   My fiancé and I tried Fyr in Columbus for the first time this past weekend. We did not have any expectations as we had not heard of the place through word of mouth or by searching for particular cuisine. We wanted a high-end location that was close to (preferable inside) of the hotel we were staying and this place suited that need. We started the dinner with Enipada's, a dragonfly cocktail for her, and an old fashioned for me. The Enipada's came out quickly and were flaky, tasted amazing. The drinks were well served. Our server, Avion, did well explaining the menu to us in terms of her favorites but the collaboration of menu items didn't make much sense to us in the end. Normally at a place like this I would want to feel encouraged to explore, we did not feel encouraged to explore. I had the lamb shank, and my fiancé had the filet mignon. We also had asparagus, and crispy potatoes as sides. The lamb shank was well presented and perfectly cooked. I very much enjoyed it. The filet mignon left me wanting, my fiancé also did not enjoy it very much. It lacked any real development in the flavor and seemed to devalue the cut. The side dishes were both served well and complimented the other dishes, however again, the potatoes were underdeveloped in flavor. The asparagus has a good dressing, and the cheese help set it them apart. We finished with a Brulé crepes. I found them fun and the tableside preparation, paired with origin story helped me enjoy them but my fiancé felt it was too felt they just were too "soft omelet" and not really crepe. Maybe not enough chocolate or crisp from the powdered sugar, but overall desert was muted for her. Fyr doesn't really have an atmosphere to set it apart from other dining experiences although it was clean and nice, I can say that about a lot of places. The menu seems exciting but does feel cohesive and thus mostly goes unexplored. Since we live in the Columbus area, and for its cost probably won't try again.

   The food was just not tasty. No flavor. For the price we paid I expected more.

   NYE package was overpriced for the value, but they did a great job with the ambiance.

   Loved everything about our dinner at FYR. Great open fire kitchen with Argentina parrilla. Food was amazing, from starter to dessert. Favorites if the night was skirt steak and the side of grilled carrots. The gnocchi was also delicious. The place is big and spacious with a nice setting of tables around the room making the ambiance super nice for every occasion ( large or small parties). Want to go back to try lunch menu too.

   Food was really good! Be prepared to spend a lot, but the quality was top notch. Interior and decor were very good vibes!

   The food portions are way too small considering the prices charged.

   The food was amazing. Prepared with sofistication, care and the perfect finish. It was like I was not in Columbus. The chef came around and talked to us and explained his background and experience. Wonderful setting. The filet simply melted in your mouth. Highly, highly, recommend.

   This place is a 10/10. The aesthetics was giving luxury. I loved the hospitality and don’t even get me started on their food! Chef Sebastian stole our stomachs and hearts. I wish I could remember the managers name but when my friend was lost he helped her through the phone to find a parking spot. I will definitely return!!

    Food was unbelievable. We bought the shirt steaks and melted in your mouth. Flavor was bursting. Desserts were great. Baked Alaskan and the Crepes. Both finished at your table. Highly recommend. Looking forward to try another dish next time.
