Gordon's is a mediocre chain IMO. You'd be better off going someplace else.

Ted's Montana Grill

Really good small chain. The one in the Arena District is the very first Ted's.

I would call it more over priced than mediocre, but my mom will drive from Marysville to the brewery district just because she likes their fries.

Their fries and the Lobster & Shrimp Mac & Cheese are about the only things I really think are worth it there.

If you are in the Arena District, just walk over to the Short North and go to Hyde Park.

It really just depends on what you want and what you're willing to spend. Check this out:

Ate there a few weeks ago. Pizza is fine...but about a step above what I could buy in the freezer aisle.

J Gumbos is a pretty cool cajun, creole place. Something different. It's on Gay St.

You didn't order the pizza reheated in a skillet or you wouldn't say that.

North Market has amazing food and a ton of choices and jenis ice cream for dessert...if you haven't been here this is the place to go... It has any kind of food for great prices and it's all great. I would recommend the salmon from the Italian place and jenis ice cream
