Family Style Meals to-go in Columbus

Dining out is different these days. So many questions: is it safe for me? is it safe for the employees? If you want to support the restaurant industry, but don’t want to “dine out”, you can “dine at home” with these Family Style Meals to go!

These family style options are usually more cost-effective than order 4-6 individual entrees, and you can dine like a family without putting in the work in the kitchen! You’ll get to enjoy your restaurant favorites for less cost, and support the restaurant industry. Not only will your food costs be less, you won’t have to buy beverages at restaurant mark-up. 

We’ll be adding to this list regularly, and some options may change or be discontinued at any time, so please check the links. Let us know if we are missing any of your favorites!
