- TTonyPittsburgh / Western PA •2 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoMy partner and I went to Columbus for an overnight and booked the Guild House for dinner. To say the least, our experience there made our entire weekend. We loved it. It was fine dining at its best and a very European style dinner. The service was excellent in that our server took care of us but allowed us to enjoy our meal and only came over when necessary. The food was presented beautifully and was very good and in just the right size servings. My partner had the Cavatelli and i had the Joyce Farms chicken. Both were excellent! We shared the Caramel apple for dessert. Excellent as well! A visit that made our entire weekend! Strongly recommend eating here! THANKS!More infoThe Guild House - ColumbusPrice: Expensive• American• Columbus•4.8
- BBigdaddyljfsColumbus •8 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoWe went to the Chalet downstairs and it was awesome. Decorated like a ski lodge, it was a great atmosphere, and the cocktails were very good and unique. Our server Michael was fantastic. Highly recommend a trip here before the Chalet goes away until next Christmas.More infoForno Kitchen and BarPrice: Moderate• American• Short North - Arena District•4.8

It is truly a lovely evening…the atmosphere, the service, the food and drinks.

- BBruceVIPColumbus •7 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 23, 2024What a fantastic experience! The restaurant has such a comfortable vibe. All that’s missing is a hearth and a roaring fire. The service was excellent! The food was amazing! We started with the full charcuterie, which was delicious. All of our meals were so flavorful and beautifully presented. Shrimp and grits, lamb shank, short ribs, and fried chicken. The pumpkin spice crème brûlée was a great way to end the meal. We cannot wait to come back for another great experience!More infoAlqueriaPrice: Expensive• American• Columbus•4.8
