" A hidden gem in Columbus! The Refectory seems to have perfected the art of fine dining. The service was impeccable, and the waiter was knowledgeable about the menu. The atmosphere is sophisticated yet warm, perfect for a romantic dinner. However, I did feel that my portions were quite small. That aside, every bite was delicious and the flavors stood out. I would come back without hesitation but would likely need to order a few more items next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at The Refectory is like being transported to Paris! I attended a special event here and was thoroughly impressed with the extensive menu and wine selection. The escargot was particularly amazing and a must-try for any foodie. The atmosphere radiated sophistication and elegance. On a minor note, while the food was sublime, I wished the portion sizes were a bit larger, especially for the price point. Truly a memorable gastronomic experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting The Refectory was such a highlight of our week! My partner and I were drawn in by the ambiance from the moment we walked in. The staff made us feel extremely welcome and well taken care of. I indulged in the five courses, and it was heavenly! The only note of critique I have is that the portion sizes felt a tad small for the experience, but I suppose that’s part of the fine dining concept. Would recommend this place without a doubt! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner at The Refectory last night, and wow, it blew me away! The flavors in each dish were remarkable—the lamb especially stood out. The ambiance was upscale and provided a lovely setting for dinner. However, I wish the portions were a bit larger; I left feeling not entirely full. Overall, the service was prompt and attentive, and I'd be happy to return! " (*Curated Review*)
