Julian's Bar & Grill

"If you like burgers at all, this place is an essential stop. They do a really good job with the atmosphere and vibe, being a small, somewhat dimly lit dining area. But it's not dingy, it's cozy and comfortable. And the burgers are incredible. They're huge and have got all the toppings. Most of the burgers have bacon on them, then they have options: pulled pork (along with the burger), caramelized onions, avacados, fries (again, on the burger), all sorts of cheeses, etc. I've only been there once so far, and it's definitely in contention for my favorite restaurant of all time."

"I feel so bad even leaving this review, and I want to preface this by saying that it is not the fault of the waitstaff. There seemed to be a shortage of kitchen staff. We wanted to try a new restaurant in the area and took my parents out for their 40th anniversary. We had a reservation for 6:00 pm and we were seated promptly. We had a group of 5 that ordered a few appetizers, two burgers with fries, and 2 entrees. It took about 45 minutes for appetizers (deep fried basic food including wings and onion rings) to come out to the table. After being seated at 6 we waited until about 7:40 for entrees to come out. It came out plate by plate, but had to ask for silverware and waited about 25 minutes to see the waitress/the bartender to get it. By the time we got to eat the food, some was cold, but the food that had just come out was hot. Overall, the food tasted fine - nothing spectacular, but certainly not bad. Some parts of the order were a little wrong, no big deal. The waitress apologized multiple times, and on a $135 bill, they did discount it by $22, but truly, it should have been comped to a greater degree. Multiple patrons walked out because it took so long. We were one of 2 or 3 tables that stayed, although, I wish we had not to be honest. It takes the cake as the worst dining experience I have had thus far in my life, but I am glad we were surrounded by the company of family, and I am glad that the staff was kind."

"My husband and I were married this past May and we made the decision to have Julian's cater for us. We both agree that this was one of the best decisions we could have made! The food was absolutely exceptional. I can say with 100% certainty that it was the best food I'd ever had at any wedding I've ever attended. We also heard a never-ending stream of compliments from our guests. Chef DJ was incredibly accommodating to our tastes and price range and was so easy to work with. We cannot recommend them enough! Thank you for making our special day even better! :D"

"As an out of town guest this was a gem to find! We loved the artsy atmosphere and the menu was a great mix of burgers and healthy options. The grilled chicken over spaghetti squash was delicious!!!"

"Really good upscale bar healthy not covered in grease good food. Veggie burger croissant was very messy but good. Asparagus as a side??? Who does that way better than greasy fries. And less than 10 bucks... Not in Columbus Ohio.. that Sammy and Side would be 20 plus bucks."
