Close walking distance to Ohio Theater with nice view overlooking Christmas lights in Columbus Commons. Met up with a friend for dinner before seeing Jon Stewart. Service was fast, food was hot and tasted great, atmosphere was friendly and lively without being too loud to hold a conversation. Great place to grab food if you're downtown for an event.

This is my second time coming for Happy Hour, and again, lived up to my expectations!!! The service is amazing and the food took a lot shorter than expected, especially since we ordered two pizzas and salads, along with our drinks. The pizzas were phenomenal and I cannot recommend them both, the truffle and seasonal butternut squash, enough! The restaurant itself is very pretty on the inside and the lighting is light just enough, without being too bright. The manager is also very lovely and you can tell they really care about the restaurant and customers. Will definitely be coming back!!

Food was amazing as always, and the happy hour deals are the best! The server was kind and the kitchen staff were very careful and conscious of food allergies in our party. We’ll be back!

This was our first time dining at Martini's since their remodeling and revamping of their menu. The quality of the food remains excellent, and they retained several of the earlier menu items and tweaked several others. The wines available by the glass are excellent. This is a special occasion restaurant, well worth a visit. The changes in the decor are relatively subtle. The energy level is fairly high, reflecting the apparent enjoyment of the patrons. Service is attentive without being intrusive.

A great place to relax with a nice bottle of wine (or beer or cocktail) with friends (or date or spouse) along with exceptional food. We split the cheese plate and follow with entrée salads. The popcorn is a fun appetizer. Our server, Blagoi, is always attentive and we appreciate his wine recommendations.
