    I was blown away. At first, I was hesitant, as this is located in a new and upcoming area for Columbus. Wow, have I been missing out? This is THE PLACE for the newcomers to Columbus. This establishment is exactly what Columbus needed. Food and drinks were above my expectations. The server was real and attentive. Can't wait to bring my friends and out-of-towners to The Junto and the Brass Eye.

    Amazing small plates and a view that can’t be beat. Large dinner plates and sides are not offered, so bear that in mind when booking. Drink selection is fantastic. Was hoping for a more special experience as we were going to celebrate a birthday, and though notes were left, nothing special was done from a service or dining perspective. However, for a date night or night on the town with friends, highly recommend.
