Luis Delos Santos
One of the better happy hours in the Columbus area. The cocktails are amazing and not watered down like some others during happy hours. The oysters were also great. Just on those alone, this place gets 5*. Only 4* on food because the rest of the food (pizza) we’re solid but not super exciting. That said, we’re definitely coming back.

The food was amazing. Sat on the back patio during a hot day and the air flow was great- not too hot. Our sever was friendly and helpful. We got the eggplant app which was AMAZING, we also got the smash burger and chicken sandwich which were wonderful. Highly recommend! And kid friendly.

First time customer and came for my birthday and specifically for the budino dessert. Bartender was awesome and chicken sandwiches with fries were good. My dessert was like watered down cream of chicken soup. It was not a pudding and not a custard and was so watery that it broke my heart. Ate some of it trying to figure out what was wrong and when I pulled the cookie out, it broke into twenty pieces as it was so dry. My husband’s dessert smelled like it was blow torched. Both looked good in pic, but were so bad. Wanted to give feedback because I would like to try again but came for it and was so let down. Let me know what happened…..please. Signed, Birthday girl without dessert

Wow! We came in on a Friday about 445, forgetting it was the last day of restaurant week…. however, the staff was 100% engaged and ready for battle. Service was outstanding. Food was delicious and the drinks were perfect. HH prices until 6pm! Chef brought out our food and Olivia, our server and her side-kicks were awesome. We will be back.

Great food. Smash burger is the best. Pizza is great too. Veggie appetizer dish is delicious! Patio seems to be a 1 server to entire patio ratio, can take a minute to order depending on how good the server is. But overall a great place.

We love this place and our kid does too. Very solid beer selection, great cocktails, great food and great service. I think we’ve gone three times in the last month and each time it’s great. The wait staff also remembers us which is always nice. It’s definitely our new spot.

I’ve kept an eye out on this place since they opened up in Worthington. I made our reservations for 4:30, which gave me plenty of time to enjoy Happy Hour (HIGHLY RECOMMEND) prices until 5:30. I loved the several seating options; upfront to people watch and glance over Worthington, inside in a nicely lit cool atmosphere, or outback on their newly build deck (do not recommend outback in the summer evening, it gets pretty sunny & hot).

The service was fine, the atmosphere was good. Dined here for restaurant week July 2022. My appetizer was good (the meatball), main course was a burger, but it was really messy. It came with fries which were good! The cheesecake was good as well.

Fantastic dining experience for our family of 4! Atmosphere is superb and the variety of dishes we tried exceeded our expectations! The whipped eggplant was a delightful app.while my kids loved the jumbo shrimp cocktail! I ordered the Creole shrimp pasta, my husband had the salmon and my kids had the steak frites …. All were super tasty! Would recommend and will return! I’m looking forward to trying brunch and sitting on that sweet back patio!
