Locals with a severe sweet tooth could say that the 1989 meeting of then-hotel management student Anand Saha and Austrian pastry chef-trainee/future-wife Doris Tinter was rather serendipitous. With a shared dream of owning their own business, the pair moved to Columbus in 1995 to merge their talents in the kitchen and their love for classical music in a small café they called Mozart's. Mozart's offers a range of Eastern European-inspired breakfast, lunch and dinner options - think veal, schnitzels, quiches and Hungarian goulash. But where the Sahas really strike a note is the more than 80 types of pastries and desserts. Imagine: cannolis, scones and petit fours; rum balls, éclairs and cream horns; fruit tartlets and croissants stuffed with every sinful filling in the book.
Kids' menu. Full bar. Serving breakfast and lunch Tue-Sun, dinner Tue-Sat. High tea 2-4 pm Tue-Sun. Closed Mon.
"OK, Mozart's dessert expertise is no big secret (try the beautifully crusted European coffee cake made with walnuts, marzipan and raspberry jam; for something richer, try the Viennese hotel special called the Sacher Torte - like a multi-layered, thickly frosted chocolate cake with leavening apricot jam in it). But did you know that Mozart's excels at some savory dishes, too? I'm a fan of their version of Goulash and, especially, their Wiener Schnitzel."- G.A. Benton, Crave
