It was crowded and there was a bit of a wait to order for our party of 5 adults, but were assisted by one of the workers who saw that we also had a baby with us who made sure we had a spot and a high chair by the time we had ordered. The food was very good. Chopped salad, breakfast burrito, veggie burgers, ricotta pancakes, chili, hot cider, and more. The downside was the annoying, extremely loud soundtrack. I left with a headache, and it did not help digestion. I felt like they kept it like that to make sure no one lingered (although the table next to us was occupied when we sat down, and still occupied when we left.)

The staff was amazing here! We were a bigger group of 5 on a busy thursday lunch and they helped us find a table! I got the buddha bowl which i've had a few times before. The tofu has a smokey taste and the peanut sauce is yum. it's so good and the perfect amount. i don't leave hungry but i also don't need rolled out. I'm including some other meals my friends ordered because the food is so vibrant and fresh.

Always a great place for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. Very welcoming and friendly staff. Comfortable and cozy too. While I'm partial to the OG Short North location, every one of the locations has a familiar feel. And soon the Kenwood Square location in Cincy will be closer to my current home.

Very good food. Orange juice very testy, we took chicken sandwich and fish sandwich both were perfect with salad. Great service. Nice and clean room.

Northstar cafe is great for breakfast and lunch and even for a casual dinner out. Their adherence to farm fresh food has been why it's become so popular in Columbus. You order at a counter and they bring your food to you. The location near Clintonville has a nice patio for outdoor seating in the summer which is great. I love their egg sandwiches as well as their prosciutto and poached egg for breakfast. And if you're a bacon lover definitely don't miss out on the side of bacon! Their soups and salads are petty good for lunch as are their thin crust pizzas. I've not loved the hamburger here the one time I've tried it. All in all a nice casual dining place which can get pretty busy during peak hours.

It's a fun and energetic vibe. The food comes out quick and the servers are friendly. It's a walk up and order then they bring it to you place. The outdoor seating is small and very close to the street but its still nice. The ingredients are very fresh and tasty with good sized portions. It was a great place for lunch!

Another fabulous chopped salad at Northstar! Love this place and their food. Today was craving a salad and they delivered. Also enjoyed the minty ginger ale. Responsive servers, pleasant ambiance, easy parking on street or in the lot behind the building. This location seems a little smaller than others but has the same friendly vibe as other locations. I wish there were additional locations in Cincinnati!

Live jazz every evening which makes the perfect pairing with their great ambience and menu options. We went to their Easton Center location and service was excellent. Food came fast and there were plenty of places to choose for seating. Burrata pizza is absolute must (did not take pictures ) as well as chicken bowl with peanut sauce amazing flavor and perfect spiciness

Every time we visit back home this on my list of stops! Love love their Thai burrito (I get it with tofu) and simple salad! Food is always good - staff is friendly- and they have several locations as well.
