New American Restaurants near Groveport, OH

“After taking our pet to the vet, we stopped into Birch Tavern for dinner. We sat on the patio since it was a nice day. The food was delivered fast and was delicious. The service was friendly, and the overall experience was good. My wife had the birch club sandwich, and I had the boneless chicken wings. They were comparable in size to Roosters. I enjoyed our experience there.“

“Service 4 out of 5, the waitress was the Only one working tables. Her service was actually really excellent even with running like crazy. She was also Darn Snazzy looking too😋

Restaurant and tables were actually Clean as was the restroom.

Food was fairly quick to arrive good“

“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 😜“

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

“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!“

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

“most amazing restaurant in Columbus“

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

“Had breakfast at Portside a few days ago. Total cost was around $13. I got an omelette with crumbled sausage which came with an order of toast. I also ordered a half order of biscuits and gravy. Everything was fantastic! And it was huge. We had a party of 11 guys and the service was amazing. This lady knew what she was doing! From what I could tell everyone was happy with their food. I saw people getting pancakes, omelettes, French toast, biscuits and gravy, etc. most of the bills were less than $10.“

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

“A group of friends and I had an amazing time at Denmark's Cocktail 101 class! Garry made the craft of cocktail-making fun and approachable, and had great recommendations and tips and tricks -- even for those in the group who like to think of themselves as cocktail aficionados!

Denmark is one of the best cocktail bars in Columbus, and experiencing a class here is a memorable experience! Highly recommend booking a class.“

“The best food and the best people“

“I've been to this location to enjoy dinner on multiple occasions. 85% of the time, the entire experience is fantastic, but my most recent experience left me wanting. Unfortunately, there were a number of issues tied to getting our bill correct, and then, adding insult to injury, I ended up going home with a considerable stomachache. Fortunately, it didn't end up being any worse than that, but let's just say I had some concerns on that drive. 😬 but besides that, the food was very tasty, came out quickly, and I believe was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone who comprised the party - being made up of eight people. That is another point: this location can accommodate larger groups as well as smaller groups. Also, I strongly recommend the chocolate chip cookie 🍪 , which I know couldn't have been the culprit of my stomachache, because I saved it to enjoy at a later time. In fact, the chocolate chip cookie is one of the primary reasons why I'm excited to go to Northstar whenever it comes up as a dining option! The homemade ginger ale and kombucha are favorites of mine, as well as the North Star Burger - and that is coming coming from somebody who is a meat-eater most of the time! Enjoy!“

“Great space! I was here for a company holiday party. Fresh ingredients, pasta, and a good selection of spirits and drinks. Fun idea with the cooking competition (sauce boss). Didn’t hurt that my team won as well! Great service and knowledgeable staff to guide even the most inexperienced of cooks. Highly recommend!“

“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.“

“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.“

“Perfect evening. Food was amazing and the wait staff went above and beyond. Recommend and early-ish reservation on a Friday Saturday evening as the Short North becomes busy, loud. Perfect restaurant for an early dinner before evening activities. Thank you Guild House.“

“First and foremost, I’d like to thank Simon the bartender for making my first time at The Pearl an experience. Words can’t describe how great of a host he was. Simon recommended nothin but best drinks and food. He didn’t miss. First was N’Awlins Oysters were phenomenal and the Hanger Steak was out of this world! The pearl is a classic vibe with an upbeat aesthetic. If you’re thinking about going here, don’t second-guess it just go!!

Also, I’d like to thank Nick the manger for running such a fine establishment and taking his time out to talk to me about my experience.“

“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!!!“

“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 lunch spot- really reasonably priced, friendly service and great food! I’m glad we stopped in to try it“

“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.“

“My girlfriends and I come here once a month for breakfast before we go and play board games all day. First of all, the food could be terrible but we’d still come back because the wait staff is so personable and friendly. But the food is also always amazing so that is a perk! It doesn’t matter who our waiter is they all seem to meander over to say hi. Always so attentive and genuinely seem like they’re happy to be at work. I can’t wait until our next visit.“

“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.“

“One of my favorite spots!“

“Best gluten free crust ever. By a ton. Yum!“

“We were a party of 7. I booked online to make it easy and they could expect us. As expected when we arrived we were immediacy seated ( Saturday 4:30 reservation) Service was great. Food was great. We alerted server of a food allergy her and the rest of the kitchen team went out of their way to clean out the fryer and put in fresh oil so that my niece could have french fries. This was super thoughtful. When we went, it was not super busy, but it did pick up quickly and get loud in the restaurant - though it is a sports bar, - it DOES carry restaurant quality, and I would most definitely recommend. Our servers name was Aryanna- she was top notch!!!“

“Went for my first time for valentines day and the atmospere was dope. Food was good and service was onpoint. My wife got the special of the night drink and I got the burbon which was good. Will be going again for a date night. I got the barbecoa tacos for my dinner which was good. For an appetizer we got the guac and the stir fry shrimp which was delicious.“

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

“Great service, food was delicious. My new favorite jerk restaurant.“

“The best place to go for sports and good wings and pizza. The greatest service“

“Small place but fun! There's a pool table and karaoke on Fridays. The vibe is interesting, hard to pinpoint a "type" of patron that would frequent this place - which I really like. Pretty calm, clean, mature, and social, was the feeling I got. Could use more "saloon-themed" decor to match the name. Ample parking and convenient location. Would visit again!“

“I was visiting Columbus, Ohio and wanted a fun vibe, and Bernard’s Tavern delivered. The music was great and the food delicious. We shared the taquitos, the Cajun pasta, and the deep dish cookie dessert, all of which were amazing. I will definitely come back next time I am in town.“

“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 back for another great happy hour experience! As always the Brussel sprouts and spinach mushroom flatbread was great. Goat cheese crostini we'll skip next time. But the star of the show was the jalapeño corn bread! Just wow! Honey drizzle with some butter, so delicious I can't wait to order that again.“

“Great food and reasonably priced.“

“Miss Kay's is the best in the city right now. She makes it fresh to order & gives you your money's worth. I'm done with all these other dusty spots. it's only Miss Kay's for this family ♥️♥️✊🏾“

“Nice atmosphere but our server, Emily, was amazing. Very attentive! I left my purse at the table when we left and she ran out onto the sidewalk and flagged us down as we were driving away. Amazing customer service!! Thank you so much.“

“Great locally-owned eatery, perfect for a breakfast meeting, brunch, or hanging out for a great cup of coffee or tea. Menu is just right for a small establishment, not too many choices to decide but enough variety to meet most everyone's tastes.“

“We were looking for a special dinner that would accommodate our group. First of all, the drinks were phenomenal and innovative. Kudos to the chef for curating a vegan dish that was truly unique and incredibly delicious. Also, the service was above and beyond! David, Cassidy and Grace were all super accommodating and kind. Everyone in Columbus - this place is so worth the visit! Don’t miss out 💕

P.S. - the Oaxacan 75 is one of the most well-rounded cocktails I’ve ever had! Couldn’t recommend it more!“
