Strongwater Food And Spirits - Columbus

Things here are a cross between nostalgia and edgy. I found the staff friendly, and the waiter was clearly knowledgeable of the entire menu. The old EBCO factory/warehouse it occupies adds an interesting vibe.I sensed they want to market to a younger crowd. I 'm 50, and I 'm sure I was the oldest person in the place the entire time I was there. That said, I 'll take my parents and in-laws there sometime soon. The food was fantastic. They have a 'jackfruit taco ' that is incredible. I also enjoyed their take on gazpacho. It seems like everything on the menu finds a comfortable place between traditional and hipster that should work with a fairly wide audience.

My Daughter's wedding was held here on Saturday. Everything was wonderful. We had the entire back venue, and were so worried about rain. No rain, and the outside ceremony was beautiful. the move to the bar flawless, and then to the reception again flawless. The bartenders were great and staff was very attentive, since I had to have them unlock the Bride's dressing room at least 3 times. Would recommend to anyone for a wedding. Use 400 E Rich St if you have an old GPS system

Everything was awesome. Chef Catie was managing the dining room and took the time to make us feel so welcomed. You could tell the passion behind the menu, and we loved every dish we had. We will definitely be back!

Strongwater is excellent!! Last night we visited with our friends for dinner. We tried the ricotta and bread—incredible! How can bread and cheese be so tasty! Three of us had the hot chicken sandwich (2 veggie and 1 chicken) all were excellent! Great spice level, tasty sauce, and hot! Catie is an excellent chef and GM! She ensures all the food is exciting and tasty! Our waitress, Lily, was awesome too! Thanks for a great dinner!!

We held a welcome event for our our of town guests at Strongwater the night before our wedding. This was a pretty low key event we just had drinks and dessert. Since Strongwater’s dessert options are limited, we were able to bring in goodies. We were able to drop these off earlier in the day, which was super helpful. Matt was our contact point and he provided great communication and kept the event running smoothly the entire night. We offered a host bar with a limit, and were worried we would hit the limit early in our event. Drinks are reasonably priced and delicious, and the host bar lasted the entire evening! We were in the Annex, and the space itself was great, with both indoor and outdoor seating options and high top tables. We received so many compliments on Strongwater and highly recommend!
