Sono Wood Fired Columbus

Description

Let me tell you about one of Columbus’s newest culinary gems that’s making waves at Easton Town Center. As a Chicago transplant myself, I was thrilled when Sono Wood Fired announced their first-ever expansion outside the Windy City. This place absolutely nails the essence of Tuscan cuisine while adding their own contemporary twist.

The moment you step inside, you’re greeted by the unmistakable aroma of wood-fired delights and the warm glow of their centerpiece hearth. The ambiance strikes that perfect balance between upscale dining and comfortable atmosphere – exactly what you want for both special occasions and casual nights out.

Best Time to Visit

From my multiple visits, I’ve found that weekday evenings between 5:30-7:00 PM offer the sweet spot for scoring a table without too much wait. But honestly? The energy during peak weekend dinner hours is pretty special – just be prepared to wait a bit. If you’re looking for a more relaxed experience, their weekend lunch service is your best bet. The restaurant really comes alive during happy hour, especially Thursday and Friday evenings when the bar area buzzes with both locals and shoppers taking a well-deserved break.

How to Get There

You’ll find Sono Wood Fired in Easton Town Center’s North District. If you’re driving, the most convenient parking is in the garage near the North District entrance. Coming from downtown Columbus? It’s a straight shot up I-270. Using ride-share services like Uber or Lyft is also super convenient, especially if you’re planning to explore their impressive wine list. And yeah, during peak shopping seasons, you might wanna give yourself a few extra minutes to navigate the Easton traffic – trust me on this one.

Tips for Visiting

Listen, I’m gonna let you in on some insider tips that’ll make your visit even better. First off, their happy hour menu is a total steal – I always try to snag a spot at the bar around 4:30 PM to take advantage of it. The pizzas are sized perfectly for sharing, but don’t sleep on their pasta dishes – especially the house-made options.

Make reservations if you can, particularly for weekend dinner service. The restaurant uses a digital reservation system, and I’ve found booking 3-4 days ahead usually does the trick. If you’re a wine enthusiast, chat with their sommeliers – they seriously know their stuff and can recommend some amazing Italian wines you might not have tried before.

For the best experience, come with a group of 4-6 people. This way, you can order family-style and try more dishes. And speaking of ordering, start with their antipasti – it sets the tone for the whole meal. Oh, and save room for dessert – their tiramisu is honestly some of the best I’ve had outside of Italy.

During warmer months, request outdoor seating if available. The patio offers a lovely atmosphere for both lunch and dinner, plus it’s perfect for people-watching while enjoying your meal. Just remember that patio seating is first-come, first-served, so timing is everything if you’re hoping to dine al fresco.
