Overview
Nada Columbus is an upscale modern Mexican restaurant featuring spectacular culinary options in a bright, energetic environment. From the moment you open the door to Nada you can feel the Latin energy hitting you in a way that makes you wish you had made it in sooner. Nada’s atmosphere is inviting; providing the warmth and comfort one experiences in a place that is fond and familiar. The staff is friendly and approachable, never making you feel as though asking for anything, whether an extra napkin or another drink, is a nuisance. Overall, dining at Nada was a pleasurable experience both in the culinary, and atmospheric senses.
Food + Drink
I visited Nada for a weekend brunch and was pleased at having brunch-specific options while also having access to the full regular menu. I have in the past dined at places that limit you to a small menu during certain hours instead of actually using the opportunity to feature additional dishes, potentially leading diners to come more often for brunch, etc. The Presentation of both the food and drinks was aesthetically-pleasing without being over the top or distracting from the flavors being experienced. The freshness and quality of the ingredients used was evident throughout the meal by the appearance, texture, and overall taste of the items. For example, no one can deny the stark difference between the taste of freshly-made or not-so-fresh, guacamole.
Cocktails
Of the cocktails I tried, the pineapple mojito was my favorite. It was sweet but not overbearingly so.

- Service: The staff at Nada were super attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. I have at times before, found servers that check in so often it becomes a bit much but this was not the case at Nada.
- Ambiance: The colorful interior of Nada added vibrant energy to the overall experience. The lighting was good and included plenty of natural sunlight steadily streaming through the restaurant’s many windows. The music, an energetic mix of reggaeton fit the modern-Mex vibe seamlessly. In fact, the music was the first thing I noticed when I walked in the door.
- Value: The pricing for the quality of the food received, portion sizes of the dishes, as well as the overall dining experience fits. The prices are more than reasonable for the experience offered. Can’t recommend enough!
