New American Restaurants near Dublin, OH

“I really wanted to love Gene's, as I have heard wonderful things, but we were very underwhelmed with the food.
The Crudo small plate was mediocre at best and very fishy (although it was beautifully plated!). The Asparagus was delicious, but not $27 delicious. The Ricotta cavatelli was ok. The Pork was yummy. The Quesillo (Venezuelan flan) was just... meh.
The service from all staff and the atmosphere were absolutely A+. (Ellie (sp) was amazing!)
I will go back to give it another shot, but for the price it's a tough sell...“

“Great food and customer service! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a nice place to eat“

“Absolutely Delicious! The Best Shrimp Scampi Ever! I modified the dish to have it with linguini instead of the orzo...So Good!!! Our server, Kennedy...and friends, were a delight to be with! I even celebrated my Birthday with them! Thanks again 101 Craft Kitchen! Do Visit and Eat!“

“Food is good, though it is the only place I know where you have to sit at a high top or a bar stool to get discounts on appetizes during happy hour. Not everyone can sit on a high seat.“

“Rita is the best! We had our wedding there last year and we highly recommend it for both large parties and just everyday happy hour and meals.“

“Excellent from start to finish“

“We love to see more organic restaurants in the area. The only downside is that they don't accept cash which is strange and excludes some potential customers.“

“Absolutely Amazing! Everything we tried was presented so nice!! Loaded with flavor & fresh ingredients !!! Would definitely recommend!!! Total 10!!!❤️“

“Great service and a large menu.“

“If there’s a better restaurant in Columbus, I’m not aware of it. Highly recommend, never disappoints!“

“🍷 Growing up in Italy, I’m naturally a little picky when it comes to Italian food, but Forno Kitchen + Bar has become one of my favorite spots here. I often come for their wood-fired pizza and house-made pasta, both full of authentic flavor that instantly take me back to evenings in Turin. The warm atmosphere, paired with a good glass of wine, makes every visit feel like a little taste of home“

“First time there today! Our food was very good, nice outdoor area to eat outside, and our server, Rachel, was awesome! Will definitely come back!“

“Gabriella was an exceptional server, deserving a perfect 10 out of 10. She delivered our food promptly and consistently checked on us, ensuring we never felt neglected despite having several tables. Her recommendation to try dessert was so convincing that I decided to indulge, even though I typically skip dessert when dining out. Her suggestion was truly delightful.“

“My husband and I have order from them twice now through door dash. We enjoy their food! It is so 😋 tasty!

I looked them up here since we just now discussed maybe one day actually traveling to eat here. They've not made any mistakes thus far, but even then we tend to be a gracious bunch 😜“

“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!“

“Relaxing, entertaining & fun. The food is adequate.“

“Nice American style fine dining. Dishes generally lean towards the sweeter end of the pallet. Meal comes with a starter of good bread, sweet cream butter and garlic. Friendly wait staff are knowledgeable about the dishes and check in an appropriate amount without being overbearing. They treat special occasions like birthdays and anniversaries to a little extra. We got a rose and dessert.“

“Your new summer obsession is here. 😍 Compressed Watermelon. Honey-Lime Ricotta. Lemongrass. Ginger. Pistachio. Cooling. Creamy. Crunchy. Absolutely incredible. #PlasMelonNRicotta #FoodieFind #InstaFood #Yum #Delicious #EatLocal #TryIt #Refreshing #columbusFood“

“Good food good service!!! Highly recommended!!“

“Loved the food, service and atmosphere.“

“Good food good service!!! Highly recommended!!“

“I’m visiting for Atlanta and just walked in here. The food was so good! The sushi was so fresh and flavorful! Also had the burger and triple dip. It was nice to have different cuisines in one meal. Mayli was our server and she was so sweet and had great recommendations! She gave us a full menu walk through and her communication was top tier. Thank you!“

“Excellent Food, Top Notch Staff... Wonderful place for our Holiday Party... THANK YOU!! 🎄🖖🏻❤️🤍💙☃️❄️🌎🇺🇲“

“I am a frequent visitor to this location for Cap City fine diner. All the employees are wonderful and super friendly. The food always comes out perfectly and if there’s ever an issue, they take care of it immediately. This dining spot has such a great variety and I need to give a shout out to a particular server. Matt is a sheer delight! Super respectful and knowledgeable about the menu.“

“A really great experience and a perfect way to close out a busy day. After spending all day visiting OSU, this was a great place to grab a quick meal and a cocktail before heading home. The staff was friendly and the prices were on point. Complimentary drinks and good food rounded out the meal. Try the margarita pizza and nachos with both dips! Will definitely be coming back.“

“Overall, a very pleasant experience. Our sever was friendly and attentive. Nice vibe, relatively quiet even with large groups and children seated near. Food was all good. We had the June special drinks and dessert. I recommend both. We loved the tempura mushrooms and grilled peppers. The restaurant is pricey with relatively small portions, but the quality is there. I would definitely go again should I find myself back in the area.“

“Amazing experience from cocktails to apps to entrees! I mentioned my nut allergy and I felt that was heard - which made my birthday dinner stress free. The servers and waitress were attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. It can be a loud environment, so if you are looking for a more quiet, intimate place it is something to consider. Will be back for their happy hour!“

“A hidden gem in Columbus for the more relaxed and refined folk looking to have a chill night out. The Denmark offers a great European atmosphere, located on the 2nd floor of a building just across from the convention center. The large windows, low lighting, and casual seating arrangements all set the mood for great conversation amongst peers and intellectual discussions about the various oddities of life.

There aren’t many food options but this place is great with its cocktails. I think there’s always something for everyone, their menu regularly rotates through new unique drinks but has a good repertoire of their classics; The Elderflower Paloma and Mango Daiquiri are particularly exquisite. To my knowledge it’s only run by three guys, which means service will be a little lacking at times, but they’re all great bartenders and have a sweet personality behind their gruff exteriors. They’re just a trio, cut them some slack.

Theres chess sets, self serve water and various card and board games you can pull out from their selections which is complemented by the modern decor to make this place a routine stop for me when I’m out and about downtown. The only negative thing I have to say is that this place is usually very sparse and not as full as I would like it to be, highly recommend more people check it out and make it a regular stop for their nights out as well.“

“Always a great time at The Avenue, but Brady really set the bar tonight. Constantly checking on us, very attentive to us and everyone around us, and never skipped a beat when it came to explaining specials and answering our questions. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Yana is by far the best server at Parlay. She helped us get a game on TV that we wanted to watch and even moved our table to the boardroom so we could watch with audio. She checked in frequently and kept our glasses full. 10 out of 10. Would come again and ask for her.“

“We had several dishes but the short rib was tender and delicious. The burger which my son stared was the best he ever had echoed by the server was ok. I would definition come back for the short rib... the cookies were smaller than miniature but it's a nice touch.“

“There was amazing service, it was fast and the waiter was amazing. They were pretty busy when we got here but got seated right away as well as our food was fast and tasted amazing. Definitely a favorite and will come agin“

“Great Bourbon and Great Food!“

“We love this place! But didn't check my order before we left tonight and it was wrong. Bad me. Didn't get the sub I ordered and all was cold. Just check your order before you leave.“

“We had a delightful Christmas Eve dinner with appetizers and three different entrees. The gnocchi was absolutely delicious and our favorite! The sauce was wonderful!“

“Bodega is one of those places that knows exactly what it is and leans into it. A low-key, no-frills neighborhood dive with just enough charm to make you want to hang out longer than you planned.

The funnel cake fries are the real surprise hit. Crispy, fluffy, perfectly dusted with sugar and dangerously easy to keep eating. I honestly came in for a drink and left thinking about those fries.

Huge shoutout to Salim behind the bar. Super friendly, attentive, and bringing just the right mix of smooth and playful energy that makes you feel welcome the moment you sit down. He made the whole experience better.

Bodega may not be trying to be fancy, and that’s part of its appeal. It’s a relaxed, easygoing spot with good vibes, great service, and snacks that punch way above their weight.

Would come back, especially for those funnel cake fries and Salim’s hospitality.“

“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.“

“This establishment is family owned, with live music on the weekend, great happy hour along with very nice service. I have been a customer of the Canabar for a very long time, definitely would recommend meeting your friends there!!!“

“Yum!!! Shrimp tacos were delicious!“

“We had a large group (10 people) go in for brunch today. I rarely leave my house due to health reasons. This was a very lovely, relaxing time. The food was delicious and service was great. Thank you very much!“

“Hudson’s is usually our family’s go-to-place for special occasions. We were there on 6/20/26, celebrating Father’s Day. We usually have great food and great service, but we were a little disappointed on this visit. I got the swordfish special with peach chutney. The fish was overly seasoned and too spicy. Nowhere did it say on the description on the meal, did it mention spicy. I perspired uncomfortably due to it, which I generally do when foods are too spicy. The kale salad that was served with it was delicious and the peach pound cake was delicious as well, but with too few peaches.Husband said his French dip sandwich was not as good as usual, different type bun, and his fries were not hot .“

“Belly up to the bar if it's just two of you or grab a table for a group. The Press has an awesome craft beer list with lots of local options and good pub grub. The burgers, wedge salad and steak fries are my go to, but that's always dependent on what's the daily special. Sunday steak night is also a good value.“

“Wow. First time visiting. I wish I would have come sooner. Beautiful decor, lively atmosphere, excellent server, and one of the best meals I have had in Columbus. There were 5 in our party. It was a Sunday, so all day happy hour. Appetizers were 1/2 off. We shared several types of sushi and taquitos to start. Sushi was very fresh. For mains, we got burgers, tacos, and fish sandwich. All very yummy and well-prepared. We shared insanely delicious desserts- chocolate cake - which had more of a brownie consistency but not complaining - and olive oil cake with the best flavored whipped I ever had - creamsicle. Tasted exactly like a creamsicle ice cream bar. Everything was just delicious. Our server was terrific. The only small issue was the servers were stretched a bit thin so it was a while between her visits to the table. But she was very pleasant, friendly and professional. With 1/2 off appetizers and draft beer, it was an excellent value.“

“Wonderful experience and the food was delicious. Our waitress, McKenzie, was delightful and most helpful in giving us input on selection choices. We enjoyed the patio and our whole first experience here. Definitely will return.“

“The best of the best. You won’t be disappointed.“

“so the waiter was really sweet & very attentive I believe his name was Malik!! my friend & I saw him tend to several tables with a smile on his face. the food was so good. I had the vegetarian omelette. the drinks are really good too! if you want to try something new, I would recommend!! 🫶“

“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!“

“I have had brunch and lunch there several times…always amazing! My family and I had dinner this evening and we were so impressed…a wonderful restaurant that you must try!“

“Second time trying this place. Fresh ingredients, healthy choices, sizeable portions and all at a great value. The interior of the restaurant is very clean and the atmosphere is casual and inviting. On top of the great menu , the friendly and knowledgeable staff will leave you knowing this place hits the spot next time you are wanting a change from another generic salad.“
