    a roast beef sandwich
    Joey M.

    We went into Danny's for lunch this week and found it to be a capable, quick-service lunch spot. The place was busy but the staff did a good job managing our group. The menu is bigger than I thought it would be. I ordered the New Yorker, consisting of corned beef, Swiss cheese, and slaw on rye. The sandwich itself tasted good, but the meat was a bit drier than I expected. The potato wedges as a side were solid as well. The pricing is fair, but with a side (not included) and a drink it got up near $20. I'd recommend going here if you need a quick lunch in Columbus!

    Sickly looking corned beef the color of Arby's

    New owners have done a number on this place. Used to be a huge fan but whatever this is...it ain't it. This was my $15 corned beef that was served to me cold and lacking any color. Looked like thick cut Arby's meat or something. Sadly they increased the price and give us less product and even worse quality. Make the drive to Cleveland if you want the real deal.

    A Columbus landmark spot for an amazing lunch. Great prices, super clean, delicious food options always prepared fresh and made to order, and exceptional service. A must stop if you are downtown.

    I had been meaning to try this place for a while after a friend told me how good it was. Months later, I decided to come for lunch. I heard that it's busy around noon, so my friend and I stopped by around 11:40 on a Friday. There were already tons of people eating in here and a few others waiting for food. We didn't wait long in line as there was only one person in front of us. I had to get me the Reuben! They've got three sizes: baby, regular, or jaw breaker. I got the baby Reuben which was the perfect size! At $10.50, it was a pretty good price. We waited maybe 5-7 minutes before we got our food. Yum! It's tasty! The meat was fresh and they place the 1000 island dressing on the side so you can slather it on there yourself. I was full! A guy told me he's gotten the jaw breaker before and had to share it. Good to know! My friend got onion rings which were huge and thick! A little over $3 didn't seem like a bad deal to me. The place is interesting. It looks like a diner. Black and white tiles, red cushions on the seats. There are plenty of tables to eat at if you decide to dine in. They've got some patio seating as well! Not sure when I will return but this is one of my favorite spots downtown now!

    Regular size pastrami-corned beef combo sandwich

    Danny's deli is sort of hidden in the basement of a typical downtown office building (though they do have a separate below grade entry way) off Broad. In a nutshell, good food, decent prices, above average portions, brusque service, subterranean setting equals a good place to grab lunch/snack to take to nearby park or back to workplace. One sandwich ($11-14) was too much food for one but ok for 2 to share. The meats tasted great with just the right amount of moisture. The setting felt like a 50's school cafeteria with lots of signs about what "not to do" (don't lean on this, set items on that, etc.). Enjoy the Capitol nearby or the riverfront park instead.

    Regular Reuben sandwich
    Karen W.

    I love, love, love Reuben. If I see Reuben sandwich on the menu, I will always order it. I read great review of this restaurant. This restaurant is a bit weird because if you enter from one side of the street, you enter into an office building. You will have to take an elevator to P1, walk through a door and turn right. There is no signage from that side of the street. It feels like walking into a jail in a basement. But if you enter from the other side of the street which is right next to the garage exit, you could walk into the restaurant right away. It is not a big restaurant. You could order carryout or dine in. The dining area has a 50's dining feel. We ordered a regular size (medium) Reuben sandwich with corned beef and pastrami for carryout. It came with a small pickle in a bag. The bread was pan fried nicely on both side with a crunch. It came with good portion of meat. I can't complain about the meat ratio. I wish it came with twice the amount of sauerkraut. Warning: this is a messy and greasy sandwich. Eat with caution :) However the people who work there are not the friendly bunch. I would never dine in as I don't expect great service for sure. I would not mind just order takeout.

    Amazing sandwich I had the Ruben with pastrami and corn beef oh my it was so so good. My hubby tried The pastrami sandwich with lettuce and tomatoes and provolone cheese. We will definitely be back when it's our cheat eat meat day. Then we topped it off with the cookie brownie yummy also . Anna was a great waitress !

    french fries and coleslaw

    What kind of public middle school food is this! I am highly disappointed. I got the chicken sandwich with coleslaw and fries. For one the chicken was 3 chicken strips and some nasty soggy bread. The fries was even worst cause it wasn't crispy. I am highly disappointed at the lack of effort they put into this food. At least make it look like you tried. Times are hard but food don't have to be this hard !!! This is the last time I order from here. There should be a zero star given, sad absolutely sad ! However, Thank you for your services.

This place knows how to make your taste buds do the happy dance. We didn't have to wait long for our food, which was a blessing because I was *hangry*. When the food came out, it was hot, fresh, and basically screamed, "Eat me now!" My son went for the mushroom Swiss burger, which he devoured like he hadn't eaten in weeks. I opted for the classic cheeseburger with fries -- simple, juicy, and absolutely perfect. Oh, and as if one meal wasn't enough, my son also ordered a chicken sandwich. He declared it "the best ever," which is saying something because this kid is a chicken sandwich connoisseur. The television entertainment was the Cartoon Network, which made me know this was a special place. Preston's, you've earned a special place in our hearts (and stomachs). If you're looking for a spot that serves up deliciousness with zero pretension, this is it. Highly recommend -- just don't forget to bring stretchy pants!

The burger was good, very fresh bun, fresh ingredients. The fries were pretty ordinary, but crisp and hot. The standout was the biscuits that I ordered to see what they were like. The were unique and very good. They were just a little sweet. Good texture /mouth feel. I wonder if the biscuits would make a good burger bun... maybe too sweet? The place was very clean and inviting. The qr code ordering was handy, but a bit impersonal. The server was nice and did offer to take my order personally. Not sure if I'll come back on my own initiative (not close to my house). But if a friend said let's have lunch there I'd be happy to return.

Kind, personable, and genuinely warm exactly the kind of energy that makes a meal feel like more than just a meal. If you've seen The Menu, you know that scene where all anyone really wants is just a perfect, unpretentious burger done right. Thurman's is exactly that. The burger was everything it needed to be no gimmicks, no shortcuts, just a beautifully made sandwich that delivers on every level. The fries? Equally on point. Honestly, I have no notes. None. This is the kind of place that reminds you why simple food, done exceptionally well, will always win. If you haven't been, go. If you have, you already know.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The beauty of a Saturday afternoon is there were sports on and TVs hanging on the walls. That made the wait easy. Boy do they know their stuff bc it was pretty much one hour to the minute when they called our name and escorted us to our table. We sat in a booth and took in on the collection of various items around the bar that have been gathered through the years and had some laughs at some of it. It was almost like a fun game of eye spy! They came to take our drink order and by the time they returned we were ready to order. We chatted for a bit and our food came out in what seemed to be a good time. I ordered the Patty Melt with onion straws. My husband got the Thurman Burger. We were surprised by its size when they came carrying it out to our table. Believe it or not he ate every single bite. Said it was delicious. Mine was equally as delicious. Maybe not quite as big but that was fine by me. I actually quite enjoyed that they served the 1000 island on the side. It made it way easier to eat. The cheese was nice and gooey. Just perfect. The onion straws were good too. I shared those with my husband. They were actually just as good on their own as they were dipped in any kind of sauce. That's big coming from me bc I love dipping! We got a box for our leftovers and headed out happy with a great first time experience here.

Great for finding some food before attending a show at one of the nearby theaters. The menu is what I would best describe as comfort, food. Burgers, pot roast, chicken, pastas, and other selections, which are filling and delicious. A menu is available for review online. Parking is available on street and in a variety of garages and flat lots located throughout the area.

    I've had this place bookmarked for a while but never found ourselves in downtown cbus until today…read more We saw a matinee show at the Ohio Theatre (highly recommend) and then walked over to Pat & Gracie's for a late lunch. Arrived approximately 3:30pm - restaurant basically empty (maybe 5 tables total occupied). Went to check in for 2 and the host said he had reservations at 5. Huh? So I asked do you mean you can't seat us until 5? And he said no, that we need to leave by then because other people are coming. I thought that was very weird and unprofessional. I've never had an experience like that before. It's a basic sit down place, why would you think we'd linger for more than an hour and a half? Whatever, weird feeling, but we were seated. Seated in the walkway. Not like in a path but literally blocking the walkway where you step down. Why do I say this? Because people walking by kept banging into me. Not their fault. Why is there a table there? And why were we seated there when at least 80% of the restaurant was empty???? Ok whatever. Ordered food including their signature made in-house tots. Waitress comes back and says they were slammed in the morning and they're out of tots. (Man I feel bad for the people coming at 5. LOL) whatever except the people at the next table appeared to be served tots. Food was tasteless. The Mac and cheese had a weird texture like the roux wasn't cooked properly. My patty melt was mostly bread as the patty was too small for the bread. My husband had the signature chimi burger and it completely lacked any chimichurri flavor. Like at all. We were out by 4ish (plenty of time for them to prepare for their expected onslaught) and needless to say I've unbookmarked this place from my yelp. Maybe we'll try the Mexican place across the street next time. ‍
