We needed some quick nourishment and so glad we landed here. I totally missed the menu, but the employee was willing to explain everything to us. I got the sandwich - if you can call it that.. and hubby got the salad. Friendly, Fresh, Flavorful, and a Funky vibe. Hubby LOVED the music selections!! The roasted cauliflower and pickled cabbage alone are reasons to return!! Next time we visit Columbus, we will be stopping here!! read more

Brassica - Black cherry sugar cane beverage - Mediterranean Near Me - Bexley, Ohio

I tried Brassica for the very first time today and I was very impressed by the quality of the food. I got the salad bowl and my co-worker got the sandwich. We wrote down our orders, which you can find on their online menu area if your ordering for a big crowd. It is very handy dandy. Parking is simple you can park anywhere there in the Bexley plaza because it's all free and open parking areas. The wait was long as expected, when I got to the counter the staff were very nice and hospitable. They made their recommendations which I appreciated. Most of which made my bowl taste even better thanks to them. I got the falafel bowl which has about 3 or 4 falafels. They are the real deal, taste very authentic to what I remember growing up and making them in my original homeland of Israel. Next you pick your toppings I got the eggplant, cauliflower, crispy onions, cukes and onions. You have a choice with the sauces, they have the their house sauce or you have a choice between the red pepper, tahini or hot sauce. Finally you check out and you can add extras like pita for $2.50 or the seasoned fried which are oh so yummy and worth trying. Finally, refresh with their house made minty lemonade to complete your meal. This entire meal is worth the wait and money! read more

This was our first time trying this place . The choices are many and it reminds you of a chipotle but a much better selection of fresh cooked veggies and pickled veggies . The pita I had was very good and the fillings I selected were delicious . We will definitely go back . The choices range from hummus to eggplant, carrots, and pickles and radish combo that is very tasty . Go and try this place you won't be disappointed. read more

Fresh, colorful, delicious, creative, high quality ingredients... did I mention delicious? Columbus is a city that is packed with good places to eat, but this one definitely deserves special attention my friends. The fresh baked pita bread, the smoky baba ganoush, the flavorful sauces, the beef brisket, the falafel and the fries are simply exceptional. It is beautiful to see when people put so much love into their work and food, and this place definitely does it! read more

SEVEN WORDS: IT'S Like Chipotle or Piada...Only Better. . So...who hasn't thrown their hat into the "Stuff in a Bowl" category, yet? . Meditreranean Food, that's who. Two bowls and a Soda came to $26 and change. Now, that is a little pricy, but the Quantity and Quality of this food makes it well worthwhile. Additionally, its great food - even if you're not a big fan of North African Cuisine ( which is really what my Brassica serves). We both left full and I can't wait to come back again - next time with a more adventurous foodie. . And when I say Medditerranean, think Hummus, Lentils, Polenta, Eggplant, Beets, Feta, and Pita Chips. . Just like Chipotle or Piada or even Noodles and Company, Brassica lets you pick and chhoose what you read more

If you like Mediterranean and fast casual than this is a must try. I hadn't had brassica in years and it was even better than I remember. A ton of great healthy options and this Bexley location is so charming with ample parking available. I got the falafel bowl with rice, hummus, baba ganoush, roasted carrots, roasted beets, mixed greens, roasted cauliflower, cucumber, roasted eggplant. It was one of the most flavorful meals I have ever had. They even had vegan tahini chocolate chip cookies! I highly recommend the house dressing with it. If it's your first time or it's been a while, let them know and they will guide you on ordering. read more

Brassica - I Got The Sandwich With Hummus, Falafel, Marinated Eggplant With Special Sauce, Cucumbers & Radish. With The Minty Pink Lemonade - Mediterranean Near Me - Bexley, Ohio

Kinda looks open, kinda looks just before opening; absolutely delightful fresh and brightly flavors of food. Delightful. Unexpected. We shall stop to eat again (we are 2/2.5 hrs from home).... Solid value for the money - we went with vegan options.... left with full bellies.... we enjoyed their music selections... kinda like chipotle- only much better Love the Mediterranean flairs read more

Tried the salad bowl with different samples. The hummus is bland and liquidy. The baba ganoush was very smoky - I think that they add liquid smoke to their recipe. I actually liked it even though it was was artificially smoky. The falafel was very salty. I did like the pickled vegetables especially the red cabbage. The chicken was okay. So I would suggest skipping the hummus and the falafel. The chicken may work better in a sandwich. read more

I ordered the salad. Kept it vegetarian/vegan. The base was salad... no hummus or any other base. This was my first time having fresh falafel! I've never been impressed with falafel in the past. But I've never had them fresh until this very moment! Now I understand why people love falafels!! I almost wish I didn't try them because I think I am hooked now. They are so delicious. Everything in my bowl was so tasty! The fries were made fresh as well! They have their own unique seasoning. Like a seasoned salt mixed with a slight tajin flavor. Very good. Ate them all before I got home which was not far. The young lady that took my order was so pleasantly nice & helpful. I wish I got her name. Will definitely be back. read more

Went for lunch today with a friend. We each ordered a " salad ". The rice with lentils is the base and then they topped it with mostly kale and little shredded lettuce. The chicken was tasty and then I added eggplant, cooked carrots, marinated cucumbers, red beets and purée eggplant. It was very good but pricey at $11.50. read more

It's alright. It's another build your own chipotle style joint. Service was great. It could push the use of spices, and be more adventurous with their menu. It's hard to find places in central Ohio that don't dumb down their menus. read more

I love all the Brassica locations because they serve such great food. But the Bexley Brassica is my favorite of all the Brassica's. They seem to serve up the perfect portions. The line moves quick. There is always a perfect place to sit. I just love the relaxed feel of the atmosphere. If you have never been to Brassica, think Chipotle, but quality ingredients. The owner's of this restaurant chain consider this is our ode to brassicas, a family of vegetables known for serious nutrition. You choose either a bowl or a pita, the base will begin with greens and a mixture of rice and lentils. You then choose your protein. I always go with the chicken, but they also have glazed bacon, falafel, brisket, and more vegetables. You have toppings / additions such as cukes and radishes, carrots, marinated eggplant, hummus, babaganoush, baked pitas, crispy onions, the list can go on and on. You will find your perfect combo, just like we did. Also, try their french fries, they are to die for. I dream about them. After trying Brassica once you will never go back to Chipotle again. Enjoy and you are welcome. read more

Delicious. Enough said. Seriously though, anything and everything I or my husband or friends have ever eaten from here is so flavorful and delicious. I love the chicken with a rice and lentils base and the cooked carrots and cucumbers added with all the other yummies I have them pile on top. read more

Our dinner at Brassica was flavorful and healthy. We loved the interplay of flavors, textures and colors. Food of this quality could have been served in a white-tablecloth restaurant for four times the price. We had lentils/rice, kale salad, brisket, pickled veggies, roasted carrots, hummus, falafel balls, pita and tried three different sauces (special/house, roasted red pepper and tahini). Everything tasted delicious, and portions are generous. The restaurant is attractive and clean. Customer service is excellent. I called with questions about the menu, and Tom was knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. read more

Had a brisket and chicken rice bowl. Also, got a side of hummus and pita. The ingredients were fresh and the dish was so flavorful. The star of the show was the customer service, though. Associate was so sweet and did such a wonderful job answering my questions and describing the various sauces/toppings. Will be going back! read more

Truly as good as you're ever going to get at this price point. Highest quality ingredients, filling portions, amazing taste, great service, clean restaurant. Everything I've had here has been delicious. Earns every bit of its five stars. read more

Brassica - Brisket - Mediterranean Near Me - Bexley, Ohio

We love Brassica on East Main! The food is always consistent and the fries are a must. P.S. don't forget a refreshing mint lemonade

Hands down one of my favorite places to grab a salad from! I took my daughter for the first time today so when asked if we would like some fries to go along with our salads I said yes but asked just for one order for us to share and why did I do that???? Their fries were absolutely delicious! They were seasoned to perfection and I couldn't eat just one. read more

The food here is always good. The meats are tender and juicy. The people always smile. I love having a nice lunch date there and smashing a bottle of wine together! Always well worth the price. read more

3 visits is enough to form an opinion. You had me at the first visit! I guess that speaks highly of consistency of excellence. The staff seemed to be trained as if they are profit sharing, and having a motivational enlightenment regularly. I just don't know how else to describe this commitment to the customer having a GREAT visit. First off, plan your meal around the fries. If you want to share them, OK, but somebodys going back up to order more. They even have a house sauce that makes them even better. If that was possible. When you come in, hook an immediate left to the cattle lane. Grab a special bottled or canned libation or something at the end from the Tea, lemonade, or Boylans sodas. The menu is above your head. Pita or salad. Choose protein or veggie. The pitas are made almost to order. They are still warm from the oven. As you move down the cafeteria style line, choosing your delicious fillings. Now order your fries and pay. Seat yourself in any of the art deco table spaces. A patio when it's warmer out. Fetch that drink and maybe a condiment. By then, a smiling face is bringing you those hot scrumptious fries. Need anything? Just ask. They rush to make it right. I've had the salad and the pita. The brisket, Bacon, and chicken. They have all been stellar. I expect everything else to be the same. Don't like what you picked? They will be happy to re-make it for you. I haven't seen such an investment into customer happiness since Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines. read more

Trendy new spot in Bexley for some Mediterranean inspired food. I had the brisket bowl and loaded it up with hummus, all of the veggies- red cabbage, cucumbers, spicy carrots, cauliflower, salad, eggplant, feta and special sauce. It was really filling but healthy and satisfying. My only complaint were the bowls it was served in. The base of the bowl was too small so my bowl actually toppled over and spilled on me because of this. Not the best situation so hopefully they change what this is served in to something a little bigger or a different shape. read more

Oh brassica. Thank you for moving to Bexley, something was necessary for me to quit traveling to the short north for my brisket salad fix. I am obsessed with your food, everything is always so fresh.

Let me start off this review by saying that Brassica is my favorite place to eat in Columbus right now. I go to the Brassica on High Street quite often. I actually hold the Duke title on yelp for the Location on High (Pats myself on the back). And I've been waiting an awfully long D**M time for this one to open! Biggest question i had to myself before coming: Would I get the same quality with the food as I do with the High Street location. Answer is: Yes. The food is still incredibly good. The thing i love most about this place is how all the flavors differ, but all come together in such harmony. I don't want to seem sappy, but I love this place lol. I would never think of getting things like Eggplant and Cauliflower. But it all pairs so well together, and everything is very good. Make sure you are not afraid to go and try things you THINK you won't like here. Because I promise you it will work and you will like it. Also everything is fresh and you can tell everything is quality food. My go to meal is: Sandwich with Hummus, Crispy onions, half Brisket/Glazed Bacon, Pickled Cabbage, Extra Special Sauce, Eggplant, Cauliflower, Carrot. Then I always have to add on the Brassica Fries (Which are seasoned perfectly) w/special sauce, and a Mint Pink lemonade. You have to try that lemonade by the way. It's so refreshing. But let me let you in on a TIP that nobody is doing, that everyone should be..... Put some fries into your sandwich, it's so good. I've yet to see anyone else do this. But my goal is to have everyone doing this by years end lol. First impression when i walk in, is that this location is a lot more open and brighter. It is still very aesthetically pleasing. There is more room to move about the seating area, and the windows all around allow more natural light to enter the building. Everything looks high nice and gives you that feel that this inst just some rush job to get another location up, They wanted to give it that same high quality experience, that you get with eating their food. The customer service was really good. Like the location on high, the employees were friendly engaging. This must be something they look for while interviewing because I can see it's a standard that they set for when they hire people. I've never had a bad customer experience ever at the high location, and from the looks of it I won't have one here either. So im giving this 5 stars. Another great restraint by brassica. I'd recommend this location to anyone. This location is more kid friendly because of where it is at and how open the place is. Bexley was the perfect part of the city for them to expand into. You can't really get much better than Brassica. read more

I love BRASSICA. We all know that by now. This one just happens to be closer to my house Always great food and choices. I think I get different things every time and ALWAYS love it! It's just so darn good! This location is a ton brighter than the Short North location and much bigger but they both have that modern vibe to them that I enjoy. This also has a lot for parking so I'd say it's a little more family friendly or more convenient honestly. Same great food and same great staff! Well done Brassica! read more

Great food. The Mediterranean or Chipotle. Try all their different sauces. So yummy!

What a great concept. These folks are placing healthy eating on the map. The pita oven is the star of the kitchen which is a simple bread and really isn't a star in the real world but it sure is here. Think chipotle meets Mediterranean! read more

Fresh in-house prepared food. There are two locations, one in Short North (North High) and one in Bexley ( E Main St). I ate at the one in Bexley. The atmosphere is casual, friendly, open, and natural light. There is plenty of seating inside and some tables for outside seating. The food is flavorful. If you like lamb, I suggest the lamb bacon. It is made in house. Food is ordered by going through a line and you tell them what you would like on a salad or in a pita(made in house). Pay at the end of the line. Service is quick and friendly. I will be going back. The Bexley location is across from Capital University, on the corner of the building. The Bexley City Hall sign is on the top of building facing Main St. There will be another restaurant opening in Upper Arlington, OH. read more

Okay, I may have a new favorite place to eat. Finally made it to Brassica, and am currently taking a breather from chowing down on this incredible food. It's a sort of upscale take on the fast casual concept, but the ingredients leave Chipotle or Bibibop in the dust. (The ticket shows that, too, but I wouldn't be making this a frequent stop. You know that thing about if you have to ask the price you can't afford it? Yeah, prices aren't posted on their website.) My meal: Base is rice and lentils, then greens (am I eating kale? Yes, I think I am.) Then your protein (lamb bacon with an Aleppo pepper glaze; other choices include chicken, brisket, others), crispy onions, choice of baba ghanoush or hummus, then all the veg: I just said YES PLZ and got beets, cucumbers and radishes, marinated eggplant, cauliflower, pickled onions, carrots... I think that's the lot. Zhug on the side, but honestly, it doesn't need the sauce. Most of the veg are marinated or pickled somehow, so if that's not your thing, choices may be limited. My drink was minty pink lemonade, which is divine, and I never would have thought to put those flavors together. Other nice points: I got takeout, but while I was in there I was pleasantly surprised that it was pretty quiet, not all chaotic with music and loud voices. The layout works well, and I was in and out quickly. You can get a sandwich instead of the bowl/salad I chose, and there are good vegetarian options as far as I could tell. read more

Brassica - Salad with the lamb bacon, baba ghanoush, and ALL the veg. Minty pink lemonade to drink, yum. - Mediterranean Near Me - Bexley, Ohio

Brassica has never disappointed me! When it first opened, I couldn't be more pleased with this grab and go style of amazing food. My personal favorites are the glazed bacon and the falafel as protein options. I like to get half and half and it's the best of both worlds! As far as the veggies/toppings-- I'm all for the baba instead of hummus, and then allll of the other toppings are essential. I especially love the pickles, pickled red onions, and the eggplant... and don't sleep on the house hot sauce. Special shoutout to this location because it has a fabulous patio and the staff is always super friendly. In fact, a couple of years ago after I mentioned being excited about just landing an important contract for work, I went to check out and there was a note attached to the top of my bowl that said "congrats!" and they gave me my order on the house. You honestly can't beat that type of service. Brassica is probably my favorite casual place to eat, especially for lunch. The bowls also keep extremely well in the fridge for later. Who would be surprised, though, considering that this awesome local chain was created by the same people behind North Star Cafe, and you can expect the same awesome quality and flavors at Brassica. Thanks again, Bexley Brassica, for your generosity awhile back! read more

This is my go to lunch spot. The crew is on point and always high energy and positive. The food is great and I always feel great after eating it. Might be too much garlic for date night, but don't stop doing that - this is for me. Love that hummus. read more

The most delicious and fresh food- one of my new favorite places. Please come to Dublin!!

I'm ridiculously hooked on this new Brassica. I go at least once a week and can't tear myself away from the lentil salads. What I love is that I eat more veggies here than I'd eat elsewhere because of how fresh they are and how they're prepared. The spicy carrots are great (but not really spicy), the cucumbers and radishes I could eat by the gallon (and I don't even really enjoy cucumbers most days and the pickled radish is so flavorful. The chicken is my favorite of all the proteins even though the brisket and bacon are pretty good. The staff is always happy -how, I don't know. I mean they are always just so nice and smiling. The price/tipping on fast casual still irks me but I get that I'm paying $11.50 for a super fresh salad that I couldn't make for nearly the same price at home of the same quality. If you want to try this place and you're skeptical, just try it. It's so worth it. read more

I am a big fan of this place. Take the chipotle concept, but make it mediterranean style food. The service is so friendly and the food is great! I also appreciate how quickly you can get through the line and to your food, so don't be scared off by a long line during prime lunch or dinner hours. I am told the ingredients are all fresh daily and many are local. It tastes fresh! It's just so different than what I am able to get anywhere else for the price and it feels healthy. If you want to splurge, throw in some french fries! They even serve beer and beer in addition to soft drinks. Or if you want to stay really healthy, check out their bottles of fresh juice as you approach the ordering line. Unique enough, tastes great, and the staff seems to not only know what they're doing, but enjoy it too. read more
