Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Short North - Arena District

I haven't seen Houlihans this busy In a while! They did a great job tonight. Food was great and service was awesome too

Had a great evening with exceptional service by Alex and very good food. We had the curry mussels, tater tots, baked oysters and Harbor salad. All were quite unique and very tasty. We especially enjoyed the Harbor salad which we split among the table. We also had the punch bowl which was a nice drink option but required some extra effort to finish despite splitting between 4 of us. Probably better for a party of 6. Overall it was a great evening at The Pearl.

Very nice happy hour excellent food and great service at a reasonable price made for a nice evening

Food and dinner was great. We came as group of six before a concert at nationwide. The restaurant was a 6 minute walk to Nationwide. The restaurant only seats full parties, so we did have to wait a few minutes for our party to arrive to be seated. Once our party was there we were set promptly. The ambiance and open kitchen setting was wonderful, great music too. It was perfect for entertaining a group for an evening out. Excellent cocktails and the food was phenomenal. We had the parrillada and all the meat was cooked to perfection. Service was great! We really enjoyed watching the chef run the line and engage with us as guests. We will definitely be back.

As always, Michael and Mo are exceptional. The food was prepared flawlessly, as usual. We consistently find pleasure in dining there.
