Upscale Italian restaurant. Obviously, known for their great martinis.
If you are looking for a great steak, this is your place.
If you are wanting to do a little shopping and/or bar hopping, we suggest heading over to the Short North. Start at the Le Meridien Hotel and head north, there are tons of bars/restaurants and shopping boutiques to choose from.
If you are wanting to get a sweat in before the big day, we suggest running/walking the Scioto Mile. Right in front of the hotel, you will see the COSI building, walk to the side facing the city and you will find steps leading you to the Scioto Mile path. Ask the hotel concierge about renting kayaks to take out on the river.
If you have never been to Columbus before, the bride suggest exploring OSU campus. In just a short 8 minute car ride from the The Junto, you can walk around campus, Mirror Lake and see The Shoe. (Please Note: As an OSU hater, the groom does not support this recommendation)
