    Another wonderful evening at The Columbia. They were extremely accommodating when it was impossible for us to find a place to park (perhaps don't go to Celebration at all on holiday evenings). They held our reservation and sat us promptly as soon as we arrived although I must say several disgraceful entitled newcomers were hassling the staff about wait times. They kept their cool much better than I would have. Service was excellent, food was delicious, drinks were well-made. We always leave asking "why don't we come here more often" and we will. We love The Columbia and we loved this Christmas meal.

    Our family of 8 had Christmas Eve dinner and it was spectacular! Our server Andy was the best at taking over and ordering for us. We did have the pan of paella with lobster and mushrooms. Lobster was a little over cooked. Please make sure you let them know. We had so many light tapas before Paella. Wine was also paired beautifully. Thanks Andy!

    On the corner of Main Street on Celebration you could be concerned that this is another “tourist trap”… asking top dollar for mediocre food. This was NOT the case! Everything we had was amazing in terms of both quality, taste and potion size. Will definitely be returning and would certainly recommend to anyone who is looking for authentic Italian style food. We also had two young kids with us (4 and 6), kids menu was again excellent and the venue was very accommodating towards kids that age.

    The food is excellent. I frequently can't decide whether I prefer the Fish & Chips (which is not greasy, but fresh and tasty), the Shepherd's Pie (which is very tasty and isn't overwhelmed by a large amount of crust), or the Fish Chowder (rich and creamy). My wife has the same problem with the Raglan Risotto (which she exclaims over every time she has it), the Shepherd's Pie or the Cider Salmon. And the chocolate lava cake for dessert is simply outstanding.
