s a place I will return to and highly recommend.“

“The food I have bought here is amazing!“

“Out with the family for dinner and we basically had to settle for this place because there was no wait time. The inside is basically a dive frat bar with music blaring. We ate outside and while the atmosphere was gross, especially for kids, the food and service were pretty top tier. I wouldn't come back, but the overall experience wasn't bad.“

“The girl at drive thru was friendly enough. For a take out at this time we were not given salt, napkins and ordered asked a diet and got a regular.“

“So first of all I try lots of places around Columbus and this is hands down one of my favorites now. Not only is their food fantastic, but their customer service is honestly above and beyond. Good people and good food, you can’t beat it.“

“Amazing cocktails! Get the “high street peach”! You won’t be disappointed and will leave with a buzz 🐝 also- the ranch is the bomb.“

“Just stopped in their, had good service and the employees was nice to me:)“

“The BEST BURGERS IN COLUMBUS!! So sad I moved out of town, these burgers will forever haunt and torture my soul because nothing compares and nothing comes close. I used to stalk this truck on Facebook. The PB&J burger is top notch and easily the best burger I’ve ever had. Excellent customer service too, they always remembered my name! Miss you guys 💚💚💚“

“I recently visited Burger Theory and their burgers are delicious. Small menu. I had the Classic Double Cheeseburger medium well, no tomatoes, and fries. Nice and modern burger restaurant located inside the Holiday Inn. Comfortable indoor seating with booths and or open tables. Decent size square -like bar located in the middle of the restaurant. Parking lot located walking distance from the restaurant. Maybe free parking for customers. Recommend talking to your server. Friendly staff. Decent prices.“

“Nicole, Jonah and Matt are my absolute favorites!!! amazing vibes, great service!! the best dive bar in the brewery district 🙌🏽!! Kitchen open till 1am always a plus 🤌🏽 and if you can catch Tommy he's best gem of the whole place ❤️“

“I love ihop the waitress was really nice dealing w me and my drunk friends we were kinda hectic sorry but awesome food cinnastacks fire 🔥🔥🔥🥞 we had big group very accommodating for our bigger louder group im sorry I don’t remember your name but you were very sweet :)“

“I posted a review earlier about the Livingston Ave location. The restaurant sent me a free meal coupon. Thank you. Today,I went to the Morse Rd location. That was a good experience. The food was good and the soda wasn't weak. I'll have to get a bigger sandwich next time. They should just close down the Livingston location for real!“
