“Went on Valentine’s Day without reservations. Were told a 45 minute wait for a table, or immediate seating at the bar. We chose to sit at the bar. Our waiter Maurice was quick to provide service and very friendly and informative. We both ordered the pacific combo and it was delivered in probably 10 minutes! It was outstanding and we were so stuffed we couldn’t even finish it, all the crab legs were filled with meat (never got an empty one) and everything was exceptional. We drove 2 hours to eat here and would do it again! Thank you Maurice!“

“Our server, Aaron W, was the best! Great customer service. He went above and beyond“

“We are beyond impressed by the food, great owner, friendly chef, and fantastic experience at Golden Fried Chicken and Fish. This is the place if you’re looking for true southern-style fried catfish. My husband and I went here for lunch. There was plenty of parking and a steady flow of folks in and out for good reason. The owner, J.R., greeted us as soon as we walked in. He was very helpful, informative, and so nice. His staff clearly respects him, and he runs a great shop. It only took 10 minutes to get all our food steaming hot and fresh. I ordered the catfish dinner. My husband ordered the Golden Combo. Just, wow. The flavor on this is 10/10. The last time I had catfish this good was when we were down south. Golden Fried Chicken and Fish is the best catfish in Columbus. Great business, incredible food. We can’t say enough great things.“

“I was in the Georgesville Red Lobster the other day and noticed a shift leader/manager cleaning tables and helping servers, as well as helping customers. It is nice to see someone in charge going above and beyond in this day and age. I asked a server his name because I was so impressed. She said his name is Ken and they love when he is on duty with them. I wanted to make sure his efforts did not go unnoticed.“

“This place never disappoints. We sampled a few cocktails, and every one of them was smooth, refreshing, and well made. The service really stood out—everyone was welcoming, attentive, and happy to help with anything we needed. The space has a clean, stylish look that feels both modern and relaxing. It’s the kind of restaurant where you can enjoy good drinks, great hospitality, and a comfortable atmosphere all in one visit.“

“One of the best dining experiences we have had in some time. We ordered the NY strip and a slice of their homemade pie. Every single thing we ate was delicious. Service was amazingly friendly. Best option in the area, by far. The steak here was a million times better than the steak down the street at FYR and was probably 30-40% less expensive.“

“The gator sandwich was my favorite by far of the items I ordered. My Boyfriend loves his Shrimp Sandwich and loaded fries was delicious 😋 as well. definitely will order again soon.“

“The server Nate was great for plesant service and timely on respond to service. The food was great and just as he Charleston, Sout Carolina. We celebrated Elaine in fine dining. The Vallet parking was nice for parking my F450. Try she crab soup and oyster on half shell. The Columbus Ohio restaurant is beautiful atmosphere“

“Excelente servicio, muy buena comida, precios razonables.“

“Our waitress was very good“

“Good Food.“

“Didn't follow any instructions. Fries was soggy. No extra sesoning on my food like I usually get. No tarter sauce packets. Just got hot sauce. No Utensils. How about yall read.“

“A week ago I was hosting a baby shower at the Goodyear Heights Metro Park. I ran out of taco meat immediately googled taco places near me. La Loma was less than half a mile. I called them and asked if they could make me pan of taco meat on a busy busy Friday night for them. They said absolutely by the time I drove there they had my food ready and threw in some extras, they literally saved my party. Most people didn’t even know. I ran out cause I was back in under five minutes. The food was amazing and they were such a friendly staff 10 out of 10 recommend“

“I brought 14 travelers in on a bus trip with 1018 Travels this morning. Called last minute and we had a beautiful table set for us when we got there. The food was amazing but the server was so sweet! We asked about the history and he answered . What a great place, will be back for sure“

“Ashley was a wonderful server, extremely accommodating! Her suggestions helped me pair the right drink with my mood and my meal! The food was phenomenal. We shared deviled eggs and steak egg rolls. The eggs were top -tier, and the egg rolls basically melted in our mouths. We ordered the prime rib with mashed potatoes, and our friend had the grilled salmon with orzo. We need boxes. We took home dessert. Coming here was the best decision we made last weekend.“

“My friend and I go weekly because this place is outstanding“

“The sushi is amazing! We order plenty of sushi and other dishes. The fish is so fresh! High quality sushi!“

“Friendly staff, the store was clean. Yesterday July 25, 2026 my daughter and her friend bought home some chicken wings from here and omg the best chicken wings I've tried in Columbus they were very well seasoned and crispy. Fast forward to today July 26, 2026 my daughter and I ate here for lunch I got the catfish sandwich (sub) with lettuce, onions, tomatoes, banana peppers with a tarter sauce combo (excuse the bite I couldn't help myself, it looked super good and was/is) with fries and a faygo twist $8.99 🔥 my daughter got the 3 piece wing dinner with fries and a faygo twist $4.99 🔥. I/we will definitely be repeat customers“

“Our server Manny was amazing , even though we aren’t from the area we will be back!“

“We really enjoyed our meals here. The filet mignon was cooked perfectly, tender and great flavor. The wood fired chicken was equally good. We would've preferred the roasted vegetables be a bit more cooked. They were hot but basically still raw. The desserts that came with the 3 course meal were all tasty and generous in size. Would definitely recommend the creme brulee cheesecake... outstanding. The only thing that kept this from 5 stars is the ridiculously cold air conditioning. Our server said she'd talk to the manager about it, but nothing ever changed. The food cooled off very quickly, and we were frozen by the end of the meal.“

“The food was really really good as were the potion size . I got the bbq bento box and takoyaki. The takoyaki was amazing. It's not on the printed menu, but it is online“

“One of my favorite things about Cbus. Forever one of my favorite places.“

“We were very impressed with both the food and the service. Will definitely return when we are in Columbus!“

“I’ve only ordered this this through delivery apps, so I can’t speak to the service or atmosphere. 9 times out if 10 the food is flawless. My only negative experiences have been with the meat pie tasting a bit dated. I’ve never had any other issue though. Great food overall.“

“Excellent service! Great food served fast and hot! Will be back next time we’re in town!“

“I went thru the drive thru, and when I received my food, there were no condiments, and I was specific about adding them.
The worker told me I had to go thru the line again for condiments 😳 by the time I went through the line, my food was cold! Poor service.“

“I loved everything about this place, service was absolutely great! Food was so good everything was served so fresh! Drinks were amazing, restrooms were clean, the server was so helpful! I’ll definitely be going back, not too mention how affordable it was‼️🥰❤️“

“I had an amazing experience at My Big Fat Gyros! The food was absolutely top-tier—fresh, flavorful, and made exactly how you want it. The gyro was packed, juicy, and the homemade sauce really took it to another level. You can tell they don’t cut corners when it comes to quality.

The service was just as impressive. Friendly, fast, and welcoming from the moment I walked in. They made sure everything was right and treated me like a valued customer.

If you’re looking for great food with great service, this is definitely the spot. Highly recommend My Big Fat Gyros—I’ll be coming back for sure!“
