Review Skillet - Columbus

Karlisa H.

Omg!!! My husband and I did a weekend stay and visited this place. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was warm and cozy, the music was a vibe, the employees were really friendly. They have limited hours and parking was hectic so arrive early if you have reservations. It’s family owned and you can tell by the way it’s ran. I would eat here every weekend if I could just to try something new. The only thing I would say is if you don’t eat pork ask plenty of questions to make sure it’s not in your food. Very intimate setting, restroom and kitchen was sparkling clean (you have to walk a path towards the restroom where you can get a full view of the kitchen).

Perfection! One of our favorite restaurants and experiences. What can I say? This quaint layer back eatery must be experienced. The Bart was so sweet, hospitable, and great conversationalist. We sat at the bar. We ordered drinks, a salmon omelette, shrimp and grits with corn étouffée, and we shared the grilled cinnamon bun(chef’s kiss) I can’t decide which we enjoyed most , the customer service or the food! The best brush in Columbus, hard stop !!! Each week they change things on the menu but so have staples. Get there before 11am. You will not be disappointed. They deserve 10stars, we can’t want to visit again! Support your LOCAL RESTAURANTS! Oh and yes you heard me Grilled cinnamon bun. I said what I said, best brunch!

Stopped here the morning after the Dave Matthew’s concert. Food was delicious! The inside is very small so if it’s busy expect to wait but we were lucky and got there as people were leaving. Our waiter was great and was funny. I can’t recommend the cinnamon bun enough! If you have a sweet tooth definitely give it a shot! You won’t be disappointed.

Awesome small little breakfast place. The staff is super friendly and food is authentic. The Cheese Blinz were amazing! They reminded me of my European grandma’s pancakes with cream cheese and real jam. Perfectly made; not crazy sweet, but hit the right spot. Then as well I definitely recommend getting the fried cinnamon rolls as well! Just delicious!

Not only was the food worth my taste buds but I had to buy sauces to take home to keep the flavor going. The tomato preserves was my favorite with a warm biscuit to start the day. Don't forget to try their hot sauce with the sausage oats to get that full flavor.

I have been trying to get in this place for ages! I’m happy to report that I was finally able to see what the hype was about , and on my birthday weekend!! Woot woot! The place is quaint and cozy. The food was amazing! I enjoy local spots, and Farm to table places have come to be my fave. Oh how deprived I’ve been all these years of eating quick meals! You can appreciate the fresh veggies, herbs, and fruits. My go to at many eateries is shrimp and grits, if they have it on the menu…and they did! But, the shrimp comes shelled (thank you to the server for the heads up). Although I enjoy playing with my food as much as the next person, I didn’t want to risk it. I ordered the hash instead. That hash? Oh you HASH to try it! It was maybe in the top 5 of the best I’ve had…and I’ve HASHED a lot in my day. If you are in the area, and have a couple of hours to spare, you definitely have to try this local gem. I say a couple of hours because you’ll most likely have to wait. Trust me, it’s worth it! Did I mention they change the menu daily? Never the same place twice!

I come from the country and just moved here to Columbus so it was great to find some of "grandma's cooking" just down the road the food was great atmosphere was nice though I could see it getting cramped if you have a larger group but all around great food and drinks

Look at the food, would you look at it!? Tastes even better than it looks. Staff was very friendly, and even got us a military discount when they found out we were all retired vets, without us even asking for it. Small place, plan ahead and/or expect a wait, but worth it.

Phenomenal. The best omelet I've ever eaten. I had the sweet potato, ham, and apple omelet with a side of toast with butter and a cup of green tea. Our waiter was wonderful. We did have to wait a few minutes to get seated because the inside is tiny, but it still would have been worth it if it was a 20 minute wait. We will be back.

Excellent brunch menu which continually rotates in new items. Generous portions and our favorite spot in Columbus! Waiting (and dreaming about) for the hot smoked salmon to come back

Jamie

Best gravy and biscuits I've ever had!!! Great drinks and delicious food. The dining area is incredibly small, but surprisingly cozy. Good atmosphere and service too!

Really feels like such a special place. Like it’s our little secret. Friendly staff. Creative menu. I love that there are always new items on the menu everytime we come. It makes it so exciting to see what’s new! Everything is incredibly fresh and always delicious. Yes, it’s cramped… yes… there can be a wait… but it’s worth it. Get there early and enjoy!!

One of our favorite places when we are in Columbus. Today I had the Wagu Burger with Pimento cheese. Just excellent. Perfect medium rare. Super juicy. Came with a huge pickle and great chips. I tried to eat it as a sandwich but I would have been wearing it. So out came the knife and fork.

This is an excellent breakfast spot with high-quality dishes. You can't get attached to the menu items too much because they frequently change, but you can always expect an omelet, hash, biscuits and gravy, and some sort of sweet dish to be available. The dining room is very small, so you should definitely try to book ahead or order carryout online as I always have. You can tell there's some skill in their kitchen -- I don't know if words can do it justice, but the flavor combinations and textures are near perfection from what I've had, and far above your average breakfast spot around Columbus. I do wish they had a slightly bigger menu to show off more varieties/creativity, but I understand keeping it small helps them to perfect each dish. I'll definitely keep visiting Skillet regularly and you should too.

Our server was hilarious and sweet. Food was DELICIOUS. Worth the wait. Get an Irish coffee and wait outside
