Didn't realize we could order sushi till we heard another server telling their table. The salad was very good. Tacos were ok. Service was good but recommended way to many alcohol drinks. Server didn't know what the soup of the day was. A little more Prepared would be be helpful. Overall it was ok

SVG never disappoints. Food is creative, service friendly and accurate, and nice non-alcohol drinks. I have been there many times since its opening. If there were any missteps during that time, I don't recollect any.

They made some changes to their menu. Which is good. There is something for everyone. Service is always good. The servers seem to enjoy each other, but, also work to make their patrons happy. The Happy Hour is a bargain. Enjoy!

The food and service were great. The server paid attention without hovering and the food came out hot and delish. It was a birthday dinner, so they had a nice card waiting on the table. Excellent experience!

SVG used to be one of our favorites in Columbus, but tonight’s experience wasn’t reflective of that. The calamari used to be our favorite in town as well, but it seems like they changed the batter and then we barely got sauce. The service was not attentive - when staff did come over they were very pleasant, but it just felt like a very off night and left pretty disappointed.
