Ridiculous Eatz serves up a nice spin on Cajun comfort food. Their main entrance on the left will take you to a counter where you can place/pick up to-go orders only, but we were greeted by the friendly owner who told us we could dine inside next door at Kelley's Pub and Patio. The inside is what you would expect from your typical bar, dark moody atmosphere with several tv screens, billiard games, etc. We tried an order of mozzarella sticks, the fried catfish snack which came with a side of fries and Texas toast, added a side of loaded grits, and finally one of their most popular dishes, the chicken & shrimp gumbo. Everything tasted very good. The grits had strips of crisped collard greens which I thought were very unique and had a nice taste. Their chicken & shrimp gumbo I also enjoyed, but it was different than the traditional style. A little too heavy on the chicken and lighter on the roux, which was very thick, but I still loved the meal and would definitely return to try more! read more

It is important to remember that this is not a restaurant but a place to eat inside of a sports bar. With that said, i have visited a couple of times and had a decent experience. The wait staff seem to also be bartenders, so they generally are busting their butts keeping the bar customers and food customers helped. Service isn't necessarily prompt or attentive but they are all really friendly and helpful. Given these conditions, the service is good. The food is decent. I don't remember what I ordered on a previous visit, but I regretted not getting something cajun, as I am a huge fan and it is a lot of the menu. This time I did get the chicken and shrimp gumbo and it was OK, but kind of bland. The portions are reasonable. Next time I would probably get a burger or something more grill specific and probably have a better meal. read more

Not a bad place at all. We we're meeting at friend and she wanted to meet here. We went with a pizza and I got a side of cornbread. The pizza wasn't bad at all. Had a nice crunch to it and I definitely wanna try it again, but with extra toppings. The cornbread was ok. I like my cornbread very sweet but if you don't like it overly sweet, then this is perfect for you. The wonderful woman behind the bar was amazing. She kept checking on us a lot making sure we were good. Amazing customer service. read more

2nd time coming here and getting take out and again the food was great. Price is ok. I got the chicken and shrimp gumbo this time. Last time I dint remember but I remember it being good. read more

Delicious. I got the wings and the shrimp and chicken gumbo, and basically inhaled it as quickly as the portion sizes allowed. The wings were crunchy and the jerk sauce was interestingly cinnamon-y, the shrimp were huge and juicy, and the gumbo was just the right level of spice and salt and umami. Definitely coming back for more. I did pickup, but service was lovely and it looks like a nice little patio space to hang out on with a snack. read more

Passed through Columbus for the weekend to hang w some friends and took a chance to try their food. Mind you, this was takeout. The greens? On point. The mac and cheese? Thick, creamy, and delicious. Many places fail me in this area bc the roux is too runny. Theirs was def not. Chicken strips? Okay. I did not realize that I was going to get homemade, well-seasoned chicken strips. I missed that memo so it was a delight to eat these. The first bite to the last. Waffles? Very tasty and charmed me like donuts. And I really like donuts. Wings? Crisp and juicy. Clearly freshly made (thank you for respecting us takeout folks). The fries were wonderful, too. Sad I didn't get to try the catfish. This is a place I would return to without a doubt. I'm glad they're not in The SF Bay because I would act like a full fool, eating their food way too often. read more

If you would like to watch a game and have some soul food this is the spot! Great portion sizes. I had shrimp and chicken gumbo, cabbage, greens and shrimp and grits! Have enough food for next few days! Service was good. If you don't want to sit down, they have a take out side separate from dinner side. The owner Reggie was friendly, came out to talk to the customer in dining area. Next visit will try Philly wrap! read more

Was really good breakfast food late at night. Their menu seemed a little underrated for actually how good it tasted to me.

I was going to place In order from them on grubhub, but I had questions for the restaurant. And these guys won't even answer the phone so I ended up not ordering read more

Came in order Catfish dinner with 2 sides the Mac and cheese and Cajun coleslaw, Catfish was ok at best , Mac and cheese was the worst I ever had no type of flavor, coleslaw the same . And I also order Mozzarella sticks as an appetizer they came out not even hot I felt they were just sitting out . read more

Excellent gumbo, large portion, great flavors, very well executed. Make sure you get it with the cornbread.

The food was OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! Full flavor and cooked to perfection!! Highly recommend the chicken/shrimp and andouille sausage fettuccini, shrimp and grits and do not pass on the chicken wings! The staff is top notch and treated us like friends. The Vibe is high, we will definitely be returning for more!!! read more

This restaurant is on Henderson road in Columbus and they do serve food but the shal an

Needed some mac and cheese, and this looked like a BBQ place (ribs in some pix) so we stopped in. It's more Cajun/bar food; I don't think ribs are on the menu currently. There's a separate entrance for carryout, and dine-in is at the bar next door. We sat in there and got good service from the bartender, though she was pretty busy. The menu has burgers, pizza, wings, gumbo, seafood, etc. Baby K got mac and cheese, which was good but "not her style" (bowtie pasta, fancy cheese, a little black pepper.) Also fried corn on the cob, which we both loved. It says Cajun spice, but it was minimal and not too hot for her. I got the chicken gumbo, which was very good. Perfect rice, chicken and sausage, onions and peppers, and moderate heat. We got red beans and rice to go for Sweetie, and she said it was very good but a bit spicy for her. You're eating in a bar, so it's dark, and loud, with football games on, etc. Still, comfy, and not quite kid-unfriendly, anyway. The menu has lots of options. Prices are reasonable for the quality. I'd come back. read more

I was in the mood for wings and had noticed this place on Google a few months ago but never had the chance to try it. I ordered online for pickup but they ended up pushing the pickup time. Only one guy in the kitchen when I arrived. I waited a bit since I hadn't seen the email earlier that my food would be ready 30 min late. Once I got my food, a guy who was likely the owner asked how I had heard of them. I'm guessing they want to do more promo. They don't seem as well known yet but they should be! I had ordered the 6 wings with jerk sauce and a side of collard greens. Delicious! I was licking my fingers. The seasoning was so good! The wings aren't jumbo, it's doable to eat all 6. I would definitely order it again! The greens were too salty. Not sure if it was just an off day. The location is right next to another restaurant. But when you walk inside Ridiculous Eatz, it's just a pickup register. Most of the space is taken up by the kitchen. read more

Friendly service and WOW the food is awesome. I really wanted a burger cause I was exhausted from working and it hit the spot. Juicy, well seasoned, everything was fresh. The fries are perfect hand cut fries with seasoning. Good portions for the price. A gem in this area. A must try! read more

Small place - serves bar next door. Got the catfish and cornbread. Both were perfect along with great tartar sauce

What a great find in an unassuming shopping centered tucked in behind a dive bar! A friend is now bartending at Kelley's so we visited her and she pulled out menus for us to order some dinner. Lots of creole-inspired meals and bar eats. I ordered the shrimp and grits and it was delicious. A huge portion--I couldn't finish all of it. I'll definitely be back to try the Jambalaya! read more

I had the sausage gumbo. The menu said it was grilled jumbo shrimp with pork andouille sausage. Mine did not have any sausage in it. I called them and they said it was supposed to have sausage. So they had an oversight there. The shrimp was nicely done, but without the sausage the meal was just mostly rice. Not when I expected for $21. Be advised that they have some outdoor seating but there is no indoor seating. This is primarily a carry out place. I had a lot of trouble with their online ordering, getting it to take my credit card. read more

This place is just fantastic! We have eaten here three times and the food is terrific, the burgers are always perfect and the fries are the best I've had in a very long time. The greens are what sent me over the edge, absolutely delicious, I could eat them every day. I have not tried carryout yet although we plan to, we actually ended up here after a concert. We had reservations at a fancy place before the show and were severely disappointed and afterwards we were starving so we stopped in and were so happy we did. We plan to try everything on the menu, it is that good! read more

Have a hankering for Southern food then you definitely need to try this place out!! We ordered via DoorDash and it was perfect. Chicken and shrimp gumbo was heavenly. Everything was so flavorful and filling. They absolutely slayed the greens!! read more

I really enjoyed my food from here. The catfish was fried well crunchy but not overcooked. The greens were my favorite! They were so tasty. I could eat a big bowl. The red beans and rice wasn't what I was expecting but it was still pretty good. They had a mighty kick. I'm looking forward to trying more food from here. In order to get your food, they'll text you when to come in. It does appear to be a cloud kitchen so they just look for your food code and scan you out. I think it's pretty cool because you can get multiple restaurants from one spot. read more

Food was ok dry chicken like was pre cooked and sitting for hours. Me being a cook I would never have served that. If I wouldn't eat it I won't serve it. Everything else was good although my order was wrong. Delivery person couldn't find my address. Other than me walking out to get my order and the chicken being uneatable it was not a problem. Yes I'm being sarcastic read more

Food was fabulous! Great chicken and waffles. Chicken breading was light and waffles were crispy. Dining in requires eating in the attached bar. Service was pretty good, very friendly. Loved, loved, loved the collared greens and cabbage, and don't forget the sweet cakes!!!! read more

I guess they moved from a ghost kitchen; small place. The connected bar has indoor seating and patio area as well. Food was very good, and very fast service. We sat out front on the patio, owner checked on us a couple times to see if we needed anything. Not a huge menu, which is good thing. What they make they do very well. read more

Why did I wait so long to get carry out from here? I live close by, but my wife isn't a big fan of Cajun food. So I waited until she was out and I ordered some carry out for me. This place did not disappoint. I got six wings with buffalo sauce and greens, and shrimp gumbo. I couldn't eat it all at one sitting, but everything was incredible. Perfectly cooked and seasoned. The gumbo tasted like New Orleans. The greens were awesome. Loved it! read more

Ordered takeout and the food traveled really well and was delicious! Will definitely be ordering from here again.

Ridiculous Eatz has found a permanent home adjacent to a small bar. The ordering process currently still uses mobile ordering options, also even if you are seated at a table the serving is to go clam shells. The food is wonderful. Creative takes on classics such as bow tie pasta Mac and cheese or Cajun coleslaw. The catfish were amazing the Philly wrap filling and the fries were somehow both crisp and not at the same time. read more

I ordered the catfish dinner which was delicious-- the catfish was perfectly cooked and seasoned--the fries were delicious. The food arrived still hot / warm considering the distance. The red beans and rice were okay...probably will not order it again. The lemon crunch cake, to me, was a little dry...it was drier than the cornbread that I ordered... definitely will not order that again...was not worth $6.50; but all in all, I will definitely order from this restaurant again if I am unable to visit in person. read more

Holy macaroni! We chose the Ultimate Chicken Sandwich with fries, Ollie's Philly Steak Wrap with fries, and the Side Bundle. Every bite has been delicious! So delicious, in fact, I put my food down to write this review. Quality food, cooked well, seasoned perfectly, and delivered in the right packaging. If you're thinking about it, think no more - do it. Your taste buds and tummy will thank you; I promise! read more

Quickly became my favorite place to get food in Columbus. Chicken gumbo never fails to put a smile on my face. Consistently ridiculously delicious. read more

We took a chance on a whim and glad we found this spot! Bae got the shrimp and grits and jerk tossed wings. He loved the touch of sautéed collards in the shrimp and grits. The jerk sauce was not his fav but he tasted my wings without any sauce and plans to come back for more. I also got a yummy side salad (a real salad with plenty of green and veggies). Something so simple but pet peeve is when restaurants give you a bowl of iceberg lettuce with dressing and call it a salad. This was not the case here. Cucumbers, tomatoes, cheese and spring mix. I also tried the cinnamon waffles and they were perfect! Overall we took leftovers and enjoyed our meal. Oh and the server/bartender was amazing! Heads up this is a combo of a bar (Kelley's Pub) and Ridiculouz Eats does the food. We enjoyed the meal and drinks. read more

OK, this establishment was initially located out east, and they moved over here months ago. This is going to sound weird, but I initially did not give this place the time a day because I was gonna and a few different types of sandwiches from hamburgers to I believe they make a Philly sandwich. I must say everything was pretty good, and I was not a disappointment for a day. back by the name as well as the original location.. at this particular time however, it was really late and no other places were open and I was really hungry so when we looked on yelp, we saw that this place was open. The ambience of this restaurant is nonexistent. This is not a place where you would go to sit down and eat and enjoy the company of your friends now there is however a bar area on the other side of the restaurant, but it is not, the restaurants bar in particular I was greeted by a friendly staff/cook/hostess, as well as by the owner of the establishment who was gracious enough to give me a brief history of the establishment The food was very much on point so I got an order of wings and a few different types of sandwiches from hamburgers to I believe they make a Philly sandwich. I must say everything was pretty good, and I was not a disappointment. read more

The food here was fantastic. I ate lunch there and got takeout for dinner, plus it shared with a friend, so I've gotten to try the catfish platter, shrimp gumbo, mac and cheese, collards, red beans and rice, and cornbread everything was great. The catfish may be the best I've ever had. They are a little short handed and service can be on the slow side, so be prepared to wait. They do also have a patio to eat outdoors that looks like it's open year round. read more

I tried Ridiculous Eatz for the first time and it was an interesting experience. I did pickup and was not aware it was a warehouse location where other restaurants have pickup locations. When you walk in, you check in on the iPad by picking your name. Then you get in line to pick up your food. I got the snack ribs which came with Texas toast and fries. I also got a side of greens. I was so hungry I ate the toast and a piece of ribs before taking a pic lmao. I expected 3 ribs for the snack but it came with four. The ribs were okay I felt like they were a bit over cooked. They weren't falling off the bone tender and I had some trouble pulling them apart to eat. I also wish it had more barbecue sauce, but overall the flavor was good. It came with a lot of fries as you can see and they were good without ketchup! The greens were a bit salty but I enjoyed them. I recommend trying them regardless and plan to try them again but getting something else because their grits and gumbo looks good (my friends got these meals) and their portions are worth the price! read more

Didn't enjoy my food. I ordered gumbo and fries on the side, salmon, and collards. Let's start with the good stuff. The collards were very good but spicy. The fries were really soggy and don't deliver well. I'd suggest choosing a different container. The gumbo was terrible. It was super thick almost like a stew than a gumbo. It lacked flavor and was super bland. It was very expensive and I had to toss it in the trash. Salmon was decent. Rice was good and veggies. I probably won't order from here again though. read more
