Best KPortal Reviews

This place has a great vibe and the service is great. Our waitress Kim was AMAZING. She was very polite, professional, and attentive. The food was good, however their menu is very limited and most of the choices are spicy and of course I don't like spicy. My husband loves spicy food so he enjoyed the shrimp & grits I ordered because they were too spicy for me to eat. He also enjoyed the spicy chicken dip and we both really liked the fried chicken and mac and cheese. We won't be dining again but we may go in for cocktails.
The atmosphere is perfect and the blues music isn't too loud. The service is good. The chicken is lightly floured with flavor. Might be the top fried chicken in Columbus. Maybe. The bad part is all the sides are not good. Well I would say it doesn't taste like the south. So we normally just order 1 whole chicken and fries. Yes I have had every side and didn't like any of them. My southern taste buds rejected all the sides but loved the chicken. If you go when it's cold outside you will freeze. The inside feels like a huge doorway with a draft blowing in. Every window has a bad draft. Now if it's warm outside you can sit outside or anywhere and be fine. The winter upstairs is the warmest place. Everywhere else you will freeze. Seating on the highboy tables your feet will dangle. Only heals will touch the small ledge. It's better to sit at the bar or the floor.
The Eagle in Columbus, Ohio is an absolute gem for anyone craving delicious comfort food with a Southern twist. From the moment you step inside, the rustic and cozy atmosphere creates a welcoming vibe. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. Mainly for my first time.
Now, let's talk about the food. The menu at The Eagle is a true homage to Southern cuisine, and it does not disappoint. Their fried chicken is simply outstanding. Crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside, it's everything you could hope for in a fried chicken dish. The seasoning is on point, adding just the right amount of flavor without overwhelming the dish.
Not only is their fried chicken exceptional, but the side dishes are equally impressive. The shrimp and grits is a delightful combination of succulent shrimp and creamy, perfectly cooked grits. It's a flavor explosion that will leave you wanting more. The horseradish mash is a unique twist on traditional mashed potatoes, with a subtle kick of horseradish that adds depth to each bite. And let's not forget the garlic crumb mac and cheese. It's a heavenly blend of creamy macaroni and cheese topped with a crunchy garlic breadcrumb crust. Each side dish is a standout in its own right, showcasing the culinary expertise of the kitchen.
The Eagle also offers a great selection of craft beers and cocktails to complement your meal. Whether you're a beer enthusiast or prefer a creatively mixed drink, you'll find something to satisfy your taste buds.
The only downside of The Eagle is that it can get quite busy, especially during peak hours. However, the food and service are well worth the wait. I highly recommend making a reservation ahead of time to secure your spot.
We came for the first time on a Saturday at 12:30 and were seated pretty quickly! The table we sat at was a bit odd it was like a booth but with a divider in the middle food was well seasoned and cooked to perfection! The hushpuppies were sooo good. Our server was very good! It seemed though she was the only server in the whole restaurant. You could tell she was stressed. But otherwise very great restaurant and will be back again!
The environment and ambiance is nice and cozy. We had a friendly server that gave us menu suggestions and we were also helped by two other gentlemen. The food was amazing and it came very quick.
Had a nice lunch at The Eagle in the Short North. Ordered 1/4 Chicken (dark meat), Collards, and Hush Puppies. The food was good and the service was great.
Can I give the ten stars?!? Man I could go on forever. The atmosphere is always great, the service is great! Smiles and greetings at the front! The takeout is always on point. Sauce is in the bag, food is hot! Tea is sweet and dark like molasses. One of my favorites! Try them out!! You cannot beat this fried chicken sandwich! ???? oh and DO NOT forget the hot honey boiii!
Went there for a late night date! Service was impeccable, all staff takes very great care of you!! Zack was an amazing server and very informative about the menu! Definitely recommend him if its your first time. Food is 10/10, (i ordered fried chicken blt, mac n cheese spoon bread and collard greens) big portions and great if you want to share(probably will need to cause its a lot lol)It may be pricey for some but its worth it ☺️ Hope to stop by again soon!
