Blake's Kitchen & Kocktailz

Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Highly recommend this restaurant and sports bar.

We intended to go to Schobel's, but decided to stop by Blake's since we've never been. What a mistake that was. First off, food took a long time to come. They're busy I get it. But what was most bizarre, was that waitresses (not our waiter) kept coming by and asking if we were ok (as I stared at an empty table). I finally had enough, and half-laughed sayinf, I would be better if I had my food.Shortly after, the food arrived. My fried fish came on dry bread and onion rings were extremely over fried. The catfish wasn't fresh and had a fishy taste. The onion rings were like biting into sawdust. I tried my husband's burger and it was ok. So were the sweet potato fries (a little soggy toward the bottom). But for $12-$13, I expect a decent meal and at least decent service. It would have been better if we had the same waiter or waitress the whole time, but it seemed like none of the staff knew what order had been put in, or what we were waiting on. I will stick with Schobel's or the Italian place across the street in the future, when driving through Columbus.

We were on vacation in Cat Springs, and wanted somewhere good to eat, and decided to drive the 25 min to get there. We ordered ahi nachos that were amazing, pizza was mediocre, the chicken wings snd coconut shrimp were also fantastic!We also ordered dessert that was great. We had the key lime pie, chocolate cake, and funnel cake. All 3 were delicious

Decided trying something different and heard about Blake's.My Grandson and I walked in, very attractive designed restaurant/bar. We were waited on promptly!We looked over the menu and chose several items!Started with Firecracker shrimp, Gator Bites and Brussel Sprouts for starters!The Firecracker shrimp and sauce was good. The shrimp were pretty small! The Gator bites was fair at best. Mikey loves alligator at Pappdeaux's in Houston. It tasted more like a crab cake. I even asked if the order was right. They assured me it was. Mikey didn't like, so I gave up my firecracker shrimp to him!Took my first bite of the Brussel Sprouts. Didn't like it, but hung in there. Closer in you could taste the cheese and chili honey and it was very good.I ordered a tower of onion rings and a Salisbury steak. The onions were good, The Salisbury was good, but I wish it was larger and had more gravy.I had to order chicken tenders for Mikey. They we're just OK. But it filled in for him, because the shrimp were so small and skinny!I barely give this place three stars on the food!The design of the location, 4 plus stars!The bar, 4 plus stars!In my mind, if your looking for a great singles bar, this place is excellent! The food, I guess fits for bar food!The reason for 3 stars is only based on the food. The bar and singles scene is much higher!

Love this place! I go to Columbus for work twice a year and I look forward to eating here every time. Really spacious restaurant and bar. Big patio for plenty of outdoor seating. Great music. The staff is super chill, friendly, and welcoming. Blake is often out and about waiting on tables himself and you wouldn't even guess he's the owner. The food is great! I have had many items off this menu and have yet to be let down, in fact, my favorite is the Chicken and Waffle Slider. Don't be fooled by the word "slider" because this thing is massive. This is a must-order item. Side note, Blake's Thursday night steak special is hands-down the best steak special in town!

We made dinner reservations for our party of four recently. The food was moderately good. The largest hinderance to the evening was the extremely slow service. Slow to get drinks, then salads, waiting to order entrees,then receive them. It took three hours to complete our meal. Owners need to respond to service failings.Bartender should not be waiting tables while mixing drinks.

I meant to post this yesterday. What a fabulous find on our way home to Houston. The bartender was awesome and the food was amazing! We split a wedge salad, wings, and the ahi tuna nachos. All was delicious! The couple next to us ordered the Brussels sprouts. When I asked how they were, he told us to sample one. That was how he found out about them. Needless to say, that will be added to our order next time. The atmosphere was cute. Apparently they have live music. We will definitely add this to our return list.

WOW! This place is truly a hidden gem! Service was FABULOUS, food was fresh and great portion sizes and all very well priced! The Brussel sprouts were soooo good, my hubby even enjoyed them! Chicken fried steak was one of the best I've ever had. I'll definitely be stopping in here again!

All food is really good especially the steaksSteak night on Thursdays is the best deal

Awesome spot! Great staff, food and atmosphere! Definitely on our rotation! Can't wait to visit again!
