Christina & Steven
Things To Do
Short North Arts District
The Short North is located on North High Street just south of The Ohio State University. It's a strip of bars, restaurants, art galleries, coffee shops, and more. Steven and Christina have spent many days and nights in the Short North. Their favorite bars are Pint House, Bristol Republic, Oddfellows, and Fours. Steven swears you can find the best wings in all of Columbus at Press Grill.
The Rossi Kitchen & Bar
The place that started it all! Visit Steven and Christina's first date spot, The Rossi, for a delicious dinner or handcrafted cocktail. This restaurant meant so much to Steven and Christina they named their first dog, Rossi, after it. Make sure to try Christina's favorite dish, Pasta Rossi.
One Line Coffee-Short North
Steven and Christina's favorite coffee shop located in the Short North. Their go to (basic, I know) drink is a vanilla latte. However, Christina will branch out for a seasonal latte. Steven and Christina used to live right down the street from this coffee shop.
North Market Downtown
Located right down the street from the Hilton Downtown, North Market has a plethora of delicious food vendors. You can get pasta, tacos, cupcakes, seafood, Bubble Tea, Jeni's Ice Cream, and much more. Try Columbus staple Hot Chicken Takeover or Steven's favorite beef pho from Lan Viet.
German Village
German Village is a cute neighborhood full of cobblestone roads, beautiful historic homes, and one of a kind restaurants. Christina and Steven's favorite restaurants in the German Village are Lindeys, Chapmans, and Barcelona. Their favorite bar where you can get delicious handcrafted cocktails is Antiques on High. Christina's all time favorite bookstore is The Book Loft. It sits right beside a dainty coffee shop, Staufs, and a decadent pastry shop, Pistacia Vera. You can even have fun just walking through this neighborhood.
Basi Italia
Christina and Steven's favorite restaurant in all of Columbus! Delicious Italian food with a patio full of string lights and greenery. You cannot go wrong with anything you eat at this restaurant. Christina and Steven used to live right down the street!
Ohio Stadium
The Shoe is Steven and Christina's favorite place on Earth. You will find them there every Saturday in the Fall, rain or shine, for a Buckeye Football game. You can walk the whole campus and see where Steven and Christina almost met about one million times.
Budd Dairy Food Hall
A popular lunch/dinner spot where you can get Filipino, Italian, Mediterranian, Mexican, Southern, Asian food, cheesecake, and so much more. They have delicious cocktails and a rooftop bar to enjoy your food/drink. They even have a floor filled with board games, shuffle board, skee ball, and more.
Goodale Park
A park outside the Short North with a water fountain, pond, luscious trees and plants, tennis courts, and more. You'll find dogs, runners, readers, strollers, and sometimes even live music! Steven and Christina used to live right by the Park and would often take walks with their dog together.
Lion Cub's Cookies
You will find the absolute best cookies at Lion's Cub in Grandview - Christina swears by it. They are leaps and bounds better than Crumbl Cookies! Christina and Steven recommend you stop in for some cookies to bring home on the way back. Jeni's ice cream is located right next door if you have a big sweet tooth like Christina.
Zeno's
The local bar right down the street from Steven and Christina's house. The bartenders don't even ask for their names anymore. Get yourself a bucket of beer and enjoy the patio, as Steven and Christina often do!
