    Crispy roasted potatoes
    Tom P.

    Was in Powel and decided to stop in for brunch. Right off the bat their scones are so good, They are seasonal and on this day it was cheddar and bacon so good. I started off with the Breakfast burrito this burrito is loaded. Starts off with a huge piece of egg soufflé, tomato and corn salsa, fresh avocado, crispy red skin potatoes, black bean, cheddar cheese on a flour tortilla. Yes, all that on one burrito, it was outstanding. I also ordered a side of the crispy roasted potatoes, these are seasoned perfectly and a great addition to the brunch. My only issue is it's a pricey brunch but the food is fresh, and very tasty.

    Thai Peanut Quinoa Bowl
    Meg H.

    Had a great lunch outside in the patio at the Locust Table. The menu is small yet packs a lot of variety, all fairly, healthy fresh options for salads, quinoa bowls, sandwiches, breakfast options, and treats. You order inside at the counter and the food is brought to your table. I ordered the Thai peanut quinoa bowl with chicken, a half heirloom tomato salad, and a chocolate chip cookie, all of which were very tasty. The portions are not huge, but they are filling and well-made. I look forward to returning.

    Avocado toast
    Sarah W.

    Recently had brunch here with friends and it was delicious! I got the avocado toast with an egg on the side and my son had a grilled cheese. My friend had the lemon French toast and another one of my friends has the egg sandwich. It's not a typical sit down restaurant and you order up front and they bring out your food, but the food came out quick and the staff same to check on us regularly. Lots of great lighting and they were even playing the Palms which is always going to help with the vibe.

    Lunch today at The Locust Table in Powell, Ohio was amazing! I loved everything about this place! The indoor and outdoor seating, the atmosphere, the friendly staff, the cleanliness and the food! Everything was excellent! We were traveling and just passing through but I fell in love with this town!

    KOREAN PULLED PORK QUINOA BOWL
    Eleni P.

    When did The Locust Table start serving dinner?! What a great surprise. Since we always loved the breakfast and lunch there, could not wait to check out the dinner menu. So many unique, healthy dishes. I got the Korean Pulled Pork quinoa bowl, the flavors were amazing. The restaurant is adorable and has a nice outdoor patio. Noticed signage about happy hour, another reason for a return trip. Highly recommend

    Peaches n cream scone
    Laura F.

    Was at a coffee house down the road that didn't have scones. (Imo all coffee houses should have scones! Did a quick yelp search and found this great little brunch spot called the Locust Table. This brunch spot also does carry out coffees and bakery items as well as full service brunch. They carry blueberry, peaches n cream and a savory ham and cheese scones. I chose this peach scone and was super surprised when I found it also was made from whole wheat and had pecans in it-- Both bonuses for me! Will return for a proper meal in a month or two as everything that servers brought out and passed by me as I stood there ordering, looked amazing.

    Egg Sandwich
    Maria M.

    Love the Egg Sandwich and breakfast foods! Self serve coffee you can refill as much as you want while popping up your laptop if fun. Light and airy atmosphere with lots of window light and plants. A great place to meet friends on weekends and breakfast brunch! Have not tried the dinner yet, but intend to.

    Blueberry Earl Gray Lavender Scone
    Kara S.

    I had a nice time. The inside was cute and garden like. The food was good, but I don't feel this is the first place I would pick to go back to again. The service was good, everyone was so nice. I had the Belgium Waffle and the Blueberry Earl Gray Lavender Scone. It was good.

    Came here with my wife for our date night due to the Yelp reviews. Pleasantly surprised. Restaurant…read moreis VERY clean, interesting menu with a selection of appetizers, salads, sandwiches & entrees. I had the Caesar salad w/grilled chicken. Salad was fresh with perfectly cooked chicken that was tasty. My wife had the pork carnitas bowl, which was a healthy portion and delicious according to my wife. Two Rivers has been open two years, which is amazing as we weren't even aware of it. According to our waitress, they hear that a lot. They do take reservations, but it really wasn't needed. A mix of high tops, tables and a nice bar. Bright airy interior and a covered exterior patio.

    I've been meaning to go to this restaurant for a while. We went on a Saturday evening and there…read morewere plenty of tables available. The ambiance is low key but nice. Everyone from the hostess to our server was very friendly and nice. They have a full bar and a decent selection of beers. My wife and I decided to share their whipped ricotta appetizer and their French onion burger. The appetizer came with thinly cut crusted baguette. The ricotta cheese was mixed with some strawberry flavor. It wasn't bad but I would have preferred it to be thicker in constituency. The burger and fries came out perfectly cut into half portions for each of us, which was a really nice touch. We had asked for the burger to be cooked medium rare and I think it came out more like a medium well. The patty itself was a bit dry. This may be a one off issue and we hope to return to try some other dishes.

    Top 5 restaurant in central Ohio. Well deserved. Nice menu, but your choices are limited. I was…read moresurprised, of the five entree choices, two were pork (we don't eat pork) and no chicken option. We settled on the steak and black cod, although we really did not want red meat. Our server Kelcie, who was 5* by the way, helped us in navigating all the intricacies to the ingredients. Lots of nuance to the menu. Our choices: lamb appetizer, black cod, sirloin, and chocolate mousse; each were tasty, presented well, and excellent dishes. The potato cake on the steak was very different and well done. Our Old Fashion had a nice taste. The place is very small and reservations are a must. The GM Michael came by and chatted us up...to thank us for coming, and glad they were able to accommodate our food needs. Nice touch. Excellent bathrooms. Thanks for that. Be prepared to spend $100 per person. Welcome to the Columbus culinary scene.

    I was in town to celebrate my mother's 96 birthday and was out with my son and daughter in law…read more They highly recommended this unique restaurant and we were not disappointed. The small cozy atmosphere was a delight to enjoy a wonderful meal and conversation. The drinks were exceptionally great and since I'm coming from California, very affordable. The food was delicious, especially the braised beef croquets, chicken friend mushrooms, whipped ricotta, and sourdough. The pork collar and the tare squash were beautifully presented and tasted wonderful. I requested the sommelier to recommend a wine that would compliment our order and the Domaine de Ferrand Chateauneuf - du- Pape a fine French wine from the Rhone Valley was our selection. This was a beautiful bottle and fine selection. John, our server was the perfect gentlemen and server with great personality and full of customer service.

    Feels like a neighborhood bar. Lots of TV sets with closed captions…read more Loved the French onion soup because it has a rich, thick beef broth as the base. The onion rings were more plentiful this evening rather than the last time we were here. The Hugo Spritz depends a lot upon who makes it. The price certainly is better than LA prices. Good service.

    We waited to order. We waited longer for the food. How long for the food....?…read moreWell from the time we "ordered" over 45 minutes and never received food. we left hungry and cold. (It was freezing inside that restaurant) It was relatively empty The server was nice. Not sure what the delay was. kathy the server said there was a huge take out order that delayed our order and ours would be right out. (Which I feel may have been a fib.... Not sure but my gut say probably.... Why? No one had come in for a "big"take out order, I think she forgot to log in our order as she was distracted with the table next to us that had their former cook there. I could see that easily happening under this situation.) After waiting another three minutes and no food, we were "over" Over the Counter and nicely told her were leaving. To cancel our order. She nicely tried to entice us to stay saying the owner was going to give us a gift certificate... but that just further solidified that they "knew" our meals timing had gone sideways and we had been neglected. We chose to leave and we dont really plan on coming back. Why? The inside seemed old. We saw the kitchen from our table. It seemed disorganized. It gave off a bad vibe. Add our wait. Meh. Like I said Im over over the table.
