One of the best places we ate at while out visit to Columbus. Even our kids liked their food. Wish I could go back now but that's 3hrs away. Very nicely decorated and warm and cozy inside. I highly recommend stopped here. Neat area too.

The Lasagna was almost $30 and it literally was awful; tasted like chef boyardee. Don't waste your money! The Tortiglioni was ok and the one virgin drink was awful. The desserts were the best part; the cannolis were amazing and the tiramisu was okay.

Very rude unattentive bartender. My friend and I came in for some wine and a light dinner.
We were treated very poorly. The ravioli was awful. We had to ask for bread when the people we literally moved our seats for at the bar had bread in front of them before we did. Terrible. Will not return.

One of the best dining experiences in a long time in this city. The food, drinks, and service were all exceptional. Our server, Cierra, was so pleasant and knowledgeable throughout the whole process guiding us on our journey of decadence and delight. At two points the chef came out and greeted us making us feel right at home. He introduced himself as Dom and even made us a sample dish of something he was preparing new for the next day. Our cocktails were second to none. The bartender came up with on and off menu drinks for us. All around a dynamite experience and a must go to in this city. If you haven’t been, what’s stopping you?! Support these people, this place is great and I promise you will have a great experience. Ciao!

The service is always top notch as well is the food. The restaurant is very clean. The portions however leave something to be desired. After ordering and finishing an entree, everyone at my table was still hungry.

So happy we discovered Giuseppe's in the cute Bexley area of Columbus! Jeff was our server and made the evening so enjoyable with great service and delicious recommendations. What a treat! The place was packed so I think we were fortunate to get a table on a busy Friday night. Everything was top notch! Highly recommend!

I've been there before so I wanted to come in and eat there again. The food was great when we had it before. When we came in tonight we did not have a reservation. The host was extremely rude and condescending when we said we didn't have a reservation. I then asked what was the best way to make a reservation because I didn't see anything on their website about reservations. I was again met with condescension; that they were a small family business and they only do phone calls, nothing online. This is fine but at least have it stated on your website or when someone asks a genuine question don't be a jerk when you respond. Overall, it was really rude and left a bad taste in my mouth. I wanted to show the place to my MIL but I probably won't now.

My lasagna was very, very dry… so much so that I didn’t finish it. My wife’s shrimp was served tails on and then covered in sauce (and no small plate for tails). This dish, while delicious, was incredibly messy and difficult to eat. Servers are very nice, polite, pleasant kids but they need some basic server training. This is a fine dining establishment, don’t rush plates away, don’t interrupt table conversation, don’t reach across people, serve from the correct side… just basic stuff that should be taught to young people working in a restaurant like this. The restaurant was not crowded at all but we were still seated directly adjacent the bar which was loud and made conversation difficult. I should have asked for different table but I’m just not that guy… I would rather complain online later. Giuseppe’s…. Up your game a bit.

Parking: After 6:00 lots of free street parking available.

The only true Italian restaurant in Columbus (Ohio)..... simple but refined cuisine at the same time, with Giuseppe and his family you can breathe an air of Italy and in Ohio feeling at home is wonderful. Thanks Giuseppe.....

We had a party of 6 here for dinner and ordered a variety of dishes. All guests reported that their food was okay, not fabulous but not awful. The exception was my Caesar Salad, not good, the strangest tasting dressing.
