I Like It Like That Bar

This bar is sooooo cute I just came here for Galentines with a friend and they have the best vibe. It's inside of Natalie's in Grandview but their own separate area. We came during an event at Natalie's and got to enjoy the perks of the live jazz which we both loved so much. The menu is great, many options without it being overwhelming. They also had a great description and a glossary explaining any potential new words or liquors to help inform your drink decision. The vibe was very moody, calm, and cozy. I love the eclectic antique vibe with the plants. We ordered the white pizza with bacon, the seasonal Arancini, the triple coffee Affogato, an orange cream soda, and orange wine. Everything was absolutely delicious but the star was definitely the Arancini. It was so amazingly delicious. The flavors all tied so well together it tasted like the perfect fall day in a bite. The Affogato was the second favorite. I love Affogato but I usually don't love the vanilla ice cream. The all coffee ice cream with espresso and coffee soaked cherries was truly everything I've wanted. I loved it here and the options for drinkers, non drinkers, and snackers. I will definitely be back and hopefully soon

One of the more inventive cocktail bars in the city! You'll probably need help going through their menu but you'll be glad you did! This might be the most "something for everyone" menu I've seen. Low-ABV, no-ABV folks will love this place and cocktail veterans will find something new. The vibes and decor make this a fantastic date spot!

We came here after the Levi Kreis show. Attached to Natalie's, so catch a show and walk over. Cute place, smallish, love the décor. Great customer service. Pricey drinks. Nice menu since Natalie's kitchen does all the food. Great place to have a drink. They have their own entrance on Fifth but you can also wander through Natalie's to get in.

Always enjoy my experience at I like It Like That! The drinks are always great and pretty spirit forward. They are all very unique and the bartenders will definitely give you a great breakdown of their menu. They also do have snacks, which have been amazing whenever we have gotten them. The vibes are always so cute.

Remember The Light of Seven Matchsticks speakeasy at the old Natalie's location in Worthington? It was like the best kept secret in Columbus. Good food, lively bar scene, secret cocktail menu, vibe, incredible live music. Sadly, this reincarnation is just not that. I get what they were going for, but it has none of the magic of the former spot. The staff is fantastic and the pizza is always solid, but that was about it. The non-pizza food portions are comically small, seating is awkward, the cocktail list was unappealing and the bar was dead at 10 pm on a Friday night. I wish them the best with it, but a disappointing experience for me.

This place is devine! They share a kitchen with Natalie's - with a slightly different menu. So, you can enjoy the delicious Natalie's pizzas in a sweet place with a feminine vibe.My friends and I went here before our comedy show at Natalie's, so it was the best of both worlds.Easy parking in the back, excellent service/staff, exceptional food, mocktails & cocktails. I will definitely be back!

Awesome place. Great atmosphere, outstanding drinks. Very friendly staff. Will definitely be back!!

I'm glad we popped into I Like It Like That and were able to get a table. The place is small (so getting a table isn't a guarantee!), but the service is really friendly and fun when they aren't swamped. Drinks are well-poured and tasty too! Definitely looking forward to coming back, but if you're someone who doesn't do well with small, cramped spaces, this may not be a good fit for you. NOTE: They're attached - but not the same - as Natalie's pizza next door. They have a separate entrance you can get to within the outdoor covered patio. PROS:-Drinks were delicious. The flavors were complex but very flavor-forward no matter what you got. Nothing here we ordered tasted too "straight booze". Lots of different flavors, though, with complex ingredient lists, so ask the bartenders if you're unsure. They were happy to make some modifications (light on the mint, etc.) if I asked.-I'm really in love with the "Glossary" they've attached to the backside of their flippable menu. This means the cocktail bar can use obscure flavors and jargons, and you, the customer, can look up what they mean. It's pretty fun to learn some new words too!-We loved that the wine menu was called "Giggle Juice". We also loved that they carried some non-alcoholic wines for people who may not be drinking for whatever reason. (They have mocktails too, but the NA wine was surprisingly flavorful and served with the same love as wine usually is.)-Service was super friendly. Despite running the whole place on a few bartenders, the bartender still took the time to explain the flavor profiles of drinks and had some great suggestions to make sure the drinks I ordered were great for my palette. -Vibe in here is really lovely. It was still early, so it wasn't too loud, but I imagine this place gets loud with the number of people and small space when it's full. But without so many people, it has a chill, after-work hang-out spot vibe to it. Not too fancy or elaborate but complex in the best of ways. They did a great job on the decor and natural lighting here. -Small variety of seating options, but they do have a couch, armless chairs, and high-top bar seating. Most of the seating is low-top, two-person tables, but they have a few multi-person tables. Do be aware that it's cramped, though, and some of the spaces between tables, as a bigger gal, gave me some serious anxiety. I'd be really uncomfortable fitting between some of the spaces here. CONS:-This place is SMALL. From some overhearing some bartender conversation, it may have been a storage room for the attached pizza/concert venue. They've fit some decent seating in here, but you definitely want a reservation if you want for-sure seating here. -If you want to use the restroom, you'll need to walk across the seating area of the next-door Natalie's. This includes a few doors and navigating multiple tables and chairs without a clear walkway; this would be a gigantic pain for those with mobility issues. -Bursts of ridiculous-level customers are common. After the shows let out next-door at Natalie's, a lot of people popped in for a drink, overwhelming the bartenders. It's not the end of the world, but potentially be aware you might need to be patient if you're coming while a show is happening next door.

Having opened only two weeks ago, I Like It Like That is already booked pretty solid, and with good reason. With multiple cozy seating areas with charming vintage flair, this stylish cocktail bar with small plates is not to be missed.We tried four cocktails, all were unique, inspired, and delicious. The Caffeine and Casein was creamy and indulgent (but not too much!) and was served with a wedge of pecorino- such a delight!The Pimpinella gets its mysterious, green jewel tone presumably from the chlorophyll it contains, and perfectly balances the absinthe at the finish.Journey Destination was a standout - the oaty, bready notes were distinct and surprising, accented by a salt rim. Under the Nose was deep dark, and accurately described by bartender Genevieve as "moody." Completely wonderful.If good times and great cocktails are things you enjoy, then this is the spot for you.

Extremely rude bartender - upset about something someone said to her - I can't control others, yet she slammed my receipt on the bar and threw the pin at me...really?! Pathetic.
