We loved this place so much, we went back the next night. Best thing: both waiters were absolutely phenomenal--so attentive & anticipated our every need. Joshua & Walker - great job!! Food was delicious as well. I had the Chicken Wrap- delicious. The next night I had the lamb shank - melt-in-your-mouth tender and sooo flavorful!!!

Shrimp pasta &  Brussels sprouts

Food was good, and their cheese cake is super delicious, service was good and the ambience was ok but not the greatest.

Me and David enjoyed the medallions!

The disappointment: The partially deboned Springer Mt. chicken got jettisoned from the menu. EVERYTHING ELSE: Really good. Can't beat those filet medallions. That reduction they slather the steak with is just about as rich and delish as you'll find on the planet. Call me silly, but I am so addicted to the mashed potatoes. And, how can one complain when this dreamy Pisces named Jake brings you food? Crystal clear blue eyes make the whole evening better!

We stopped into the Loft twice on a recent visit to Columbus, both times snagging bar seats. Night one bestie and I came for dinner. I thought it was adorable when I inquired about the Georgia Peach Tea cocktail and our server said "it's really strong" and you have to "like Bourbon" SOLD! Not only do I like Bourbon, I LOVE Bourbon. Préférence is neat but cocktails are lovely too. If you, like me love Bourbon this drink is absolutely not strong at all. What it is, is delish!!! I had the southwest chicken wrap with sweet potato fries and their spicy rémoulade as a dipping sauce. My bestie had a chicken dish. I went for round two on their Georgia Peach Tea and brought my son for a round with me on a separate evening. Staff is friendly and food and drinks come out in a very timely manner. Highly recommend. Make a rezzie if you want to guarantee a table. I'd made one but we came at a different time both days as we were just doing our own thing so I released the table Saturday so we could just sit at the bar. Nice spot! Go for the George Dickel ;)

Good location for our 16-person group! The service was great, the drinks were strong, and the food was good.

Went here for dinner Tuesday evening. The place is packed inside, and they had no tables, so we chose to eat outside on the sidewalk tables. We started with the smoked queso and tortilla chips appetizer. This was sooo good!! For entrees, I had the fillet medallions with sides of green beans and mashed potatoes and my wife had the Cajun seafood pasta. Medallions were cooked perfectly, except they were way over-seasoned. My wife really enjoyed the Cajun seafood pasta. Got a slice of the Icebox cake to-go and it was total Yum!

I walked in with no reservation on a weeknight. I sat upstairs and the bar staff was very nice to me. The lighting in this place is very nice and makes for a great atmosphere to dine in. Most importantly, my filet mignon was cooked perfectly at medium. Along with the mashed potatoes and green beans it was a savory experience with the perfect amount seasoning and buttery texture. The cheesecake went back to my hotel with me and I had it for breakfast. Wow! Large slice, amazing home cooked texture and tasted wonderful! Even without the strawberries! Highly recommend if you want an amazing steak in Columbus!

Chicken and taters

Wow!! Super glad we were able to get a last-minute reservation. Our server, Colin? Connor? Sorry, I'm terrible with names, was absolutely amazing! My glass of tea remained full, his recommendation for the unstuffed chicken was spot on. The unstuffed chicken was absolutely delicious, the mashed potatoes were probably the best mashed potatoes. I've had in my entire life in a restaurant, seriously. The restaurant is quiet enough that you can have a full-blown conversation without screaming at each other. The menu was clearly marked with gluten-free items, and they had more than enough for me to choose from. The people that eat gluten at my table, enjoyed similar dishes - but also enjoyed the biggest slice, actually slab, of carrot cake. That carrot cake looks like it would feed an army of 20, obviously was homemade, and made me wish that I were not required to be gluten-free. Overall, this is an amazing restaurant and I can't wait to be in town again so that I can enjoy the deliciousness that they offer

Medallions, sweet potato, Buffalo dip.

Service was excellent. The server came multiple times to check on us and refill the drinks. The food was a bit disappointing. The sides were good, nothing special. But the steak came out cold and a bit overly seasoned. There was live music playing upstairs.

Perfect spot to stop and eat in downtown Columbus. Cute piano stairs that you walk up going into the restaurant. Service was really good and we packed for nothing! Had to send back the spicy chicken sandwich as it was a salty attack on taste buds according to my husband and that's saying a lot because he loves salt. Changed it out for a wrap which he said was pretty good. The truffled tater tots were AMAZING. Highly recommend those. I had the pork chop and grits which was really good as well but also a little on the salty side...but still good. Fun place! Would definitely come back!

My sister took me to this recently opened buffet on 1/3/25. The buffet recently opened…read moreapproximately three weeks ago. Upon arrival, there was a pretty huge crowd waiting in the lobby. We waited less than 10 minutes. We were greeted at the reception counter and were seated to our booth. I found it pretty odd that we didn't pay for our meals prior to seating. Matter of fact, it's a first that we've encountered this. All other buffets typically have you pay first. The buffet offers a variety of Asian cuisine such as Vietnamese, Japanese sushi/ramen, Mongolian, Chinese and more. Buffet prices are as follows: Weekday Monday-Friday Lunch $13.25 Dinner $16.75 Saturday & Sunday $16.75 All Day *Parties of 6 or more will have a 15% gratuity added to the bill. The restaurant is clean and bright. Service was on point. There were so many selections! We tried a variety of food, especially the seafood. Most of the food we tried were tasty and flavorful. We didn't try the Mongolian as we got super stuffed. LOL! The fruits were good. We both agreed that the desserts fell short. The assorted cakes were dry. The ice cream cups are available in the freezer come in vanilla, strawberry, chocolate and orange sherbet flavors. My sister and I really enjoyed our dinner. It was well worth the price of $16.75 each. We would return again.
