“Jordane is a treasure to be had. First time there and she was our server. She was so polite and so funny as well. I will gladly be requesting her if she’s there! The food was amazing too. I just want unlimited potstickers instead of a bowl though 😂“

“The food was absolutely amazing! my 1st time having India food and it did not disappoint! Service was great!“

“Lavash Cafe is one of the best Mediterranean restaurants in the Columbus area. Our most resent visit was on a Sunday afternoon and we had a delightful experience.

The food is always spot on. My fried raves about the rice be to ng their favorite while I love the chicken kebob sandwich wrapped in the lavash bread. Most recently we tried the jumbo grilled shrimp which may be my new favorite dish here.

The staff is always polite and courteous. Additionally the bathrooms are spotless and even have a bidet sprayer available.“

“We are from Kentucky and were in Columbus for a concert. I’ve always wanted to try a place that has been featured on Triple D, and this was the best decision ever! High Bank exceeded all expectations! We left with a full belly and A bottle of whiskey to remember them by. Food was incredible. Service was incredible. From now on, every trip to Columbus will include a stop at High Bank Distillery!“

“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.“

We don’t get to visit often as it’s a bit of a drive, but are so grateful to have Portia’s when we have some extra time. Portia herself is quite an amazing person. I think she’s just a doll 🤗“

“When are you guys going to come into this century and sign up with GrubHub or DoorDash? You'd definitely increase your profits. Driving to pick up food is old school, LOL!!“

“My family had the pleasure of dining at Lola & Giuseppe's last evening, and it truly was a pleasure! We began with wedding soup (some of the best I have ever tasted), a Guiseppe's Salad, and spinach-artichoke dip. Two of our group had the meat lasagna which was delicious and a huge serving. Other entrees included egg plant parmigana and chicken marsala. All were excellent, large servings, and very reasonably priced. The surprise (and a good one) was the Creme de Limocello that was bursting with lemon flavor and a nice little nip. Service was excellent and the owner stopped by to chat on two occasions thanking us for dining there. It was undoubtedly one of the most enjoyable dining experiences we have had in quite a while. Highly recommend!“

“Overall really good experience. We had no wait on a Monday holiday, couldn’t believe how fast our food came out. Eggs Benny were amazing & the side potatoes were just as good! I wish there were more of a specialty coffee/latte menu. I was super disappointed when the waitress said only hot coffee or a cold brew 🥴 thought for sure a brunch place would have really good lattes.“

“Found this place while passing through and it was a fantastic surprise. The food is delicious, classic comfort food with really generous portions. The staff is incredibly friendly and makes you feel right at home. A perfect hidden gem with a great local vibe!“

“We are regulars here. The staff are friendly and hard working. Not afraid to have a conversation with you and they will make your order right without issue. They have other locations but we prefer this location based upon the employees we encounter and the food being so on point.“

“the atmosphere is nice they have several locations and the staff is always friendly“

“most amazing restaurant in Columbus“

“I came in to get breakfast to go . They were a little busy when I got there . I sat down and was gave silverware and offered a drink right away . I was accommodated by the regulars and Kate the waitress about what I should order since it was my first time. Regulars recommended I get a half order of French toast and half order of biscuits . Kate recommended I get the gyro since she likes it and its popular. I also ordered hash browns and scrambled eggs . I took the food home and the eggs were missing but they gave me a credit for those next time I come back . Everything tasted really good, loved the hash browns 10/10. The French toast and gravy was really good, the biscuits were a little crispy thou . Fiancé says gyro was okay but pretty dry not much meat 5/10. Will definitely be back Tuesdays threw Fridays when Kate Works !! Thanks for the great first experience. BTW this breakfast/lunch place is right next to panera !!“

“Awesome atmosphere! Service at the patio bar was exceptional. comfortable, friendly and just an all around great time.“

“I’m not from the area but I found out about Wario’s on TikTok. I have been to Wario’s twice now. The chicken cesar cutlet is AMAZING! The spuds and chicken parm is also amazing! My husband ordered the Philly and loved it. I highly recommend Wario’s. I wish there was one closer to where we are from! We will just have to make the 3 hour trip again 😂“

“Our first experience at Tommy’s Diner was fantastic! The food was delicious & the service was exceptional. The country fried steak was very flavorful and the cinnamon roll was to die for. We will definitely be returning! 😻“

“We were there March 3 & 4 ,2026 and the Filipino menu was so so good , it has a young dynamic ambience, always full everytime we were there that shows it’s really worth the wait(not too long). The service was worth coming back for , their staff really awesome, respectful and engaging! Bonifacio … it makes Filipino food reach top notch levels ! Lovelovelove“

“Finally my son bought sourdough bread today. That is I want. I am so happy to find a nice backery . I really like it so much“

“Update: We went back again on Friday… yep, we keep our promises 😂 Tanya took really good care of us and made the experience even better. Food was still fire, service was smooth and the vibe was still top-tier. At this point, they might as well save us a table every match day 😎“

“We had a delightful lunch today at Gallo's, from the moment entering, we were greeted by a Fine Gentleman that discussed our seating options ( Yeah, I'm a bit picky) to the time we departed with full bellies that was topped off with the Belgium Chocolate Mussee cake that was Outstanding!! Ice cold beverages and our service (Bartender) was Awesome catering to our every whim. This is definitely a MUST stop when looking for a Great place to dine!!“

“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.“

“Who knew a little out-of-the-way bar hidden in Clintonville would have the absolute BEST italian subs I've ever had?! My mom and I have lunch together there every Friday and they know when we walk in that we're going to split a sub. Don't even have to order! And they are extremely reasonable price. Best deal in town!“

“I have eaten here a couple of times and tried something different each time. Everything is GOOD! Best ramen in town!“

“The food is amazing. Best Kenyan food ever. Polite and friendly staff. I am amazed at this place. Will keep coming back“

“Great beer, great food, great people.“

“The atmosphere was fantastic! The staff was absolutely wonderful! The food was beyond fantastic!!! Highly, highly, highly recommend!!!“

“I recommend Condado tacos here at Easton. I also recommend our waitress Erin B. She is amazing, friendly and quick!!“

“The best and crunchiest pizza I have ever had! First time having it and it will definitely be number one on my list! The sub was loaded with meat and super good too!“

“We ordered DoorDash for lunch on Wednesday and the butter chicken, naan, samosas, and rice were DELISH!! My co-worker and I each had enough for 2 lunches! The buy 1 get 1 deal was also awesome!!“

“best Lebanese lentil soup! I'll go out of my way to get carryout.“

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

“The food is amazing! Love it! The atmosphere is quite comfortable. The service is great! Happy people!“

“Went in with a small group the night of Pride. Chad has what it takes to make the place run smooooooth. We watched him and his charisma and were very impressed with how he handled the crowd. He made everyone feel welcome and important (even when they tried to jump the line). Our waitress was Summer and she didn’t miss a beat. Everything we ordered came out hot and perfectly prepared!
Thank you for the quality service and food! Great atmosphere, food and service!“

“Went for lunch. It was great. Had chicken with noodles and pork with rice noodles. Both were delicious. excellent from the food to the great service and friendly personnel. Will be back for sure.“

“Believe the hype, their bagels are great. The vegan cream cheese is also wonderful. Can’t wait to go back.“
