“ Great breakfast food. Nice, big dining room. Super-clean ladies' room. Friendly servers and clientele. I was here on a Saturday morning, got there just about opening time, 8AM. By the time I left it was starting to get somewhat busy -- 9:45 or so. Looks like the diner is popular with Columbus locals. ”
“ We came here for the first time and had breakfast. The food was outstanding. The omelette I had was perfectly prepared. My husband had a breakfast sandwich and said it was the best he ever had. Our server was very attentive and extremely friendly. We will definitely be back. ”
“ I stopped here for lunch at Noon on a Tuesday and the place was packed. There is not a lot of atmosphere in this place, but it had a lot of tables and could serve a bunch of people. My server came right over and gave me a menu and took my drink order. The menu was not large, but there should be something for everyone. When she came back with my drink, I ordered the fried bologna sandwich with double meat. I also ordered the house chips instead of the French fries. After quite a wait, approx. 20 minutes my food came out and I noticed the sandwich was on a bun instead of white bread as shown on the menu. Also, there were three pieces of bologna there. If this was double the meat, the normal portion only had 1-1/2 slices?? I thought that was weird. It was served with American cheese. The sandwich was good, and the bologna was tasty and on the greasy side, but delicious. The house made chips were spectacular... I would get those everyday if I lived in the area. They were crisp and had a body to them because they were on the thick side. They were very good. Overall, this was a great place to eat. The food was good. The service was great and the prices were really reasonable. I will stop here again when I’m in the area. ”
“ Absolutely loved having breakfast here. If you're in Columbus, do yourself a favor and stop in Rhodes Family Diner. Excellent food with unique selections at an excellent price. ”
“ I took my golf team there for lunch. Rohde’s has a wonderful, family atmosphere. The workers are very friendly, and they do a great job preparing homestyle meals. The tenderloin sandwich is a bit hit! ”
“ Came here for brunch. One of us got the breakfast with eggs over easy, hash browns, bacon and toast. Everything was cooked perfect. Someone got the burger with the grilled onions and cheese. It was good and bigger than expected, but really greasy. It would have been nice if they had let it rest on a paper towel or something to soak up some of the grease. The other person got the big breakfast sandwich with everything on it that came on a bun. It was good also, but again very greasy. Their was even a puddle of grease on the plate when it arrived at the table. Overall the food was good, the service was good, and the place was clean. ”
“ If you want to eat somewhere that is legit homemade cooking then this is it! No where in Columbus compares to Rohde's Diner. We have been to all the mom and pop restaurants, all the "hole in the wall" restaurants and not one compares to here. Everything is legitimately homemade and cooked to order. Today was my first time eating here and I can say I will not eat breakfast anywhere else while living in Columbus, Indiana. You get twice the portion of any big name restaurants at half the price. This place hands down is the best. And the atmosphere and service here was as good as the food. I've never been to eat anywhere that I literally felt like I was home. I felt like I was down home at my mamaw's house. I can keep going on about this place.but you'll have to try it for yourself. There aren't enough review stars for this place! Thank you all for the best time I've ever had at a restaurant, my family and I will definitely return. ”
“ I ordered the fish sandwich and fries and here’s a few details I noticed about Rohde’s: 1) Clean restaurant 2) Family friendly 3) No extra grease on the food. Delicious! 4) The bun was buttered and grilled to a classic sandwich perfection! 5) The atmosphere was pleasant. 6) Reasonably priced too. I’ll definitely return! ”
