“While shooting a segment for the show Out n About Columbus, the owner Colin and the chef Marja took us through a gastronomic journey that left every one of the crew dumbstruck from the flavor and creativity in the dishes that were offered to us today! 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!“

“I took my 22-year-old son to the meadery for his birthday. Not only did we get special tastings we got the history and knowledge of how this small business came to be. Our bartender was incredibly knowledgeable, had a very inviting personality and to top it all off he makes amazing mead!!! Be careful everyone it's got more alcohol content than I'm used to and it's crap up on me pretty quick LOL!!!!“

“Great wine shop! Patio for warmer weather and free parking!! Wine tastings on Thursday’s. Nice and friendly staff. Super knowledgeable.“

“most amazing restaurant in Columbus“

“Wednesday wine tasting - nice!“

“simply the best plant based restaurant in the country and probably the world. This is the spot my wife and I go for all of our special occasions even though we live in Indianapolis.“

“This is an excellent boutique bar. Their specialty drinks are delicious, and their bar staff are friendly and helpful. They also usually have great selections of various films and anime playing on the tvs. This is usually the first stop on our nights our when my partner and I have a night out in Columbus and we usually end up returning again throughout the night.“

“Why we loved Gene's: Creative, delectable cuisine; an inventive array of wines and cocktails; friendly, expert sommelier and wait staff; cozy, northern California vibe; and well paced courses. Bottom line, we loved everything about Gene’s.

And one more thing - the owner personally followed-up on our experience. I can honestly say that has never happened to me before.

Gene's is unique in every way - front and back of house and most definitely at the table. You should absolutely add this soon to your collection of culinary experiences.“

“Everything was top notch! Excellent experience.“

“🌿 Hillgarten Brewery – Hilliard’s Hidden Gem 🌿7.6 out of 10! What a beautiful surprise tucked away in Hilliard! Hillgarten’s expansive outdoor space was hands down the highlight of the night. With wide-open seating, tree-covered areas, and cozy hanging lights, the vibe was equal parts romantic and relaxed. 💫 The beer selection? Exactly what you want in a neighborhood brewery—a perfect variety of drinkable, staple brews that suit all tastes. On a hot summer evening though, I would’ve loved to see a frosted glass option—the beer warmed up a little too fast for my liking. We ordered the giant pretzel, which definitely delivered on size! The beer cheese was decent, but we were hoping for a bit more creativity or a “mystery dip” option to spice it up. Also… just give us one good cup of cheese with it instead of making everyone upgrade for a second portion. Small thing, but it stood out. As the sun set, the whole place started to feel like something out of a movie. Couples celebrating engagements, friends laughing over cornhole in the corner, and a casual, easy energy. The only thing missing? Some live music, especially for a Saturday night. 🎶 We found ourselves lost in conversation… time honestly stood still. It felt both lively and private, which is a rare combo these days. If I had one other piece of feedback, it’d be for a slightly bigger food menu and maybe a kiddo cut-off time around 7 PM, just so the evening crowd can fully settle into adult mode. All in all… a gem of a night we won’t forget anytime soon. ❤️🍻 #HillgartenHilliard #OhioBreweries #HilliardOhio #CraftBeerLovers #LocalBreweryVibes #SupportLocal #BreweryLife #RomanticNights #OutdoorBeerGarden #ColumbusEats #614Foodies #HiddenGem #BeerAndPretzels #SaturdayNightVibes #CraftBeerScene #HilliardEats #DrinkLocal #OhioBeerTrail #WeekendWanderings“

“Such a wonderful treat! We celebrated friendship and mostly my husband's upcoming retirement at the end of this year. Patrick was AWESOME super cool server and truly made the experience - our first one here - amazing. Cannot wait to return and a huge thanks for all of Patrick's professionalism, energy, seamless way he made a connection with each of us. Great dinner out and we'll def be back!“

“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.“

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

“Chicken and Waffles were delicious!“

“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.“

“Fine Italian dining, with an excellent, reasonably priced menu and gracious owners, Rick and Jackie. They have been a consistently high quality venue in Grandview Heights for 22 years!“

“Just had their newest addition to the high quality menu. The generous portion could easily be a shareable for two or a great lunch tomorrow. Extremely tasty with the right balance of crumbles and b’fflo sauce. Great w/seasoned fries or house chips. Make sure to have a pint of the Kroenburg 1664 pints to wash it down. Oh and BTW, it’s a great deal. Won’t disappoint your palllet or your wallet! Enjoy.“

“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!“

“Love this place. Would def recommend.“

“Love the bloody Mary’s with bacon“

“Love Grain + Grape! Great local shop with friendly, knowledgeable staff. Nice selection of craft beers and wine. My favorite place to pick up a bottle or two for the weekend.“

“A really cute spot we just stumbled up a few months ago and just recently went back. They make some really awesome cocktails and have pretty much all the classics you would expect along with a solid selection of beer. Honestly its just a hella cute bar, nice little patio with a fire pit and really awesome inside with exposed bricks and a lot of plants and retro decor everywhere. Wish I found this spot sooner!“

“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.“

“We were initially not thrilled when Aab became Khaab - there were some growing pains during the transition and they fell off our radar for a while. But things are back to working like clockwork now - food is flavorful and plentiful, particularly the amazingly priced combo platters. The dine in the experience can be slightly chaotic with huge numbers of delivery pickup people packing the bar area, but as a reliable place with something for everyone, it’s one of the best in Bexley.“

“Our server, Alix, was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and seemed to answer our questions before we thought of them. She is a credit to the restaurant. Our meals were well prepared and tasty. I had pasta and clam special and was very pleased. My partner enjoyed his carbonara and his side order of meatballs. I did think the ceasar salad was overdressed. In addition, the side order of bread, while delicious, should always be accompanied by olive oil (we had to request).“

“Giovani, Carlie, & Nick all took great care of me at the bar, my first time visiting, was able to sample the focaccia bread with evoo & fresh herbs, the potato’s with Parmesan foam, & the Funghi dish with fiocchi pasta & fresh mushrooms & an amazing white white lemon cream sauce. Also had a great wine selection of all great Italian imports. They hand make all of the pasta with imported Italian flour. Place was very clean & accommodating.“

“Our first time, a very pleasant experience. Not only the staff was friendly but so were the customers. Very friendly and delicious experience. We will totally go back and we have shared our experience with friends and neighbors. Highly recommend!!“

“My husband & I had the privilege of dining at Z Cucina in Dublin on Valentine’s Day. The concierge’s at the front were wonderful, and our most pleasant experience was not only they food, but our wonderful waiter, Benjamin. He is such a great host at one’s table, but has an expert knowledge of the menu. I will request him again!“

“MOUTHWATERING. HOMEMADE AND AUTHENTIC. HIGHLY RECOMMEND“

“Wow!! This was such an incredible experience! Hands down, the food and atmosphere were perfect. The wine shelves and antique decor made for a nice, comfy space. They had wine flights at a reasonable price so you can taste before deciding on a whole bottle. We ordered a variety of items from the menu, including the mushroom bruschetta, sliders, blank + blank (pick 2 lunch), short rib, and bread pudding- ALL delicious!! Even with these other factors, the thing that really topped off our experience was the service. Jessica was the nicest, most efficient server we’ve ever had!! Definitely will be back on our next trip to Columbus!“

“Best food and service! So glad they are back.“

“Great food. The service is impeccable.“

“Great food and atmosphere!…Try the Chef’s Specials“

“Love this place. Would def recommend.“

“My husband and I recently visited Dos Hermanos (in Easton) for our weekly date night, and let me tell you, it was hands down the best Mexican food I’ve had in a long, long time. After living in Columbus for over 3 years (and searching high & low), I had come to the sad conclusion that there were no good authentic Mexican restaurants in thus city — that was, until I stepped foot into Dos Hermanos. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with hot chips and fresh, flavorful salsa that set the tone for the rest of our meal. The menu features a wide range of authentic Mexican dishes at reasonable prices. My husband and I tried the queso blanco, street tacos, Birria tacos, and churros. Each dish was flavourful, hot, and super fresh. My personal favorite were the Birria tacos — every bite was packed with the right balance of spices and tenderness. I am very picky when it comes to restaurants, especially Mexican, and let me tell you; if you like flavor (not just salt…), this is the place for you! The food wasn’t all that impressed us — the wait staff was equally fantastic. Our waitress, Megan, was an absolute superstar. She was attentive, friendly, and made our experience very enjoyable. The restaurant was clean, and well staffed— a true hidden gem. After our first visit, we couldn’t resist going back again (only 2 weeks later), and I’m happy to report that the experience was just as perfect as before. No doubt about it, Dos Hermanos deserves a solid 5 out of 5 stars. My search for a fantastic Mexican restaurant in Columbus is officially over! If you also have been tirelessly searching for a truly good Mexican restaurant, this is the place!“

“Walking Franklin Street in Twickenham, I kept counting Greek Revival porticoes instead of watching for cars. The Weeden House was the only interior open that morning, a short walk through parlor and studio, and the rest of the district is brick sidewalks and people watering ferns on their galleries.“
