Our Go-To Spot! Every visit to this food hall feels like a mini culinary adventure, and we always leave happy, full, and already planning our next trip. With 10 diverse, reasonably priced restaurants and 3 lively bars, there’s truly something for every craving and mood. Our must-try favorites? Zaki Grill’s Mediterranean dishes are a standout—their tender lamb chops, smoky grilled chicken, and creamy sauces are packed with authentic flavor. For soul food that hits the spot, Modern Southern Table never disappoints, with crispy fried chicken, buttery cornbread, and fried okra that taste like home. When we’re in the mood for Asian comfort food, beep beep (newly opened) delivers with tasty bowls of noodles and fried rice loaded with fresh veggies and bold seasonings. And let’s not forget Marlowe’s Cheese Steaks—juicy, cheesy, and piled high on a soft roll—or The Cheesecake Girl, whose rich, velvety slices are the perfect sweet ending. The rooftop seating takes the experience to another level. Whether we’re relaxing with cocktails, listening to live music, or catching a game on the big screen, the atmosphere is unbeatable. Speaking of drinks, the daily specials keep us coming back—from sweet wine to creative cocktails, the bars here know how to mix up a good time. What really makes this place special is the energy and variety. No matter who we’re with, everyone finds something they love. Between the flavor-packed food, great drinks, and vibrant setting, it’s no wonder this place was ranked the number one food hall and is one of our favorite spots. A must-visit for foodies and fun-seekers alike!

⭐⭐ 2/5 Beep Beep – Budd Dairy Food Hall (Columbus, OH) ⭐⭐ ⭐⭐ ⭐ – Budd Dairy Food Hall First time hearing about Budd Dairy? It’s a local food hall in Columbus with rotating vendors, small restaurants, and a solid reputation for good eats. Beep Beep is one of them — serving Filipino comfort food like adobo rice bowls. I ordered the #ChickenAdoboBowl, mainly because it came with garlic rice. That was the selling point. But what I got? Bland, room-temp white rice with no real flavor at all. The garlic must’ve called off. The pickled onions — usually my favorite part — were dull and tasted like fridge leftovers. No brightness, no bite. The chicken was soft but barely seasoned. If it hadn’t been lightly sauced, I wouldn’t have known what I was eating. Surprisingly, the egg was the star. Perfectly cooked with crispy edges and a runny yolk that actually brought some life to the dish. If the rest of the bowl matched the egg, we’d be having a very different conversation. I ordered with high hopes — not just because I’d enjoyed my last visit, but because I wanted this to be my go-to when I was in the mood for something warm and filling. Instead, I left with half a bowl and still craving something “good.” ↔ The portion was fair and the presentation looked nice, but none of that mattered when I couldn’t even bring myself to finish it. Not because I was full — but because I couldn’t justify forcing it down. With so many other vendors under the same roof, I’ll probably keep exploring — but this bowl reminded me that pretty packaging doesn’t always mean a flavorful payoff. Anyone else try Beep Beep lately? Maybe I caught an off day?

What a great place to find food.. Made my decision of what we'd actually get hard because there was such a great variety. That food from four different places and everything was delicious. Worth the price. The Philly cheesesteaks for a nice homage to Philly. The fries at that location were absolutely delicious. The Jamaican food was spot on. Then for dessert it could get a brownie cookie or cheesecake. For the adult vibe they have bar on the rooftop.

I came here as a tourist with my family because the different food options. I ordered udon noodles that took a while but tasted delicious. My family member ordered food from the soul food place that took a long to get ready & said it tasted dry & was pricey. We tried the cheesecake which was delicious. Overall I rate here 4.5/5 for slow service but delicious food.

This sounds like a foodie paradise! The lack of mall distractions and the pure focus on the culinary experience is truly something to aspire for. The taco restaurant and southern restaurant pairing is already mouth-watering and with the unique flavors of Filipino street food and Pokebap, it's a feast for the taste buds. The clean, unique ambience with friendly service adds to the whole experience. The rooftop bar and patio are the icing on the cake, allowing one to enjoy the view and relax while enjoying the food. Places like this are truly worth visiting again and again! What's your favorite restaurant?

This is a food hall with a wonderful atmosphere. Three levels to enjoy with a bar on each level. We've ate here a few times and we've always had great service. We booked the second floor last night for a private event and it was fantastic! The staff was extremely helpful. All our guest loved the place and had a great time. A lot of them stayed after and enjoyed the DJ on the rooftop. Thank you so much Budd Dairy for making our event a success.

A little pricey, but great concept. A high Scale food Court. Our family of four paid about $90 for our meal. My son and I enjoyed the noodle restaurant-everything was cooked fresh to order and had great flavor. My husband and daughter had Cluck Norris-the chicken, onion rings and fries were all amazing. We all like pickle chips deep fried over pickle spears, but the batter tasted good. They have a central bar where you can get beers or cocktails, too.
