Fine dining place about a block from Main Street and the state capitol complex
We had tried a couple of fine dining places on prior trips to Columbia. We had not eaten here, though, and it was just a short walk from our hotel.

Great food, great service, great experience
We had a large party of 10 and we were accommodated as if we were a VIP party of 4. The service was professional, friendly, attentive, and accurate. The food matched.

This is the best in Columbia dining. The place is cool, great vibes, good people watching, excellent food, the service is superior. We have been several times since moving here and it is consistently awesome.

This place is top tier and a must return. If you’re not interested in sitting at the high top tables (for 2) next to the bar, reservations are highly recommended.

Had a wonderful experience in June 2023 at Cola’s. My husband and I showed up without a reservation on a Friday evening for dinner around 7. There weren’t any regular tables immediately available but was seated at a high top table in the bar area.
