When we came in we were instantly greeted by the sweetest employee, Bella, she gave us great recommendations and guided us our way throughout the menu and restaurant. Fantastic service, and amazing food! The yellow rice bowl that was recommend to me was absolutely a 10/10. Will try again!“

Host is very attentive and quick to seat you, never have any issues with having to wait (could be luck perhaps, but have gone around different times with no issues). Food gets served quickly, always tastes fresh and delicious. Great atmosphere and servers are always polite and attentive as well. Highly recommend:) also, the patio is a vibe when it’s warm outside!“

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

“Our first time visiting and it was just what you'd expect from a small sports pub! They are a Dolphins backed bar, so there was a gathering of fans watching the game. The atmosphere was typical sports bar vibe. The food though... DELICIOUS.
💯 Sloppy fries (with parm garlic sauce)
💯 Kevin McCallister Pizza (cheese pizza just for me!)

If we lived in the area, we would definitely be regulars.“

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

“This is a great Skyline.

The food is always hot and fresh. I've only used their drive thru but the service is phenomenal. They're always kind and efficient. The outside is clean and well maintained. I also like the promotions they have posted around the building.“

“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!!!“

“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.“

“This was such a fun date night for my husband and I. We enjoyed some delicious cocktails, shared a pizza, and watched the burlesque show in the speakeasy upstairs. They are talented dancers and the live music was an awesome touch as well. I wasn't sure what to expect, but we had a really fun night together at this club and I would totally do it again! I want to come back with my adult daughters for the male review night.“

“We absolutely love coming in! Liquor selection is off of charts! Two floors and wall to wall liquor ranging from the mundane to the exotic! We've had just about everything on the menu and love it all! Genti Thank you for having such an amazing place like Opa's in Delaware!“

“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.“

“We had Culver’s ice cream catered at our wedding and I couldn’t recommend it enough! Nick Donahue, the GM of Powell, and his team were wonderful. Thank you, thank you! 5 ⭐️!!“

“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.“

“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!“

“The best and crunchiest pizza I have ever had! First time having it and it will definitely be number one on my list! The sub was loaded with meat and super good too!“

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

“We had to cut our experience last night short due to a change of plans but before we had to leave it was great. Great atmosphere, attentive staff, and amazing food. We had to get everything to go but even then 2 hours later the food still tasted great. If you are ever near the zoo this is a must try.“

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

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!

I haven’t been to the J. Alexander’s in Worthington in a few years, and wow — they reminded me exactly why this place used to be one of my favorites.

The ribs were fall-off-the-bone perfect. The meatballs were packed with flavor. The mac & cheese was creamy, rich, and downright comforting. But the real surprise of the night?

🔥 THE STEAK ROLLS. 🔥
Easily the best appetizer on the menu — flaky, crispy, flavorful, and flat-out addictive. One bite and I knew I’d been gone from this location way too long.

The service was smooth, the atmosphere was classy but relaxed, and the food was elite from top to bottom.“

“Always a great place to party!!! Best bands! 🤩“

“I ordered a 16 oz aged ribeye medium well with parmesean mashed potatoes and everything was cooked perfectly and I might add that the mashed potatoes tasted amazing and the ribeye was juicy and flavorful. I would definitely come here for special occasions like anniversaries, something personal with your significant other or family.“

“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 🤷‍♀️“

“Excellent food and great service at the Delaware location“

“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! 🤍🤍🤍“

“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!“

“Yummy food, nice personal, sometimes gets a little loud in there but nothing crazy
-I like their burgers and salats, and their fries are super good as well. You will have to order at the register by the front door they will give you a little light up thing to take to the table and the waiters will bring your order to your table. For a sweet treat after lunch or dinner get their carrot cake or any of their cookies super rich and yummy !!! fair price for quality food ! Definitely would recommend this place !“

“Love your burgers and cheese Sticks!“

“Excellent from start to finish“

“A lovely place for a day out - we were there on a weekday a bit after the noon rush and had the back dining area to ourselves - it was like a Christmas movie with nice music and decorations and wonderful food. The service was good, and the staff friendly. The gift shop is enormous - looking at it from the outside, I was amazed at how all those rooms fit in the building! It’s the usual variety of upscale tchotchkes you would find at a “country” type shop, but they do have some unique teas and dessert mixes. If you need a place to take your mom, aunt, etc. for lunch and shopping, this is perfect!“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Great visit. Food was good and our waitress April provided exceptional service.“

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

“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.“

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

“Wow. 10/10 recommend this restaurant. Our planned date night on the patio ended up being "to go" thanks to our little guy, but it was still absolutely delicious! We've been dying to eat at the Two One since following them on IG and drooling at their seasonal menu. So glad we finally did it. Great value for money, delicious meals, great menu- we will have to return to sit out on the patio overlooking the fountain and try one of their cocktails. Yum!“

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

“I ordered the beef stroganoff. It is very delicious. I probably should have taken a picture before I started digging into it LOL. Prices were fair and average. Additionally, this was a large serving so I was able to eat this twice. I typically go out to eat around 7:00 p.m. before my shift starts and then I save my leftovers for midnight lunch. It was delicious a second time as well. I highly recommend this place and I've also heard great things about the other food, especially the meatloaf. Definitely worth stopping in“

“great ribs and sauce. definitely would recommend and will be coming back. thank you“

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

“Visited the new 3 Brothers Diner in Powell on Thursday and it was fantastic. Staff was over the top nice and the worst part of the visit was deciding what to order because EVERYTHING looked delicious from the huevos rancheros (which I got and highly recommend) to a plate of nachos that could feed a small army to the breakfast burritos our group ordered they were all fantastic. Topped my huevos off with the best cantarita I've ever had. This is going to become a new regular place to come for sure. Such a varied menu --will take us a long time to try everything. Make sure to try out this new gem in Powell.“

“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!“

“Great service and a large menu.“
