   Tatiana was an excellent server. She answered all questions. Food was superb. We had dined at the Ybor City location and this one equaled it. I wish there was a location near our home.

   My parents recently moved to Celebration and we’ve been coming down to visit from VA this past year and have been to Columbia restaurant a few times now. Great food, drinks and atmosphere! I had the Palomillo entree which was delicious and we ordered the pitcher of Mojito!👍🏽 we had the Gambas Al ajillo to start. My brother had the Salmon Aurora and my wife had the salad. If you’re looking for a great place for a dinner date, friends get together or special occasion this is a great spot!

   Note: there is no valet and we ended up parking 4 blocks away. It was very busy when we went, and we weren’t seated until a half hour past our reservation—a pet peeve of mine. Service was friendly but rushed. Inside was loud but the seating on the patio was very nice. Overall our dinners were good.

   Grrreat!!! Jose is an outstanding waiter. Very knowledgeable, helpful and patient. Dinner was great food The bar is also a great stop. The bartenders are great at their profession. When in Florida, make an effort to dine at any of the Columbia restaurants

   I grew up eating at the Columbia, Ybor City as it was my parents favourite restaurant. As an adult my husband and I have enjoyed eating at every location in Florida including the Celebration Columbia. Saturday we took our son and daughter-in-law for lunch on her birthday . My husband and I had the salad and Spanish bean soup (which has always been our favourite) and the soup had absolutely no flavour. Also, the sausage was so tough it was not edible. The salads had about 1/2” of dressing in the bottom of the plate and completely overwhelmed the salad. Our son had the chicken and rice and said it was dry and very bland. Our daughter in laws scallops were good but she had ordered a side salad with dressing on the side that she never got. The waiter did remove the side salad from the bill. Overall it was a very disappointing meal and not at all what we have come to expect from the Columbia.

    Everything was GREAT except to the chairs. They were extremely uncomfortable and with the vinyl covering very slippery. I had to keep repositioning myself in the chair.

    We’ve been going to the Columbia restaurant for years in different cities. Sadly it has become inconsistent. My dinner arrived cold. The prices are high. Didn’t feel we got our moneys worth at all. Same thing happened a year ago and we blamed Covid. But it hasn’t gotten better. Probably won’t be back.

    We had a very nice dinner at a corner table. We had soup, 1905 salad and shared PAELLA A LA VALENCIANA accompanied with Sangria. We ended with a key lime pie for dessert. The service was excellent and the meal was outstanding.

    This is my second time visiting Columbia. It is "A MUST" destination for my colleagues and I when we travel to Florida, especially the Orlando area. We absolutely love the Paella! Great service too. Appreciate the rich history of the business and the generations of a family run establishment!

    We go to Columbia restaurant in Sarasota all the time. This location although very centric and nice ambiance did not live up to the Columbia reputation. Other than the salad, the shrimp tapas was just OK. Roast Pork was not very tasty and rice and beans bland. Mediocre at best. Service was OK for a busy Friday night.

    Columbia is mostly reliable in food and service. Reception could use a little more personal recognition, eye to eye contact when talking with you, and some warmth in their demeanor. We have dined at the Celebration location, and others, loads of times over the years. Do they not know that? Or care? Once past reception, all else falls into place and becomes one of our fav places to dine. Go and experience it for yourself and you will see what I mean. PS--Chris, our server, exceeded expectations and was very accommodating in celebrating my wife's birthday. Bravo to Chris.

    Frustrating .... Over Reserved, not enough Wait Staff and Thanksgiving Dinner was Fair at the most !! Bar was out of Wine selection, never let us know, never refilled water glasses or offered Desert ? Waited to receive check too long and then had to ask for it to be taken twice ?? Have always Loved this restaurant for the Holidays but Thanksgiving Day was a "Total Disaster" ......

    We went for dinner on Thanksgiving. We had a reservation for 2 and last minute we had 4. We called and they were able to update the reservation. We had the Thanksgiving menu and everything was great. It’s so beautiful in the restaurant and the service was good too.

    This was our second visit and it was Thanksgiving. We weren’t sure what to expect but the staff handled the many diners so well. Service did not suffer, and the food was amazing as always. I can’t wait to go back and try something new, so many amazing dishes on the menu, and the mojitos are perfection.

    The Columbia is always amazing and has become one of my standard stops every time I’m in the area. I made a point to order things I don’t typically get and was not disappointed in the least! Would love to have everything on the menu at least once, but there’s too many good things and not enough time. (Not a bad problem to have, right?)
