Hands down, the Refectory is the nicest in Columbus. Be warned, though, the Refectory costs a pretty penny and should only be reserved for the most special occasions. This is not a restaurant to take your date to for Prom or for children under 18. This is a restaurant for adults. Everything is expensive, and skipping alcohol will help save money. The atmosphere is incredibly quiet and tables are very secluded. If you're looking for romance, this is the place. But be careful who you take. The service is designed to be slow and sparse to give you time to enjoy yourselves, and you will only talk to the people seated at your table. If everything on the menu seems foreign, try the swordfish... it was the best meal I have ever eaten in my life! Save the Refectory for a once in a lifetime meal, you won't regret it.
Pros: Delicious food, Knowledgeable staff, Quiet
Cons: Expensive
