Thank you Ana

The food was delicious, there are already 3 events that I have had there and I will continue using this place

I recommend this good place to celebrate any event. I had dinner for my birthday. Mrs. Ana was very professional, helping me to have the guests well attended. Thank you.

Went here to try out a new place to eat for a birthday. The other reviews and pictures online looked great!Unfortunately, when we got there, the whole place smelled like cigarettes. This itself was not a deal breaker but something I was not expecting from the pictures.Instead of being seated with the other restaurant guests in the area pictured in the photos, we were seated in a dark hallway by ourselves.Our waiter came every once in a while.The food was disgusting. We were served stale bread to begin our meal. The lamb chops were very salty. The pallea had no flavor and the seafood inside tasted old and had an extremely chewy and rough texture.Would not recommend.

I love this place! They have delicious food! The manager was always there helping servers and making sure if we needed anything else. We celebrated my husband’s birthday with a special dinner between friends and even though they were busy, the manager tried her best to make room for us. Thanks for your help and make this day a good memory to keep in our minds.We truly recommend it!

I would recommend this restaurant to anyone. The food is delicious and home cooked . we had our anniversary event here and everything went amazing , everyone was happy and could not stop telling us how great the food was and the Service. Ana it’s a great event planner. She did everything we asked and more

My parents celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary and it was more amazing than I thought! The food was delicious! They also provided servers for our venue , best place to go and enjoy great quality food and a great time!

I have driven past Columbus Grill many times over the past several years and had no idea of the pallet pleasing options their menu offered.Visited here on a Tuesday evening. I was seated in a party of 2. One other table had 6-8 seated, the rest of the restaurant was empty aside from a few people at the bar.Giving 4/5 due to service which was slow and inattentive. Drinking glasses remained empty over 10 minutes on two occasions and the wait staff was no where to be found. Waited another 15 minutes after my last bite before finally having to seek out our server on my own.On to the good stuff, the food:Started off with a round of oysters, which are grown and harvested locally. Temperature of my first oyster was far above what it should have been and didn't provide an appetizing first bite. After covering the oysters with some of the provided ice, they chilled down to a more reasonable temperature for raw seafood which made for a very palatable experience. Oysters were semi-sweet, light beige, with a mild finish.Note to chef: consider adding shallot and garlic infused red wine vinegar to compliment these sweet gems.Next up was the bruschetta which provided a finely tuned and perfectly balanced flavor of balsamic glaze, fresh tomato, and basil which got better with each bite. I wanted to get more, but knew I had to hold off and leave room for the main course, which was the Paella.I grew up eating my mother's Paella which had influences from Spain and Guatamala. She passed several years ago and I really missed her paella, which she never left the recipe for.Until my visit at Columbus Grill, I have longed for a paella with a similar flavor profile, yet all others fell short with something missing. However, this paella hit the mark and left me recalling memories from my childhood.Each ingredient in this paella complimented one another. Every bite was a pallet fiesta with the perfect blend of spices, veggies, and meat (lobster, shrimp, and chicken). The sauce was creamy and velvety. My only regret is not ordering a Blanc or Riesling which would have of paired well.Writing this review has me craving more and I need to go back, right now.

The food was great, the (one) server was trying to keep up, but the guy needs some help. One server for an entire restaurant is cruel and unusual punishment.
