The brussels sprouts were probably some of the best restaurant brussels sprouts I've had in a while. Perfectly crispy on the outside, well cooked-through on the inside with while still maintaining a nice crunch. The red wine reduction was delicious. The butternut squash ravioli were delectable; rich, savory yet sweet, flavorful, the perfect balance of texture - exceeded my expectations. The Apple Glazed Salmon also exceeded my expectations. The flavor profile and texture combination was ON POINT!! Well pleased with this meal. The sweet potato friesssss - why were these so good?! I hadn't had sweet potato fries that tasted that great in a while. Our server Nathanael was very sweet, kind, and took care of us. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience here :)

There were 6 of us for dinner that night and we all enjoy and appreciate fine dining. I can confidently say that the people at Plas' take their food very serious! Everything we ordered was very well cooked and absolutely delicious. Our waiter, Scott, was very attentive and knowledgeable. Giving Plas a strong recommendation for those looking for a fun and unique high-end dining experience in Columbus.

We went for my birthday dinner, tried a handful of items and every single one of them was exceptional! I cannot wait to go back when I’m able to enjoy drinks paired with my meal. I’m positive I will before then for the steak, Brussels sprouts and butter cake.

    Another Columbus, OH staple to visit—especially the one in Upper Arlington. Fantastic food with a local vibe. Always get the Volcano for an appetizer! The Prime Rib special was excellent and cooked perfectly. The Bolognese and burgers were also amazing, and don't miss the side, loaded baked potato.

    We celebrated my husband’s birthday and were thoroughly impressed! As never dining at this CM establishment it easily shot to the top of a highly rated favorite. Our server Ethan was exceptional who provided a nice, experienced flow to our evening. The food was outstanding, oh those parm green beans, the steaks, the sides, the dessert…oh my!!! And do yourself a favor and do not skip on the cocktails…so tasty and a satisfying long pour! The decor was fascinating and the atmosphere was fun albeit a little loud however that would not hinder us from returning.
