    Always great food and amazing service. Even on a busy Valentine's Day weekend, the staff was on top of serving and making sure we had what we needed. The tater tots were incredible. Also the Cuban and Harbor Salad were very delicious!

    The shakshouka for brunch was phenomenal! Great atmosphere, service and food. Quincy was an excellent server and I’d come back just for this dish again and again. Everyone loved their brunch choices, but agreed that mine was the best!

    This visit was kind of different. It was my 2nd time coming here and of course we were served nicely. Although I noticed the food was very salty. I had wine so it's kind of helping with that but it literally stings our tongue. We got the burger, wings, thai mussels and clam chowder. Overall it was nice, except for that salty food.

    Went with some friends and it was their first time eating there. My wife is a bit picky, but she enjoyed the slow roasted short rib

    We enjoyed three styles of oysters, and had a great dinner. Arctic char was my choice, and she had a great salad. Service was on point—pleasant and efficient.

    I took one of my good business clients (who had come into Columbus for the week) to dinner at The Pearl. He was very impressed with the food, ambiance, energy and service. You can never go wrong with a Cameron Mitchell restaurant to impress out of town guests!
