This bustling riverfront town offers good old-fashioned Southern hospitality, old-world charm and a treasure trove of discoveries for Civil War buffs. To really get the feel of another era, stroll through the National Historic District, a 28-block stretch of restored Victorian homes, gardens and gazebos, and tour the house museums in Heritage Corner.

Olive Garden

Reviewed By Volman65

I have been dining at the Columbus Olive Garden for over a decade (primarily for lunch) and the food is consistently good to very good, the service is almost always terrific and the lunch and early dinner specials are a great value. This past week my wife and I dined there for dinner and we were both very pleased with our meal and service. The Salmon Picatta was excellent. The stuffed mushroom appetizer was not as good as usual but overall, our dining experience was very good.

Got our drinks and the waitress disappeared. Got the food she had the Mac and cheese burger nothing to write home about... I got the Chicken and waffles it was nice.. The chicken was no big thing... Not great service.. No big draw on the food. Been here and done that not again.

My wife and I , along with my mom were here for nephews military graduation. After trying red lobster, which seemed overwhelmed and dirty, with a 30 minute wait, We were pleasantly surprised to find Carrabbas a short distance away.Our server, Christy, was great and recommended the grilled Tilipia w/ basalmic glaze vs. the special of potato encrusted cod. All meals outstanding including super hot fresh bread, cold crunchy fresh salads, highly recommend

Trevioli Italian Kitchen

Reviewed By THE-TW0-BEES

With the exception of having a terrible waitress, the food was delicious. Our waitress forgot about us over and over ... Including bringing us a pen to hurry up and sign for our bill. She remembered we had already paid when we told her we just gave her $120 CASH! Otherwise, it was good to see the food is still great and the new location is so much better!! Hopefully we'll have a seasoned waitress the next go-round.

Looking for a pizza joint that would seat our huge group of 20, we found Johnny’s and glad we did. The food was excellent - pizzas, lasagna, pasta and salads were all very nice. Our waitress, Ashley, took excellent care of our large group handling with ease and humor. The prices were good as well - you can even order pizza by the slice for the kids. Highly recommend the Johnny’s Deluxe pizza.AWESOME to hear John - THANKS! We sincerely appreciate your recommendation and patronage. Please bring back the crew anytime! See you soon and thanks again - Andy, Johnny's Customer Service [email protected]

This was my first visit. The pasta was really great, I had it with shrimps and lobster. The portion was huge, would be good as a sharing dish. Service was really good.

My family loves pizza! Whenever we hear about a good pizza place we must try it out. We ordered a pepperoni and a pepperoni & mushroom. Great sauce! We ordered garlic knots as an appetizer and they were delicious! My daughter wanted spaghetti, but they had sold out. Highly recommend this place!

Mabella's Italian Steakhouse

Reviewed By Kim T

Had a party of nine. Brittany was our server and she was excellent. Knew her stuff and was spot on with everything. We started off with appetizers. Had the prosciutto/date appetizer along with bruschetta. Yumm.... Lamb was devine. You have to try the shaved brussel sprouts with dates. Outstanding!! Scottish salmon was fab too. Dessert of Panna Cotta with BlackBerry sauce was silky smooth. Cheesecake was mile high and excellent with fresh strawberries. Will definitely be back.
