This year my gf and I will both be in Columbus without the relatives. I am not a cook and want to provide her with a nice Thanksgiving dinner 'take out' for two*. I am not sure what the options are, but we are only 2 people and do not need a lot of leftovers. I am not too kitchen savy and would just like to bring her a nice meal on turkey day.
Any suggestions?
*plan on just hanging out at the homestead.

I'd say maybe Kitchen Little at The North Market, but I have no idea if they're open on Thanksgiving Day or not...

There's a few discussions from years past about restaurants open on T-Day:

Might be able to find a good place to place a take-out order from, like Betty's, which has a new Fall menu:

You can preorder and pickup at Giant Eagle on Thanksgiving. I think Weiland's and Carfagna's has packages a do Hill's, but you may have to pick up the day before.
Drake Brother's mead will pair well with your dinner.

I saw some special Thanksgiving dinner options from Two Caterers posted on Facebook. I've had their food before and always been really impressed. You can find the menus here.

Bob Evans usually puts together a package for the holidays. It might be for 3-4 people. You could also check into City Barbecue. They usually smoke turkeys and hams for Thanksgiving. I think they might also do a smoked turkey breast, but I can't be certain. Top that off with some sides from the restaurant, or something prepared that you pick up at the store, and only have to heat up and you're good to go. Bob Evans can help you out there as well.
*Disclaimer* I don't work at Bob's, but my wife does. They're large, but local, their mashed potatoes in the grocery store are the best and made in Lima (most anyway). I recommend them because I really like them, not because I benefit because of their sale. I'm the type of person that wouldn't recommend something if I didn't like it. Although to be honest I really haven't tried much of their competitors.

Call Kitchen Little first. You won't find a better meal for carryout for Thanksgiving. They featured roasted turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy and roasted butternut squash the other day and it was all amazing. I know they are open the day before Thanksgiving and I bet that food would be fine reheated and better than just about anything else you could pick up that day as far as traditional food is concerned.
Betty's is also great for Thanksgiving orphans, I"m sure their takeout would be delicious. You can't go wrong with Pumpkin Love. :)

You can pick up smoked turkey from Ray Ray's on Thanksgiving 11-2pm. Not sure what sides they will have but you could supplement with sides from Hills or Weilands.
