Chef Jonathon Sawyer Opening Columbus Restaurant in Partnership With Jason Kipnis and Forward Hospitality Group

Busy bee chef Jonathon Sawyer will be opening a Columbus restaurant in partnership with Indians' second baseman Jason Kipnis and the Forward Hospitality Group, which owns and operates FWD, Magnolia, Bell and Flower and a Flipside.

Sawyer will add that outpost to his portfolio that includes Greenhouse Tavern and Noodlecat in Westlake. He'll also be opening an as-of-yet unnamed and undefined concept in the Van Aken district at some point this year. Earlier this year he shuttered Trentina, his ambitious tasting menu restaurant in University Circle.
