26 Best Wine Bars in Columbus

“Cute coffee shop! Tried “I Yam What I Yam” which had a nice pumpkin flavor that wasn’t overly sweet. My friend asked for an Iced Cappuccino and the staff very kindly explained how they could accommodate an unusual request which showed their patience and focus on great customer service! The interactive downtown map was super helpful finding and navigating between hot spots in the area.“

“We went onto this Meadory tour for my Bachelorette and everyone had a blast!! The mead was delicious and we left buying quite a few bottles; I definitely recommend the Queens Bee if you like sweet stuff! Julian and Tanya did an amazing job with explaining everything and keeping my group entertained during the tour!“

“Great experience! We had a couple of glasses of wine and a charcuterie board ! Brandon was awesome, his customer service, knowledge and willingness to share wine experience! Great asset to the company !“

“A lovely atmosphere on a street full of boutiques to browse before or after dinner. It feels like an intimate/romantic space and was perfect for a girl's night out. All of the food was absolutely amazing. Drinks were strong and tasty. Definitely would recommend making a reservation in advance since it is pretty small.“

“Chicken and Waffles were delicious!“

“My first time there was this past Saturday OMG! Delicious food. Excellent service. Friendly and helpful and patient staff. I will be back often.“

“Best meal I have ever truly experienced in my 27 years of life. I have no other words I’m speechless at this meal and experience. Wowzie wow wow wow“

Cocktails ? was nice and good balance ?I love Italian food and it was the best carbonara I ever had! Kind people, beautiful design and great hospitality. Highly recommend ??“

“We would like to thank the restaurant for giving us happy memories during our short trip to Ohio with top-notch taste and service. I think the steaks here are really good, especially the filet mignon and Seared Tenderloin. For appetizers, I had Pan-fried Calamari and Tuna Tartare, which were also very satisfying. Although the service is slow when there are a lot of people, they are very friendly, and everything including table spacing, interior design, and lighting was comfortable. Although the prices are not very friendly, this is a steakhouse I would definitely come back to when I visit Ohio.“

“Best italian food I’ve had in the states- if we lived in town this would be my new go-to! Visited for anniversary dinner and everything was perfect- food, service and atmosphere“

“I ordered a gift card as a birthday present and there was a mix up (my end) in which they went over and above to correct for me. We don't live in Columbus but I can certainly see why my kids LOVE LawBird and their staff. We'll certainly make it a point to stop in on our next visit down.“

“The bar was quaint yet comfortable for our group of 5. Came up from Toronto to see the Ohio/Nebraska game. Were an older group so didn’t want to be with the students. This place offered us the proper atmosphere. The bartender was very pleasant and knowledgeable. All was great till we viewed the invoice. A special charge appeared on our bill for $82. No idea what this was for so we questioned management and received a questionable response.
Would have been a good night but this left us with a sour taste“

“This is my newest fav spot in Columbus. We first went for my bday with our two little kids. We were nervous at first bringing them, but felt welcome and they ADORED their dishes. It was, until Speck graciously brought my a mini ice cream cone for my bday when all hell broke loose ? we were SO close! My husband and I knew we wanted to come back....solo, for a date. We made it happen quickly and I again basked in the culinary experience. Servers are attentive, the ambiance is moody yet delightful, feeling as if you walked into a NY spot. We sat at the chef's counter, which was cool to watch the action.
Twice I for the Fungi Pasta Dish... I would eat it every night if I could. The server recommended a Pinot Noir to pair with it and oh my gosh, he was right. Those little moments is what sets restaurants a part. His knowledge for the dish, even though he said he didn't like mushrooms but knew the two paired together brilliantly was like YES!! THIS IS AMAZING!
Oh, the tuna Crudo dish??? I had to stop myself from being awkward and moaning out loud. I will be dreaming of that dish and counting till the next time we go again.
Well done! We are foodies and it's been awhile since a place has really WOW'd us and I'm so so happy to have Speck in Cbus!“

“Wine on High was the perfect spot for our company ladies night. Leading up to the event, Tina made the process seamless & easy. Her communication was great. The evening of our event, Eric took the best care of us. We did a wine tasting before dinner & he was so knowledgeable about the wines he was serving us. Dinner & drinks were loved by all. They even personalized the menus with our company logo which I thought was a sweet touch.“

“First time experiencing happy hour at Rossi. The food, drinks, and atmosphere were great. Know in advance that they don't allow for substitutions on happy hour items. There was also a minor mix-up with our credit card payments. Nonetheless, I'll be back, it was a good time.“

“Dos Hermanos is the best! Definitely suggest trying if you haven’t!“

“If you’re headed here on the weekend, prepare for a bit of a wait, usually around 30 to 40 minutes – but it’s completely worth it. People actually drive from over an hour away just to eat here, and many regulars have been coming for more than two decades!
They serve a warm, cinnamon roll as a complimentary appetizer on weekends.

Once you’re seated, you’re in for a seafood treat. The Grouper is beautifully flaky and packed with flavor, the Orange Roughy is buttery and just melts in your mouth, and the seared tuna has that perfect peppery crust and tender center. And the Walleye? Lightly breaded and fried to crispy perfection, served with a homemade tartar sauce that’s the ideal combination.
This is a must try sea food restaurant in Columbus area!“

“Love this place. What a hidden gem. Tracked in down on a recommendation from a friend, and glad I did. Bohemian with a hip, homey vibe. If I lived in Columbus, this would be my hangout.“

“Love the bloody Mary’s with bacon“

“This is a great place to enjoy a night out with your significant other, or just looking a relaxed, semi fancy spot to eat with your family. Our waiter was very kind and professional, and even went the extra mile to bring us complimentary dessert for our birthday celebration. This was only the second I had be there, but I know I will be back!

Dietary restrictions: Very good about Gluten Free options!“

“Tasty foods and friendly , knowledgeable servers.“

“The food was delish and the service was excellent … we will be back for sure …“

“From the moment we walked into the door and were greeted by Dave, we were treated to a special evening. Starting with a unique and tasty Bourbon Smash, we enjoyed the meatballs, excellent Chicken Marsala, finishing with the best Tiramisu and Limoncello we've ever had (thanks Tim). Everyone treated us as guests in their home, John( Batender), Brenda our server was the most delightful person ever, thank you Tim and Julie for the recommendations and our desserts. 5 Stars all around, we' ll be back.“

“The food, the atmosphere, and the service are all top of the line. We have returned multiple times and always walk away happy. Wagyu sliders, dumplings, and skirt steak are our personal favorites.“

“Our first visit to Ruth’s Chris . We really enjoyed our server and her fun bubbly personality . She took the time to explain the history of the restaurant and called herself the “menu tour guide “. Her name was Michelle . The food was amazing . The plate keeps your food hot throughout your entire meal and the steak is the best I’ve ever had ! I only wish I had a bigger stomach to eat more .This is definitely a place I will frequent now . 5 stars easy“
