   The food was excellent. We had the Short Rib, Tuna with sweet potato wonton and Wild Boar schnitzel We all tasted them all and it was very well prepared with great flavors. Try the WASP cocktail. Excellent spicy from the jalapeno. Waiter was attentive and engaging. Pricey but worth it.

   Food and service were great as usual. Music sound level was a bit too much this time.

   Food was good, service was excellent. Nice atmosphere to have dinner with a friend. I recommend the lamb chops & the brussel sprouts.

   I had more expectations from food market after reading all the reviews. However, the food tasted stale, the ambiance was ok. Service was good. But I feel like if the food tasted better I would have given a higher rating

   Great vibe tucked hidden away in an office building right next to Columbia Mall. Everything was perfect

   Entire experience was a bit mediocre. While some of the food was good, some was made incorrectly or missing items. Our table of 4 seemed like an afterthought for our server, she disappeared for long periods of time. This was our first time at the Columbia location, a much different experience here than at the Hampden location.

   We started off with a couple drinks, bohemian raspberry and w.a.s.p. (whiskey and spicy pepper), and the mozzarella sticks. Followed it up with the shrimp dinner and duck lo mein. Finished the night with the Heath Bar bread pudding. ALL very amazing.

    We’ve dined here often. Seems like lately the management has forgotten how to train their dining servers. Slow to be greeted, slow to get water then slow for drinks had to remind him “Oh yeah…lemme go get ‘em…” Slow for the food (was not hot when it arrived) then foreverrrrr to get the bill. Last two times there, different dining server, same inattentive service. Front desk greeters are great and then it goes downhill from there. Please hire more staff or something. Food is delicious. So that’s a plus.
