Mitchell's Steakhouse - Columbus Downtown

I called around noon to see if it was possible to get reservations for around 8pm. The gentlemen who answered the phone, Pete, was most helpful and was the very person to greet us soon as we entered the building. I have to say, this place is positively stunning. The warm earthy tones with splashes of turquoise was beautifully atmospheric. We were seated and a lovely young woman named, Rachel, was our server. This gal was not only professional, but warm and endearing. It was so nice to be in an atmosphere of luxury without the pretense. Rachel explained the entire menu to us and made wonderful suggestions. I ended up ordering the New York Au Poivre and my partner ordered the Chilean Sea Bass. The presentation on both dishes was quite simple and the portions were unbelievable- Really unbelievable. My partner had stated that the Sea Bass was some of the finest he has ever tasted. My steak was enormous and flawlessly cooked. I do like my meat Medium Well and many times chefs and broilers tend to over do it, but this steak was truly flawless. The seasoning was so prefect! Mitchell's is one of the nicest experiences we have ever had in Columbus. We will most definitely be back and recommend this wonderful gem to everyone. Thank you Rachel and all the staff at Mitchell's for giving us a night we will never forget! Pros: Everything Cons: Not one! more

My husband and I recently went to Mitchell's to celebrate our first anniversary...we ended up being very happy that we did. We both ordered steak (he got a N.Y. strip, I got the filet) and we thought it was outstanding! My husband even said it was the best steak he has ever had, and he has had a lot of them. He's a self-proclaimed connoisseur of steak, and in this case I'd definitely have to agree that Mitchell's has the best. After filling up on the great bread that they serve and the steak, we were too full to try any of the desserts. I'm sure, though, that the desserts are unbelievable. Pros: The food, service, ambience...great for special occasions Cons: The price, though it's worth it more

Well, after the Wall Street journal caught Mitchell's using the term ""Prime"" in only the dictionary sense of the word...... yes that was the lame excuse they used, I should have known better. The mushroom appetizer and the Crab Cake entree were wonderful. The first attempt at my medium rare porterhouse was mediumwell. The second try was so full of gristle that it made a great chewtoy for my dog. I won't make this mistake again. Hyde Park here I come. Pros: Ambience and usually service Cons: Shoe leather meat more

This is a once in a while, special event restaurant. Service was very good. The food is over rated. I have eaten in some great steak houses and Mitchell's is average. Price value is poor. Pros: Really cool interior Cons: Poor price value more

My wife and I loved everything about this restaurant. The steaks were cooked EXACTLY like we ordered them. Their porterhouse is extremely tasty and tender. I ordered the Filet Oscar and it was wonderful. Their lobster bisque is some of the best I've ever had. We also loved their shrimp cocktail. Pros: Steak cooked as we ordered. Cons: A bit pricey, parking is a bit rough. more

If you enjoy spending money foolishly to make yourself feel rich and important, this is the place to do it! We were terribly disappointed in our meal. I have had much better filets, their mashed potatoes were nothing special and the appetizers were tasteless. If you think this place is the best, you need to travel more! Pros: clean, valet parking, attentive waitstaff Cons: overpriced, average food more

Went there with the family. Not one of us was pleased. My filet mignon was burned, as was my brother's steak, and he ordered his medium. Our bill was way over $200, and not one of us liked our meal. Definitely not worth the money. more

Excellent steakhouse with clubby decor. Filet melts in the mouth. Pros: food quality, atmosphere, service more

I went to Mitchell's for an anniversary dinner, and I loved it. The steaks were fabulous, and the sauce was the best I have ever tasted. Yes, the restaraunt is over-priced (~$90 for a full meal for two), but all of Cameron's restaurants are. Mitchell's is great if you're looking for a ritzy meal. Get reservations for the weekend, even if it means working ahead; dining is more fun when Mitchell's is full. With this, plan to take advantage of the valet parking, especially in winter. It's worth the price. The waitstaff is friendly and knows the menu, but they probably won't tell you that sides are big. Decide on 2-3 and share; it will be plenty. The tomatoes with mozzarella are fantastic. Plan to spend money, dress up, and make a big deal out of going downtown to Mitchell's (it has a better atmpsphere than Polaris). Then enjoy it! Pros: best steaks in town, big side portions, friendly staff Cons: weekend traffic, a little overpriced more

Nothing beats Mitchell's Steakhouse for a great night out. The food is spectacular, and the service is so personable. The interior of the restaurant is incredible - it has to be the most beautiful restaurant in the city. more

A very enjoyable evening even it your not there with your best friend. Outstanding quality and service delivery. You feel as if you are the only person that matters. Special attention and service seems to be the norm. more

Excellent Food & Service. Great Atomosphere. What more could you ask? Pros: Good Parking, Tremendous Service, Great Food more

Truly the best steak I've tasted in Columbus! Melt-in-your-mouth filet is to die for! My brother-in-law & his fiance were in town from Europe & we wanted to treat them to a great dinner. They were both more than impressed with not only the steak, but the ambiance of the restaurant as well. more

My wife and I went for our anniversary recently. I was very impressed. The decor was very interesting and set an excellent mood. Our server was very familar with the menu and with the wine list. One of the best traits of a good server is that they do not pester you, ours did not. He appeared when we needed something and was very quiet and fast. The food was outstanding. I had the filet and was shocked at how tender and juicy it was. THe side items, ordered seperately, were well prepared and they had a wide range to choose from. The wine list was full and had everything from ""by the glass"" to very expensive bottles. This is not a cheap evening out but if you are looking for something special then this is your place! more
