We’ve been going to Lindys many years now. But this is the first time our experience was less than satisfactory. The restaurant itself was the same charming and cozy spot. But the service was lacking and the food was not very good. We both ordered Eggs Benedict. They arrived at our table cold so we’re sent back. Second time around not much better and the ham on top was shaved….not very good. Also, not most important but they didn’t offer any fresh squeezed juice which we were surprised at the caliber of restaurant Lindy’s is supposed to be. What a shame really. We won’t be going back!

Was at Lindey's for Sunday brunch with friends visiting from out of town. The setting was quaint and reminiscent of earlier times. There was a good variety in the menu and we all found something we liked. The food was well-prepared and well-served. The food came out at the proper temperature, in the proper sequence and was coordinated (our main courses were served at the same time). The wait staff presented the dishes and cleared the table properly. The service was attentive and yet not intrusive. All in all a very enjoyable experience.

We are not from the area and Lindey’s came highly recommend so we made reservations and I’m so glad we did. The food was cooked to perfection and we received red carpet service from the moment we drove up to the time we left. Was very impressed with the cleanliness and attention to details which just added to the positive experience my wife and I enjoyed. We will definitely be back and recommend Lindey’s.

Service would be 4-5 stars but, I ask for a replacement drink, the one I ordered I did not like and I did not drink. I was charged anyway and no mention that I would be. A Cameron Mitchell restaurant would not have charged me. Otherwise Lindey's is a very good restaurant.

It was fine. My fiend and I were seated at a two-top at the top of the stairs, where I imagine, they have a very hard time getting people to sit at w/o asking for a different table. The server was great, very knowledgeable. We both had soup and salad and the price was insane, for lunch. I had never been, and unless someone is dying to go, I’ll probably not worry about going back.

Decided to go to Lindey’s for our Wedding Anniversary dinner. Had not been there for quite a while but were very glad with our choice. The food was fantastic and loved their house specialty Bourbon cocktails. Our waiter, Jimmie, was outstanding and definitely made sure we had a great dinning experience. Will certainly be returning soon.

Out of town guest was looking for a uniquely Columbus restaurant and we immediately landed on Lindsey’s. Food was excellent including yellow (the real, true color) key lime pie. Food was amazing and service was equally impressive. Highly recommend eating there.
