I was visiting my siblings and their kids in Columbus recently and we needed dinner, but since we…read morehave a bunch of kids in our group, we were looking for something that would occupy them as well. We ended up at the little grand market. Parking was fairly easy as it's pretty abundant in the little gravel lot across the street and along the perimeter. It was absolutely packed both inside and outside, but we found a spot on the lawn. The kids ran around the whole time and had so much fun. You are able to order food from multiple food stands at once, which is pretty cool, so we ordered from my sister's phone. We got chicken sandwiches, burgers, birria tacos, two different types of french fries (I think the fresh cut fries from the chicken tender place were best!), dipping sauces and cocktails. The only con to our entire experience was that it was so busy. One of the food stalls had to close ordering because they got so backed up. Unfortunately, this meant we waited like 30 minutes for our meal, which would've been fine in other circumstances, but this place is supposed to be pretty fast casual. However, that certainly won't determine me from going back as the food was really good and the place was clean and fun. It's popularity also shows me that it's a spot worth visiting again.

This is such a cool concept we stumbled up.... I wish Cleveland had more "food halls"!!! The little…read moregrand market is basically an indoor food court/shop but.....super cute if that makes sense??? The perfect place to meet up and hang with friends if you want to grab dinner and drinks...but dont want the same dinner!!! OR if you want to go in the morning and study ALL day (there's breakfast, lunch, & dinner options!) So many options... and none of them are similar, which is smart in my opinion!!! There are specialty drinks at most of the places, but there is a huge full bar in the middle with any cocktail/mixer you could imagine!! The place is huge and even has an upstairs. There is so much seating / lounging areas, you are sure to find the perfect place to eat and relax, hurry because it filled up FAST! You can either order and wait at the restaurant OR order at ur table and pick it up when it's ready! There are QR menus on all tables!! My friends and I all ordered from different places and enjoyed every bite of our foods - it was kinda fun to taste a bite of a bunch of different places all in 1 spot! I seriously love this concept and I hope the CBUS community is enjoying it!! PLUS - they have free period products for women... automatically a cool place for that!!

My friends and her family recently came for her parents weekend and we had a great time on the rooftop bar. I can't wait to go back during the summer when it's open. More than that, everytime I go the service is so friendly and you can tell they're really excited to help serve and talk to you. I love that they have brunch too and a bunch of events weekly like trivia and bingo. I recommend Budd Dairy to anyone who's visiting Columbus or even locals if they want to try something new.

It's such a unique gatherall for food and drinks with an ambiance that truly makes it stand out. It's not huge like some others but it's brimming with character. There are four food spots and a bar with great drink options surrounded by lots of comfortable seating. The food spots include Nood Bar (noodles), Kung Fu BBQ (Asian BBQ), The Burger Bistro, and Fete (bowls and salads). Here's the fiod we tried: The burger bistro -turkey burger -Brussels sprouts -chicken parm eggrolls Nood Bar -Japanese fried chicken Bao (3) -Korean corn dog Kung fu bbq -3 smoked brisket birria tacos with a side of Mac and cheese If was tough to decide an absolute favorite of everything, but I thought the bao was the best, followed by the eggrolls, and the birria tacos. All of it was very tasty though and I can't say any dish was remotely disappointing. The service from each spot, including the bar, was great too. I'd absolutely recommend checking it out.

The noodles had chili oil and cheddar-infused pork broth, Japanese fried chicken, bok choy, fresh corn, scallions, pickled bamboo, grated Parmesan, and black garlic oil. I really enjoyed the fried chicken and the cheese pull that the noodles had. The service was decent. I wouldn't say its anything to cry home about - at both the bar and the restaurant - but the staff was pleasant. I will say I was a bit concerned regarding the food safety at the Noods Bar. I noticed that none of the people preparing food were wearing gloves or a hair net. In fact, the young lady who took my order at the register was processing basil without gloves. What I found most alarming was when the time came for me to order, she simply put the basil to the side for a moment - took my order by touching the ipad and took my card for payment - and went right back to the basil without washing her hands.

This place is a food lover's playground. The vibe is energetic but relaxed, with a collection of food booths serving everything from comfort eats to globally inspired dishes. It's the kind of spot where everyone in your group can order from a different vendor and still sit together -- which I love. First up for me was Saba's, and wow... I ordered the Mediterranean brisket cigars. These were smoked brisket, shredded super fine and infused with BBQ and Tennessee whiskey, wrapped in a wonton wrapper, then deep fried to crispy perfection. They were served with a cilantro cream dipping sauce that took them over the top. The outside had that perfect crunch, and the inside was smoky, savory, and just a little sweet from the whiskey infusion. Absolutely incredible. One of those bites where you pause and go, "Okay... this is special." Then I headed over to Buck City Sammies and ordered the Bodega sandwich -- and let me tell you, this sandwich does not play around. Wagyu beef grilled and shredded, layered with aged sharp cheddar and American cheese, topped with garlic confit sauce, lettuce, tomato, and red onions on a baguette. The beef was rich and flavorful, the cheese melt was on point, and that garlic confit sauce tied everything together beautifully. Every bite was balanced, hearty, and ridiculously delicious. East Market isn't just a place to eat -- it's a place to explore. Multiple booths, huge flavors, and something new to try every time. If you're in Columbus and love great food, this is a must-visit. I'll definitely be back for round two.

For a Saturday visit:…read more Parking is pretty rough. It's a tight parking lot and it was packed full. A local said it's normal to park at the high school nearby but I'm not sure if that is a legitimate business agreement or not. Space inside is also tight. Not many places to actually sit and eat after you order food. Instead of making the upper level a smaller balcony style seating area, they should have just made it a full second floor. Restaurant order windows are directly in front of tables, so expect to be crowded around if a line forms. There are at least 3 bars as well as a self pour beer tap. The bourbon bar only serves pours of bourbon or wine. The bartender was condescending when I approached to look at the bourbon list so I didn't order there nor will I ever. The main bar has a cocktail list and large selection of drinks. I got a lavender cocktail from their spring menu and it was not good. Too much syrup. Definitely not craft cocktails, more like dive bar drinks. We tried dry rub wings from Bristol's and a taco, burrito bowl, mango salsa, and churros from Roberto & Miguel's. The wings were decent but I'd get them extra crispy if I were to try them again. The food from Roberto's came in very small portions. The bowl was ok, the taco was ok. The mango salsa was very good! Chips were decent as well. The guacamole in the bowl seemed fresh and tasted good. The churros tasted like funnel cakes and needed more cinnamon. We LOVE churros but these were not good enough to finish. We've had better at Aces Pickleball surprisingly. We left hungry. Overall the food wasn't super impressive, the bars lacked quality or good customer service and it was very loud and crowded. Again, it was a Saturday so it could be a little more chill on other days, not sure. Lots of children running around, and party music playing. They need more seating space and better parking. We will try again later down the line to taste other restaurants. So far I'd recommend Factory 52 over this place by far.

This is the the food court at the Polaris Mall which is one of the biggest and most famous Malls in all of Ohio. There's actually not a lot of really good food in this Hall even though there are lots of different options. It's pretty typical, and the bubble tea here is awful. There are a couple of gems that you can find, like the Doner Kebab stand, but generally speaking it's not a very Happy Food Hall. Not for me, anyway. But lots of good people watching, and nice bathrooms. My other review said: I don't mean to Polaris opinion, but this food court is severely lacking. This is a large typical food court with a few chains and a couple of locally owned but predictable businesses, as well as a couple of local chains here as well. It's part of a massive gargantuan Mall, and you'd expect better food accordingly. Still, a lot of locals come eat here while hunting for their shopping needs.
