    Dear Parker cousins wishing me a Happiest 60th  Birthday!!!!

    I celebrated my 60th Birthday brunch here with Family & Friends on December 3rd...It was a nice ambiance and the food menu was pretty good. I ordered the Shrimp and Grits it was delicious! Bon Appetit'

    Pumpkin seed pesto pasta with steak
    Sarah F.

    First, the service was wonderful and our waitress did ask my husband to check his steak before she left us so he could make sure it was cooked the way he wanted. He had ordered a medium rare New York Strip but it came raw and cold in the middle. They cooked it more for him but it also had some hard grizzle and unrendered fat. He also chose the seasonal grilled veggies as one of his sides and what you see is what he got, 2 slices of zucchini and 1 slice of squash...it was kind of absurd. Brussel sprouts were delicious, however, he definitely felt like his meal was not worth the cost. The beef empanada appetizer and my pumpkin pesto pasta with steak were delicious. We also got key lime pie for dessert and it was more of a tart and very small. Not sure the dessert was worth the cost either. The restaurant was almost completely empty while we were there as most people were upstairs in the bar area watching a football game. Overall, our experience was a bit disappointing but it was okay.

    I've been wanting to try Wicked Hen since last year and we finally enjoyed them last month. My son had yet another military graduation and we celebrated over brunch. This may be one of my favorite restaurants in Columbus. The food was sooooo yummy! I started with a mimosa and we shared the fried green tomatoes and an order of deviled eggs. I had the shrimp and grits (because, well... shrimp and grits are my all time FAV!) and my son had the chicken tendies. My Mom enjoyed a salad. Our meal was absolutely outstanding. Service was great! Highly recommend.

    Steak Pesto Pasta Lunch Deep South Duck Egg Rolls Brunch
    Briyick S.

    Went on a Sunday and it was not really busy. Only about two other parties. The food did take a long time to get to us. Once we got it, it wasn'5 really all that great. I would rate the food about 3/5. The spot is very cute to come sit and chat. They also have a chessboard with some chairs. I probably would not visit again.

    Shrimp and Grits Brunch

    I dropped in for lunch today and found the place delightful. Simple ambiance, solid food. I ordered the Shrimp and Grits, which was served with spinach and garlic bread. The server was attentive. I'll definitely go back to try the Duck Egg Rolls. I also hear they have a lamb burger on the dinner menu, which is right up my alley.

    To visit on a Wednesday around 1:15 pm and walk into an establishment with two other guests present was quite surprising. When I left at 1:40 pm, there were still only three guests and that included MUAH! I was pleasantly surprised by how tasty and filling the shrimp and grits were. Because there weren't many patrons present, I didn't expect to wait long and I didn't. I would usually order a glass of wine or mimosa; however, I was on a lunch break and I don't drink on the job. I didn't know this establishment was open for brunch on Saturdays and Sundays so I look foreword to returning, and honestly, it doesn't matter if the place is packed or empty. I have more dishes to try and I think this would be a great location to host a meet up!

    Valentines Dinner for Two. Enjoyed the ambiance, delicious food and drinks. The Scallops wrapped in Bacon was Awesome. Kudos to the Chef!! Ask for Terri to serve you. She is not only very attentive but just a very pleasant, down to earth waitress. Made us feel right at home!!! Thanks Wicked Hen

    This place was absolutely amazing!!! Dined here with my mom and she loved it even more than me! We ordered the salmon special and the food was some of the best fish I've ever had. My server Anjaly was super kind and quick so I give the service a 10/10. Plus the ambiance or the "vibe" and younger people say was really cute. It's a clean southern kinda vibe I guess. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND

    Filet with crab cake
    Ben J.

    This was a great homey place that felt more like a home. There was a nice selection of items on both the food and drink menu. The waitress was very friendly and offered the special, which was a 6oz filet and crab cake with pasta and zucchini. The sear on the steak was nice, and the crab cake was tender and sizeable. Overall, it's a good place for a quiet dinner out.

    Deviled egg with mini bagels
    David T.

    My wife and I visited Wicked Hen for the first time on a recent date night. The restaurant is nice, but they seem to be suffering from the labor shortage. We ate upstairs, which was a bit chilly, and even though it was less than half-full, there were delays because there was only one person working the entire floor. He was a new employee and nice but obviously frazzled. The food itself was good but pricey, which was not unexpected. We had the pumpkin seed encrusted trout and chicken Marsala, along with deviled egg mini-bagels. All were very good, but the chicken portion left my wife hungry. My wife also loved the Water Moccasin drink, while I liked the Porch Pounder. At $14, the drinks were very expensive for a 4-ounce glass. It's definitely a special occasion place. Hopefully, they can get their labor difficulties resolved so that the outing can be even more special.

    While visiting my old stomping grounds I realized how much the city has grown, especially in terms of food choices. I decided on Wicked hen mainly because of the starters. They definitely caught my eye. The two I chose for lunch were the pork belly and the duck egg rolls. The duck egg rolls were spot on. Very flavorful With a hint of spice. The pork belly was also flavorful the okra helped cut through the richness. The 1 of 4 of the pork belly serving was a bit too well done, but overall a great dish. I would definitely come back and try other dishes

    Ordered the chicken and waffles. It was mid. Service was good. Wasn't busy midday Saturday. Kind of cold in there for no reason.

    A great hidden gem. Good food and service. The ambiance is low key as it is rarely packed.

Dirty & Unkept: The sidewalk leading to the door is nasty with gum spots and is almost black. Needs a pressure washing bad. The inside normally numbers of unbused tables. 2. Loud atmosphere: The noise level makes it almost impossible to carry on a conversation without yelling. The restaurant area is more of a bar atmosphere than a dining experience. 3. Indifferent Staff: I have observed too many standing around gazing at their phones, or cutting up with fellow staff. They should be helping to clean tables and provide a better dining atmosphere. Overall, it is simply not a pleasant experience at Cheddars like it was until about 3 or 4 years ago. When they first opened, the place was constantly cleaned and maintained. With the front doors and handles are so dirty, it make one wonder how the kitchen area looks.
