Restaurant Week kicks off in Columbus from Jan. 20-25.

Central Ohio has seen the restaurant growth over the last few years, with places that are offering more options for those who want gluten-free, vegan or vegetarian dishes.

But for Restaurant Week, they plan to see even more people new customers who haven't yet checked out this newer spot in the Short North.

Director of Operations for Peerless Management Group Adam Solomon says they invite everyone to discover their extensive wine list and taste their shareable menu, no matter what they eat.

That means offering vegan and vegetarian options.

"Really what we try to do is make vegetarian or vegan dishes that everyone will eat," Solomon said.

Solomon and chef Mike Koenig look at trends, use what's in season and get creative.

New to their menu is a fried cauliflower with a curry sauce, along with other vegan options like squash noodles and Elote.

Now more than ever, Solomon says the restaurant business requires being more open-minded, not only to different tastes but also to people's diets.
