After the pandemic took its toll, buffets are making a comeback. Two have opened in Columbus since December, and a third is on its way this spring.

Columbus has four restaurants on OpenTable's list of the 100 most romantic restaurants in the country, including Cento, Jeff Ruby's Steakhouse, Lindey's, and Mitchell's Ocean Club.

A national steakhouse chain is opening its first Columbus location. Mastro’s Steakhouse will open at 3965 New Bond St. at Easton Town Center Feb. 7.
