My favorites.

I've lived in Columbus since 2005. I know that is not very long in the grand continuum of life, but I feel it is long enough to have had sampled many restaurants in the 614.

My plan for this blog is to highlight restaurants by location: German Village, Downtown, Short North, Victorian Village, Grandview, Campus, Clintonville, Worthington, Easton, Polaris, and beyond. Each month, I will focus on a specific area of the city, and will post my likes/dislikes/hopefully some pictures on specific restaurants during the weeks.

That being said, I have a collection of restaurants that I consider to be my favorite places in Columbus. I mean, what is a foodie without a favorite list of places?

My top 10 (not in any particular order, just any place that when someone asks, "Where would you like to go to dinner?" I would definitely say "yes!"):

1. Lindey's, German Village

2. The North Star Cafe, Short North

3. Japanese Oriental Restaurant, Campus

4. Udipi Cafe, Worthington/North Columbus

5. Lavash, Clintonville

6. Cap City Diner, Grandview/Victorian Village

7. The Happy Greek, Short North

8. Cafe Istanbul, Easton

9. Tai's Asian Bistro, Campus/Upper Arlington

10. The Tip Top, Downtown
