Benner Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Looking for good restaurant recommendations for tonight. Taking my girl out and want something good. Looking to spend between$60 to $80 for the two of us. No alcohol so that'll help with prices. And no chain restaurants.

SpaceGhost Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Do not go to Bel-lago in Westerville, unless you want to spend $60-80 without booze and get super small portions, and smell Hoover reservoir while you eat shitty food. I get you just want to blow money on food and look like a baller, so on a side note: I was laughing they have a NY sirloin 20oz steak on the menu for $59.95 there. Fuck, the Wife and I were able to buy a 7 POUND PRIME RIB roast from Carfagna's for $78. It fed 11 people on Father's Day. Prime Rib>Sirloin any fucking day of the week.

BigOxley Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Lindey's in German Village. Probably keep it under $80 if you don't get a cut of meat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoe Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Texas De Brazil is an awesome dining experience, over at Easton. There's another Brazilian restaurant across from the arena downtown, I forget the name though. Downtown was actually better food and less expensive. Both are going to get you stuffed with food and put you in a meat coma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstmg8 Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Boathouse is decent, far from best food in cbus, but the atmosphere is great. Sit outside on the river with a great downtown view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miller Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Fish Market. Ocean Club. Ella. Boathouse. Cap city, Texas de Braxil, J Lui. Those are all spots I would consider. My top pick for you is wine guy in gahanna/creek side. Always had a great meal and atmosphere there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Karacho1647545492 Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 The Pearl is fucking awesome. I normally don't do seafood inland (unless I'm at Ocean Club which is outrageously expensive), but The Pearl has top-notch oysters on the half shell as well as other things for the non-seafood palate. I'm not a huge fan of the Chesapeake, but if they have them the Spinney Creek are super delicious. You really can't go wrong with anything on their menu, and if you can snag the bar-style seats right by the kitchen you'll get a cool dining experience. It's located where Burgundy Room used to be, right next to Lemongrass on High St at the south end of the Short North. There's a parking lot at Buttles I like to use.

Second Gen Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Rodizios - Brazilian steak house (Down town on Marconi).. Good food and right about the top of your budget (W/O drinks). Added benefit is meat sweats about an hour after (If you decide to gorge yourself). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xlr8tn Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Texas De Brazil is an awesome dining experience, over at Easton. There's another Brazilian restaurant across from the arena downtown, I forget the name though. Downtown was actually better food and less expensive. Both are going to get you stuffed with food and put you in a meat coma. me and the wife just went there last weekend for the first time. It wasn't bad. I had a few problems with it but I left full so mission accomplished. It's overpriced and I found one of the meats I liked but could never find the guy that had that skewer it seemed like and by the time he showed back up I was full of lamb chops. Other than that it was unique and good. Of course after we went someone told us about the place downtown and that it was better and not as expensive.

SpaceGhost Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 94th aero squadron great food great scenes ESP at night Wife and I go there all the time, we split the big Prime Rib dinner(Commander Cut) Place is cool, but I'm guessing the younger people do not like it. It's also not expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime rib there is great and you can't touch the house parmigiana dressing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benner Posted August 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 So we went to The Boathouse. Food and view were awesome. We both got they're special of the week. Three course meal. My main course was the 12 ounce ribeye, Kelly got a lamb shank which must have been 2lbs. $56 plus a $15 tip. Not bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
