    Overall, we had a great experience at brunch. The burger, Bloody Mary, service and scenery were all fantastic. Unfortunately, the biscuit tower was a letdown, especially at $40. It just didn’t live up to the rest of the meal. That said, everything else more than made up for it, and we’ll definitely be back.

    There’s a reason why cm restaurants are the way they are. They’re all trained to be the same and I really noticed after going to the brass eye that I’ll continue to go to CM instead. The service at the brass eye was awful, sally was great, but that’s about it and the server didn’t get one of the orders, and she kept saying it’s coming it’s coming, rather than saying im sorry I missed your order, It’ll be right out but taking the blame rather than everyone got food expect one person and good thing we didn’t wait on his meal or we would have waited for 15 minutes. I’d definitely go back for the food, take out but definitely not sitting in

    Strolled over to this beautiful restaurant from our downtown apartment. Just lovely ambience on a warm Spring evening. We enjoyed mussels and gnocchi with prosciutto while sipping cool, promptly- delivered cocktails. We’ve enjoyed dinner at Little West and coffee at Maudines, but this spot is perfect for a special evening with friends or a special someone. Matthew the manager came by a couple of times to check on us and Elle the server was sweet and efficient.

    I was blown away. At first, I was hesitant, as this is located in a new and upcoming area for Columbus. Wow, have I been missing out? This is THE PLACE for the newcomers to Columbus. This establishment is exactly what Columbus needed. Food and drinks were above my expectations. The server was real and attentive. Can't wait to bring my friends and out-of-towners to The Junto and the Brass Eye.

    Fantastic place to come for some drinks and a little bite to eat. Fantastic view of Columbus. It was cold outside, but the patio was warmer than the indoor section. Would definitely come again.

    The service was extremely slow. We were also sat at a very low table which made eating awkward.

    Server basically ignored us, otherwise amazing! Been many times and have never had an issue with service, so was likely an outlier.
