Excellent tapas restaurant! Bar fits right in with Columbus' growing craft cocktail culture. Bartenders had great recommendations. IThe menu is great - we were there for a birthday party - perfect for a tapas place. We had crispy potatoes, all the mushroom dishes, wagyu sliders, lamb meatballs, and I had the seared tuna steak on another visit. All were tasty but the wagyu sliders get special mention. I always thought that would be a waste, but they were melt-in-your mouth tender-juicy, beefy, and rich. Our server, Dani, was friendly, fast, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. All her recommendations were spot-on!

Great place for a nice dinner with a large party! I liked the ambiance and location, friendly customer service, and literally every single small plate that was served. Lobster tacos and meatballs were amazing!

I love everything that we got. Special call out to the Wagyu Skirt Steak and the Peach Perfect Buttercake. We got our steak medium rare. It cooked perfectly and pair well with that housemade chimichurri. I would have to have a moment with the Peach Perfect Buttercake. That buttercake is buttery and super moist. Topped with that peach compote and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. My favorite dessert of all time.

Came here a few months ago and was absolutely impressed! Happy hour deal was great: Hummus with naan was delicious, potatoes were yummy and spicy, and pork belly hit the spot! Service was Kylie was great we felt compelled to speak with their GM Bree to share the good news. This place can be pretty casual but I didn't feel out of place in my suit as I had just come from work. We were lucky to find parking meter right out front, but it did seem like parking might be tough during certain hours. Will definitely come back next time I'm in town!

During restaurant week we decided to check out a new restaurant. Located in the Short North we decided on Fireproof. We started with a couple drinks, well made the butterfly pea lemonade was delicious and pretty. We then moved onto appetizers and ordered flaming cheese, shrimp cocktail and a salad. The cheese was delicious, shrimp were very large and the salad portion was generous. Dinners came and we had chorizo meatballs, strip steak and baked salmon. The strip steak was the star, it was cooked perfectly and was delicious. Now on to dessert, everything was great but the tiramisu cheesecake or the lemon tart was probably our favorite. We had wonderful service and would absolutely come back again!

Updated menu alert! Went there on a Friday night. I was warmly and professionally received by the staff! Bartenders were excellent and reminded me that their menu had been recently updated as well as their drink menu! I highly recommend this place! This is a great restaurant for a date night or to catch up with friends!
