50 Best American Restaurants near Lewis Center

“First time at O'Nelly's and what an amazing find!This pub has everything you want in a local spot - great music that sets the perfect mood and an atmosphere that just feels right. From the moment we walked in, I knew this was going to be a good place to spend time. The whole vibe is welcoming and comfortable, exactly what you hope for when discovering a new pub near home.“

“It was just opened so super busy, granted, well deserved. Every first watch I have ever been to has been perfect, never had a bad experience. The toast keeps me coming back, but that market skillet makes me never want to leave. Our server knocked it out of the park too!“

“The food and service at this Bob Evans in Lewis center was very good. Jose was a good server!“

“Natalie is amazing. The service she provides is always very kind and she’s always happy. The food is great too!!“

“Ordered 4 hot dogs, no onion, a fry, and a drink. The server didn't write anything down, and all 4 hot dogs came to us with onion, so they had to be sent back. It looked like lunch rush hit hard, but we were in and out quickly to continue our day. The food was delicious.“

“Ranchero Tots were top notch!“

“Had our birthday dinner last night with 18 people and we were treated like royalty!!! Got a reservation no problem. We sat outside and it was going to begin storming so they closed the canopy around us. They turned on fun twinkly lights, swept up. Most importantly, when it began raining so hard, we couldn’t hear and it started to come through the canopy, they didn’t care at all that we took our large group inside!!!! Most of all, there are not enough words to say about our waitress, Robin. The best service we have EVER had anywhere. She treated everyone like family, no one ever waited for a thing!!! Not for food, not water, not drinks, not napkins, not anything. No one even had issues with their bills even though this large group was all separate and moved all over the place. Everyone in our group expressed how amazing she was and how not a thing went wrong or unnoticed or not taken care of. She is a wonderful person and a master of her job. Thank you Robin and the rest of the staff!!!“

“The show here was incredible. Ivy (burlesque dancer) was stunning with her performances. Alexis (cocktail waitress) was amazing at taking care of us. She was super attentive to our drink needs and our overall vibe. Our bachelorette party was more enjoyable due to her attention to our table. Highly recommend!!“

“Great portions for a decent price with excellent caring servers!“

“The house salad dressing is one of the most delicious things I’ve ever had. I reeaallyy need the recipe for it. I live in TX and likely won’t wind up in Columbus again so… just think about it lol. The coconut shrimp were so good and our service was really great.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Re. the Grandview location - Great food. But, building is just fair. It is freezing in there this time of year (late Fall/Winter). With the high ceilings, any heat never makes it to the patrons inside (please learn to use your ceiling fans to help with this). Also, having doors that open straight to the outside doesn't help. Each time they are opened, it is a blast of cold air for half the establishment.“

“The best around! My go to Greek!“

“Absolutely Amazing! Everything we tried was presented so nice!! Loaded with flavor & fresh ingredients !!! Would definitely recommend!!! Total 10!!!❤️“

“I enjoyed a lovely afternoon brunch with my father this afternoon. We agreed that our experience was so enjoyable because of our amazing server Grace. I am constantly dreaming about the deviled eggs and the chocolate cake, you don’t want to miss out! Grace was very detailed oriented and very cautious about my severe tree nut allergy which made feel at ease. I already can’t wait to go back and Grace will be my preferred server no question!“

“the food was all fresh, and the fish sandwich was amazing 😁“

“Delicious food and amazing service by Ben!!!! Highly recommend.“

“Had a great meal. They do a good job of elevating things to better versions. Was kind of skeptical of bread as being something you pay separately for but ordered it anyway and it was a generous number of really good rolls with seasoned butter. Got beignets for dessert and figured fried dough would be good but nothing special and those were elevated too. Our salads and entrees were great too.“

“Man oh man I just wish the service was consistent here unfortunately it's not. It's so up and down, good and bad. Dinning room service vs patio/bar service is like night in day. Anyway Tori my waitress tonight was absolutely fantastic! She very sweet, patient and knowledgeable about the menu. I came in for a quick happy hour; ordered Dirty bird, shrimp and burgers. Drinks and food was correct and in a timely manner. I plan to return for patio/var area. Thank you Tori for the wonderful service tonight, you made it memorable.“

“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.“

“Love going to the Lazy C and eating from their fine pub menu which is extremely good. I've had everything on the menu a few times and have never been disappointed! Come for the food and always stay for the live music!! All the bartenders who double as wait staff do amazing as well... never leave hungry or thirsty!!“

“Fantastic food, great service, fabulous wine selection. It’s definitely in our date night rotation.“

“Stopped on our way home from Polaris. One of the best burgers I've eaten. Service was amazing, and the atmosphere is great!“

“We come to this location every month for a professionals luncheon in their event space upstairs. The team takes such amazing care of us. James is extremely accommodating and always communicates back quickly. Stew always checks in after our lunches to make sure the service was good. Giovanni takes such good care of us, always patient and kind, always in a good mood. He makes it such a good experience for us. The food is always hot and fresh, and it is always good. Highly recommend for just casual dining or if you have an event. You won’t be disappointed!“

“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.“

“Wow. I wish they were in Cincinnati!! Great food choices, taste, presentation and prices. The oatmeal, of all things, was delicious! I want to learn to make it that way at home. The bean burger was excellent. Staff friendly, fast and professional.“

“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 🤷‍♀️“

“I have been to Morgan House many times during the Christmas holiday season. This was the first time I had been there without Christmas trees and Christmas decorations everywhere.
It was so nice to Walk around and look through the entire store without it being intensely crowded. It was equally as nice to have a conversation over lunch without trying to out. Talk everyone else.
Don’t get me wrong. I will be back for the Christmas holiday season.
But my biggest question is, where do you hide all the Christmas stuff the rest of the year! 😂😂😂“

“Great tasting food. Small town vibe. Personable staff.“

“Amazing appearance of restaurant very clean and welcoming. The food was outstanding and my server Amira did an excellent job! All the staff did a great job always walking around with smiles on greeting guest as they walked in. I would also like to single out kayley for her great attitude and personality!“

“Love your burgers and cheese Sticks!“

“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! 🤍🤍🤍“

“I have had brunch and lunch there several times…always amazing! My family and I had dinner this evening and we were so impressed…a wonderful restaurant that you must try!“

“Absolutely Enjoy every breakfast meal. My favorite is the Cheesy grits“

“Really enjoyed our Saturday night dinner celebration for 9 of us celebrating my grandson’s UC graduation. From the appetizers to the desserts, the food was outstanding! The short ribs special was very good and we all agreed that the bay scallops and shrimp risotto is an outstanding dish! The entire staff is very friendly and for a busy Saturday night, we enjoyed excellent service! Highly recommend this lovely restaurant in downtown. Go a little ahead of reservation…downtown parking is somewhat limited. Thanks for a terrific celebration, Whitney House!“

“First time dining here. Wanted to take my wife somewhere special for a night away that we don't get often. We were not disappointed. Nicholas was our server and he did a wonderful job. Very informative on menu and very kind. Food was delicious! Will be back for sure.“

“First time dining here. Enjoyed a late Saturday lunch with friends. Great service with a smile, fresh and tasty food. Will be back.“

“We love to see more organic restaurants in the area. The only downside is that they don't accept cash which is strange and excludes some potential customers.“

“5 Star Review!! Sam L Was The Best Server Ever!! Great Food, Cold Drinks, & Great Ticket Times!! Will Def Be A Repeat Customer!! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I would highly recommend this place it always has fire delicious good food whenever we come everything is so good and fresh. Also with a wonderful staff each time my family & I visit. DJ Myke & Rachel. & one other guy I don’t remember his name but has the leprechaun red beard lol everyone is so helpful & friendly. Thanks for the lovely experience!!“

“Had the new Summer Chicken. Could not have been better! My wife had the trout and she felt the same way!“

“great waitresses n waiters. Great food n always friendly service. Definitely recommend this place to everyone.“

“Hands Down, some of the BEST food I have had since I moved to Columbus, Fries are cut fresh, Wings are HUGE, Those fried ribs are making me drool just thinking about them...... I've worked with Steve now for the last couple of years, he's an honest businessman, he is family oriented, and he always puts the customer first. Keep up the amazing work brother!“

“Absolute perfection across the board. The steak was the best I've had in ages and absolutely melted in my mouth. And the carrot cake was beyond amazing. I would gladly take a whole sheetcake sized pan of the carrot cake. The deviled eggs were also amazing. 15/10“

“Food was spectacular, staff was super friendly, lots of food for the cost. Highly recommend.“

“Amazing food It was beautiful to eat at the fantastic Tasty Hands“

“Our first dining experience at this restaurant and we will return. Khi our server made certain we were comfortable, explained the menu and specials. Was friendly and polite. Perfect. Camerons Old Fashion and Smokey Margaritas were delightful. The short ribs were tender, deep in flavor, enjoyed the horseradish puree (more horseradish would make it perfect). The duck breast had well seared skin, was perfectly tender, and a enjoyable depth of flavor. The sauce gravy was excellent. I highly recommend the lamb meatballs as an appetizer. Soak up the remaining sauce with the bread. Excellent. The pineapple upside down cake was a pleasant dessert surprise and delicious.“

“Cheeseburger and Fries was so amazing! ❤️ Would like to be back again sometimes!“
