Restaurants near Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Exit I-71 Ohio State Fair - Expo Center

Lunch in downtown Columbus is back and special! We started with the Dirty Tots - crispy, spicy on the outside, creamy on the inside with a pop of caviar with dill garnish. Fantastic. The Lobster Roll is warm, filled with plump claw meat in a buttery roll with clarified butter for dipping and crispy shoestring fries. The Roasted Chicken was beyond any roast chicken with stuffing in the chicken breast, savory glaze on perfectly crisped skin. Even the iced tea was special - the current house made creation is a Blood Orange Iced Tea. A second glass arrived just as I was finishing the first. Service is friendly and gracious, there is valet at the lunch hour, and the interior of the restaurant is a lovely mix of formal and floral. A great business or celebratory lunch spot - much needed downtown.

Kim K was our server and she was outstanding. She was very informative over the whole menu and helped us decide our culinary journey! She wasn’t wrong when she said there isn’t a bad thing on the menu. From the wine and beer to the skirt steak and risotto. We will definitely be back and will be asking for Kim K as long as she is available!

Great happy hour location! Many more food and drink choices than most restaurants on their happy hour menu. Food and service were great!

I love coming here. I have celiac disease so it’s always a little hard going out to eat, but Lindey’s is always so fantastic. I have never had a reaction after eating here. Our waitress tonight was extra amazing and helpful. This is our go to spot for special occasions and visiting family/friends. Never change Lindey’s!! P.S. if you ever start to make gluten free bread and pastries in your bakery you will have customers in this area!!!! I will be your #1 customer!!!

Food and service were excellent. Staff was patient with us as we had a leisurely dinner with friends who we don’t see very often.
