- DDougBaltimore / Maryland •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoHad a great evening with exceptional service by Alex and very good food. We had the curry mussels, tater tots, baked oysters and Harbor salad. All were quite unique and very tasty. We especially enjoyed the Harbor salad which we split among the table. We also had the punch bowl which was a nice drink option but required some extra effort to finish despite splitting between 4 of us. Probably better for a party of 6. Overall it was a great evening at The Pearl.More infoThe Pearl - Short NorthPrice: Expensive• Gastro Pub• Short North - Arena District•4.7

- MMorganTampa / Central Florida West •3 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoI love coming here. I have celiac disease so it’s always a little hard going out to eat, but Lindey’s is always so fantastic. I have never had a reaction after eating here. Our waitress tonight was extra amazing and helpful. This is our go to spot for special occasions and visiting family/friends. Never change Lindey’s!! P.S. if you ever start to make gluten free bread and pastries in your bakery you will have customers in this area!!!! I will be your #1 customer!!!More infoLindey'sPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• German Village•4.8

- OTOpenTable DinerDallas - Fort Worth •2 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoThis is where my boyfriend and I chose to eat as our first meal in Columbus, Ohio! It did not disappoint. We had an 8:45 reservation, but went early and sat at the bar to have a drink and a couple of appetizers. We ordered the steak tartare and the oyster mushrooms. The steak tartare was fresh, cold, and had your classic tartare flavor. Texture was great as the meat wasn’t over minced. The mushrooms were “calamari” style and came with a couple of dipping sauces. The truffle aioli and the tomato fondue. I do wish we had more bigger bites of the oyster mushroom. We were fishing for them on the plate. Once at a table (we asked to be moved in order to accommodate the addition of friends also flying in — which the staff kindly and graciously accommodated us) we ordered the lampchops with the vegetable fried rice. I do believe this was by far the best bite of our evening. Definitely a must try. For our entree, we ordered the agnolotti and the sea bass. The agnolotti was flavorful with a generous amount of lobster! The seabass was cooked well and the light broth it came with was delicious. We ordered broccolini as a side dish which also didn’t disappoint We’re excited to come back to try more menu items!More infoThe Guild House - ColumbusPrice: Expensive• American• Columbus•4.8
