Hey, hey! Thank you for this shout out and we look forward to getting Fresh with you again!
What a delightful spot for a meal in downtown Columbia! The GOAT Avocado Toast and pistachio pasta salad were unbelievable. Excellent portions and complex flavors. Very good value for the money. I wish I lived close enough to become a regular here! The ambience was light and fun with board games scattered about and upbeat music playing. Good vibes, great …
Googled "best French dip in Columbia" and this little gem popped up. Lunch on a weekday was busy but I seated myself at the small counter and service was great. Obviously, I had the French dip, but after viewing the menu and what they were serving to other customers, I'll be back.

A quiet spot downtown with personality and delicious, fresh food. I love the selection of sandwiches and am determined to try them all! I've had a few different ones, but some top favorites from the current lineup are: "G.O.A.T. avocado toast", "Fig Pig", "The Twerkey Turkey", and "Stop. Hammy Time". I also really enjoyed the elusive egg salad brioche sandwich …
