First time here when I came for the Restaurant Week menu. It is in a strip mall at the corner of Powell and Sawmill and is a fairly large space with a patio. I was early enough for happy hour and had a wonderful Cucumber Gimlet. The service was excellent. I ordered the House Chopped Salad, Lake Erie Walleye, and Lemon Blueberry Panna Cotta. The salad tasted really good and fresh. The Walleye too. I liked the fennel salad with cilantro lime rice. I ate half to take some home and not be too full for dessert. The panna cotta was good, mostly because of the topping. It is not something I would order again, being kind of bland, but to no fault of the kitchen. I'm not a custard-y kind of gal, but wanted to try it. I would definitely come back here for another meal. read more

I've been meaning to go to this restaurant for a while. We went on a Saturday evening and there were plenty of tables available. The ambiance is low key but nice. Everyone from the hostess to our server was very friendly and nice. They have a full bar and a decent selection of beers. My wife and I decided to share their whipped ricotta appetizer and their French onion burger. The appetizer came with thinly cut crusted baguette. The ricotta cheese was mixed with some strawberry flavor. It wasn't bad but I would have preferred it to be thicker in constituency. The burger and fries came out perfectly cut into half portions for each of us, which was a really nice touch. We had asked for the burger to be cooked medium rare and I think it came out more like a medium well. The patty itself was a bit dry. This may be a one off issue and we hope to return to try some other dishes. read more

This was our second visit to Two Rivers as a family of four. Overall, I do like this restaurant and really hope the best for them as service has always been friendly and efficient and the food is generally good overall. The key issue I had during this past trip was ordering the Yaki Udon noodles. If they would have just called this dish "Asian noodles", I wouldn't have had such an issue, but the noodles are basically Italian linguini in an Asian style sauce. If dish is called Yaki Udon Noodles, I don't think it's asking too much to expect to get Udon noodles. To me it would be ordering "gnocchi" and getting penne pasta... okay maybe a stretch, but still - the title item should be on the plate. I get chefs should be able to have their own take on dishes (I do this myself), but the way it is listed on the menu should be changed. My wife and son both enjoyed the three cheese tortellini, so at least that was worth it. My daughter ordered chicken fingers, fruit, and fries off of the kids menu and it was a nice children's portion for the price. Again, I hope to return eventually, but likely not soon as I'm hesitant to trust this menu. read more

We stopped in after visiting the zoo for lunch, with a party of four adults and two kids. We were seated immediately upon entering on a Saturday around 3pm. This is a very bright lighted and well taken care of establishment with nice clean bathrooms as well. We received decent service, and received our food in a timely manner. We started with the Burnt Ends Poutine, which is a shareable sized loaded French fries with Smoked Brisket, Cheese Curds, Beef Gravy and perfectly pickle red onion on top. For 15$ I Never had fries this way but it certainly didn't disappoint and was very interesting. Everyone decided on burgers. Two of us got the French onion burger and two of us got the All American Burger. The French onion burger consisted of very very caramelized onions, three different cheeses, mayonnaise, lettuce, tomato and a toasted bun with butter accompanied by french fries. The caramelized onions were so creamy and tasty. It really brought the whole burger together. The All-American Burger consisted of grilled onions, American cheese, a special sauce, bacon, lettuce, tomato on a buttered toasted bun with fries. The burgers were pretty big in patty size and we all finished our food with no problems. I'm glad we came here instead of spending over 100$ on 3 meals at the zoo!! read more

Stopped in for a quick bite, after a Friend said it's a must try. TheBurnt ends Poutine was what I wanted to try and as a shareable oh my! It had fresh fries, topped with cheese curds, smoked brisket and a rich beef gravel all and lets not forget the pickled red onions. This was some of the best poutine I've had in Columbus area. Nothing special about the salad pretty basic which surprised me, but not bad. Restroom were spotless! read more

Took my son and daughter here for dinner . Was a sat night and they were busy . Was very noisy inside so we ate out on the patio which was alittle noisy too , but nice. I had the oven roasted porchetta which I had before and is very good , but needs some gravy with it which they brought me some when I ask for it . My son had the Reuben sandwich and she had the salmon . All very good . I had enough left over to bring home for another meal. We will be back read more

I had the Fall Harvest Salad, and it was delicious! The lettuce was so tender! Where do they get such tender lettuce? Service was good as well. read more

Amazing how much liquor this place had, but the food was absolutely delicious. Its decor was beautiful too. We felt the bar was staffed with a bartender who was very friendly and knowledgeable of their crafted drinks served with a lot of smiles. read more

Idk what it is. I don't like this place. Portions are very inconsistent and have definitely diminished. I've tried it at least 8 times. Bar is so inconsistent it's scary. Drinks are not worth it at all except one time we had a bartender that knew what she was doing. Food is just so par. Is blah blah blah and over priced. I don't like this place. They have so many staff and it just doesn't translate. read more

My mom & I tried this restaurant out for lunch. It is a quaint little spot located at the end of a strip mall. We got the burnt ends poutine fries for appetizer to share. It was a huge portion & it was amazing. The cheese curds with the gravy complimented one another perfectly. I really wanted to try the french onion burger but decided on the Chop salad instead. All of the burgers passing our table looked fantastic. Our server was good & everyone was friendly. Prices were about average read more

Two Rivers Restaurant - Burnt Ends Poutine - American Near Me - Powell, Ohio

We stopped in for an appetizer to share and picked the burnt ends poutine...AMAZING!! It's a meal on its own. The beef was tender and flavorful with perfect melty cheese curds, perfectly seasoned gravy and yummy tangy pickled onions. Perfect combination. We had a very friendly and attentive bartender ( we sat at the bar ), the restaurant had just a few customers at this time because of it being about 30 min before happy hour at 3pm. It's a "chic" and rustic modern style with an open kitchen at the back of the restaurant. Too bad we live in another state, visiting family in the area, from but we will definitely come back here next time we are in town! read more

Reasonable prices for good food. I had the ginger tofu with chicken instead. It was tasty but a little too salty for me. Sandwiches come with fries which are thick and crunchy. The turkey croissant was good but had too much mayonnaise. Highly recommend the apple pie bread pudding with ice cream. Service was great but the place is really loud when the tables are full. read more

Love this place .. great menu choices, great food great service . Nice ambiance definitely worth the trip

Came here with my wife for our date night due to the Yelp reviews. Pleasantly surprised. Restaurant is VERY clean, interesting menu with a selection of appetizers, salads, sandwiches & entrees. I had the Caesar salad w/grilled chicken. Salad was fresh with perfectly cooked chicken that was tasty. My wife had the pork carnitas bowl, which was a healthy portion and delicious according to my wife. Two Rivers has been open two years, which is amazing as we weren't even aware of it. According to our waitress, they hear that a lot. They do take reservations, but it really wasn't needed. A mix of high tops, tables and a nice bar. Bright airy interior and a covered exterior patio. read more

Pleasant atmosphere, quick & friendly service. We went there for Restaurant Week so I chose the chopped salad, fish with salsa and rice and strawberry tart for dessert. The salad was nice & fresh. The fish was kind of fishy tasting, unfortunately, and some of the grains of rice were hard. They were so hard that I spit them out to make sure they were actually rice and not something else. They were indeed grains of hard (as in very under-cooked) rice. I took the dessert home for my husband and he said it was excellent. I wasn't wowed by the dinner as I expect to be during Restaurant Week. read more

Wow the owners did this place right. High ceiling restaurants are typically a difficult place for us to talk and enjoy our time. Two Rivers has enough acoustics panels throughout to avoid the need to speak loudly to your partner or guest. The food was above normal for what we thought we were getting, which was typical bar fair. Hubby had a smashburger, sauce on the side. Next time will definitely put the sauce (think of a slight dill pickle, spicy aioli taste) on the burger. It was cooked perfectly and very very juicy. I had the roasted tomato soup. Vibrant, parm cheese full bodied flavor. We will be back and we will bring guests! read more

Friendly staff and always nice overall, great aura. Must be a chill staff that makes it better

Stumbled in on our way from Dublin to Marysville. It was very quiet at 3pm on a Saturday. The hamburger was 5* according to my mate and my chopped salad was very good too. The dressings are made in-house. Zeke did a great job and was very personable. I'm not sure we will return since we live on the East Side, but locals should give them a go. read more

We went out of our way to order as many things as we could. Hey, I am often Yelp Elite! Have to take care of all you readers. This is the greatest restaurant gift to Powell we could ask for. As a foodie I have been wishing I didn't have to go into the inner belt of 270 for my palate. Two Rivers is shining. I notice some little things like a chef getting fresh blackberries and working it into the drink, salad and dessert menu. That's not typical of "the burbs". The food and presentation is excellent. For the price points they hit, this is glorious. The kitchen staff show some real pride in their work. Little details like some avocado mousse on top of a salmon dish stand out as a nice accompaniment, not a dollop. The staff is still getting to know each other and learn their dance moves, but I'm just trying to defend my reputation for anyone that wants to challenge my 5 stars. If you are in that boat, order one of their craft cocktails and look me in the eye without smiling like a kid on a hot summer day getting ice cream. Thank you for coming to Powell. My only ask is to think about the Vegans and Vegetarian crowd a tad more. Hats off to everyone that supported my family having a lovely dinner at a very cool bistro. read more

Service and seating was quick for brunch on a Sunday. Food was good and came out quick. Waiter was super nice.

What an amazing experience. We visited Two Rivers this evening for dinner. It was our first time. It was awesome. The entire experience was top notch. Our server, Rory, she was amazing. Gave numerous recommendations and was so efficient and quick. The food was top level and the restaurant atmosphere was incredible. We met the owner, Mike, and he was so down to earth and so appreciative. I also noticed that every associate working was helping each other. It was such a well oiled machine. My chix sandwich was perfect. Not heavy and just the right portion size. My wife's salad was extremely fresh and flavorful. Dessert, well let's just say, added a few pounds on me...lol. Apple Pie Bread Pudding. Need I say more? Thanks to the entire team at Two Rivers. We will be back and will bring our friends with us. Great Job!! read more

The food, cocktails and service were amazing. The patrons, literally the other customers -- a Tuesday night, happy-hour, entitled without a reservation crowd -- were a little atrocious but the restaurant handled them with ease and grace. We had a fantastic meal and once those customers left, the ambiance was fantastic. Highly recommend making a reservation (the food is that good) but there's also open bar seating for walk-ins. The neighborhood skews older and so did many of patrons, but again the restaurant navigated everything with expert care. The vibe of the restaurant is younger, hipper than the guests or the location. Highly suggest ordering the Blueberry Colins, salted bread and burrata too! For dinner, filling up on amazing appetizers, I had the Catie's Apple Avocado Salad. It was such a great choice. The portions were huge in the best way. We left happy and stuffed. read more

**Review: Two Rivers - Powell, Ohio** A surprisingly delightful stop that turned two weary travelers into instant fans* After a long weekend of work and an even longer drive home ahead of us, my friend and I found ourselves in that familiar Sunday-evening limbo: hungry, tired, and absolutely unwilling to settle for bar food or a two-hour dining commitment. Enter Two Rivers in Powell -- a place my friend had heard "great things" about. (And for once, the mysterious *they* who leave great reviews were absolutely right.) The moment we stepped inside, we were greeted by a hostess with a smile so warm it could've been bottled and sold as a wellness supplement. Despite the restaurant being impressively full, we were seated quickly at a cozy table toward the back. What happened next could only be described as a masterclass in hospitality choreography. Two Rivers uses a "team service" approach -- and unlike many restaurants where that phrase means "everyone is responsible so no one actually shows up," here it was executed with precision. A young man appeared instantly to fill our water glasses, let us know Dom would be our server, and asked if we wanted anything besides water. French Martinis were ordered without hesitation. Not even two minutes later, Dom arrived -- friendly, confident, and with the kind of calm assurance that tells you your evening is in good hands. He let us know our cocktails were being prepared and asked if we'd dined there before. When we said no, he promised we wouldn't be disappointed. Spoiler: Dom does not make empty promises. Since it was nearing 7 p.m. and neither of us wanted a heavy meal, we opted to share a couple of appetizers: the mushroom tartes and the spinach artichoke dip. We sipped our cocktails (which were excellent -- the kind of French Martini that makes you briefly consider speaking with a French accent) and enjoyed the lively but comfortable atmosphere. The appetizers arrived quickly, and this is where Two Rivers truly won us over. **Mushroom Tartes** The clear winner of the evening. The crust was buttery, delicate, and baked to golden perfection. The filling -- a rich, savory mushroom mixture -- was warm, aromatic, and beautifully balanced. The drizzle of balsamic added just the right touch of brightness. We both had the same thought after the first bite: *Should we have ordered two orders?* (Yes. The answer is yes.) **Spinach Artichoke Dip** Creamy, flavorful, and made with cream cheese -- which, in my personal food pyramid, is absolutely its own category. The dip was indulgent without being heavy, and the toasted French bread was a lovely pairing. I personally prefer my bread a touch softer, but even with that note, the dish was still a hit. **Final Thoughts** Two Rivers delivered exactly what we needed: quick service without feeling rushed, elevated food without the fuss, and hospitality that felt genuine rather than scripted. Dom and the entire team made our brief stop feel like a thoughtfully curated dining experience. This is a family-owned and operated restaurant, with Dad leading the culinary charge as head chef -- and you can taste that pride and craftsmanship in every dish. If you find yourself in Powell -- whether you're a local or two tired travelers just trying to get home -- Two Rivers is absolutely worth the detour. And do yourself a favor: get the mushroom tartes. Maybe get two. Specials to Check Out **Join Them for Happy Hour** Monday through Friday, 3-6 p.m. at the bar: - 1/2 off appetizers - $2 off draft beer - $3 off wine by the glass - $3 off house cocktails read more

Tried this place for the first time. The restaurant was very nice inside sitting at the end of a strip shopping center. Food was good. I had a crispy chicken sandwich but requested the chimichuri spread on the side. I ended up enjoying the spread and will include it again. The chicken breast was good but felt a bit smaller than comparable sandwiches I have had other places. The service was outstanding. Rory was an excellent server. When I return (want to try the brunch) I plan to ask for her. Place is a need to try. Seemed like it was on the pricier side of what I might expect, so be prepared. read more

Highly recommend! We visited on a busy Friday night, but the service remained top-notch. They are very accommodating for gluten-free needs; my server even confirmed with the kitchen that my meal was safe, which I truly appreciated. The pot roast was outstanding, perfectly prepared and flavorful. The rest of our party loved the smash burger and steak frites as well. We are already looking forward to our next visit! read more

A Hidden Gem for Lunch (and Happy Hour!) This place is a perfect little lunch spot! The interior is super cute and inviting, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a meal. I had a cup of soup--which was surprisingly generous in size--and the turkey club on toasted sourdough. The sandwich was absolutely delicious: fresh, flavorful, and huge! I'd definitely come back for dinner, especially since they offer happy hour from 3-6 PM. Highly recommend checking this place out! read more

Great brunch this past Sunday. Lots of choices from breakfast burgers, eggs, biscuits and sandwiches.

Food was excellent. I had the double smash burger and it was delicious. My wife got the reuben and gave me a taste. Wow! It was probably one of the best tasting reubens I've ever had. Service was excellent as well. Would highly recommend Two Rivers. read more

Went there for the first time. I had Catie's Avocado salad. The chicken was grilled to perfection. Juicy and tasty! Kudos to the chef! The lettuce was super crisp like it has just been picked. The salad had a small amount of goat cheese, avocado, cucumber and farro which I was ok with because it fit into my macros for the day. Dressing was too thick, so I swapped it out for the Balsamic. I would definitely go back. The one down side was it was very noisy. Concrete floors, high ceilings, and a pretty full restaurant made for a very loud lunch. One more point - the floors were clean and not sticky, and that is a huge plus for me! read more

Drinks are great! I always sit at the bar and service is excellent. Ambiance depends on the day. Some days great with low noise. Other days packed and noisy. Still an enjoyable place but menu is limited. read more

Ambiance on a cold winter afternoon with mellow, nostalgic Xmas music is perfect. Server Hanna is prompt, helpful, and nice. French Onion Burger and Chicken Soup were both excellent. All-in-all, just what we were looking for on a holiday shopping day. read more

Two of my all time favorite foods are a Reuben sandwich and a Caesar salad. Both are simply outstanding at Two Rivers Restaurant. When we visit I still look at the menu but always revert back to the Reuben and the Caesar because they're that good. read more

I'd probably go 3.5 stars if I could because our food was mixed in results. The tuna crudo was very disappointing, so bland, it was just the tuna not even with salt (very good tuna though). I had the soup of the day which was pasole and it was good. I had the French onion burger and it was very good, definitely had the French onion flavor and perfectly cooked but the "three cheese" part didn't ring true for me. My wife had the apple salad with salmon (tiny portion of salmon) and it was good. Our service was great and the ambience is very casual which was what we were seeking, the drinks were good too. So I'd summarize to say a casual place with pretty good food and very convenient for us in Powell so we will likely be back. read more
