Great attention to detail. My girlfriend is gluten free and they took great care of us.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hidden Gem Alert: Brooklyn Vibes Meet Columbus Culinary Excellence I stumbled upon [‘plas] on 5th Ave a few nights ago and WOW – this place is everything Columbus’s food scene deserves. AESTHETIC: Tucked into what looks like a converted brick townhouse, this spot nails the effortless Brooklyn industrial-chic aesthetic without trying too hard. The moment you walk in, you’re hit with that perfect balance of exposed brick warmth and a modern feel that makes you want to linger. You also have options for interior or patio seating - both having their own, unique qualities. FOOD: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 The Food Game is STRONG. A large portion of the menu is made from scratch in-house, and you can taste the difference in every single bite. They offer seasonal menus and seem to have a lot of vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free offerings. Fair Warning: this place uses spices. Not just “heat” but actual FLAVOR (think cumin, garam masala, and Cajun spices). I had the Sea Bass and it was an absolute masterpiece: perfectly prepared, with sides that enhanced rather than competed. We also tried the Creole Tartare (tuna) and the Chef’s Charcuterie - everything had fresh, intense flavors that somehow never overwhelmed. It’s clear they have a passion for food and their kitchen knows exactly what they’re doing. DESSERT: 🍫🍰🥮 We went full dessert mode and sampled almost all of the dessert menu (don’t judge). We tried the Espresso Pots du Creme, the Peanut Butter Mousse, the Hazelnut Olive Oil Cake, and two of the “dessert cocktails”. Everything was phenomenal. SERVICE: Shoutout to Xander, our server, who struck that perfect balance between attentive and chill. He made genuine recommendations, kept our glasses full, and added to the relaxed vibe. OVERALL: Whether you consider yourself a foodie, need to plan a date night, or just want an elevated meal that doesn’t feel stuffy, ’Plas delivers on every front. The seasonal menu concept keeps things fresh, and the execution was excellent. I definitely want to go back and try more things.
