    Maybe a little overhyped. Starters of beef carpaccio and whipped ricotta were excellent. Complimentary bread service was a nice touch. Service was very good. Pasta choices, for an Italian restaurant, were not that great. Shrimp and rigatoni is an odd pairing. Didn’t have the basil pesto dish as advertised on their website. Pivoted to a deliciously creamy pillow pasta filled with sweet cheese and covered in butter and balsamic but for some reason chives were introduced and that really took the dish in a different flavor direction. Wine list was extensive. Sommelier helped us out even though our wine was less than $100. Added a glass of their house Cabernet Sauvignon which is a special collaboration. Pretty good. Very pricy. Sediment in the glass was off putting but the sommelier made it right. Up and down experience. Given all the restaurants in Columbus, probably wouldn’t go back.

    Food and service was great- as I have come to expect from a CM restaurant. I do feel it was a bit pricey for the food however. I would recommend the experience once but not there are other places with great Italian at a better value.

    Like most every CM restaurant, service was impeccable, atmosphere was top notch, but food was average and a bit over-priced. Regardless, I’ll be back. I just love observing the well choreographed staff as they flawlessly move about the restaurant. As a patron, it relaxing to know that food and beverage will be delivered fresh and timely.

    Way too expensive for the small portions. The server was knowledgeable but not too attentive. I got my glass of wine after I finished my meal and forgot to bring our extra bread . The busboy poorer water in my husbands scotch glass thinking it was water, etc. I’d rather go to Lindeys- not as expensive and better food IMO.

    Honestly this was one of the best dining experiences my bestie and I have had in a very long time and definitely the best in Columbus! When you’re spending this kind of money you expect it all to be amazing, and I can say not one thing fell short.
