    We were really happy with our experience. We were in Columbus for the weekend and saw this place had great reviews and looked beautiful. Everything was amazing from the ambiance, service, and food. We were celebrating a birthday and they let us pick out a dessert free of charge. The wine selection is great and our server John helped me pick the perfect glass. I had a filet and my fiancé got the stuffed lobster, both were great and the potato Anna side was our favorite.
