Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Upper Arlington

We took relatives visiting from out of state to Houlihan’s for lunch, and they all loved it — from our 6-year-old grandson to our 11-year-old niece to her parents. We heard rave reviews from all of them about all the food they ate! And Houlihan’s remains one of our favorite restaurants for great food and good, personable service.

The vibe of Little West Tavern is amazing. The food was great, our service was amazing. We will be back for sure.

Hostess was helpful and friendly. Bartending was on point. Ambience was warm, cozy, and welcoming. Music selection was noticeable and added to a great vibe. Our server was knowledgeable, personable, and technically proficient. Chef La Rocca was gracious, and was attentive to his guests. He and his kitchen staff take obvious pride in their craft. The end results…from appetizers thru dessert…were delicious! A little “Pura Vida” right in downtown Columbus!!

Had a great evening with exceptional service by Alex and very good food. We had the curry mussels, tater tots, baked oysters and Harbor salad. All were quite unique and very tasty. We especially enjoyed the Harbor salad which we split among the table. We also had the punch bowl which was a nice drink option but required some extra effort to finish despite splitting between 4 of us. Probably better for a party of 6. Overall it was a great evening at The Pearl.

Very nice happy hour excellent food and great service at a reasonable price made for a nice evening
