    Fantastic evening at Stories on High. I had family visiting from New York and they were so impressed with our roof top dining experience! Our server Miguel was amazing. It was a beautiful introduction and “Welcome to Columbus”

    Incredible, unique cocktails and small plates. The outdoor space is a nice bonus. We didn't plan it, but our dining finished right about sunset. The perfect night out. We would definitely dine here again.

    Nice place to meet up with friends. Noise level gets pretty loud as the night goes on. Nice views of the city, especially if you get a window seat. My drink and food choices were only so-so but others really like theirs. Would definitely go back to experience more.
