That's why I was excited to discover Portia's Cafe, a spot dedicated to fresh, nutritious ingredients. Their menu is vegan, gluten-free, GMO-free, and organic, using local produce whenever possible. After a marathon day at the office, I ordered delivery straight to my hotel room. While Portia's leans toward lunch with its quesadillas, salads, and wraps, good food is good food any time of day. I went with the Notuna Salad and Red Lentil Soup--a classic combo that absolutely hit the spot. The notuna (made from mashed, seasoned chickpeas, I believe) was flavorful, especially with the creamy cashew dressing over fresh greens and shredded carrots. The red lentil soup added a comforting heft to the light salad. I couldn't resist finishing with an apple almond cookie for a sweet ending. Portia's got me through my work night. I'll definitely be back on future trips to Columbus.

So it only seemed natural that I'd fall in love with Food Street, but I was worried that my expectations would exceed the reality. So instead of going in... I decided to order delivery through good ole Door Dash - expecting a sad, slightly cold, non crispy shadow what you'd get in person but let me tell yas.... this was not the case at all! Spicy Crispy Chicken Sandwich was phenomenal! It was wicked crispy, the size of my head (quick makes this a HUGE value... not that my head is that big, but order it to get an idea), bun was not soggy at all, and it did not disappoint. Chicken was perfectly cooked, juicy, not chewy at all, and seasoned well. Coleslaw added a nice vinegar contrast (I wish there was much more coleslaw but it didn't stop me!), sauce was smokey and slightly spicy, and the bun was soft. Chicken Tikka Paratha Roll was also a hit! Great seasoning, chicken was incredibly well cooked - melt in your mouth style - with small bits of char - vegetables were fresh, and the roll itself had great chew and flavor w/out being greasy (at all) or saturated. Fries were bangers too. Ready to eat my way through the menu. If it's this good when ordered, can't image what'd it be in house.

The food was decent, especially the malai boti wrap and the garlic chicken wrap. The chicken…read moresandwich was greasy and underwhelming, and the gappa chaat, while big, lacked much flavor. The falooda was the worst - it was just ice cream, milk, and a sparse amount of basil seed. The price point, including the sneaky service charge, does not justify a return trip.

I got…read moreone of their sub sandwiches and even though it took a while , the food was absolutely worth the wait. I love the theme of this place! It sounds like a satanic place but really it's more of a dark horror film themed place. Nothing really satanic is here just a great name. The only thing is scary is the scary grandma at the bottom of the basement! That is also where you will find the restroom too! The restaurant is very clean. There's plenty of seating especially since that there is a whole section next door and it has a lot of great movie posters to check out. The store always has some great happenings going around. I haven't eaten in over 12 hours because the food that I ate is still keeping me full! Overall, I highly recommend stopping here. Hail Seitan!

Solid choice for fresh and sustainably and locally sourced food. I have been to both the Easton and…read moreShort North locations. Both are very nicely appointed with plenty of space to enjoy a good meal and conversation with friends or other dining companions. The food is cooked well with nice presentation. Flavor is good but subtle and can be enhanced to your personal taste with condiments per your preference. The menu has plenty of options for everyone which makes it ideal for groups. It's not full service since it is a cafe. And therefore you order at the register and seat yourselves, and they bring your food out to you. So it is also very efficient. Servers do come by your table. So if you need anything, they are there to help.

My brother-in-law ordered the French toast and said the flavor was good (maybe a little too sweet), but it was very dense and heavy for him.

Drove through several lots with others prowling as well. Ended up finding street parking right in front of of the joint. Line was not out the door, which was delightful since it was only 4 degrees out, but my butt was just inside right up against the door. By the time I got to place my order, a spot opened at the counter to enjoy the meal. This place is as much of a coffee house as it is a restaurant. I saw 4 taps and was hoping for an IPA, but they were for coffee and teas. Got a Diet Coke instead. Had the Smashburger and the fried rice to take out. The burger was one of the most awesome burgers I have ever had. I don't know what they put in it, but it was just downright delicious. The fried rice was for my daughter's lunch tomorrow, but I took a few bites of it just for quality control sake, and it was very good as well. Unlike any fried rice you have ever had.
