All three of us ordered a different sandwich and they were all phenomenal - the buffalo chik'n special, spicy bak'n burger special, and the regular chik'n sandwich. They all came with perfectly seasoned, hot, and crispy fries. Staff was also incredibly friendly & personable. An all-around great place! We will definitely return! Highly recommended. 🫶🌱”

“I love this place. The people who work here make you feel at home immediately. From Terra to Kyle to Veronica, and my boy Brent! Having the pizza truck outside the back entrance is genius. Everything I've eaten at Antonio's has been delicious. This is my new favorite place and it feels like home already”

“Tried for the first time today! Absolutely love this place!!! Great food! Great atmosphere! A place to bring your family to have breakfast, play board games or just escape from the daily work grind! I also picked up some food for my office staff and they enjoyed the bagels and cinnamon rolls! My personal favorite was the Strawberries & Cream Latte! We will be back! Next time I’ll be bringing my family!!”

“Everything was wonderful when I went a couple of weeks ago. The tableside guacamole was delicious! And the portions are very generous, the wait staff was very attentive.”

“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!”

“Delicious pasta! I ordered the carsonies pasta and an extra meatball. This was my first time ordering here and think meatballs and sauce really tell a lot about how good the meal will be. Also got the chicken carsonies. I would suggest more white sauce and better service”

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

“We were staying in Columbus for a few days and I happened upon this little gem.

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!”

“I wanted to try a new pizza joint and Brenz had good reviews on Uber Eats so I tried it and the reviewers did not steer me wrong! Except they forgot some of my order. The pizza was great, the bread sides were ok. The Heritage Hot Honey- a MUST try!!!! Top 3 pizza's I ever tasted. I was worried it would be too spicy because I am a whoosie but it was not. Portion sizes are great also. Just wish my full order arrived.”

“My 4 and 6yo granddaughters wanted me to give a good review because they so enjoyed breakfast and thought our waitress was incredible (she was very attentive and kind to this grandma a baby and his sisters out for Sunday breakfast)”

“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.”

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

“The BEST pierogies we've ever had! They are so big and the price you pay for them is very reasonable for the size. Paired with the garlic dill sour cream - chefs kiss. Liz is so kind, sweet, and humble & it feels so homey when you walk in and see her husband and children working as a team with her. I eye her insta page weekly to see what kind of goodies shes cookin up.”

“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!”

“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!”

“Great service great attitude!”

“I love Bibibop! The food is so fresh and you can change your meal and flavor up at each visit. The salmon is one of my favorites and I also love the crispy chicken. This Westerville store in particular is very, very clean and the general manager, Bao, was so very helpful when I was having trouble with my app. He gave me instructions that worked and really gave me personalized service. My daughter has Celiac disease and this is one of the few safe restaurants where she can eat safely. It's all gluten free and delicious!”

“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 🤷‍♀️”

“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!”

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

“Great food and the employees are awesome! You need to try the Zaks sweet meat pizza!”

“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. ✌️”

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

“Great spot with good vibes”

“Hannah peer is amazing! Best server ever”

“So glad there is a Great Harvest in my area. This location has been here for decades … and for good reason. The bread and cookies are exceptional. And the service is second to none. My highest recommendation …”

“My wife, daughter and I ordered food from Dave’s. It was phenomenal. The top loaded fries with Dave’s bites are great.”

“Great patio ! Local entertainment … @danorr”

“delivery in NC coast awesome pizza grew up with Massey pizza”

“Amazing peanut butter and marshmallow flavours”

“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.”

“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!”

“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”

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

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

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

“The California Burrito is great!”

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

“This is my go to Mexican restaurant. Veronica and Carlos are always happy to see us. My wife and I come in several times a week and we usually bring friends or family with us. Because we can always count on a Good time, Great food, Excellent service and a cozy place to hang out. Portion size is always great. They will make your order to your liking just ask, they are very accommodating. Food is served hot and fast. Great bang for your buck ! Check it out”

“Great place Ben a few yrs”

“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.”

“I came to the bar for a quick
Drink and a bite at 5pm on April 29. There was a short waitress that literally waited on a Table 4 feet from me and totally IGNORED me. I found Out that I shouldn’t have Sat myself Down but She could have Come To me And said ‘I will get Your waitress For you’, instead she STARED at me and walked away. I flagged her down AGAIN and asked for a glass
Of wine. 10-15 minutes later…. NADA. I tried flagging Her Down Again and She looked at me and walked away. Her name is something like Aigen. Manager and other staff were VERY NICE. Food is great.
She could have handled the whole thing differently, with respect and decent manners and explained To me that my table wasn’t hers, but she would get someone to help me, and
Instead she ignored me. ‘Alex’ waited on me and he was very NICE.
AGAIN, NO ISSUES WITH THE OTHER STAFF, FOOD, etc., just with this one RUDE waitress.”

“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.”

“Love this new location! The owners are very nice and kind! The staff is fabulous and the chicken salad phenomenal! They opened a little over a week ago and I’ve gone three times including midnight for the grand opening, met some really nice people waiting in line for that. So if you’re hungry for something other than the usual burger and fries, definitely check this place out, they have 12 flavors of chicken salad made fresh daily, either a sandwich or with crackers you can’t go wrong. Located at 4345 W. Dublin-Granville Road in the Shoppes at River Ridge.”

“Good drinks. Plus Leslie puts out”

“I didn't get her name but there's a lovely barista that is friendly and gave me an extra drink. I truly appreciate this gesture since it'll be a hard day for me. She made my morning! Delicious frappe too.”

“I have nothing but good things to say about them. The lady who is always working is super nice and friendly every single time I come by. I have tried a lot of the food and it all tastes incredible. The service is great and quick. This is a photo of the “Pupusa Loca” which is one of my favorites.”

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

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

“First time trying this. I decided to venture out of my comfort zone and got a new dish, I tried the black pepper beef and it was absolutely fantastic. I ordered for pickup and it was ready within minutes. The owners are so very sweet and the price for a lunch portion was extremely reasonable. I will definitely be coming back soon”

“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.”

“Hired last minute and it was incredible! Will definitely be hiring again :)”

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

“Love this restaurant!! Must try!”

“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!”

“Classics Sports Bar is an excellent spot to hang out with friends, grab a beer, and catch a game in a vibrant atmosphere. For those visiting from outside the United States, it offers a unique and authentic experience to see what a typical American sports bar is all about. Between the high-energy environment and the genuine local feel, it is the perfect destination for anyone looking to enjoy great entertainment and experience the culture firsthand.”

“Standing here now in a wild lunch rush and I had to commend the entire team on how well they are working together and communicating the massive rush of orders while they are managing 13 sandwiches at a time and getting every order done promptly and correct to a T. Bravo, love this location.”

“Thank you to Tim Horton's Westerville location for your generosity in providing some hot coffee to keep us warm while we decorated the house of a person in need. Your team's willingness to help out in small ways is appreciated beyond our words of thanks today.”

“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.”

“This is the only fast food restaurant i've been to that has consistently hot food. The staff are also amazing. They're so kind and helpful. This is a great place to eat.”

“Pretty good sandwich shop. Expensive for sandwiches. Service is ok. A little slow at times but it's like a subway where everything is made to order. The atmosphere is ok. Tables inside and out.”

“I made the bestest friends ever they danced with me. After a long 17 hour shift I wanted some waffle house, but little did I know it was a waffle home.”

“My husband and I had a late lunch at the Westerville location and the food was wonderful. Also our food was served by Sam who did an excellent job taking care of us! We will be back.”

“I needed a last-minute gluten-free cake at the end of the day, and I was not disappointed! The employee behind the counter was extremely friendly and efficient. She iced the cake in five minutes.

I chose the lemon raspberry gluten-free cake… DELICIOUS. Everyone at the party loved it and commented that you would never guess it’s gluten-free. The cake was beautiful, the flavors were so bright, and the icing was deceivingly light and very tasty.
I will definitely be coming back for my next gluten-free cake!”

“I recommend the waitress Monica Barrera at the IHOP in Panorama City Calif as she gives such great and wonderful service. She asks if everything is ok and always comes back to give refills. This is much appreciated. Best wishes from the original Johnny Blaze, and "may the Blaze be with you."”

“Great location! The service was good.They loaded the salad a little weird - I had to deconstruct it to heat the chicken.The dressings were plentiful and prepackaged- overall the quality of the produce was really good.

Vegetarian options: Lots of options for fresh veggies!

Dietary restrictions: Loads of options for most diets

Parking: Make sure to lock your vehicle- this area has had some break ins.

Kid-friendliness: Kids meals and seating available

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

“Never crowded. Always clean. Drive through is fast. Always gets the order right. Easy access. No traffic issues.”

“Great service and food many choices also”

“Haven’t stopped in here in a bit, just on a whim I came in for an early dinner. I got myself something for dine in and a to go order as well. The staff is very friendly, quite attentive. I devoured my appetiser. I got myself an order of orange chicken( I’m a basic white girl I can’t help myself) and my word it is delicious. You can tell the chef loves their craft. The price cannot be beat either! If you’re in the Polaris/westerville area and looking for quick, cheap, delicious food- you gotta come here.”

“I normally always go to new China express across the street- she's closed for a week. Ming doesn't have great reviews but I decided to try them anyway. Same exact order instead of 30 was 39. Ming wins the beef and broccoli hands down. Better flavor bigger portion. Winner. Ming egg roll and China egg roll tie, both ok neither great. Chicken wings were good- another tie. If I had to choose one or would be new China but not by much. Lastly the veggie fried rice- ming had better flavor but new china had way more veggies. Overall slight nod on food to ming, nod on Portion to ming. But costing 30 percent more. Value versus quality. I'll probably eat ming fairly often but always know it comes at a cost. The decor and interior were beautiful. The waiter was very friendly. Extensive menu with every option you could want.”

“Good food, great service, a little pricey.”

“Arby's is consistently good which works for my family. Orders are always correct, quality of food is spot on and price is competitive. Love their roast beef and their jalapeño poppers and sauce is awesome! Would definitely recommend.”

“my sister and i stopped into chick fil a for a quick lunch. from the second we came in, we were warmly greeted and our order was taken immediately. our food came out super quick and the lady who dropped it off was so sweet. another lady was circulating the dining room and offered to fill up my pop as she overheard we were leaving. she was also so sweet!!! we don’t typically go out of our way to write reviews, but felt like this experience definitely deserved it 💗”
