“The menu is huge so I will definitely be back! I sat at the counter and I swear I had every server checking in on me! If you come frequently and sit at the counter, you can leave your own mug from home here 💕“

“Very best place to watch any sports game. New owners have completely renovated the place! Met friends for Ohio State Michigan game and it was wonderful! Wings are much better than other places! A+++“

“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“

“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.“

“Big bold flavors, friendly, casual service… this was an amazing experience!“

“most amazing restaurant in Columbus“

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

“We had the best home cooked diner food, wonderful FAST service, the prices are very reasonable and the portions are HUGE! Take a look at the Omelet we ordered, it filled the entire plate! You just can’t beat the Portside Cafe! they are so friendly, we felt like family on our first visit. We’ll definitely be back very soon!“

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

“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!! 🎄🖖🏻❤️🤍💙☃️❄️🌎🇺🇲“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“The Kitchen was amazing! We had our elopement celebration here this past Saturday and everyone was so professional and accommodating. The space is absolutely beautiful and the food was spectacular (my guests couldn’t stop raving about their mac and cheese bar and their ice cream).Chef Dusty is a genius! I’m so glad we were able to have the reception of our dreams here!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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 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.“

“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.“

“food and service were absolutely on par!“

“Bowling here is fantastic. If the lanes are full, they'll give you a free card for the arcade while you wait.

That's not even counting the generosity they'll show if something goes wrong with your lane. Free food and a time extension.

I can't think of a better place to bowl.“

“Ten Pin is a phenomenal venue. Even before the massive renovation, they were great for bowling. Now, the bowling is bigger and better. The arcade is nice, but could use a few more classic arcade games (in my opinion). The big shocker with Ten Pin is the food. Do not think this is bar or bowling alley food; I keep being wowed when I try different items each time. Talking to the staff, they said everything is scratch-made. It's all great!“

“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 .“

“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.“

“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!! 🫶“

“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.“

“The Lamb was really good. A little too spicy for me but still very good. We also liked the scallops. The cocktails were very refreshing and the desserts were delicious. We love the atmosphere as well.“

“Went here on a whim when we got hungry and a bunch of other places were closed. We had Becca as a server, and she was absolutely PHENOMENAL. Extremely attentive without being overbearing, positive without being fake, quick with refills and checking on us. And props to the cooks and bartenders, my drink was flawless and the food was seriously out of this world, I'm tempted to go back for the cheese curds alone. Zero complaints, can't recommend this place enough.“

“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!“

“Enjoyed the breakfast bowl today during the funday Sunday brunch with Jazz Music 🎶 at The Summit Music Hall. The brunch is fantastic, tasty, and a great reason to come out on a Sunday to order from Crunchwerks.“

“Amazing breakfast.“

“The jalapeño corn bread and honey butter is out of this world and the pork chop was insanely delicious and juicy! The mixed veggies were sadly over-seasoned with curry and were inedible. But the mashed potatoes made up for it and the bourbon Demi glace was the perfect gravy for both. The noise level was from the street and not the responsibility of the restaurant but was still an issue.“

“A friend and I stopped here for dinner before Impact Wrestling's TV tapings. They were able to find us a seat despite a festival of some kind going on, our food was ready very quickly, and it was both delicious and fairly priced!“
