Was a topic of discussion at work today. Definitely a lot of great ones. Let's hear it.

I voted Thurman Cafe. That place gets my rocks off.

i know it's not the best, but i've been digging cuco's on henderson lately. really good mexican food, and you can get out of there for about 10 bucks per person including drinks.

IMO, way better. the cuisine is much more authentic, and it's a little bit cheaper. it's a little bit hard to find, but definitely worth it.

Canes is a chain. Don't get me wrong, I like some chicken strips and garlic toast as much as the next guy, but it is far from the best.

I enjoy El Vaquero. The diablo chicken is one of my favorite dishes in all of Columbus. What I really miss living in Kansas is Genji, Feta Express, roosters and I cant remember the name but theres a really good sub place they just built one off of 256 in reynoldsburg about a year ago. (not subway quiznos grinders or jersey mikes) Off subject but does anyone know any good thai places in Columbus I want to find a good place to get phad thai next time I am back.

In the four years I've lived on campus, getting Canes fucked up has become as normal as breathing. Definitely not the best in all of Columbus, but the best on campus for sure.

Thai Orchid off of Sawmill road north of Powell Road. We get it for clients at work and they rave about it.

PJ's is only good when you're drunk, and even when you're drunk it's not all that fantastic.

If I was from Columbus...which I'm not...I think I'd pick a Columbus exclusive. That's my interpretation of this question. El Valquero and Canes...not so much.

I'm a fan of all the Cameron Mitchell restaurants, whether currently or previously owned.
