Salted Peanut Butter with chocolate flakes and Homemade Coffee for me and Salted Peanut Butter with Chocolate flakes and Dark Chocolate for my wife was a delightful treat after a meal.

Solid place to go for burgers and chili cheese fries! It was pretty quiet when I walked in for a…read morelate lunch. I didn't realize you could customize toppings for the burger and was a bit overwhelmed so I went with lettuce, tomato, and ketchup. It already came with bacon and American cheese. Two thin patties and a delicious buttery bun. It's not bad! And the burger wasn't all that greasy! The chili cheese fries were also excellent! The chili was pretty beefy. Sometimes with chili, you get chunky beef and beans, and mostly sauce. This one was pretty much all beef. Very protein forward! They also have dairy free milkshakes, which are hard to find in general. I got Oreo. So good! Probably the one thing I'd come back for since I'm not sure where else serves this on the menu. Staff was nice. They double checked if I wanted cheese since I ordered a dairy free milkshake. I told them milk is my issue, not usually cheese. I appreciated them checking! They even came out and handed me my food and drink! Parking is easy. A good amount at the back and side of the building. Would love to come back!

KEWPEE vs. RITZY's As far as burger joints, go the original…read moreAmerican burger joint was KEWPEE up in Lima, Ohio, that opened back during the oil fields of ancient days when photographs were taken in black and white. The owner with no vision or appetite to franchise lost his original idea to the Wendy's hamburger joint as Dave Thomas took the idea Nationwide. If you're not in LIMA, the next best thing and maybe just something even a little bit better or at least different for sure, is RITZY'S in Columbus, Ohio, right in the middle of everything on high Street! The good: upgraded love to the buns here came from some fancy bread company. This is not like your average bun out of a bag that KEWPEE uses from a factory down the street. These are almost like a brioche bun that just didn't get toasted. That would be some next level they could put on it when they don't have an entire baseball team dropped off and in line to all get a Fitzys combo with fries and a Coke well actually you gotta get Dr Pepper around here. They don't have a Coke distributor ship. the bad: I gotta tell you the only thing I can find wrong with this place is that you want to be lucky enough to be in front of the bus bringing all their kids here to buy them all one double stack Fitzy's combo with Fitzy sauce and special melted cheese and bacon, along with the signature skinny fries that don't come out soggy but crispy every single time. I can't say I've ever been disappointed and got lame fries like other places. the ugly: well, I guess the ugly for this place would have to be the fact that you couldn't eat here every day or you might drop dead of a heart attack. It's not for Dr. Quinn medicine woman or Dr. Oz in his leather chewing Koehl dietary repertoire this is for MEN! Men that like to eat burgers. The food channel came through here and somehow got tricked down to the THURMANATOR hamburger which is half bread, according to The Report from my foodie friend David Aaron Rosenberg. Whatever you do, don't think about crispy, smash burgers with edges crunching at your first bite, all the way to your last bite, on buns that take into account every continuous bite within the five minute rule of the perfect hamburger. #5MinuteRule #NiceBuns #Smashburger #KEWPEEvsRITZYS The ambience of this place is your old-fashioned burger joint with that 50s feel standup tables against the wall window and some tables in the middle if you come with a group. Got my food fast, but I was in front of the baseball team that just showed up! #ProTIPritzys : if the line inside is really long, I saw people ordering from the parking lot and coming right in the front door by the street to get their order quicker. I don't know if they had just happened to Order before the whole baseball team showed up or if there's a little secret to get in the queue faster than the long line that's waiting. Yes you can order online.

It's been soooo long since I've had froyo! As I was scouring the internet for national frozen…read moreyogurt day deals I came across orange leaf and it seemed promising. Walking in was pure nostalgia, taking me back to my middle school days in the 20teens when froyo was all the rave. Personally I think the vanilla based flavors are the best so I went with birthday cake and cheesecake. They have a wide variety of toppings to throw on top of your yogurt like cheesecake bites, brownies, sprinkles, m&ms, fruits, and so much more. The whole concept of fro-yo is self serve so you can choose as many or as little toppings and yogurt you would like. The only thing that was a little annoying was there were no sample cups to try the flavors. It was a little annoying having to go ask for it especially when they only give you one cup to try different flavors. I definitely preferred my experience at orange leaf compared to menchies. I can see myself coming back for my annual fro-yo fix lol! P.S. they have no weigh Wednesdays now during the winter!

One got a strawberry shake, another got the cotton candy and some other kid flavor ice cream and I got a flurry (like a blizzard- vanilla ice cream with Reese peanut butter cup pieces).

It has a variety of Asian desserts, drinks & boba teas. I had the Herbal Jelly & Taro which was pretty good but don't feel the need to repeat any time soon. I just wish they still had the Mango Pomelo Sago Bowl. They have turned it into a sort of smoothie with the sago in a cup, but I want the whole dessert version they used to do with the fresh fruit chunks, sago, ice cream, etc (look at older pictures on here if you don't know what I'm talking about). Atmosphere is great w/ cozy sitting & different kinds of tables. The place isn't huge, so it might not accommodate a big group if they're busy. Bathrooms are nice & spacious and well kept. Service is good. You can order either at the counter or at one of the two electronic kiosks. One big complaint for me is that neither their menu or the kiosk have any details on what is inside foot desserts & some drinks. Even in online ordering it's a guessing game. Overall, this place is a gem & has authentic offerings you might not find at other parts of Columbus.

What was different about this spot was: you can adjust the amount of sugar in your drink! I loved that you can make it less sweet if you wanted to. Most bubble teas are just too sweet for me.

Our Bubble teas were very good. and I will probably try the waffle desserts, next time.

It was so good that I found myself thinking about it all week. The shop has a charming old school vibe that makes the whole experience feel nostalgic and special. The customer service was fantastic and the staff happily let us sample different flavors before we made our final choice, which made it even more fun. Every flavor we tried was rich, creamy, and full of flavor. You can really taste the quality. I will definitely be going back again and again. Highly recommend if you are in the Columbus area and craving amazing ice cream.

Most recently, I came to pick up a cake for Father's Day and also stopped in to try a couple drinks and a matcha roll. The interior is clean with indoor and outdoor seating. The staff are very friendly. Come early if you want a bigger selection of bread and pastries! I came around 6 pm on a Saturday and most breads were sold out but there were still plenty of cakes left. I ordered the iced matcha latte and iced black sesame lattes (both with oat milk). After mixing, the matcha latte was a light shade of green and pretty much just tasted like milk which was kind of disappointing. The black sesame latte on the other hand, had a nice strong black sesame flavor. The mango and strawberry smoothies were super refreshing especially since it was hot outside. I actually saved the matcha roll for 2 days later and it still tasted really fresh and yummy.

I RARELY give five star reviews. This place has…read moreconsistently been one of the best in Columbus. It is a fusion of French in Japanese and the techniques and flavors show that. Throughout the years, they have had a variety of different offerings, but they're always the same staples, which is their incredible baked goods, their cakes and sweet cake rolls, a small variety, sandwich, sandwiches and fun drink drinks. They currently have sweet crêpes, but they used to have savory who wants as well back in the day. This entire plaza is an Asian heaven, and I like to bring people from out of town to it because you can literally spend hours in this area. As you can tell for my photos, they are always this busy. The place itself is nice and clean, and the staff is friendly. I'm not a sweet person at all, so I like that this place has unique offerings and some savory ones too. I recommend the mango cake, the sweet butter rolls that literally taste like a slightly sweeten butter inside of a soft pillow bread, and for you to take a loaf of bread home as well. Pro tip: later in the day, the offerings from this bakery are half off at Tensuke Market. This place has been voted as one of the best bakeries in the country & we have it in our own backyard. If you haven't tried it yet, you are missing out.
