The pearl has some of the best cocktails in columbus, not diluted, strong and still very flavorful. Food is also very good, love the dates wrapped with bacon and the wings are also excellent.

We made a late reservation, about 30 minutes until close. I brought some people from a meeting and it was their first time at the Pearl. We were greeted with a smile and Will, our server, gave us excellent and friendly service! My guests were pleased with all of our heavy appetizer selection. I'm looking forward to my next visit!

What a fun place! Must order the spoon bread first- so delicious. Wait staff is so friendly and cordial- this is the place to be for casual dining and great food! crowded and a bit noisy, but well worth it.

As always The Pearl in the Short North delivers. They took great care of us and took notes of my special requests. The food is amazing and we always love coming here, especially for happy hour!

We had a fantastic meal - food & service both excellent. Hanger steak was perfectly cooked & arctic char was served with a sublime sauce. 5/5 ... definitely will return.
Jennifer
Great food & friendly service. Fun place for a drink too. Open windows to street & hightop tables near a long bar.

Lincoln was great. However, there was a large table behind us that was so loud, it made conversation at our table nearly impossible until they left. Maybe keep large groups in one room..

Tonight was not a good night for us at the Pearl, we where seated in the back. The starters were OK, for that I gave a 2 star rating. Ordered the steak after in medium rare. Couple others at the table ordered medium, mine was towards well done, the others had their steaks over also. The second steak that I received again was over, more towards medium-well… overall the experience was disappointing, tip for the chef: learn how to cook your meats, it isn’t that hard, maybe get yourself back at culinary school…

The food was delicious and the service was excellent, but the dining room was cramped and loud. If you are looking for an intimate dinner, go elsewhere.

The server was good but the food just hasn't been up to par the last few visits, breakfast waffles and biscuits were super dry and we don't eat pork and the kitchen kept adding that to the dish .
The restaurant was pretty empty, only a few tables were seated when we arrived. Lots of open space. They sat us on top of 2 other tables. My back was touching my neighbor and I could hear their entire conversation. I would have preferred to sit further away since there were so many open spots including more private booths. A little disappointing. Food was good as usual. Service was a little slow. Had to flag down the waiter to take our order after we ordered apps. Donuts took forever.

Each year, when we visit Columbus, dinner at The Pearl is a MUST. Crafted cocktails are delicious, and there's a selection of fresh oysters you must try.

Incredible, and I mean incredible Hanger Steak, eaten with a Tempranillo. Truly of the best meals I've ever had.

The service was great and the food was outstanding. If you are looking for private, maybe not the place for you.
