Best Seasonal Restaurants in Clintonville

First time at Lupo and won’t be our last! Everything from the service, cocktails, food and dessert was beyond amazing. Can’t wait to come back and experience this quaint place again!!!

Everything from the service to the food was fantastic. Nick and Nick took great care of us and answered any questions we had. I would recommend Jeff Ruby's to to a one who want to have a tip notch dining experience go here

This is where my boyfriend and I chose to eat as our first meal in Columbus, Ohio! It did not disappoint. We had an 8:45 reservation, but went early and sat at the bar to have a drink and a couple of appetizers. We ordered the steak tartare and the oyster mushrooms. The steak tartare was fresh, cold, and had your classic tartare flavor. Texture was great as the meat wasn’t over minced. The mushrooms were “calamari” style and came with a couple of dipping sauces. The truffle aioli and the tomato fondue. I do wish we had more bigger bites of the oyster mushroom. We were fishing for them on the plate. Once at a table (we asked to be moved in order to accommodate the addition of friends also flying in — which the staff kindly and graciously accommodated us) we ordered the lampchops with the vegetable fried rice. I do believe this was by far the best bite of our evening. Definitely a must try. For our entree, we ordered the agnolotti and the sea bass. The agnolotti was flavorful with a generous amount of lobster! The seabass was cooked well and the light broth it came with was delicious. We ordered broccolini as a side dish which also didn’t disappoint We’re excited to come back to try more menu items!

Thoughtful menu, excellent ingredients, and beautiful plated. After Leah explained the dishes we couldn’t help but order the chefs tasting menu and every dish was perfection. Great wine selection too and our waitress Leah even knew fun details of the winery and winemaker. The passion for food and craft is evident in every detail. Will be bragging about this meal and returning soon! One of the best picks in Columbus and a must if you appreciate Italian cuisine.

Our server Carli was great and made my birthday so fun!
