Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Columbus

Thomas was our waiter. Absolutely wonderful! Funny and professional. Food was delicious. Great place to gather with friends and family. Would go again.

A buddy and I met for dinner after work Monday and settled into a table in Ambrosia’s bar, one of our favorite spots. We’ve become creatures of habit, but the bruschetta makes a persuasive argument against personal growth: toasted Tuscan bread, tomatoes, basil, olive oil and garlic. Why tamper with that? He followed with the Rustica pasta, a hearty combination of Italian sausage, peppers, onions and marinara. I had the grouper special with Sicilianna sauce and sautéed spinach over Parmesan risotto, an excellent reason to venture beyond my usual order. A lovely Italian Sauvignon Blanc rounded out the evening. Dave Butts’ service was stellar as always, and James, the assistant general manager, added to the warm welcome. Ambrosia Hospitality Group understands that a favorite restaurant earns its place through both the food and the people. This one keeps earning ours.

We love to stop there when we drive from Chicago on our way to Nashville. The food and drinks are outstanding and Emily our server (we’ve had her multiple times) is great.

Fantastic food. Great atmosphere. Excellent service and nice location.

Had not been to Northside Social in several years but it did not disappoint. Food, ambience and service were top notch. Our server Micheal was friendly and knowledgeable. Will definitely not be so long coming back.
