Excellent octopus and cocktails, elixir!
Loved the artic char dish, excellent and I’ve paired with key lime pie 👌🏻
Really nice - loved that we hit the Sunday HH 1/2 off oysters!
We’ll be back
I went to The Pearl for the first time, during happy hour. I’m from Florida so I love seafood, but in Ohio I’ve found that’s hard to come by. I saw the happy hour prices and I went to try out the oysters. This is by far the best seafood place I’ve tried in Ohio, and I can’t wait to come back. Our waiter suggested a more briney and salty oyster, and so I took his suggestion. I was super impressed and in awe by the presentation of our dish. I’ll definitely be coming back.
The food was delicious. I love the cornbread and the grilled cheese. The tots are amazing also. Love this place and the ambience.
Great food, atmosphere and server. The Pearl never lets me down.
Overall good experience. Brunch portions were a little small. Also would not recommend Eggs and Bacon in a jar, was very disappointing.
Friend leaving town and first time trying The Pearl’s brunch.
Prices too xpensive, most prices are not listed on your menú, thats not cool
Great food and service! Awesome gluten free options too.
The Pearl is our favorite dining spot. Never a bad meal and always pleasant service! Happy hour is a great time to go!
Our server had great recommendations.
This place is your typical Short North place. The food was delicious and the crowd noise was expected after the long closures. The only rub I have is for the service, which is delayed and they seem annoyed if you have any questions about the menu, and for the serving size of the dinners the prices were astronomical. I had the hanger steak and an old fashioned, she had shrimp and grits and a Moscow mule. Total price before tip was $110, take off the drinks and it’s still around $90. Not to terrible EXCEPT I was still hungry and so was she and not the “oh that was so good I want more” hungry.
Again, I will say the food was delicious and the place semi-unique but nothing stood out against the typical short north and made me think man I want to go back there and with the price for quantity of the food, I probably won’t go back.
We were not impressed with the quality of the food. The service was fine. Not worth the cost.
Everything was very nice. Our waiter was excellent and the service was great. The food came quickly and was very tasty. I will definitely return.
Had a lovely dinner and drinks at the Pearl. Highly recommend the devils on horseback appetizer.
Great food, great service and a must if you're in the Columbus area!
Great food great conversation and excellent service!!
Legit one of my favorite places to go for any occasion. They also have a happy hour that is insane. Best seafood in Columbus.
I was delighted to see reasonable precautions (ie. Seamless check-in, transparent dividers, QR code menu, staff enforcing mask requirements) put in place to keep guests safe. My server, Andrew was very cordial and attentive. I was pleased by the quality of the seafood options (clams, mussels, oysters, crab)—and that I could hear my date speak. I’ll definitely be back.
Cocktails and food was fantastic. The smoked salmon app was so good. The service was great! No complaints. We will be back soon!!!
We had a great experience at the Pearl. We really enjoyed our cocktails and the food was amazing. We highly recommend the deviled eggs, jalapeno cornbread, and tator tots. The service was fast, even though it was busy because of Valentines day. We highly recommend and will be back!
The food was amazing and our server was really nice!
A valentines day home run. Great food, good service and good drinks. The Duke cocktail came with little army men in the drink, and the hanger steak was fantastic.
Brought my daughter here for Valentine’s dinner because she loves oysters. They were a hit! 🥰 The food is always delicious exactly as the chef recommends. I love the combinations of flavors that they come up with here! The ambiance is quite lovely. 🍓 Don’t forget desert, the Chocolate Covered Strawberry Pie was the perfect finish!
Wonderful place with great food and great service!
Really enjoyed myself and the food was to die for!
To start off with the environment was great. Everyone in the restaurant was socially distanced. It was restaurant week so it was a small menu, but we were both happy with our choices. The food was great, the service was good. I'll go again soon.
The absolute best dining out experience we have had
I was able to enjoy celebrating my 26th birthday with sweet heart. Everything was amazing and our server was the best. Also great team work from the staff, everyone was super friendly
Great time as always, food was on point and those pies....yum!!!
great place to meet with friends. Nicely spaced out.
I don't know why it took us so long to get here. We ended up snagging a 4:30 reservation since it was Restaurant Week. Turns out it was still Happy Hour! Total win!
Everything we tried, from the baked oysters to the clam chowder to the Low Country Shrimp Boil was amazing. We will be back soon.
Ate here 2x in 4 days.... Great food and service and really our favorit place in CBus
Love the energy and the service at The Pearl, in addition to the food!
Went for RW had the boiled shrimp it was just ok. Clam chowder was very good. Ordered the apple pie, but they were out.
Outstanding in every way.
Always a great experience at The Pearl. Food and service is always great. This time we brought our 10 month old baby and they did everything to accommodate us.
Food was incredible, my fiancée and I came here for her Birthday and we had a fantastic time. Drinks had great taste and we are already planning the next time we'll come back!
My wife and I love going to this place for weekend brunch.
Amazing experience. Food was amazing and staff was superb.
I was very disappointed in the crowd of people waiting to be seated in the front lobby area. After all, we are dealing with covid and a pandemic. I saw Cameron Mitchell on CNN and saw him talk about reopening and having guests wear a mask till seated to protect the staff. But what about the guests? I was mortified to see so may people on a cold night gathered in the lobby waiting for their table. we had reservations at 815 pm and purposely arrived at about 811pm, and did not sit down till 825pm. I was nervous waiting in the lobby and even went out into the cold. Again, I was disappointed to see this while a covid crisis is taking place. way too many people close together in the lobby!
