Each time I've come in I've gotten a hot coffee with sugar-free syrup, and I really appreciate how they have eight or nine flavors that come sugar-free! I usually order some type of hot latte with oat milk, and it taste amazing! Served at the perfect temperature, and only takes a few minutes to come out. The staff is always friendly, and there is always plenty of seating here. I definitely plan to come back for brunch, or even a place to work during the day!

Our server was extremely friendly, and she also stated she was from Schuyler. My wife had the Oatmeal which she loved. Our daughter and our cousin had perfectly prepared Omelets.

That's how I found Regina's Kitchen. Regina's is a little hard to find because it's located inside Pioneer Plaza where multiple businesses are. Regina actually runs the restaurant but didn't seem super chatty. There is no fryer so the menu is simple. I knocked off a star because I was hoping for more food options, friendlier service, and the cookies were not my favorite. Reminiscent of food you might find in grandma or mom's kitchen during the summer. I got a tuna salad sandwich. Simple and delicious.

The sausage chili was good, nothing exceptional. The ribeye was a very interesting special and turned out great. Love the creativity! It was pretty fatty, so I cut off a few ounces, and was on the thinner side, but cooked perfectly and very juicy. The bruschetta topping was great as well. The Chambord kiss tasted amazing--but it seemed like they probably forgot the vodka! I had a lemon drop afterward and this was plenty strong to make up for it. Not pictured was the Red Rock beer we tried--this may be my new favorite beer! A copper colored wheat beer with a great flavor and after taste. Overall an excellent value. The atmosphere was busy, and on the nicer side for Columbus, yet very casual--you could wear anything and fit in. The service was good but it did take 50 minutes for our food to come out which was surprising. Definitely a good spot that I will be back to, I love the variety in the cocktail and special menus!

Train your cooks to season consistently or get cooks that know how to actually cook. It's sad when the best part of a $27 dish is the sh*t iceberg lettuce salad and a baked potato.

I worked for a couple weeks and just knew it wasn't gonna work, I was just under to much pressure there I knew eventually I would be the one getting yelled at, I talked to employees and they've all thought about leaving plenty of times and because of him. He had been saying things about me to the other employees because I moved a table to close to the wall and forgot to wipe off a cart before putting it in the back around the 2nd week I was there . I ended up quiting on my break around the 4th or 5th week I just brought my clothes and hat inside and told my employee I was sorry and I couldn't do it, nothing disrespectful not bad said just that. I come back after two days for my last check to sign a paper I walk in stand next to the counter and don't say a word just wait to be helped and the owner Steve decided he wants to yell out loud "oh it's my favorite person that just up and fuckin left the other day" and then in a different/mimicking voice says "I want my money I want my paycheck". Are you fucking kidding me that is so beyond unprofessional you are 58 and the owner of this business but can't even treat your employees or customers with decency, it's actually crazy how you can act like that I was completely dumb founded, you need to check yourself. And to everyone else working there you do not deserve to be treated like that.

Still no apology. Finally got our drinks and our food came pretty quickly, which I was happy for. Unfortunately the food was bland and my mom's was disgusting. My kids both got pancakes and they ate and it was good so I was happy with that. I got a French dip and the au jus had barely any flavor, and the roast beef tasted like it was a few days old and definitely tough. Chicken fried steak was literally disgusting and a cheeseburger was completely overcooked. It was decently clean but the bathroom was kinda dirty and there was no paper towels. Overall, just a really disappointing experience and we will not be back.
