Stopped in for a casual dinner a few weeks back. Place was pretty crowded for a weeknight but then again it was also 6:30 PM. The line was moving pretty quickly too for the amount of people that were there. I had not ordered at brassica in a long time, so I appreciate the staff giving me some reminders on which absence were which. I did get the bowl with the brisket. I also got several vegetables. The brisket was very tender and well cooked. My foot itself was pretty good, but it was relatively expensive I thought. I know it's probably in line with a place like chipotle, but I just didn't think it was anything amazing. That being said, would come back. read more

Brassica - Brisket and Hummus Meal Brassica Fries - Mediterranean Near Me - Upper Arlington, Ohio

This Brassica location never misses a step on service or food quality. The staff here is genuinely so friendly and works efficiently even when it is slammed. The food is reliably fresh and delicious. My favorites are the seasoned french fries and the minty pink lemonade. That said, they have followed the trend of increased prices and greatly reduced portions. Recently, the bowl I had was 90% rice and greens, with tablespoon portions of meat and toppings. You are not getting any value, but it will taste good! read more

Brassica - Mediterranean Near Me - Upper Arlington, Ohio

One place we miss when we moved from the area is Brassica. We always come when we are in town. For a vegetarian and vegan, this is a great meal. The falafel is very tasty (also not fried with any meat items, if you are picky like us). The pita is made fresh (oven is right there to see). The toppings are a great selection. Fries are a must. It is busy when we come, but the staff is quick and always getting fresh food out. The place is bright and bigger than the short north area (and free parking). read more

We had a tasty lunch at this popular place in Upper Arlington. A nice crowd at lunchtime but staff kept the line moving along. Despite the crowd, we immediately found seating. The room was nicely laid out and kept in clean condition. I had a baba sandwich with veggies. Fresh tasting a quite delicious. I especially enjoyed the extra seasoned eggplant I opted to add. The pita was still warm. Friendly staff and good food make Thai one a good lunch option. read more

Brassica - Mediterranean Near Me - Upper Arlington, Ohio

We went on June 20th between 8:00 PM and 8:30PM. We had a rude terrible experience with the two girls who were serving the food. They did not listen to what we wanted. It was our first time and we needed some explanation they did not care and started adding hummus to the plate just because they heard us mention the word hummus. The asian girl rudely told my mother in-law to stop pointing at the food. I am upset because the food was actually good but we will not be going back due to the sour attitude we received. read more

[Lane Avenue] 6PM The good - Everything we had was very tasty. Food included a sandwich with hummus and chicken, a salad with hummus and falafel, fries, and hummus plate with falafel. Basically all of these things are variations of each other. All are very tasty. Especially like the pickled veggies and THE SAUCES- try them all. Special sauce especially. I had one of the beers on tap - I think it was Wheat beer. It was fine. Overall a good vibe. The room is clean, inviting, and the staff is friendly - and patience. The 'wish it was a little bit better' - Parking wasn't great. Actually came the day before and it was too packed, so we went elsewhere. Came back and got a spot. The line gets long/slow as each order needs some time to assemble. Not sure how to make it faster but the wait felt slow. This might be a hot take, but I thought the bread for the sandwich was just 'ok'. It was warm, fresh, etc, but it was a bit doughy for my liking. Maybe if they left it in the over for 30 more seconds(?) Portion on the fries was small...ie not really sharing-size. But they were really good...try with all the dips. A bit expensive too. If you're a fan of Cava, you'll really like this place. If I lived here, I'd come back often. You might feel out of place if you don't wear yoga pants/leggings. read more

Brassica truly never misses. It's one of my favorite fast-casual Mediterranean spots. It is consistently fresh, flavorful, and reliable. The space itself is beautiful: clean and thoughtfully designed, with greenery, warm lighting, and modern tables that give it a cozy, welcoming ambiance. The service is always quick and efficient, and the quality of the food is amazing. I've tried the chicken, brisket, and falafel, and each protein is equally delicious in its own way. You can tell this place is run with care. They've perfected their system, and I've never had anything less than a great experience here. read more

Brassica - Falafel Pita Sandwich - Mediterranean Near Me - Upper Arlington, Ohio

The. Best. I ordered a salad with pita (that was perfectly warm and toasty) and also got lemonade and that HEAVENLY cookie! Everything was absolutely delicious! I couldn't recommend this place more and will make it a point to return every time I'm in Columbus! read more

So they are a fast casual Mediterranean place and their food is quite tasty. I really love their hummus platter with falafel, cucumber, eggplant, beets and cabbage. All of their veggies always taste fresh! I also love their brisket and usually will order it in a sandwich with greens, beets, fried onions and their special sauce. Their food is a little pricey and this is not something I can afford often, but if I am tight on time or want to eat a meal out this is one of my go to restaurants. They are like chipotle in that they make your sandwich, platter salad in front of you with the exception of certain items like French fries or a side of falafel. Their service is usually quick! read more

Brassica is amazing. We got beef and lentils to bring back to our hotel on a busy night. The service was fast to move through.

Brassica is an absolutely amazing chain restaurant here in Columbus. I adore my food every time we come. I always have to add the fries and a drink because they're just so good. It is kinda pricey compared to other BYO bowl places, so we don't go very often. I would definitely say it's worth a try, but there are other great options if you're trying to save some money. The seating isn't that great here, as a bigger woman, it's hard to squeeze into the seats in a comfortable way. The service is usually pretty good but the friendliest I've had. read more

Every time I eat here I always think "wow the food is great " the bread is the best and the attention to the quality of the other ingredients. It's always a good experience, not too expensive. read more

Brassica is and will forever be a Columbus favorite for me and has been for many years. If you have not tried Brassica, you need to go. Every time I go I am always so happy with the food. It has so much flavor and you can tell the fresh quality of their ingredients. The fries are really good too and so is their tahini chocolate chip cookie! I crave their food regularly. You can't go wrong whether you pick the sandwich or the bowl. Go to Brassica period lol read more

The service was amazing and there was a blond boy that served me and he did an amazing job. He was so kind and considerate. I loved the food and the cookie it was to die for. And it was so calming and the ambience was amazing and chill as flip. read more

I stopped by Brassica for the first time with a few coworkers. And I will be back! Best described to me as "Mediterranean Chipotle," you choose a base (I chose the pita sandwich) then hummus or a different sauce. Then some toppings, including your protein, before the choice of multiple sauces. I assembled a pretty tasty meal for myself and enjoyed their fries. They also have a house mint lemonade that was delicious. Parking at this location could be an issue, though seating seemed to available while we were there (roughly 11:45-12:45). read more

Brassica - Sandwich, Minty Pink Lemonade, Brassica Fries - Mediterranean Near Me - Upper Arlington, Ohio

This is the fast-casual Mediterranean restaurant of my dreams. If I could, I would open Brassica's all over California and Hawai'i. What is good? Everything! Brisket Hummus Bowl: The first time I got Brassica, I ordered this. . . with all the fixings- if it was on the line, I added it! Includes an organic pita that is light and airy. Falafel Salad: Comes with greens, and grains, and, of course, I added anything and everything. The pickled veg is so, so good. Must order a side of fries, a tahini chocolate chip cookie, and a minty pink lemonade that I mix soda water into to make it sparkly. The customer service goes above and beyond. If you're meeting up with friends you may want to check out the extensive and reasonably priced bottles of wine, beer on draft, or the Brassica margarita. read more

Brassica is a Lebanese-inspired, Chipotle-style fast casual joint that lets you build your own pita sandwiches, salads, or hummus and chips. I usually get the salad option, akin to a bowl, with a base of lentils and greens. Protein choices include falafel, vegetable mix, chicken shawarma, or harissa-rubbed brisket. I've always gotten the chicken shawarma and the flavoring is really good. Next comes the vegetables (roasted carrots, marinated eggplant or cauliflower), and you top it off with a variety of sauces. My go-to sauces are the 'special' sauce (think tzatziki without dill) and roasted red pepper. In addition, you can add either hummus or baba ganoush, as well as crispy onions or crushed up pita chips to give it a crunch. The ingredients are fresh, delicious, and blend together wonderfully. One downside for first timers is that the menu board is posted on the left hand side near the front entrance, which makes it difficult to view once you get to the serving line. I'm not sure if they have handheld laminated menus, but imagine that could be helpful. In addition, the food is rather pricey for similar style restaurants -- my most recent bowl was $16 without a drink or any extras (i.e. the fries, which are pretty popular). However, the quality is excellent so as long as you're okay with paying a bit extra for high quality ingredients with superb flavor, Brassica is definitely worth trying! read more

Brassica - Salad bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Upper Arlington, Ohio

I love eating from this place. The food is delicious and very well made. They consistently have excellent customer service! I highly recommend Brassica and this location. read more

Mediterranean chipotle, as it is popularly described. Brassica somehow manages to balance classy decor with a casual atmosphere. Like she's so fancy but for what lowkey. Meals are picked up at the counter as your food is built assembly line style, but the staff are very efficient and friendly, often offering to deliver food to your table if a specific component is still cooking. Some people go wild for Brassica's food; I think it's just ok. Fairly reasonably priced sandwiches with flavorful fillings like cauliflower and eggplants! However, the food runs on the salty side for me - I kept craving a drink (which maybe is part of their scheme idk). I mostly like Brassica for their fries - the seasoning on them is spacial and the special dipping sauce is so garlicky *chef's kiss with a wonderful breath* I do feel like the fries could be a lot crispier though :/ I earned a comfort tahini chocolate chip cookie this time too and I quite liked it! Love chewy cookies and will never say no to a little flakey salt on a dessert huehue. read more

Brassica - Brassica Fries Falafel Pita Sandwich Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookie - Mediterranean Near Me - Upper Arlington, Ohio

I took a quick trip up to Columbus for the day and decided to stop at Brassica for some dinner before driving back to Cincinnati. They were so busy the line was literally out the door. It was freezing outside, but it was worth the wait. The salad bowl was so fresh and the brisket was lean and flavorful. My boyfriend and I had to each get our own Brassica fries on the side. They were seasoned perfectly, and the sauce was sweet and complimented the seasoning perfectly. We also tried the minty pink lemonade. I never knew mint went so well with lemonade, but it was amazing. I definitely recommend stopping here for your next meal! read more

Brassica - Salad with Brisket | Brassica Fries | Minty Pink Lemonade - Mediterranean Near Me - Upper Arlington, Ohio

This place has been only radar for sometime, Today was the day. This place was amazing, from the fresh ingredients to the fresh pita oh my. I opted for the slow roasted chicken shawarma with too many topping to list. Also we tried the brisket which is a harissa rubbed beef brisket, which is only sold until sold out. So get here early, Both were so tender and favorable, it would be extremely hard to just pick one. The fries were ok, however the Tahini chocolate chip cookie... ahh I could have eaten a dozen of these definitely a must try! So if you been waiting to try don't wait any longer. Was greeted both when we walked in and as we left, fantastic service. The only thing keeping this from A five star is price, but don't let that stop you from trying out. read more

First time in Ohio and it's way more boujie than I thought. This place may have been the best food I've ever had. I told Jillian it was my first time and she HOOKED ME UP. Filled my bowl up and even through in some fries for the experience. 10/10 would come back to Ohio just for Brassica. Thank you Jillian for your above and beyond service and kindness! read more

Brassica is one of my favorite spots in Columbus! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and made with high-quality ingredients. I love how customizable the menu is--you can build a bowl or pita exactly the way you like it, with so many great options for proteins, toppings, and sauces. Everything tastes vibrant and healthy but still super satisfying. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, and the staff are always friendly and helpful if you're unsure what to try. Portions are generous, prices are fair for the quality, and I always leave full and satisfied. read more

Brassica is a typical set up for a fast casual restaurant. You walk in to a modern environment and a counter where you can see all the food and pick what you would like and your toppings. The staff were friendly and very efficient. Their pita is very thick and light and fluffy. It makes for a wonderful sandwich. They braise brisket daily and it is incredibly tender and full of flavor. The other toppings available are unique compared to other Mediterranean restaurant offerings but they mesh well together and each individual item was clearly well thought about and crafted with flavor. As a side I opted for brassica fries which have a wonderful seasoning and come with a house made sauce for dipping which is truly a fantastic pairing. All in all, brassica provides fast service with food that packs a flavorful punch. I will definitely be back when I am in town! read more

Brassica - Salad bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Upper Arlington, Ohio

I've never been much into Mediterranean food but this place hit the spot. If you're looking for a quick meal packed with flavor and protein then this place is a must try. I went to the Upper Arlington location and made my own bowl. The portions are huge so you definitely get your money's worth. I loved all the proteins and toppings there were to pick from. This place is essentially like a Mediterranean Chipotle in terms of set up. The staff were all very friendly and super helpful in explaining what some of the selections were along with recommendations for the dressings which I loved since I was unfamiliar. Absolutely recommend! read more

Brassica - Make your own bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Upper Arlington, Ohio

I forgot how good this place is. It's the usual MYO bowl/salad/wrap option that seems to be the only thing we're allowed to eat anymore, but I like their spin. I love that there is a rice and lentil option for the base, and they have crispy onions, which is a no-brainer for me! What I really like is that all of the toppings go with all of the other toppings, which isn't universal. Anyway, I love the creative toppings. It's a toss up between chicken and falafel, but on my most recent visit, they had to make more falafel and I was a little time crunched, so I got the chicken, which pretty much fell apart it was so tender. Yum! Love the fresh veggie toppings, garlic yogurt sauce, etc. They have really great fries and I love the minty pink lemonade, with a refill on the way out, please. It's a little pricey for what you get, but the quality is good. So maybe not an every day lunch stop, but very good. read more

Brassica - A bowl and minty pink lemonade - Mediterranean Near Me - Upper Arlington, Ohio

Brassica is fresh, flavorful, and amazing! Their fries are excellent as well. Great place to take a family.

Good food, clean flavors and a solid place to have a Mediterranean-esque make your own bowl/sando. Falafel and chicken both had good flavors, the roasted carrot is the lights out flavor. Who besides Bugs Bunny would've thought that? Small selection of adult bevs and beers, soda for the littles. Over all good outing. Not a huge fan of the aloof vibe off the staff- but some people dig that I guess. read more

Just left and the line is literally out the door! We all had the same dinner idea But from start to finish everyone was kind!! I really appreciate that! And of course my salad is delicious! Thank you! read more

Brassica is one of my favorite restaurants in Columbus! Having said this, they have some opportunities. 1) 90% of the time I visit I have to wait for falafel. I get that they want it to be fresh but at 12p - 1p you'd think that they'd make enough for the expected lunch rush. There were two others waiting for falafel besides me (wait time ~ 5 mins). This has been the case at both Lane Ave & Easton sites. 2) Why does the salad cost $3 more than the sandwich? I can tell you from +10 visits that it's not because you get a larger portion size with the salad. Seems like they are taking advantage of those customers that order salads (which I've noticed is the majority of people). Oh - kale and cabbage is more expensive - probably, but I get the same portion size with my sandwich. 3) During my visit today I got a sandwich. After waiting +5 mins for the falafel to be ready, they began making my sandwich. When it was clear that the sandwich would be overflowing (see picture) I asked if I could get the last three items on the side. I was told, "we'll do it this time, but we normally can't". What? So - you don't mind inconveniencing the customer to get their food and then it seems like the right decision to explain company policy when the customer asks for a side cup? BTW - no, "I'm sorry you had to wait so long to get your food". Only, "we'll do it this time...". I sometimes think folks have lost their minds. 4) The portion size is inconsistent. It seems they worry more about the artistic creation of the food than giving the same portion visit to visit. Chipotle has this same problem - improved training would address this Will I continue to come to Brassica? YES - the food is great! They just need to figure out a few details to make it a better experience for the customer. read more

Brassica - Falafel sandwich - overflowing and needing to get remaining items on the side. - Mediterranean Near Me - Upper Arlington, Ohio

I have been here twice and will not be returning. The food is mediocre at best, but I am aware that this could be my taste buds and not the food quality. However, this price is ASTRONOMICAL compared to the amount you get. A bowl at chipotle is twice the size for half the price. A bowl at any other location is a still bigger than here which is just confusing. read more

I went to dinner with my partner. Brassica is one of my favorite places in Columbus since I moved! I've been here a few times and it is consistent quality food. I wouldn't recommend carry out as you don't get the portions you'd like (I like extra sauce or more veggies bc I am vegetarian) and it can be messy unless it's a bowl. I wish they bottled their sauce or sold their eggplant, it's to die for!!! Pricier for those who will add meat but as a vegetarian I couldn't be happier! Their pink drink is my absolute favorite too. read more

I always order a falafel sandwich with fries and it leaves me stuffed. They also have a fun variety of beverages that I enjoy trying. The times I've dined in the staff has been quick and helpful. Great for when you don't have a ton of time, but still want to eat well. Will definitely be back soon! read more
