We recently came here after church to try a new place for lunch - we did not leave disappointed!
Starting with the food - everything was cooked properly, seasoned well and was brought out from the kitchen in a timely manner. All courses we had were excellent from the appetizers to entrees and finishing with the lava cake for dessert. Every single food item we received was great and we would get again on a return visit. One of the owners also came by our table and gave a lot of information about themselves/backgrounds of the restaurant and the food as well. It’s not very often you will find an owner so open about the ingredients they use, how the food is prepared and the little things the kitchen does to make the food. It was a very welcomed conversation at our table and he was a pleasure to speak with during our entire experience. All of the drinks we had from the bar were fantastic as well. Highly recommend the espresso martini and the mule.
Service - from start to finish, the service was great. Timely on drinks, food orders and refills as well as clearing the table. We also never felt rushed, which is a big sticking point for our family, and they allowed us to take the time to eat our food and order next rounds when we were ready.
Atmosphere - extremely elegant inside and you can tell the time and care that went into how the restaurant looks. Has the feel of a sports bar with the large bar and TVs, but with added touches of elegant features such as the lighting, plank boards around the bar and overall decor.
We will absolutely be back and we believe this will be a welcomed local business here in Hilliard/Columbus as the...
Read moreMy husband and i decided to give this place a try after seeing some pretty good reviews on Facebook. We went today (Sunday) around 1pm. It was not very busy. There was a large group who seemed to already be eating and a few other tables had 5 or less people seated. We did notice that some employees were setting up for a party in the front area. We seated ourselves and the waitress came over to explain the menu and answer any questions we had. I explained I had seen reviews and was looking forward to trying the chicken pasta and mostly a pretzel for an appetizer. They were out of the pretzel so we skipped an app and ordered our food. I had chicken carbonara and my husband ordered the salmon. The food took a looonnnnggg time to come out. For the amount of people there, I was very surprised. Almost an hour and our waitress never once came over during that time to check on us or update us on why it was talking so long. She did come over when it was about to come out to tell us that. We got our food and it looked delicious and the portion sizes were great! Let me tell you, my food was fantastic. The flavors, especially the chicken, was 10 out of 10. My husband wasn't really a fan of his pesto covered salmon but he did say it was good, just too much pesto. Although the service was kind of slow, I would definitely return. I'm not sure if it was just because of the party they were setting up for or our food that we ordered took a while to cook (Other people seemed to get their food much faster) but we can show some grace and understand. We will return with family I'm sure This is just my...
Read more3rd strike tonight. We sooo wanted to love this as our regular go to… However tonight makes the third visit in a row of dismal service. The same bartender has forgotten us twice now… Last visit, we brought another couple for their first dining experience since the change from the previous owner. We had two appetizers that never made it last visit. In fairness, the owner brought a pretzel at no charge, but the other app never made it. Tonight, Jordan, a male bartender, forgot us again. We asked the bar back to get our server after he disappeared and we had empty glasses for the majority of our mains. He never came and a female server checked us out, never seeing our server prior to leaving. The food has been good quality, as I have defended on Facebook, however the service is in serious need of improvement. Including us, there were literally three people sitting at the bar. Third disappointment and too many local dining options to...
