We waited to order. We waited longer for the food. How long for the food....?Well from the time we "ordered" over 45 minutes and never received food. we left hungry and cold. (It was freezing inside that restaurant)It was relatively emptyThe server was nice. Not sure what the delay was. kathy the server said there was a huge take out order that delayed our order and ours would be right out. (Which I feel may have been a fib.... Not sure but my gut say probably.... Why? No one had come in for a "big"take out order, I think she forgot to log in our order as she was distracted with the table next to us that had their former cook there. I could see that easily happening under this situation.) After waiting another three minutes and no food, we were "over" Over the Counter and nicely told her were leaving. To cancel our order. She nicely tried to entice us to stay saying the owner was going to give us a gift certificate... but that just further solidified that they "knew" our meals timing had gone sideways and we had been neglected. We chose to leave and we dont really plan on coming back. Why? The inside seemed old. We saw the kitchen from our table. It seemed disorganized. It gave off a bad vibe. Add our wait. Meh. Like I said Im over over the table.

What an odd little place this is wedged into the southern edge of Worthington. Outside it has this 60s diner vibe and inside it has more of a beerhaus vibe that was a little confusing. The menu is mostly Diner fare.I went here for lunch on a random Thursday just to check it out. The food was fine, but the service was pretty slow, the other patrons were considerably older, and the beer selection was awfully weak considering it seemed to be a focus. I didn't really feel like there was anything special about the experience as a whole unfortunately. Not for me.

We meet some friends here for dinner before going to a concert. It is located in a strip mall and has a little patio in front with some umbrellas. It does not have any heaters, so it would only be good in the warmer months. There was plenty of parking as the other businesses were closed by the time we arrived. On the inside it has some high tables with a bench on one side and high-top chairs on the other. The bar is located on the other side and has plenty of seats and televisions. Our server was nice and friendly. Big surprise, we started out with drinks. I got a whiskey sour with Makers Mark and a couple of cherries, to make it a wee bit sweeter. My man got a Yeungling draft, one of his regular beers. We shared the Beer Pretzel Bites, they were delicious. Oh, so crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, it even came with two ramekins of cheese. There was some cheese left over, which usually never happens. For my meal I got a cup of French Onion Soup and the Italian Chicken Sandwich. The croutons on the soup were large and crunchy, and there was a ton of melted cheese on top. I ordered the cup and it appeared to almost be bowl size. The chicken was grilled, with red peppers, lettuce, tomato, provolone cheese and some pesto aioli. The bread was something I had never seen before, grilled tomato swirl beard, like a marble rye. YUMMY!My man got the Counter Burger with American cheese, lettuce, tomato and red onion on a grilled bun, with a side of onion rings. It also came with a pickle spear on the side. Everything must have been good because he ate it all and did not even save me a bite, lol. We will definitely be back a couple of times. First for the brunch which is served on both Saturdays and Sundays. Second for the fish and chips and maybe a steak.

I haven't been by OTC in a couple of years and decided to pop in to check it out. I went in around 815pm, knowing they were closed at 9. The staff was incredible with service and didn't make me feel rushed even though they were closing in less than an hour.I grabbed the Pretzel bites with beer cheese as an appetizer and the Route 23 salad with Salmon for my meal.These pretzel bites are ABSOLUTELY incredible!! I could stop in daily for these and never be disappointed!! They are so crisp on the outside and super soft in the center. It comes with 2 cups of beer cheese, which is enough, so you don't have to order extra ($0.99)The route 23 is full of flavor with goat cheese crumbles, candied nuts, and fresh strawberries!! The house made sweet balsamic dressing is the perfect pairing! I added the 8oz portion of Salmon ($7.99) vs the smaller 4oz ($4.99). The Salmon was cooked correctly and was a delicious choice!They had mutilple local and imported selections on Draft, a full bar to satisfy any drinks cravings, and wine.Thanks, OTC! Keep crushing it!!

What a great find! We were looking for Brunch and this place hit the spot! Great Corned Beef Hash with an egg over top. Casadea was big and filled with goodies. We will be going back for lunch and dinner soon. Menu looked varied and value priced.They were busy but staff was hustling and handled it well.

I went in for dinner, and specifically for the French onion soup which was one of the best I've ever had (definitely try it). However I followed that up with a grilled chicken Cesar wrap which was disappointing. The grilled chicken seemed marinated but had an odd flavor. And each half of my wrap only had a tiny dab of what seemed to be a house made non-classic Cesar dressing. I love trying different things, and I'm not a purist, so I appreciate different interpretations of meals, but this Cesar wrap didn't work. Fortunately I was able to wash it down with one of the many draft beers they offer.Service was really friendly and very attentive. While I did have an assigned server, the entire staff pitched in to help take orders and deliver the food and drinks. Ultimately, I would go back for the French onion soup and good beer selection, I'll just swap out the Cesar wrap for something else.

Geez, I can't believe I never knew this restaurant was here! Met friends for lunch - loved it as soon as I walked in the door. It's a bit quirky with relic decor and has the original flooring (loved it). The waitress was very nice and attentive. The food! I only had French Onion soup (Delicious rich broth) and their fried pickle spears (really, really good with thin crusting and great homemade ranch dressing). One friend had chicken tenders which looked great - and he said they were very good pieces of chicken. I can't wait to go back!

I was served by Ella last weekend. She was so incredible and attentive! She recommended the breakfast quesadilla to me, and it was absolutely DELICIOUS! Phenomenal service and overall vibe. Her and I had such an encouraging conversation about life, she really turned my whole day around with her personality and kindness. Give this girl a raise! So cute inside, too. :)
