It was a very busy night, but the staff all had plenty time to have a nice chat and show us around and ask questions.
The atmosphere was loud but not deafening and seemed fun.
My starter chicken and waffles has to be one of the nicest things I've had in the USA over many trips. Tasted fantastic, crunchy savoury waffles, just the right amount of sweet and the herby crispy chicken was amazing. The only problem was the starter portion could have been a main - and I love my food and am a big guy!! However I persevered and after a short break I was ready go for my main.
Now shrimp and grits is a widely served dish and I had it on a number of menus. This was the best. Delicious deep peppery flavours, perfect shrimp, and delightful creamy grits. Just delicious. My wife had the bone in pork chop which was equally fantastic and delicious.
I was ready to explode by this point but felt I needed to soldier on into the dessert menu. Luckily the creme brulee was small - but perfectly formed, a great end to a great dinner!
Cannot recommend enough.
Wow! We are from Southern California, but frequently come to Columbus to visit relatives. We've been wanting to try this restaurant for a while, and finally had an opportunity when Epic was closed for Thanksgiving week. We started with the amazing fried green tomato appetizer, split their incredible Southern take on the wedge salad and were completely blown away by the entrées. My wife had the trout and I had the fillet. It was the most tender, best cooked, perfectly glazed fillet I've ever had. We met with the staff and they explained that by the spring everything in the restaurant will be 100% farm to table. Even in SoCal that's a rarity. I'm very impressed and have another great reason to come back to Columbus.
Service was outstanding. Seated right away. Ordered a couple of beers from Grayton Beer. Appetizers - waffle and fried chicken excellent and caprice and Fried green tomatoes excellent. Main courses included lamb chops with sweet potato mash, filet with wild mushroom gravy, and a butger and fries. Everything very v good, but sweet potato mash slightly cold. Desserts included carrot cake, rocky road, and bread pudding. Carrot cake was our favorite followed by the rocky road. Can't wait to go back - highly recommended.
A different take on traditional Southern cuisine. Overall, I enjoyed the lunch I had. There are some accessibility issues that you can read about on my blog.
I have eaten here on three different occasions and it has been hit or miss. Every time I have eaten here I order the same thing but I might vary on the appetizers. Don't get the alligator bites though! We ordered those and they tasted the way pond scum smells. It was so disgusting. I get the black tea salad and the chocolate mouse for dessert. Both have been super tasty and I love the unique spin on both. As far as the staff, the first and second time it took a while to get a waiter and our food was slow to come out. The other time service was fairly decent.
I think there are a few kinks to work out but over all I think its a fairly decent place to dine.
Had the soul food burger. Would have to say it was the best burger I have ever had anywhere. Service was great I would recommend 11th and bay to anyone. Great place.
11th and Bay Filet. The steak was succulent, and the fries were savory. Best fries I've ever tasted (truffle butter fries)!
I am honestly confused on how this restaurant doesn’t have perfect reviews. Our waiter was incredible. The food was locally farm sourced, cooked perfectly, and outstandingly delicious. Spectacular dirty martini. The white chocolate bread pudding oh my. Free and easy parking. Our dog sat on the patio with us. Wow. Don’t miss this experience.
You can definitely taste the love in the food. The ambiance is perfect with spacious seating for groups and couples. All the food was amazing and the service was A1. The table biscuits and the smoked chicken legs were the perfect appetizer. The sauce was the icing on the cake.
Incredible Atmosphere and friendly staff. The Smokey Old Fashioned had a unique presentation and tasted great. It’s usually very busy and parking is ok so I would recommend a reservation and add some extra time to get parking out of the way.
One of the best Old Fashion's I've ever had! Presentation of drinks and plating were superb. Food was fresh and cooked perfectly. Beautiful rustic dining room. The staff were very friendly and warm. Limited entree selections, and no side veggie options but great dining experience overall!
We had a great meal on their covered/heated patio. Our puppy came with us too. Please order the smoked oysters...so tasty!
We were in town for a few nights for work and was looking a nice company dinner. We went to 11th and Bay on our second night and was floored about how amazing and well executed the food was prepared. It was so great we went on back to back nights. The southern caprese was a favorite as well as the smoked oysters. As for drinks. The pecan smoked old fashioned was presented in a box filled with smoke from pecan wood. I highly recommend going to this restaurant even if you’re just passing by.

My wife and I have been visiting this restaurant for the last year. At the time we weren’t married and I wanted to take this amazing woman I was dating on a nice date. We were graciously greeted by the bar staff at the time, Kelly and Aya, and became fast friends. The restaurant and staff are warm, welcoming and friendly but to our surprise became like family during our short stay in Columbus.
What I can say about the food is nothing short of exceptional. Consistency is key in building a strong business and we have never once been disappointed by the food. Instead, we continue to be blown away by the creativity and innovative ways Chef Heather and Mike find ways to turn simple and quality ingredients into culinary triumphs.
This place turns strangers into family and for me and my wife, it was home.
Thank you Chef Heather and Chef Mike, the bar staff Cori and Aya, the frontmen Blake and Aiden, the servers Kiante and Bo. And any one else whose names were forgetting. Most of all, thank you Kelly. Thank you all for providing more than just food for us, for providing family and friendship.

We highly recommend the Pork Chop, Shrimp & Grits and Pecan Smoked Old Fashioned. You won’t regret it.
Awesome place! The owner Mike and his bar staff really made my work trip awesome! They have amazing food, delicious cocktails, and a GREAT bourbon selection!! If you’re looking for a great place, then look no further!
