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!“

“Visited Columbus for the first time and stumbled into an amazing restaurant that truly sets the bar for what ethos restaurants should operate from- no seed oils, quality water and everything cooked in beef tallow. For a health conscious restaurant their prices are beyond reasonable with something on the menu for anyone who’s looking to expand their horizons of healthy eating.

Our server Katie was exceptional- so so kind, knowledgeable about the menu and carried a smile on her face the entire service. The GM even made it a point to comp our wellness shots we ordered since we were visiting. Truly made our experience! Thank you katie! ❤“

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

“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!“

“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.“

“Incredibly nice Breakfast Eatery with friendly customer Service, and an amazing variety of food options. I highly recommend!“

“This place never disappoints. We sampled a few cocktails, and every one of them was smooth, refreshing, and well made. The service really stood out—everyone was welcoming, attentive, and happy to help with anything we needed. The space has a clean, stylish look that feels both modern and relaxing. It’s the kind of restaurant where you can enjoy good drinks, great hospitality, and a comfortable atmosphere all in one visit.“

“One of the best dining experiences we have had in some time. We ordered the NY strip and a slice of their homemade pie. Every single thing we ate was delicious. Service was amazingly friendly. Best option in the area, by far. The steak here was a million times better than the steak down the street at FYR and was probably 30-40% less expensive.“

“🍷 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“

“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.“

“My friends, believe me when I say that the Chicken and Avocado Sandwich at this Cafe was one of the best I've ever had. I CRUSHED that sandwich like it was my last meal on the face of this earth. My husband had the cheeseburger and fries. He (rudely) didn't let me have a bite of the burger, but he said the flavor was fantastic. I did steal his fries, though, and they were crispy and delicious. We both got gluten free buns, with low expectations, but the buns were great, too! 10 out of 10, no notes. I'm already lobbying hard to come back tomorrow for lunch.“

“Forgive my photo; I'm not a photographer! 🤣 Holy cow, this food is incredible!!! I went today for the Monday Smash Burger Special for $13.50 which included a single smash burger, a huge basket of homemade fries, and a water! The smash burger and fries were both extremely fresh and blazing hot. The smash burger was SO delicious, beefy, and cheesy, and the bun was perfection. The fries were homemade; I watched the cooks cut whole potatoes and fry them up. Everything was so mouth-watering! 10/10 for food; I will definitely visit again. I didn't get to meet Josh, but I had a really great conversation with Zay!“

“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 sweet potato crockpot.“

“Just ate dinner here at the Culver's off Renner Rd. in Hillard. Our food came out quickly and hot. It was delicious. The person who took our order was quick, friendly and, polite. The restaurant was very clean and the dining room was staffed with someone who walked around cleaning tables as soon as someone left. We'll eat here again!“

The owner is super genuine and extremely nice I’ve been here enough times where I feel like I need to leave a review because the service The food in the atmosphere is unlike any other family business I’ve ever been to This place is hands-down, the best If you haven’t tried, I think it’s your time to!!“

“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 had a lovely dinner with friends here. The place was lively & busy on a Friday evening. The service was Excellent!! They have a nice wine list with selections for many tastes, by the glass or bottle. We had the Cheese Stuffed Butter Rolls as an appetizer for the table which were only ok for me, everyone else liked them. We all really loved our House Specialties entrees. My Seared Scallops came with five perfectly cooked. The Pan Fried Fish, St Louis BBQ Ribs and Ribeye we're all so delicious. The Texas sheet cake for dessert was shared and very good also the espresso Martini to finish the meal was perfect. Family friendly and was a bit too loud at time although I loved the vibs and would love to visit again. We spent over $440w/tip for four people, apps, bottle of wine, drinks, entrees, and desserts.“

“We love Delaneys! They have great food and the staff is friendly !“

“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.“

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

“Love your burgers and cheese Sticks!“

“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.“

“Excellent from start to finish“

“I love Mexican food I recommend eating here. My family tried the beef and chicken birra enchiladas. We all loved it, even my three cats. 😋“

“James was our server this evening; he took the time to explain the menu and took concern with the fact that we were dining with a friend with celiac issues. He was knowledgeable and friendly, consistent and attentive without being over bearing. James alone made the evening perfect. The food was spectacular (as always) but James going above and beyond made the evening perfect for Brenda who; rarely, gets taken seriously in other restaurants. Please let him know that every time our friends come to Ohio we will make sure we dine with Him at Cameron's. Thank you again for an amazing evening.“
