Cap…read moreCity has three Ohio locations -- Dublin, Gahanna, and Grandview Heights -- and overall, we had a really enjoyable dinner. Nicole ordered the Cafe Martini, made with Wheatley Vodka, cold brew, hazelnut, chocolate, and bitters, along with the Two Apple Spinach Salad with bacon, cheddar, candied pecans, red onion, tomatoes, and sherry mustard vinaigrette. Brian had a local draft beer and the BBQ Chopped Salad, which came loaded with BBQ chicken, crisp tortillas, pepper jack cheese, tomatoes, corn, red onions, and creamy cilantro ranch. I went with the non-alcoholic Peach Refresher, made with Seedlip Grove, fresh lemon, peach purée, honey, and ginger. For dinner, I had the Balsamic Chicken with buttermilk-chive mashed potatoes, sautéed spinach, roasted red peppers, caramelized mushrooms and onions, and lemon chicken jus. It was a hearty comfort-food meal with plenty on the plate. The restaurant has that classic diner-inspired feel but with an elevated menu and plenty of options for different tastes. We had a nice evening catching up over dinner and would definitely consider stopping by again when we're back in the Columbus/Dublin area.

It's only about 12 miles from my home in Westerville to Dublin but we don't often make the drive…read more Looking for something different tonight prompted us to head to Dublin and to the Dublin Village Tavern. The tavern is housed in a historic building that is over 100 years old. The building itself was worth the trip. The food, however, was the real highlight. I had an exceptionally good Shepherds Pie while my wife enjoyed the Irish Kettle dinner that came with corned beef, bangers, rashers. Cabbage, and potatoes cooked in a Guinness based broth. It was outstanding. Service was very good. It was a delightful evening.

I stopped by here a couple nights ago with one of my coworkers while on an out-of-town work trip…read more Despite being a Monday, the place was actually pretty busy. Regardless, we were seated right away. We were given a spot at a high top inside but adjacent to the open windows for some fresh evening air and a nice cooling breeze. Unfortunately, service throughout the night was a little spotty. The first round of drinks took a while to come out, the app went missing, our server (who seemed slightly less than enthused all night) took the liberty of snagging an extra one for us, and then our entrees came out right at the same time. I started with the sunrise mojito. Being a bit of a rum snob, I am particularly picky when it comes to rum-based drinks and this one did not disappoint. Probably one of the best takes on a mojito I've had in quite a while. I eventually followed that up with the peach bourbon smash, which was also tasty but pretty heavy on the peach and less on the bourbon. To get started on food, we ordered the street corn nachos. Now, I do love street corn, but something about corn on top of nachos on paper doesn't exactly sound like my personal first choice. However, since my coworker was putting the food on his company card, he went that route. Man, what a mistake I made in my assumption. Absolutely amazing. Gooey cheese, excellent flavors, and not too much to fill you up. My coworker got the shrimp capellini, which looked excellent and he agreed it was solid. I opted for the crispy chicken sandwich (a gochujang aioli? Come on). The sandwich was delicious. The chicken was indeed crispy but also quite juicy. The fries were also delicious being slightly soft, slightly crisp, and not too salty. All in all, a couple service hiccups aside, this was a really fantastic place. I definitely will be sure to make my way back here if I find myself on another work trip for sure!

The bartender was a bit slow and lacked a lot of people skills. Never asked how things were before, during or after eating. But that's the only reason this place got 4 stars. Dinner was delicious. Ordered the Miso Salmon. The fish was okay, nothing special and surprisingly small (I'm thinking 4oz), but the dish was delicious. Never had carrot hummus before, but it really worked on this plate. EVERYTHING on the plate worked together very well! Could have put shit on a shingle over that plate and it would have been delicious. After waiting a bit for flash to drop the check, I realized it was in a bar glass in front of me. Nice to see my Mich Ultra was only $3!

Top 5 restaurant in central Ohio. Well deserved. Nice menu, but your choices are limited. I was…read moresurprised, of the five entree choices, two were pork (we don't eat pork) and no chicken option. We settled on the steak and black cod, although we really did not want red meat. Our server Kelcie, who was 5* by the way, helped us in navigating all the intricacies to the ingredients. Lots of nuance to the menu. Our choices: lamb appetizer, black cod, sirloin, and chocolate mousse; each were tasty, presented well, and excellent dishes. The potato cake on the steak was very different and well done. Our Old Fashion had a nice taste. The place is very small and reservations are a must.

The small cozy atmosphere was a delight to enjoy a wonderful meal and conversation. The drinks were exceptionally great and since I'm coming from California, very affordable. The food was delicious, especially the braised beef croquets, chicken friend mushrooms, whipped ricotta, and sourdough. The pork collar and the tare squash were beautifully presented and tasted wonderful. I requested the sommelier to recommend a wine that would compliment our order and the Domaine de Ferrand Chateauneuf - du- Pape a fine French wine from the Rhone Valley was our selection. This was a beautiful bottle and fine selection. John, our server was the perfect gentlemen and server with great personality and full of customer service.

When we arrived for our reservation, we were seated in the back corner of the restaurant, but the kitchen. Normally, I have no qualms with this. However, there was a noticeable difference in temperature here and it was like sitting in a sauna for some parts of the dinner. The service was friendly, but she seemed very busy, so we weren't able to ask for things such as the cappuccino that my sister order that never arrived. We were not charged for the cappuccino, but the lack of attention to detail here was surprising. Finally, the food was quite variable. Individually- my husband's chicken Parmesan sandwich was excellent, and probably the only thing we'd want to return for. Great flavor and very well made. 10/10. I got the short rib- this was a disappointment. The beef was tough and chewy, not the melt in your mouth, soft texture I was expecting (especially having read other reviews). Very much a let down, and I know I can get better short rib at other restaurants. My sister got the crab cake entree and my sister-in-law got the miso salmon entree. Both were good, but nothing incredibly special or unexpected. One thing we did appreciate was how gluten free accommodating the restaurant is. Finally, we shared the lobster Mac and cheese. This was a huge let down to all of us who tried it- very few lobster pieces dispersed, and the dish was not cheesy at all. It was quite dry, and needed more cheese or bechamel to offset the crunch from the breadcrumbs on top. I love lobster Mac and like to try the dish at various restaurants- this is probably the worst of the ones I've tried in Columbus so far. Overall, we are not in a hurry to return to tucci's.
