Wow. What more can I say?! What a gem in old worthington. Truly the best egg sandwich I've had, packed with flavors. And the bread is just out of this world!! Like you're eating an egg sammy (in a box!) with buttery French toast like bread. Cute little casual spot, something for everyone (vegan, vegetarian, and GF options). Cannot wait to try more read more

A hidden gem in historic Worthington, joya's offers a unique taste of bengali fusion in Columbus, Ohio! Great spot for breakfast or brunch, but I stopped in for a quick drink. Got the iced chai and was pleasantly surprised by how floral it tasted. Ambience is delightful with several bar seats, outdoor tables, and a vintage nintendo console/monitor setup! Definitely a must-try spot. read more

Heard so much about this place and decided to stop in. So glad I did! So many options and the staff was so friendly. Was very busy but managed to grab a seat. I ordered the cheesy double crunch tacos with chicken. It was so delicious! A bit pricey but well worth it! read more

Wow, I finally made it to Joya's today and had an amazing experience! It looked so busy when I walked in, but they are super efficient! From time of order to the time I was finishing my Thai tea was probably 40 minutes. I chose the crispy chicken sandwich and was so happy with my decision. The glaze on the chicken was spicy and sweet, and I couldn't have said more about the slaw! And the chili aioli was fantastic. A well-rounded sandwich, something you don't realize you need at the time. I met and spoke with Robin, who provided a little history on the business and chef Avishar, as well as amazing hospitality and a complimentary brown butter Rice Krispie treat! Many thanks, friends! I can't wait to try more of an already stellar menu! read more

Cannot recommend enough. Tight space so be prepared to sit outside or take it to go but wow is it worth it The chicken sandwich was hands down my favorite. So flavorful the sauce was tangy yet sweet. Not your typical souther chicken sandwich The breakfast sandwich was large and has a kick to it. My bf absolutely loved it - tried to get a mini but were sold out :( Toast in the box was not what we expected but again fabulous! It's almost an inside out sand which - egg on outside with bread and bacon in the middle. It gets messy but worth it read more

I loved this place! I came here with my sister and was super excited to try it, though was skeptical about whether or not it would live up to the hype. It definitely did. The inside is a little small - there are a few tables in the front and bar seating along the counter and back wall. It had a small coffee shop feel to it. The drinks were ok. We got the Thai tea and chai tea - I usually prefer my drinks to be stronger. These mostly tasted like milk. For the food, we wanted to try everything on the menu! But we settled on the Kati roll and breakfast sandwich. Now, I LOVE my Fox and the Snow egg sandwich, but there MIGHT be a new rival in town. (I love both so I can't choose a winner). The bread on the breakfast sandwich was so soft. The egg in this sandwich was more of a scrambled egg consistency- mixed with it the special Joyas sauce and it ended up being the perfect combination. The Kati roll was SO long - it was over a foot long. Inside the fried roll were eggs, beef and another deliciously sweet sauce. I was able to have leftovers for lunch the next day. My sister and I decided we definitely have to come back to try the other entrees, though maybe we'll skip the drinks next time. read more

I will now always be craving the Kati Roll! I've tried a few sandwiches and all have been delicious but OH MAN THE KATI ROLL. Bobby's Lamb Kebab, Egg, Pickled Red Onion, Joya's Apple Chutney, Maple Chaat Yogurt, Cilantro Crema, Jumbo Griddle Fried Roti = PERFECTION. If you go to Joya's, you must try it! I also ordered the toast-in-a-box and it was very tasty. The sauces on everything are seriously aaaaaamazing and the perfect compliment to each dish. Previous visits I have had the egg sandwich and chicken sandwich--again both are very very good. Love having them in Worthington though it is dangerous having them so close to home! read more

I'm gonna say it... best breakfast sandwich that I've had in Columbus! Loved trying out this Bengali- American restaurant today. 〰 Joya's Breakfast Sandwich ($13): Potato Pav, Bacon Two Ways, Cheesy Soft Scrambled Eggs, Joya's Special Sauce, Joya's Herb Chutney, Chives. The sauces were the star of the show for this sandwich. The bread was soft and fluffy. It was a little smaller than anticipated in size, however, it was packed with flavor. 〰 Joya's Latte (12 oz, $5.75): Latte with sweetened condensed milk. Wow, the sweetened condensed milk added the perfect amount of sweetness and creaminess. Added bonus for the latte design! We went around 12:00 on a Saturday and it was packed. The restaurant itself is pretty small inside. You order at the counter and find an open spot. The seating includes about 2 tables and seating at the bar and along the wall. The prices are certainly higher for a restaurant that is not a traditional sit-down place. However, I would say it was definitely worth it for the fresh, flavorful, and unique dishes. I can't wait to come back to try more dishes including the fried rice, burger, and toast-in-a-box. read more

Joya's did not disappoint-- unique and delicious lunch (and savory brunch) offerings in a very tiny space. We were lucky to grab seats at the counter (stools had backs too, which makes it more comfortable), but at peak times be prepared to have a plan B (like getting your order to go). Got the Kati roll and chicken sandwich and split it with a friend -- big portions and tons of flavor. The nitro chai was smooth and sweet (perhaps a little sweeter than expected). Can't wait to go back. read more

I have not enjoyed a meal like this in a long time. I loved everything we ordered and am so glad I went with another person so I could try a little bit of everything. We knew we would be taking something home so we ate in an order that made the most sense for that. First the breakfast sandwich! The sheer fact that there was a mini option, all stars! Sometimes you just wanna try a bite and not have to fully commit! So glad we did it. The bread. THE BREAD. i loved it so much. Sweet, fluffy, amazing! Next I went to the taco. We opted for the brisket but there are 3 options total. Would totally do the veg option--sweet potatoes and black beans. The brisket wasn't too Smokey, had some sweetness to it, delicious! Melted in your mouth. The shells were so crispy. Everything held together so well. Generous with the lettuce and the cheese, just how I love my tacos. Everything was so balanced! Could've stopped here but was told about the fried rice so obviously we had to get it. The easiest thing to take home of the 3 and it held so well as a snack for later. The blend of flavors, some sweetness, savory and a little spice. Did not try it 'Danny's Way'. I'm a purist when I'm trying new things for the first time. It might've been my favorite dine in meal this year, and even with a few days left to close out the year, I don't think anything will top it. What a great addition to Columbus. Diversify your palette, people. Make the trek. Totally worth it. read more

Wow. I cant wait to go back. The line moves fast and it's very well worth the minimal wait. Give it a try.

Was told that the chef was one of the contestants on top chef and I just knew I had to try it. My first meal by a celeb! The shop's kinda small but man it is packed! Probably all there to check meal prep by someone from top chef, I honestly don't care if he was crowned top chef or not. But I do love the food! We ordered a bunch of different items to try it out, fried rice (Danny's way), not pad thai, egg drop, breakfast sandwich, cheesy double crunch tacos. I personally love the fried rice best, there's chicken cutlet and bbq pork in there all stir fried to perfection! Cheesy double crunch wasn't as cheesy as I imagine and the taco wasn't packed with braised beef. It would have been better if there's chunks of meat with every bite. Overall, it's worth checking it out. It's kinda pricey but hey, how often can u find food cooked by a celeb? read more

Joya's has become our families Sunday breakfast go-to. My kids love the almond rose donut, my husband and I have sampled our way through most of the food and coffee menus at this point with standouts being the breakfast sandwich, the Kati roll, and the toast in a box (my current fave). The people here are so friendly and we love how playful this spot is. Will be regulars for years to come. read more

Joya is a cozy restaurant in Worthington with friendly, attentive staff. The curated dinner menu is beautifully prepared. I had the Not-Pad Thai. The tender, flavorful rice noodles are tossed in a chili sauce and wok-seared bok choy and eggplant and topped with a delicate omelette and fresh Thai basil. This is by far the best fusion dish I've had in Columbus! Thanks to Joya's for the awesome experience! read more

The absolutely best brekkie place ever. I would not pass a single opportunity to grab a nitro chai every time I arrive. It's super creamy and has ALL the spices. I've gotten the Not Pad Thai and the Breakfast Sandwich and the Egg Toast in a Box and honestly never regretted an order in my life. Also super cute location in downtown Worthington as well so what is there not to love about this place?? read more

We loved our experience at Joyas this morning in downtown Worthington. We started with the iced milk chai and nitro cold brew. We split the breakfast sandwich and toast in a cup.

We were seated at one of only two tables by the front door which was quite cold on this wintery day. Bar stools lined both sides of the narrow aisle. Service was very good. They have a very small eclectic menu where they try to meet the needs of those with dietary restrictions. I had the egg sandwich and just wasn't impressed for what cost $16 with the tip. read more

I had no idea this was Avishar, from top chef Portland, cafe when I was there and being such a fan, I'm embarrassed for myself. Anyway a My friend was just raving about it so we stopped by Saturday for quick brunch to check it out and it was very tasty. Highly recommend: - breakfast sandwich - wish it was bigger if anything but great flavors - scotch egg - surprisingly delish and came with a nice jam - Thai iced tea - perfect balance of sweet - glazed donut - a wee bit fry but still nice flavor Would love to come back and try the rest of the menu. Service was nice and there were ebbs and flows of crowds. read more

I heard so much about this place and finally tried it today. My husband and I usually order a few things and share so we get a tasting of a few things. First it was super busy with a line to the door, it's a small place so it has limited seating. We ordered the nitro chai, joyas milk chai, the joyas breakfast sandwich (13) and the Crispy Chicken Manchurian Sandwich (16). It was all very good! The nitro chai is cold, sweet and more spicy. The joyas chai can be hot or cold, we chose hot. It's less sweet and not very spicy in flavor. The Joyas breakfast sandwich was light, not overly filling but very good. $13 seems a little pricey for what it is, but it was good. The crispy chicken Manchurian sandwich was very messy, it seems to have some Korean influence with the cabbage and pickled cucumbers. It was more filling than the joyas sandwich, very tasty but again over priced in my opinion. I think I would have felt better if they offered fries/chips/hash browns with either sandwich. I would come again as a treat, not as a regular. read more

Hands down the best breakfast I have had in a very long time. We got the cheesy double crunch and the Joya's fried rice. The portions were large and unbelievably delicious. The chicken on the fried rice pretty much melts in your mouth, it is so so tender. 5/5. Highly recommend!! read more

Service was very good and the food was good. The atmosphere is normal for a small place.

Sooooo goooooooood! As a long time fan of Service Bar, I eagerly awaited the opening of Chef Avishar's new venture. It was worth the wait. It was not terribly busy on a Wednesday morning. The toast in a cup was amazing and the perfect breakfast for a lazy morning. There was so much variety of flavor and texture within one cup - nothing bland and homogenous here! The other thing that impressed me was the compostable cup, compostable utensils, and the reusable cups for water at the self service in the back. I'm not the greenest person, but I try to do my best with recycling, composting, and eliminating single use products in my home as much as possible. It's the wave of the future, and I'm so glad that Joya's is doing its part. read more

If I had to sum it up in one word: PHENOMENAL!!!! The food here isn't cheap, but you are paying for fresh and well-curated ingredients. You can tell everything is made fresh that morning and that these flavor profiles are very well thought out. Everything that entered my mouth was a wonderful burst of flavors and textures. I have not one negative thing to say about this food. I don't know what my favorite item was, as I tried both the Kati roll and the Breakfast sandwich (Bobby's way). They were both absolutely amazing. I'm sorry to not give better descriptions, but I was truly blown away by how good this food was. My cortadito was also perfectly sweetened without being too much, very good! The only worked I interacted with was the guy behind the counter taking our orders, and he was very delightful and helpful. Our food came out within 10 minutes and was warm. The only thing I have to say negatively is that this space is very small for the amount of people who want to eat there. That's definitely the customer's problem, not the restaurants. Ambiance was a warm and cozy vibe, even with so many people in a small space. I loved it and I can't wait to be back. read more

I was finally able to try the food after months of trying to get in. Every time we've tried to get some food, they are super busy. The food is really good but WOW - it is not cheap. I had the Double Crunch Tacos with an Ice Chai Tea, and my husband had the Chicken Sandwich with water. That's it. The total was $39 before tip. That is pretty expensive for a lunch. And the portions are not all that significant. My husband was still hungry after he ate his sandwich and the tacos were relatively small. If you're super hungry, you might want to go somewhere else. read more

This restaurant was brand new to me. I was in search of great place for best place for brunch in Columbus and this was on the list. Seating is limited but they quickly filter people in and out.

I visited about a month ago with some friends and had a great experience. The restaurant is located in a cute area in Worthington surrounded by other shops and restaurants. There is a convenient parking lot behind the restaurant which is nice. The times I've been there, it has been packed so that tells you how delicious and popular it is. We waited in line for not too long, ordered, and our food came in a pretty good time considering how busy it was. I got my chai milk first and it was delicious. My boyfriend and I shared the breakfast sandwich Bobby's way and the Kati roll. Both were delicious and had hints of Indian spices which I really love. The flavors were so different from what I'm used to and they all went well together. I would definitely go back to try something new. Joyas has amazing dishes and great service. read more

A lot of hype around this place. I had a free morning so I decided to stop in. It's in downtown or "old" worthington so parking was a little tricky. It was around 9am so I went with the breakfast sandwich although the chicken sandwich was verrrrry tempting. I also ordered the hot chai. I waited for a little while, think they are still working out the kinks. But the breakfast sandwich was so so good! I am usually not a big egg girl but the flavors really balanced themselves out well here. I would be back maybe closer to lunch to try out their other items! read more

We got the Manchurian sandwich, Kathi Roll (one of the best bites of food in Columbus, IMO) and not pad Thai. Everything is so well seasoned and has such an array of Bengali and Eastern flavors. Great coffee selection too. Man, I hope this place opens up for dinner also!! read more

The food and drinks are all delicious. I especially loved the Kati roll (perfect balance of savory and sweet, with a hint of spiciness, though the roll itself is fried, so it is a little greasy and I have trouble getting through more than half of it at once) and breakfast sandwich (each bite is so fluffy--it tastes much better than the simple appearance gives off! Not sure what magic they did haha). My friends also enjoyed their hash puppies and fried rice. The browned butter Rice Krispie was amazing. Drinks wise, would definitely get any of the coffees or chais again. It can be hard to find a place to sit when we came here for Saturday lunch, but you can always order for takeout. Food came pretty quickly (within 5-10 min). Music was nice and not too loud for conversation. Would definitely come back again. read more

Ever since I heard of Joya's concept (Bengali-inspired breakfast food?!) I've been excited to stop by. I really enjoyed the ambiance of the space, which felt creative & inspired without being intimidating, with cool nitro taps, little gift shelves, and even free sparkling water on tap (!!). The chicken samosa was the singular best samosa I've ever had: the outside was perfectly fried, and filling was fresh. Unfortunately, the two sandwiches we tried (the Manchurian chicken & breakfast sandwich) were underwhelming in comparison, and tasted almost indistinguishable from those of competitors. The chicken was dry and Manchurian sauce was overpoweringly sweet. If I was to return, I think I would venture to trying more complex savory items instead. read more

Finally got to try this place. This place has cute aesthetics and food is great. We have tried breakfast sandwich (Veg) and Toast in a box (Veg) both turned out to be good. The egg in the sanwich is fluffy and saucy, Potato pav is perfectly done and worth trying.
