We stopped by here for a business dinner. The drinks at the bar were amazing and very delicious. We had the octopus for dinner and it was one of the most delicious things I've ever tasted. The squash was something to write home about. I highly recommend it for every person that eats here.The service was amazing and very attentive .

Belly has been on my long list of spots to try here in Columbia, and I'm kicking myself for not prioritizing this sooner! I've gotten the fried goat cheese salad now twice, and it still lives in my head rent free. The staff is so kind, the food comes out quickly, and the atmosphere is welcoming! One of my new fav lunch spots, and definitely worth trying! I'll be back soon!

We came in for lunch on a week day, and we arrived just before the lunch rush around 11am. I had heard this place has one of the best salads in Columbia, and it was big and delicious. The staff was very friendly. Ambiance is like a deli style fast casual spot.- Cobb salad (4/5): The salad was a large portion, with lots of bacon, chicken, cheese, blue cheese. Great combination and delicious lunch option. Comes with dressing on the side. I got ranch which was perfect.- Steak and burrata sandwich (3.5/5): This sandwich was the special of the day. The bread was perfectly toasted, buttery. Good portion of steak, which was cooked well. The sandwich was juicy, good flavor overall with pesto. The meat could have been seasoned a bit more but still yummy.

Absolutely delightful meal. Food was delicious. The server, Rosanna, was so knowledgeable and accommodating but not overly so. She was an ideal server. The restaurant temp was chilly.

Super inconsistent. I've had good enchiladas from this place and then one of the worst sandwiches ever. It bugs me that I let the management know that I had been served a bad meal and that no one sought to make it right. I didn't make a fuss -- just wrote a straightforward email and received no reply. Can't recommend this place.

I don't normally write reviews on restaurants but I received a $40 gift certificate last year to Hoss's and didn't realized they had been purchased by Belly. My impression was that when you buy a business and keep it as the same type of business you also buy their debt which includes gift cards. I called and the "owner" told us tough luck. They were really pretty rude so I won't be patronizing this business. There are so many other restaurants in Columbia that I'll take my business elsewhere rather than supporting a grill that doesn't care about the impression they create with patrons. (Plus I've read some pretty distasteful reviews here anyway.) Maybe it saved me from a nasty bout of food poisoning.

Belly always has at least one great offering on their hot lunch menu, and their deli case is diverse. Ben and company make some delicious food. Definitely stop in and check them out.

Got the rigantoni special with pasta la fata pasta and it was amazing!!! It was a couple weeks ago I think. I wish they had that all the time! The staff was great, the food was hot and delicious. The restaurant itself was clean, casual, and comfortable.

We just adored Hoss's, and the new owners of the renamed "Belly" (gross name) have updated the look for sure, but the food quality and choices have plummeted. VERY few menu options. All the fun wines and cheeses and spices and gifts and canned stuffs are gone. Old lunch favorites are gone (they claim they will still make them: why are they not on the menu, then??). And a couple of days ago was the last straw: my husband was eating his salad WHEN A BUG JUMPED OUT. He picked up the large piece of lettuce from which it appeared, and there was dirt all over it. And the seafood gumbo was NOT how it used to be -- had a weird fishy smell and milky and lukewarm. He got food poisoning -- I'll admit, there's no way to know for sure if it was at "Belly" -- but sure seems a strange coincidence.We used to love it when it was Hoss's -- seems like now all they care about is catering.
