    menus on the wall
    Laura M.

    Tried Fresh Take on the recommendation of the Visitor Center. Perfect choice as we were looking for salads. Park on Washington St. but look for the sign that takes you down the alley as they have a side entrance. This is a clean modern space and you order off screens and not with a person but staff is very helpful if you have questions. Plenty of healthy options including salads, bowls and wraps. I had the ancient grains bowl and it was excellent. Good sized bowl so plenty for 2 meals.

    entrance off the alley between 4th and 5th street on Washington

    My wife and I decided to try this new restaurant in Columbus because we noticed it offered some "healthy" options. The restaurant is really unique in the world of soups, rice based dishes, and salads, but similar to those frozen yogurt places where you build from a basic starting point and then can add on as you like. The shop is located in the alley between 4th and 5th streets on Washington in Columbus. It's not a typical alley since this usually has some decoration and public art, so there is no creepy vibe. They have two steps into the side of the building (no railings or ramps available) which is wide and narrow. The area you step into is the dining area with mostly 4 top tables, though there are some 2 tops nestled along the half wall where the food prep takes place. To the left is where your called in meals can be picked up and a stand where you can get additional utensils, napkins, etc. On the left side of the half wall is an order counter, but don't expect human interaction unless you ask for help. We weren't greeted or offered any assistance though we stood there reading the menu boards over the counter for probably five minutes trying to decide. When we were ready to order, my wife used the touchscreen monitor to order a loaded baked potato and then the screens advanced to let her customize the items she wanted to include, including her beverage. Before she closed out, I touched the "add Item" and was able to order a "build your own" salad. I was able to choose which type of green I wanted (you can do this for rice based bowls as well). You can pick two bases. I then advanced through the screens, adding items like veggies, avocado, Granny Smith apple slices, and dried cranberries. I used the protein option to pick some grilled chicken (you can choose three different levels of protein quantity too). I also selected my salad dressing and opted for a small bowl of soup too. The thing is, you have to pay attention as you click. First, not everything is free in the cost of the salad. The protein added $2 for my small chicken. And the bowl you get only holds so much, so if you load it up, you are going to have a mess trying to mix the items since they are separated when they arrive at your table. They do include a plastic knife and fork (and spoon for my soup), but the bowl if very light weight and can easily tip over if you press down too hard on one of the sides while cutting your lettuce pieces into bite sized portions. I will say that the freshness and the flavor were really good. I would gladly recommend this to anyone who doesn't mind paying a bit more for a customized meal. Note that they also have some options that are pre-set combinations if you get overwhelmed by so many choices. They do have some alcoholic beverages and water is strictly sold by the bottle. If they can improve their social contact and maybe cut their pieces a little more bite sized, they could improve the customer experience. As it is, the experience was pleasant, but not anything to rave about. Review #1996

    Curried Cauliflower Soup
    Laurel H.

    What a fun little lunch spot right in downtown Columbus. My colleagues and I were thrilled to find a restaurant with healthy options when we were in town for business purposes. I had the curried cauliflower soup. I wasn't sure what to expect as it didn't include much in the description, but it was very hearty and full of potatoes, cauliflower, and chickpeas. It came with a slice of soft homemade bread. I also ordered the small greek crunch salad, and I added falafel to it. Very satisfying and filling! My colleagues enjoyed their salads as well. The restaurant itself is very well-thought out. We loved being able to order from a tablet. They even offer facial recognition for frequent customers. Will definitely return here if we are in Columbus again!

    Delicious wild mushroom soup and cantaloupe agua fresca!
    Amanda M.

    What a great concept for downtown Columbus. Quick ordering and service and everything is prepared fresh to order. Very clean and crisp interior and plenty of space to sit and eat. This visit I ordered the wild mushroom soup and it has a ton of flavors and one of the best soups I've had! The cantaloupe agua fresca is refreshing and just the right amount of sweetness. Fresh Take is doing things right!

    First visit. Like salad. Gave 4 starts because there is no butter for the slice of bread.

Our server was wonderful. We were there at an off time and she was literally hostess, waitress and bartender. I had a strawberry lemonade that was delicious. My husband had the bourbon and cherry and is still talking about it. They had a lunch special - 10 inch pizza for &12 which is what I ordered. I got the hot honey sriracha jalapeño chicken pizza and asked them to go light on the sriracha . It was delicious and filling. I took half home for lunch the next day. My husband was very happy with his veggie pizza. Definitely a place to check out. They have their own beers and also have a wine tasting area.

And just the normal, run of the mill beer. None of that fruity, hazy stuff. The ones I got were good. Damn good. I wish I had a designated driver so I could have tasted their Whisky Flight. I did buy some of their Ready to Drink cocktails for the hotel. I always judge a place by the likelihood I would return. If this weren't 13 hours away, the answer would be a resounding yes.

    I've lived in Edinburgh my whole life, and I can honestly say the Edinburgh Diner never misses--but…read moretheir 16oz thin-cut tenderloin is on a whole different level. It's not just a meal, it's *the* meal you crave when you want something truly satisfying and classic. The tenderloin is massive, perfectly breaded, and fried to golden perfection with just the right amount of crisp. Despite how big it is, it's incredibly tender and flavorful in every bite--not greasy, not dry, just done exactly right. You can tell they've perfected this over time. What really makes it special is how consistent it is. Whether you're stopping in on a busy day or a quiet afternoon, it always comes out just as good as the last time. Pair it with their sides and you've got a plate that feels like home. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, the staff treats you like family, and the food reminds you why small-town diners are unbeatable. If you're anywhere near Edinburgh and don't try the 16oz thin-cut tenderloin, you're seriously missing out. Easy 5 stars every single time.

The menu has plenty of options, but we had to go for their signature tenderloin. We were excited to dig in. They offered an extra bun plus lettuce and tomato for an additional charge. If you're planning to split the sandwich, I highly recommend getting that second bun -- we were able to make two full sandwiches out of it. Just note that fries aren't included; they're an extra charge as well. We ordered some, but they arrived lukewarm, which was disappointing. The sandwich itself was tasty, though definitely heavier on breading than meat. Overall, it was a good experience and worth trying once, but we probably wouldn't return unless we happened to be passing through Edinburgh again.
