    We came here on one of the busiest days of the year, checked in early, and went to the dock bar out back to wait for a table. The bar was busy but had enough seats for our large party. Service was friendly and quick. We enjoyed a round of drinks before our table was ready and we moved inside. We were sat at exactly our reservation time. Server was great, and attentive. Food and drinks were outstanding and the vibe of the restaurant was perfect. Definitely want to return in the future and will always recommend to friends.

    Another wonderful evening at The Columbia. They were extremely accommodating when it was impossible for us to find a place to park (perhaps don't go to Celebration at all on holiday evenings). They held our reservation and sat us promptly as soon as we arrived although I must say several disgraceful entitled newcomers were hassling the staff about wait times. They kept their cool much better than I would have. Service was excellent, food was delicious, drinks were well-made. We always leave asking "why don't we come here more often" and we will. We love The Columbia and we loved this Christmas meal.

    We have not dined here in a very long time, too long to remember. There are some changes as they always served marinated olives warmed if requested but last night it was an issue. Disappointing. The cauliflower salad was as good as I alway remembered it and much larger than I expected. It has been on the menu a long time and is one of my favorites. My husband loved the pasta Nero with lobster. We try not to focus on desserts but there is no way you can avoid the butterscotch pudding another signature dish from La Luce. Biscotti were superb and far better than Nona’s.
