If you have the opportunity to dine at this incredible establishment, don't walk... RUN in the door! Don't ask for a menu! Let the staff take you on a culinary adventure! You definitely will not regret the decision, not one bit!“

“Best in town , cheap drinks great food great service fun people“

“So much fun! Glad we had reservations so we had actual seats. I would hate to stand all night. Our server, Alexis, was phenomenal! Friendly, attentive, and when we asked for napkins bc of the condensation from our glasses causing our table to be wet, she went a step further and came back with a wet rag and cleaned our whole table!“

“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.“

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

“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!“

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

“My name is Vincent Tata. I stand by this establishment as a staple of Columbus. It’s open late, well priced and equipped with a quality draft selection. The food is more than the price and the service makes you feel at home. It’s a place I rest my weary dogs at night and a place I have a hearty lunch to continue the day. Rain or shine, press grill provides a home. God bless this house and its people.“

“Stopped in for happy hour-ordered the KFC bites, fried green tomatoes, and deviled eggs. All 3 were fantastic! The entrees were delicious and the cocktails were incredible! Service was also top tier!“

“This was my first time going to Townhall. I’ve been wanting to go there for quite some time because I have a lot of food allergies it was beyond my expectations! The food was outstanding the service impeccable and I’m so excited to bring my Special Needs son who also has allergies back down. Lilly was our server and she answered my many questions and was extremely attentive and very knowledgeable. we’re very much looking forward to coming back.“

“Great food and very friendly staff. The prices are good and the portions are large, I always bring something home. The coffee is good and hot, and I love the different mugs they have.“

“The sweet potato crockpot.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Recommended by a friend. Excellent food, not your average bar, these guys understand food!“

“My husband and I really enjoy eating at rusty bucket! Food was great.. Customer service was amazing! We've been definitely go back and recommend. Thanks“

“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!“

“Fun atmosphere! Go Irish ☘️“

“My god these are THE BEST fries I've ever had. The shrimp and ribeye philly was also just fantastic. I got the heavy steak seasoning and i think it made the steak a little too salty but other than that this place is one of the best here in Columbus.“

“This is one of my very favorite restaurants. Everything my husband and I ordered last night was absolutely delicious: salmon with couscous salad side, BBQ ribs with fries and slaw, an extra side of tomato/feta salad, and carrot cake for dessert. I never thought I could eat ribs without getting messy so it was a bonus to be able to eat them without ever picking them up! They were thick and saucy without being sloppy. The sauce (house made, I was told) was sticky and coated nicely and there was a lot of meat on each bone. They were so tender that I could simply run my fork over them to eat. The slaw was different than I've ever had - not sweet but a lot of flavor without being too savory. I never go to Hudson 29 without ordering the tomato/feta side - this time is was our appetizer. We've dined here numerous times and I've never received anything I didn't like. If you like french dip sandwiches, theirs is scrumptious. It was a difficult to order something new this trip but I'm so glad I did. I think I found my new favorite meal - the BBQ ribs. We were celebrating our anniversary and our carrot cake was served with a chocolate Happy Anniversary sign on top. The wait staff was very pleasant and attentive as well. If I had any TINY wish, it would be that the restaurant wasn't quite so noisy. It can be difficult to have a conversation and hear over the noise. Eat at Hudson 29 - you won't regret it!“

“🍷 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“

“The patio dining is picturesque, check my photos. This place beats everyone in the entire area; Service, food quality, the daily fish specials, and drinks are marvelous. The smoked salmon dip is bomb, and you’ve never had a deviled egg as good as theirs- no joke. Unbelievable.“

“came for my cake day breakfast... we went the the Grandview location... baby... I love the diversity in the building... I love the waitress we got... the food was great... I did a video food review on my pages.. id you would like to view and watch what we order. how it was presented and the taste... 10/10... gotta bring my mom and sister next time...“

“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.“

“excellent food. amazing breakfast and service!“

“the food was amazing, and the service was top notch. try the fried b&b pickles“

“Great pricing. Great food portions. Amazing specials. Wednesday is a great day to visit. Great staff. Great owners. Fun environment“

“​We made a road trip pit stop at this Culver's in Columbus and were very impressed with the service. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. We ordered the double deluxe burger and the North Atlantic Cod Sandwich. The burger was excellent—juicy and perfectly cooked. The fish sandwich was also very tasty, though I found the bun a little on the thick side. Overall, both dishes were delicious and satisfying. Given the great experience, we'd absolutely stop here again on our travels and try out some of the other menu items. Highly recommend.“

“I stopped in while back in town for Christmas. I had a great smash burger, fries, and cheese curds. All were great. The sauces were all homemade and great as well. Everyone was friendly and very attentive. I highly recommend Ash & Em in Hilliard.“

“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.“

“We enjoyed their informal Wednesday aftrnoon Bluegrass music. I put some photos at:“

“Awesome survive, quick on getting food out. Refills are quick too. The one thing I wasn’t a fan of too much was the paper straws. I still do recommend! 🤍🤍🤍“

“Love the food here and if that wasn't good enough the people there are so kind and thoughtful!!! I don't remember the waitresses name but honestly everyone we interacted with was kind and thoughtful and made you feel right are home!!!“

“Solid place. Brunch was very good. Mimosa, fresh OJ, and smoothie bowl were good starters.
Deluxe biscuits and gravy with scrambled eggs was quite a different take, but a bit spicy and tasty.
Deluxe egg sandwich was solid choice but a bit more plain and standard. Sunrise burrito with pork sausage was very good and definitely a whole meal in one wrapper.
Counter service with table delivery. Newer decor and friendly staff to go with the great food. Inside or outdoor dining options.
We will be back.“

“Fabulous food, great service!“

“they could put their salad dressing on a brick and i’d still eat it. north star is my favorite restaurant but there is something so special about this SPECIFIC location. it’s mine & my boyfriend’s favorite place ever. he loves the steak and it’s perfect EVERY TIME. I LOVE YOU NORTHSTAR“

“Love your burgers and cheese Sticks!“

“Have been wanting to try this place forever and finally made it in today with my best friend, what a disappointment. Their posted hours show open till 2:30 pm, we arrived at 1:50 (plenty of time for some pancakes and coffee.) The weight staff was in full on cleanup mode and made it Very obvious they were done working for the day with the way we were greeted. I ordered decaf coffee and was told there was none left so decided to have regular and then didn't even get a full cup of that. At $4.99 a pop I need a full cup. I looked at my friend and said "they don't want to wait on us they are annoyed that they are already cleaning up and we came in" she agreed so when the server came back I politely said "we will just elsewhere we can tell you're cleaning up for the day" There was no "oh you are fine, you still have 40 minutes" or anything like that there just " are you sure?" We left and headed down the street to Delaney's Diner who would also be closing in about an hour at 3 PM but a TOTALLY different vibe. Greeted with a smile from the person at the hostess stand and 2 of the chefs even looked over and smiled and said welcome come on in! We looked at each other and said much better, we are definitely in the right place now. I've heard nothing but good things about the pancakes at the Pancake House I only wish I would have got to experience them But being treated well is more important to me than food. I understand wanting to be done work for the day believe me but it wasn't like we walked in with 3 minutes till closing. Oh well 🤷‍♀️“

“Imagine my surprise and delight when I looked for a restaurant, near my hotel in Columbus, Ohio this evening, and found SOW! SŌW Plated was founded by people who wanted to demonstrate that brain healthy and mood supportive food could also be delicious. We had a wonderful conversation with one of the owners who is interested in what I am doing with both the Academy for Addiction and Mental Health Nutrition and Eating Protein Saves Lives. We then had an amazing dinner 🙂. Hopefully, we will find a way to collaborate.“

“Oh my Dearest Wow!! Outstanding service!! Great Pizza!! Our Annual Christmas Party was a HULK SMASHING GREAT TIME AS ALWAYS!! THANK YOU.“

“Excellent from start to finish“

“spacious rooms, nice shower, neat and clean hotel and all right in the middle of tons of shopping.“

“FOOD WAS HOT! THE FRIED ORANGE ROUGHY WAS PERFECT ALONG WITH THE SEASONING. 1000000000 WILL COME BACK. DEFINITELY WORTH THE DRIVE“
