The 19 Best Restaurants In Columbus, Ohio - Columbus - The Infatuation

"It can be tough to choose just one of Budd Dairy Food Hall’s various vendors, but you should head over to Modern Southern Table. The short menu has Cajun, Lowcountry, and soul food classics, and an order of Alabama-style fried chicken with crispy skin, paired with sides like sticky sweet candied yams and savory Geechee red rice, is almost required. It can be tough to find a good version of fried catfish in the Midwest, but theirs gets a nice saltiness from the cornmeal batter. Grab your order and one of the Kool-Aid punches, aka “dranks,” and find a seat in the huge food hall or on the rooftop patio." - erin edwards, kindra peach
