Get directionsHaving been a “loyal customer” since they opened, we were sad when we recently moved to be full time residents in Florida and lost are favorite dinning place. This past Thursday, February the 20th, I traveled back to visit a close friend and thought why not stop by the Ghost Writer for dinner, a cocktail and see the crew. I was totally shocked, blown away and startled when I walked through the front door! What followed was a terrible experience! The “top notch”, Five Star restaurant that presented such an outstanding menu, d... read more
Nice quiet date-might atmosphere but that’s where it ends. Not greeted upon arrival but sat in various locations of the restaurant hoping to be served. Finally placed a drink order after 40-minutes because it was hard to attend to all patrons at 4:15!?! Food was less than mediocre, so sad to see such a great place shift to less than desirable.

They completely overhauled the menu, and now it’s just a handful of sides, appetizers, and sandwiches—most of which are just different variations of grilled cheese. It feels really limited compared to what they used to offer. On top of that, they remodeled the space, and while it looks nice, the new tables are so small that it’s actually difficult to eat comfortably
It's hard not to eulogize what Ghostwriter used to be. The former was a gem of central Ohio—upscale farm to table from scratch kitchen with a rotating menu with a vibe that would stand out anywhere in Columbus but even more so that it is in Johnstown. Clearly not a sustainable concept, the pivot to something more casual will sting for those who came to love the former. Now, the food is outclassed by the decor and I couldn't stop myself from trying to imagine what was lost by change. Truly ghosts haunt this place now. I hope ... read more
This is an incredible location for a quick bite or drinks with friends. Update for February 2025: We were admittedly pretty surprised when we stepped since the changes because the entire environment felt much different, not necessarily bad. They basically restructured how they are running things to better match the client demand. This place is much more relaxed, go-grab-drinks-with-friends type of place. I love it! The menu is smaller but still had my favorites. I really like how they added several spinoff pool tables in the... read more
