What User dislikes about Watershed Kitchen Bar:
New to Columbus, and while I'm glad we gave it a try, I probably won’t return. The service was excellent, and the drinks were enjoyable. The food was just okay; everything felt overpriced, which seems common these days. Some of the dishes appeared overly complicated, with extravagant sides and garnishes that I didn’t think were necessary. I wouldn't go back for a full meal, but it could be a nice spot for happy hour... View all feedback.

We have now come to Watershed for several consecutive New Years Eve(s); last year and this year, with a chef’s tasting menu that comes with several options, have been the BEST. It is a good value and a surprise gift card after paying your check is a super-nice touch. We were in a far area away from the bar, and enjoy that since it is quieter and allows for conversation. Just one thing this year: I chose the duck and dumplings and must comment to the chef that the dumplings were very disappointing. They ruined my entree; instead of something light and fluffy, as MY grandma would have made, I am pretty sure I could have played tennis with these. Not much duck, either, but the gravy and that little bit of duck was really flavorful. All others said their meals were wonderful, and each course was at its best. Thanks for a wonderful meal, and to our server, whom we also enjoyed last year, was top-notch.

We reserved a table for the new years eve dinner for our wedding anniversary. It was a fantastic 4 course meal, truly gourmet dining. Service is impeccable, it was a wonderful dinner. When our server brought our receipt, he gave use two tour tickets, and a tasting of their nocino finished bourbon as a anniversary gift!

Service was lack luster. Took over hour to get food Food was either really good like the fish or really bad like the duck/dumplings. Just overall wasn’t satisfied with the overall experience especially for the price.

I recently had my first visit to this restaurant, and it was a wonderful experience! Our server was extremely helpful and attentive, making sure to check our dietary restrictions. The ambiance is delightful! They have an impressive cocktail menu that features bourbon flights. The food was outstanding, and I’m eager to come back to sample more dishes!

This hidden bar and restaurant is a true haven for cocktail lovers. The lounge-style decor features a glass wall that showcases the numerous vats used for distilling their spirits. The cocktail menu is reminiscent of a 1950s magazine, offering a diverse selection of drinks. The food menu is more limited, focusing on quality rather than quantity. I sampled the beef short rib alongside an Old Fashioned-inspired cocktail, both of which were exceptional. Although the service was a bit slow on the busy night we visited, it didn't detract from the overall experience. Be aware that the prices reflect the quality, making this an ideal spot for special occasions.
