    Maybe my favorite restaurant in the Columbus area. Wonderful experience every time I dine here. Certainly not your run of the mill downtown chain restaurant. Great neighborhoood restaurant with amazing food and top-notch service. Menu has everything from sandwiches, to pasta, to phenomenal seafood and steaks. Great wine selection, really nice hand crafted cocktails. Always has a great bar crowd, or you can choose a more intimate cozy booth. I'd call this place a hidden gem, but it's always busy, so the word is clearly out.

    Sundried Tomato Margherita flatbread, and Prime Rib Sandwich were both great menu choices. The service, meal prep and atmosphere all made for a great choice for lunch. We were not in a hurry but the meal order came out from the kitchen very quickly and efficiently. We were meeting with old friends and the atmosphere at Tucci's was very conducive to an enjoyable conversation.

    Lunch at Valentina's was a delightful experience! The service was exceptional, with our server Mia being knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient. Manager Daniel went above and beyond, offering a warm welcome and securing us a lovely table by the window. The food was equally impressive – the chicken parm was a crowd-pleaser, and the swordfish was cooked to perfection. The staff was also accommodating to our special requests, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. Overall, a wonderful lunch at Valentina's!
