Restaurants in Westerville

“Absolutely wonderful afternoon tea. Allison (sp??) was a wonderful server that was patient with all of us as this was our first time. Food was amazing. We will be returning again!”

“Food was great . Had spaghetti with meatballs and short rib ragu all I have to say is wow. David was very nice and had really nice suggestions and was new a lot about the wines we were interested in definitely will be back soon”

“Beautiful atmosphere. Jessica was a super friendly, timely and attentive waiter. Had six totally different dishes and each was hot and delicious. Particularly loved the stromboli w/spicy sausage, seared shrimp in Alfredo, the (light) calamari and delicate gnocchi.”

“The staff are great and kind and accommodating. The food is amazing here no matter what you order. And I go here almost weekly. I fully recommend this location to everyone. It's the best authentic Mexican restaurant in all of Columbus. I've been to almost every Mexican restaurant in Columbus and none come close to this one in terms of quality food and authentic Mexican food.”

“Great staff, always friendly. Best patio in Westerville.”

“We held my daughters college graduation party here. I cannot say enough good things about this establishment. The staff is amazing and helpful. The party room is large and has a pool table and pinball machines. There is a small patio off the party room. My guests loved that they could walk out into the tap room and grab a beer. Thanks Grizzlybird for your kindness and hospitality.”

“Had a great experience the food was great and everyone was friendly”

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

“Went with wife and grandkids. Very nice place. Waiters were very nice and helpful. Some of best Chinese food I’ve had. Would definitely recommend to anyone.”

“Review is not a recommendation-just our experience. Waiter was friendly. Food was decent but not hot. We were there for Sunday brunch-not many customers so not sure why our food wasn’t hot. Our main concern was the cleanliness. The pictures on the wall had a lot of dirt and food splatters that seem to have been there a while. Perhaps a monthly deep clean would help. (Floor and tables were clean) It wasn’t the experience I read about on their website though.”

“Got a table at lunchtime, decent crowd but stilll quiet enough to chat. Food was excellent, wait staff was plesant and attentive. Great experience, ill be going again soon!”

“This place is fantastic. The wines are wonderful and the owner is the friendliest person you will ever meet. She makes all of the wines herself and pours her heart into the business.”

“Exceptionally professional, clean, relaxing atmosphere. My friend and I both ordered the cashew chicken, and it was delicious! The portions are huge, more than enough for 2-3 smaller meals. And the prices are very reasonable. I already can't wait to go back to try something else from their menu!”

“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!”

“Great food, friendly people! Very fun!”

“The atmosphere and food were both incredible. The live music was a great added bonus”

“Highest quality coffee in Columbus,”

“Always a good place. Many a delightful time with a great selection of food. Ice tea is quite good. On this visit we were surprised that desert is $8.50 a serving.

Will continue to eat there but limit desert purchases. Of note for those of you who like to order food to go the do a brisk business in such orders. During our in restaurant time there were 14 pickups.”

“Was told to come try out the amazing food here so we decided to make the trip down. Cannot say anything negative at all about the experience. Food was amazing! I got the chik’n pasta and my husband got the Philly and fries. Food was made to order and very fresh. My pasta was so good that my husband raved about it the whole time there and after. Clayton is the owner and chef and was very personable with everyone ensuring their food and service was good. He took his time explaining things to us and it’s very obvious how passionate he is about his food. Before we left he insisted we try a sample of his soup and corn bread. WOW!! Definitey will be back for more!”

“The donuts and rolls are great and they recognize my hubby as a regular!”

“My husband and I stopped in yesterday for lunch and was able to see all of the Smashburger workers band together and fill a to-go order for 196 people. They did an amazing job. Would 100% recommend Westerville Smashburger.....with these people, you won't be disappointed! 😊”

“Really good ice cream and very friendly staff. Cant wait to try the other flavors.”

“So far I've had a banana cream pie and peach pie, as well as a chicken pot pie.
Both desert pies were excellent. Instead of the typical coin slices of bananas you typically see in a banana cream, this had long, thick slices of banana, ensuring plenty of just the right amount of ripeness. The cream was light, fluffy and flavorful.
The peach pie was loaded with ripe, but not mushy, peaches in a filling that was sweet, but not overwhelming. The crust was crisp and flakes with no hint of a soggy bottom.
The chicken pot pie had plenty of nice chunks of chicken and plenty of vegetables in a thick, but not pasty, gravy.
The only issue I had was that the bake time for the pot pie was insufficient for my oven. While the top crust was a little browned, the bottom and sides crust was just raw dough.
I did buy another pot pie and will try to adjust my baking time to see.if I can get it right.
Service was wonderful. Both times that I've been in, the employees were pleasant and friendly.
I will definitely be trying out their other pies in the future.”

“Absolutely delicious food stopped in for lunch today and was pleasantly surprised and the portions and a amazing flavor. All staff was incredibly friendly will 100% be stopping back by in the future.”

“The best gelato I have had! Great atmosphere and always so friendly.”

“Visited Delaney's in Grandview with a friend for breakfast , first time for both of us. Very pleased with atmosphere, service and quality of food. I highly recommend stopping in, plan to do so again.”

“My boyfriend and I drove all the way from Pittsburgh to try out Chicken Salad Chick (as we do not have one in PA), and it absolutely exceeded our expectations. Food was great and staff were extraordinarily friendly! Definitely would recommend the grape and pasta salads, as well as the Jalapeño Holly and Southwest Señorita!”

“Best pizza I have ever had”

“My wife and I just went here on a whim, craving some tacos, we drive by it all of the time, since it's 5 minutes from our house. It definitely didn’t disappoint and we will be back. The dine in area is very cute, clean, and bright. We appreciate restaurants where you order and pay ahead so when you're ready to go, you can. Our food came out quick and tasted fresh. The cashier was super friendly and helpful. The food was 4.5 out of 5 BUT I want to try other items as well besides the tacos. I throughly enjoyed their sauces and salsas. The churros were hands down the BEST we have both ever had! (Which can be dangerous since it's too easy to get to this place to get more when we are craving them LOL) I knew the food would be pretty darn good based on the constant stream of customers for both pick up and dine in. Oh! Also the prices are VERY reasonable for the amount of food you get. We were both stuffed for $20 which included 2 Mexican Cokes. Can't wait to try more of the menu!”

“Beautiful space, friendly staff! Delicious drinks”

“Friendly and fast service. The staff will even make things right, regardless of who is at fault. Cookies are usually perfect 👌

Parking: Park by the entrance! Easy and convenient to Park by the door.”

“I love visiting Family Room Coffee and Bake Shop! Whether I'm making a stop with a friend or having a mommy and daughter outing with my young girls, it's my favorite place to grab a drink. The chill atmosphere with comfy couches, board games, books, and great selection of delicious drinks and baked goodies make it awesome for catching up with friends or getting some work done. But it's also so Family friendly! We love the small tables and chairs, coloring pages, puzzles, books, and squishmallow pillows they have for kids. They also have highchairs available if you want to sit at the tables. My favorite thing might be the kids menu! All the drinks have fun names like "Frozen Unicorn", "Chilly Narwhals" and "Chilly Turtles" and they look adorable with whipped cream and sprinkles, plus taste just as good! This is one of our favorite places to go! I highly recommend stopping by for a visit!”

“Great tasting, good price. Always satisfied. Occasionally my specialty order gets mixed up but not enough to complain about it.( or I would've given 5 stars)”

“It’s one of my favorite fast, healthy places to eat!”

“Great environment, great food, great people”

“Had a filling and delicious meal! We planned our stops on a trip south and back so we could eat at Fazolis’ since there are none where we live. Wish they would expand north into New York State!”

“We had a pizza party with 17 difference pizzas and Cardinals was voted the best pizza! Pizza came from all over central Ohio. Figured I would leave this review so everyone knows that it’s just that good!”

“Beyond delicious! My husband and I agreed that the Mac and cheese is by far the best we have ever had. I got the ribs, fall off the bone good. Brisket was delicious as well! 12/10 recommend.”

“Second visit to this location, both a weekday breakfast for a party of three. Cheerful and professional service. Clean, bright and welcoming atmosphere. Food tasty and exactly as ordered.”

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

“Best chicken in Columbus. Texture, flavor, out of this world. 10/10 must try”

“Great food as always. Never disappoints”

“What a great joint to grab a pie & a drink. First of all, probably the best cauliflower pizza I’ve ever had. You honestly can’t hardly tell the difference between that and the regular crust, it’s that good. We got both today, just to test things out and we are sold on the cauliflower crust. So, keto peeps and if you’re watching carbs, definitely treat yourself to a Classics pizza. The bar is SO CLEAN and the bartender was so friendly and pours a great drink. Prices are fair and the service is unmatched. The owner, friendliest guy in the world and dedicated to making this place the best it can be. Vibes are immaculate. Truly cannot say enough good things about this location- I only wish we lived closer to make it a regular staple in our delivery rotation.”

“My first time visiting this place yesterday. I enjoyed the whatever bowl. I will be returning tomorrow. 😊 The ladies at Virginia Beach store was very welcoming and friendly.”

“I always have a great time!”

“We were staying in Columbus for a few days and I happened upon this little gem. Had a lemon whittie on Wednesday afternoon, another one on Thursday evening and a s’mores whittie Friday morning for breakfast. I have no regrets. If I’m ever in this area again I will most definitely swing by for the best ice cream sandwiches I’ve ever enjoyed! Top notch!”

“As always First Watch didn't disappoint. I had out of town relatives I was meeting and picked First Watch because I have always had great food and service.”

“Honestly I haven’t found a place with food this good and service this good in a long time. There food is so tender and delicious and worth the price same with there drinks so good. The ladies there are so sweet and the cooks do an amazing job this has became a spot I come often with my husband and friends.

Vegetarian options: You can remove meat from literally almost all of it .

Kid-friendliness: The music is low there fish and it’s Quaint enough for kids to be there.”

“A big shout out to Gloria at OX-B Newark location. It was my first time here and her customer service was outstanding. I tried the chili cheese dogs and they were delicious. I'll definitely be returning to try other menu items. Thx Gloria for being patient and helping a girl out who has a hard time making decisions.”

“This was my first visit to Koble Grill and will not be my last. I plan on returning real soon. Lea was our server and she was FANTASTIC. We had a party of 4 and everyone loved their food. We got 2 bottles of wine because on Sunday the wine were marked down. We just had a wonderful time and Please thank Lea for us”

“Great patio ! Local entertainment … @danorr”

“Great service - great food! Hot and fresh!”

“If I lived near Westerville I would visit Java almost daily to get their great coffee and enjoy the quiet atmosphere.”

“Finally, after wanting to try this place for a couple years. They have way better hours than the first time I saw this place. I got a sandwich today. Pulled pork with jalapeno sauce. It was pretty good. Portion was sized right. It beats the hell out of any other nearby fast food. So right now, I recommend Ray Ray's Hog Pit. I will be back soon for the Meat Sweats so I can try the rest of the menu. Thanks. ✌️”

“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.”

“Our first time eating here, we enjoyed our meals and the ser ice was very good. Our server Preston was very nice and recommended to my wife to order from kids menu to get a single patty burger, it was still a pretty big burger. The fries were fresh hot and many, I had the tots, they were OK but I liked the fries better. Fish and chips very good, a large piece of breaded fish well seasoned. Over all I would give them a very good rating.”

“Great little restaurant! i stopped in handing out fliers for our businesses event and met Bree, the manager and another woman at the counter. Both were so nice. They have been open for a year and I didn't even know they were there! I ordered the birria tacos and they were amazing! So much flavor! I will definitely be going back and supporting local business!”

“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 🤷‍♀️”

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

“Great service..very attentive didn't feel rushed.The pancakes and the omlette were very tasty.Julie was our server..Tracy is the manager...worth the price. Will be back.”

“The onion rings and bbq chicken nachos were great. The french fries were so hard they wouldn't bend. They took them off the bill. We saw a lot of plates as we were leaving with all their french fries left on them. Burger were good.”

“Great spot with good vibes”

“Hannah peer is amazing! Best server ever”

“Her bakery is simply outstanding! I have been ordering for several years, and every time, the cakes and pastries are a showstopper at our parties. The quality, taste, and presentation are always top-notch. Beyond the delicious treats, the customer service is exceptional—friendly, professional, and always reliable. Highly recommend for anyone looking”

“This is an excellent spot for tasty hot chicken sandwiches. There is a wide range of heat options to suite most palates; I have had the “medium” and “hot” heat levels and both tasted excellent. The “Dave’s sauce” is good and the fries are seasoned well. The wait times can be pronounced but the wait is always worth it. The interior is clean and the staff are helpful and friendly.”

“First time take away order from GAR. My family and I loved it! Excellent Pad Thai and Mala Green Beans. Also loved the mini spring rolls and the house hot mustard dipping sauce with it. Its way better than those little packets of hot mustard usually given. Quick service, affordable pricing, great menu variety and very clean looking establishment. I will be calling them again soon, 5/5 stars!”

“This location was really good, from host to server. Our server was very friendly and good. She accommodated us on everything we needed. Thumbs up to Scrambler’s.”

“I regularly order from this location. Never had any problems until today they made my order wrong. I called and they were super apologetic and remade my order. These employees are super kind and helpful!! This is 100% my fav location :)”

“OH MY GOODNESS!!! This place is amazing! If you love pierogis. This place is great! Quality is everything and she buys the best ingredients for these mouth watering pierogis. Order now for the holidays!!!”

“The people are even sweeter than the drinks! Highly recommend this shop!! 🍓🤍”

“The food is delicious and the customer service is probably one of the best I’ve experienced.”

“This is one of the best pizza restaurant and Italian food restaurants I’ve been to since I moved from NYC to Columbus Ohio. The food is great and so is the atmosphere and the service. The best part is I live less than ten mins away from here.”

“SUPER, GREAT, AWESOME and AMAZING! I could go on. My lunch is at the front desk of my work in no time and the order is ALWAYS right. The guy who usually delivers lunch to us is just so FRIENDLY and KIND! Always look forward to seeing him as well as our food. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this Jimmy Johns.”

“Great experience! Friendly service and good recommendations! Will return!”

“So glad to find this place. The pizza is excellent. I love the crust. Based on reviews I asked for extra sauce ( I love sauce more than cheese) and my pizza was perfect. Pepperoni mushroom with extra sauce all day every day for me!”

“Amazing peanut butter and marshmallow flavours”

“We just had the best beet salads with amazing dressing. You can’t go wrong adding the smoked salmon or prosciutto. Absolutely amazing!!”

“Good drinks. Plus Leslie puts out”

“These guys are awesome. We arrived after they had closed but they still made us tacos. And they were delicious. We were from NY on our way to Moab Utah with our Jeep and they made us feel very welcome!”

“WOW. We will be back! We ordered the Mother load and had more than enough food for everyone. And very tasty! Highly recommend.”

“Great experience with Maddie. Highly recommend this place. 10/10”

“A great family owned business. Amazing food & extremely welcoming staff.”

“We have been to Double Barrel several times and it never disappoints. My BF loves the Korean wings while my favorite is the grilled chicken sandwich. Sky has been our server the past couple times we’ve been there and she is the best! Very attentive and friendly. Our only minor complaint was the volume of the live music. It’s nice to have live music but not at the level where you need to shout to the people you are eating with and the server. We will definitely be back but may avoid live music nights and just stick to football games.”

“The California Burrito is great!”

“Their pizza, Veggie Subs, and service are outstanding!”

“For my wife’s birthday this month I wanted to get her a cheesecake that wasn’t off the shelf. The cheese cake was amazing to the point my wife said it’s best she’s ever had. Will be going back.”

“Fantastic food all around! It was easily the most tender chicken I've ever had. Absolutely delicious!”

“Amazing place! Great customer service. The staff works hard and the place is very clean! I look forward to coming back!”

“I was pleasantly surprised by how good the quality was and how quickly it was ready. The amount of vegetable and meat was good for the price and was fresh. Loved the nuts and pineapples in the dish. Will come back!”

“Great place Ben a few yrs”

“Sue at Le Gateau is absolutely phenomenal at making and designing wedding cakes. She incorporated our style and suggestions into the design and it was more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. She is a true professional who takes pride in her work, understands the importance of quality and ensures that every last detail is perfect and delicious. I am so thankful that my friend, who hired Sue for her wedding, recommended her business to us. For our wedding cake, it served 230 people (4 tiers) with Italian cream cake with strawberry filling, orange cake with chocolate ganache filling, and chocolate cake with raspberry filling covered in iced buttercream frosting...might I add, all made from SCRATCH. We received so many compliments from our guests about how excellent our cake was!”

“Authentic Salvadorean food; Tasted amazing, and my personal favorites are the Pupusas and the Tacos! The Pupusas are delicious and aren't dried-out like other Salvadorean food trucks! The owner is very friendly and my food is always prepared on time. I'll definitely be recommending it to my friends and family. Thank you, Mi Casita Oasis Salvadorena, for the amazing experience!”

“This location is great. I usually do takeout, and order family style. I recommend the steamed dumplings, egg rolls, string bean chicken (get it extra spicy), the hunan chicken, the lo mein, and fried rice. The people who work here are always super nice, and it's a family run business.”

“We are from Texas and had to visit Columbus for my husbands job. We came here for dinner this past Thursday evening and the service was amazing. I had a very cranky baby and several of the waitstaff offered to get her a variety of different things to make her happy. I really appreciated that. I ordered the fried pickles and the fish and shrimp. The pickles were SPEARS which made me very happy as I love me some fried pickles but I can’t get spears anywhere around here. The fish and shrimp were hot and fresh and so crispy. Beer was ice cold and I left fat and happy! Thanks again for being so kind and understanding with my baby girl!”

“Our waitress Hannah was so friendly and personable. We really enjoyed our visit. The food, drinks, and service were exceptional!! Highly recommended!!”

“Great bartender. Place just too dark and depressing. Also, when ordering food. Horrible customer service. Was very disappointed in their attitude. didn't change when I picked it up. And they want a tip? Hope she didn't cook my food. Not on list to try again. Ugh. Pizza that ”

“Restaurant is small but clean and organized. We got chicken pad thai, beef lo mein and kung pao chicken. Also some egg rolls. Everything was great and was a decent portion size. Tasted fresh, even my toddler liked everything. Would go back, prices are super reasonable for the quality of food”

“It’s Starbuck’s! Need I say more? Fabulousness all the way!”

“Got the make your own bowl. The beef was perfectly cooked and not dry. The veggies added were not to crunchy and not to soft and the portions are always packed! Rice was good.”

“Great place to come if you’re looking cakes— I get one every year for my kids birthdays and they love it! Full of ice cream and toppings, you can either pick one pre built or customize one yourself!”

“Great food however, I ordered a burger and fries and didn't check my bag. They gave me the sandwich only. This faux pas will not keep me from returning there. Everyone makes mistakes.”

“Great neighborhood restaurant! Food is good and staff is friendly!”

“My sister and I stopped at the Chick-Fil-A, in Hamilton quarter, today for lunch. A young lady (I'm sorry, I did not get her name) took our order as soon as we walked in. Our orders were delivered quickly and separately by a young man and Becky, who asked if we needed anything else. I asked for some nugget sauce and a small bag, and she delivered both quickly. She came by a few minutes later and took our drinks for refills. Before we left, she came by again and asked if there was anything else we needed. Becky was efficient, friendly and conscientious. The food was very good, atmosphere pleasant and the service was excellent. All three employees contributed to making our dining experience a good one. Thank you.”

“We ordered pizza Saturday night from our local Donatos Pizza Shop, and were tickled to see a friendly note from the employee who made our pizza. I thought that was a nice touch! So to return the favor, I thought I’d post a nice review on the Westerville Donatos Facebook page. Thanks, Andrew Jones!! You make a delicious pizza! We did enjoy it, and thanks to you, we will be back often. Keep up the good work!!!”

“Not from Columbus but every time I go there I try to stop in at Anges pizza Polaris. I have tried almost everything on the menu and I haven't had any complaints, the customer service is also great.”
