The service was amazing, our waiter was very nice and welcoming as well as patient. The vibe of this restaurant/cafe was very calm and rustic chic. It is a little smaller but that might just be because of how busy they are. I got the grilled cheese and apple pumpkin soup and it was amazing. I had never had apple pumpkin soup but it went very well with the grilled cheese and is more flavorful than regular tomato soup. My entire family loved what they got. We all tried each others and everyone liked what they got. My sisters and I got the Chais and they were the best we have ever had. I am not a fan of coffee so I just got a chai without the espresso but both kinds were very good and the presentation is amazing. We are from out of town but if we ever come back to Columbus, Ohio this will be at the top of our list to revisit. read more

Amazing breakfast just on the edge of German Village. The huevos rancheros and pimento cheese omelette were fantastic. The pimento cheese was sweet and spicy. The dining area was intimate and very pretty. And the service was quick and extremely friendly. Highly recommend. read more

Very small space but the chef provided big flavors. Unique food offerings outside of your usual breakfast traditions. Our coffees were delicious.

I saw a lot of great reviews about this house turned restaurant. It's a tight spot but well worth the wait. They were out of a lot of menu items by time we were seated. However, the burger I had was one of the best ever. You could taste the fresh, quality ingredients in every bite. Our server was also helpful and knowledgeable about the menu. Whether you're looking for breakfast or lunch, this place has something for everyone! read more

Wow, if you've not been here it needs added to your list. I had the Sando and although the poached eggs weren't as runny as I would have preferred the flavor in the dish was fantastic. I'd definitely have it again, although I'd request runny yolks, more like their instagram photo. Definitely check out their insta to get an idea before you go. My daughter asked for a grilled cheese ( not on the menu) and they happily accommodated and it was great. My wife had griddled biscuits and fingerling potatoes. We all had some of the potatoes and equally delicious. In the end we shared a griddled cinnamon roll which we were all impressed with. Start to finish, this is a fantastic restaurant. read more

We enjoyed this little brunch spot, menu is very unique and food was amazing. We lived the chipotle hot sauce so much got a bottle to go.

It was overpriced and not flavorful. The service was mediocre. Very disappointing experience. I believe that the place could be better with better food choice. read more

This place is eclectic, beautiful, has great food and great service! It is a little on the high price and so be ready to spend some money on breakfast. The only reason I gave four stars is the poached egg was very cooked like a hard egg. I got steak and eggs and the steak was amazing. But I couldn't eat the egg. I will try this place again and I'm sure that it will be amazing, because I will ask for the poached egg to be less cooked. If you're looking for a unique breakfast spot, this is definitely the place for you! read more

I like to always start with the positive so let's talk about the eclectic and cozy atmosphere of this restaurant and the kind service staff. Now let me explain my rating. The menu is very limited and ask people to pay $17 for a cheese omelette with nothing else along with it -- way above market price. Given the size of the restaurant and likely their kitchen space, they seem to run out of popular items far too early on a Sunday morning (10:30 a.m.), such as cinnamon rolls, sausage and the chocolate pastry. I also expect that for Sunday breakfast anywhere I go that bacon would be available, but I was told that the menu changes regularly and this morning there was no bacon on the menu. For me that's not acceptable for breakfast. This was our first time at this restaurant, so we didn't know what to expect and based on what we saw on yelp, we thought we would be pleased, but turned out to be disappointed. Bottom line - the restaurant is overpriced, and does not have a sufficient menu and supply of product. Bottom line - we spent $62 for two cheese, omelettes, 2 cups of coffee and a small pastry with nothing on the side available with the omelettes. That's too rich for my blood. read more

I'm pretty torn between a 3 and 4 star on this one, but overall I'd say the experience was pleasant. For a late Sunday morning, we found easy street parking, no wait for a table, and all around very quick service (almost a bit concerning how fast the food came out). Note that this spot is small and has very limited indoor seating, and if you come with a party larger than 4 you'll probably have a hard time getting a table. Loved the rustic / home-y / southern vibes from the space. Menu is pretty limited and while initially when the food came out I thought the portion was small, I was quite full when all was said and done. What'd we eat you ask? Well, I did the lamb chorizo gravy and biscuit. Lots of flavor and depth to the gravy, but not much lamb chorizo. Kind of one of those things where you think you taste it, but don't really see it anywhere. I almost considered ordering a side order of sausage but an extra $6 seemed a bit pricey. By the time I finished the biscuit did it's job and filled me up. I'll say their in house chipotle sauce was excellent if you wanted more flavor and a bit of heat. My wife on the other hand did the cheese omelette and added the $6 sausage to be chopped into the omelette. I think without the sausage I'm not sure either of us would've enjoyed just a cheese omelette. Their house coffee was excellent. In terms of price, it definitely seems pricey for what it is (+$20/per person after tax and tip), but at the same time I try to justify in my mind it's really a farm to table spot which likely markets it up as it is. I can see how the reviews on this one are pretty mixed and am still scratching my head at how it's at 4.5. Anyhow, I'll go right in the middle on this one. 'Til next time, cheers! read more

First time here, for brunch on Saturday. I was not prepared for the lack of vegetarian options. I didn't want just a cinnamon roll or a muffin, so the only thing without meat was the Cheesy Blintz entree. They were very good, but a small portion of 3 for $13. I had their special Apple Cider & Rye brunch beverage that was offered (the other boozy option was a Bloody Mary). Very good. Our server was very nice as well. I was just disappointed after hearing for years how wonderful this place is. I walked out $30 (with tip) poorer, knowing I won't be back. read more

Cheesy potatoes alone are worth the trip. Coffee is great. The homemade hot sauce was pretty good, but I could go either way on it. Service was attentive and super helpful! read more

Comfort food for breakfast? I'm there. Chorizo omelette was delicious and super flavorful. Breakfast sandwich was huge and you needed a knife and fork - perfect. The cheesy taters were phenomenal. Everything is quite rich and delicious. And greasy. Ingredients are super fresh! This is definitely a treat yo self occasion and you can't eat here regularly if you care about your cardiovascular health haha. The Cold brew and house brewed coffee are delicious. Decor is cute and rustic. Only eight tables inside so if you don't time it right, you'll be on waitlist. Super satisfying meal. read more

Good, service and ambiance were incredible. It's the best breakfast, full of flavor that I've had in a long time!

Kinda fru-fru farm to table locally sourced breakfast spot but good food. They might go a lil overboard in creativity since sometimes you just want it simple but delish but I'll give em A fit effort. The root beer jam not to my liking but then again I don't l like root beer lol I had a basic omelette and the hubby tried the lamb sausage along with a fried egg n biscuits - we both found the lamb sausage too wild tasting or gamey I'd say try it once but that might be it - it tried too hard to be edgy but for me it went too far. Their coffee is really robust and flavorful- that was maybe the best part of my visit! read more

Very cozy space with excellent food, cocktails and service. The smoked chop dish was completely unexpected and SO DELICIOUS. It was almost bacon-y, totally smoky, salty, unctuous and crispy and served on a cheesy, creamy and generous serving of grits. I barely ate half of it. We started with biscuits and jelly. The biscuits were very unique as they seemed to embody every possible biscuit texture in the same bite. It's a delicious mystery. Last and not least - they only have a liquor license. The cocktails are creative and deceptively boozy. This place makes me want to move to Columbus. read more

A Gem in German Village! Located in the Schumacher Place; neighboring German Village and Merion Village, this quant dining spot offers an urban edge with seasonal driven, farm to table comfort classics like biscuits and gravy and shrimp and grits. When you walk into this restaurant, you forget you are in Columbus. The cozy interior, brick walls, limited seating makes you feel like you are in NYC or Boston. You can expect a long wait time, as the restaurant is very small, so I highly recommend going early in the morning. They are only open Friday-Sunday from 8:00 AM - 1:30 PM. Although the wait time can be long, the restaurant does offer free street parking. Skillet is known for partnering with local Ohioan farmers and producers. The menu changes daily based on seasonal ingredients. When I dined at the restaurant, I had the sinfully delicious cinnamon roll drizzled in bourbon, caramel, and maple icing. It was AMAZING and worth every calorie!!! The cinnamon roll truly lives up to their slogan of "always ingredient driven with complex flavors, but never complicated." If you have a sweet tooth or looking for a memorable brunch spot, enjoy a delicious and intimate brunch at Skillet. It is truly the epitome of "Rustic Urban Food." read more

This has been on the list to try for quite awhile. Went for a Sunday brunch today around 11:30, was able to get in within a half hour. Place is super cozy with a few tables inside, great rustic atmosphere. Staff was very friendly. The menu is ever changing as they cook with what's in season. We started with the Bloody Mary, it was pickled which made it unique but it was a bit overwhelming for me. For 13$ you want a cocktail to have fresh and bold flavors but it was to the point of being overbearing with the bitterness. I would go with something else next time. Food included an angus burger with pimento cheese, bacon and greens served with kettle chips. We also split the omelet with Brussels, butternut squash and chorizo. Everything we ate was delicious and worth the price. Servings were hardy and hit the spot. The great eats alone will keep us coming back. read more

Skillet - Pimento cheeseburger, pickled Bloody Mary and a chorizo omelet - New American Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

This place's menu changes based on available ingredients so there are new finds every time you stop by. The inside of the place is VERY small but creates a nice, homey, hole-in-the-wall experience. I got the steak and eggs which was mostly great, but seemed to be slightly over cooked to where it was a bit chewy. I deducted a couple of stars from that because it was pretty pricey and not a large cut. The sides along with it were really good. My friend got the omelette which was well cooked and a large serving. The only problem was that it was a bit hard to eat since the omelette and insides itself kept falling apart into smaller pieces whenever you dug into it. Overall I would come back but likely try its other foods! read more

This is our second time going after the living in the neighborhood for over four years. Skillet does an excellent job with takeout. Our main entrees were separated from the sauce and the containers were sturdy. I ordered the lamb gravy with biscuits and my boyfriend got the mushroom gravy with biscuits. My meal was a bit salty, but overall, flavorful; same with his. The biscuits are the star though! They are thick, crumbly, buttery, and utterly satisfying! Also, the portions are quite large -- big enough to share. But I will say, I had TWO hairs in my food so that was a major turn off. We also got a cinnamon bun as a snack for later. Although it was very sweet, the two sauces added for a unique and tasty treat. Overall, if you're in German Village I recommend this farm to table restaurant... for takeout because there isn't much seating inside. read more

Love this place! I had heard about it a while ago from a friend who used to live in Columbus so it had been on my list of places to try for quite some time. I came on a Friday morning with two other friends and this was probably the best time to go because no line! It was a little past 8 am and there was a girl dining with her mom. Later on in the hour, a few groups came in but it never got quite packed. The space was interesting. It reminded me of a diner from the 70s with the wood paneling and the fans. The exposed brick was a nice feature too. They modernized the space a little with trendy chairs and mason jars over the lights. The menu was small but all the items looked good. We all ordered different things. I got huevos rancheros, which had two crunchy tortillas with very well-seasoned beans, an egg on top, a sprinkle of cheese, and guacamole. It was very delicious and presented well on the plate. My friend got smoked duck and andouille gravy and biscuits. Her meal was huge! It came with an enormous scrabbled egg laid on top of the biscuits. The gravy and duck were sprinkled all over the top. Yummy! It had a nice flavor to it. Really cool dish! My other friend got Hog and hominy, which was cheese grits on the bottom with a tomato gravy mixed with pork and then a poached egg laid on top. Very delicious!! They did a great job with the uniqueness of the dishes and presentation was pretty good for the most part. Prices are a little higher here, but it's local and they're using ingredients that aren't all that cheap anyway. My friends said the coffee and black tea were good too! Service was great. Our waitress checked up on us a few times. Food came out in maybe 10-15 minutes. It wasn't long, but they also weren't that busy. Parking is no issue either as you can find parallel parking right out front or just a few yards down the street. read more

Pretty expensive for what you get. I had the Italian chicken sausage omelette and it was good. My husband had the lamb omelette and it was not good, it had zero flavor.

Cool little restaurant we discovered for breakfast, they had really good drinks and the biscuit in the biscuit and gravy was REALLY good.

The food is amazing. We've moved here from the South and enjoy having brunch. This quaint spot didn't disappoint.

*Pre-COVID19 back in February* Their pork chops are on fire!! Really. They know how to cook their meats super well! From the right temperature to the crispy/seared crust and delicious flavors, I thoroughly enjoyed my dish and had to share it with my date since she was not a huge fan of hers. My date ordered their grilled cheese blend and though I actually thought it was a nice rustic blend of cheese, she did not like the soft cheese and it's slight sweetness component. So it's really a preference but to each their own! Note: their seasonal menu and selection of cuts are limited, so try them before they run out for the day! I hope they are doing well during these surreal times! I'll be back to try your coffees, drinks, and more! read more

Went this past weekend to Skillet and it was an enjoyable experience. The staff was fantastic! The seating area is small and there usually is a wait in the weekends so be prepared. The morning we went, it was hot inside and it seemed like they didn't have any AC on which made it a little unpleasant. Jumping to the food, it was good but nothing over the top. My friend got the sausage and biscuits and it was a decent portion size but lacked appeal both visually and taste. I got the cheesy potatoes with eggs. The taste was all one note really and again, visually, it looked kind of gross (you eat first with your eyes) with the long cheese curds. It may have tasted and looked better with smaller, cut potatoes, smaller cheese curds, and more seasoning. The knockout, amazing item were the biscuits with cherry jam...absolutely amazing and would get those again 100%. read more

Now we're talkin! This is how you do breakfast. Forget the pancakes, the waffles, or your mothers oatmeal. Yes those are all good, but everyone stays In that lane. Where's the creativity? Apparently it can be found at Skillet! First of all, the more exposed brick a restaurant has, the more enjoyable the meal will be....yep that's a thing, a scientifically proven theory. Ok maybe just it's my thing, but it hasn't been proven otherwise so I'm rolling with it. A simple space with both interior and exterior(seasonal of course) seating, I hear the wait on weekends can be brutal but you won't have much difficulty on a weekday. The menu is loaded with creative options, some of the best include: Morning bun - a pastry which honestly looks like a cinna bun. Flaky and filled with gruyere cheese, served with a hefty side of whipped butter. Cheese blintzes: sheeps milk ricotta. Yep, that's what you just ate, and it's wonderful. Surrounded by a light and airy crepes topped with berries and a dust of powdered sugar. It makes you smile just to read it :-) Biscuits and gravy: OMG...save the best for last. An absolute flavor explosion. Yes the biscuit is good but the gravy? Mr. gravy, take a bow, you are the real star of this show. The pepper takes this gravy to another level. Easily the best biscuits and gravy dish I've consumed. Did I already say OMG? This neighborhood breakfast & brunch restaurant spot is a can't miss for any breakfast lover. read more

I'm not sure how this place is rated as well as it is. The food is good, but nothing special- they don't give you much outside the entree (no sides unless you pay much more). We had the sausage and biscuit, which was comprised of bits of sausage in a very rich gravy over scrambled eggs and a biscuit- kind of simple. I can't believe how much I paid for this and to have drinks so light on alcohol. Seating is extremely cramped and you can't escape the draft from the door. The service is decent and friendly, but overall this place was a huge disappointment. I may give this place one more try. read more
