The food was great, if not for my soggy sweet potato fries, it would be perfect! The fries were still good though, just not exactly crispy! I got the Juicy Lucy and it WAS juicy. The horseradish-ish sauce added a nice kick and it was super cheesy. My partner got the bacon cheeseburger and it was basically the best burger she's ever had. Our waitress, Smiley, was so attentive and kind. She even gave us a dessert for our celebration of coming there because of my partner's new graduate degree! We got the lemon crusted cheesecake and oh my gosh it was BEYOND with the tart cherries!! (Note that the photos of the cheesecake is the one slice cut in half) We were seated outside on the patio- and there was no need to be worried about a sunburn- it was nice and covered with still a great view of the street and beautiful flowers lining the exterior. We will definitely come again, what a treat! read more

Disappointed in the service. First time here at this location and it was not the same elevated experience as the Olentangy/Grandview location. We had a cousin in from out of town and met up with him and his coworker. My partner picked Cap City due to the brand reputation and food. We made a 1:30pm Lunch reservation via OpenTable. We were warmly greeted upon arrival. Inside was immaculate and inviting with an upscale vibe. The food was, of course, delicious. The overall service was slow and it was a smaller table for four (we should have been in a booth) so the pacing of the dishes were off to start. Rolls didn't come to the very end because we had apps and then main dishes. When I had asked about the rolls, as I thought they forgot, I was told they just had not been out yet since we did not have room on the table. Also, we weren't really attended to and didn't see the server hardly at all, with long times without being checked on. That's the easy summary on service. I am sure it was an off day for the server or just the time of day. It wasn't terrible just below expectations for the price point. Back to food, my partner and I started with the Blue Cheese Chips, I enjoyed the Meat Loaf Dinner, and he ordered the Eggs Benedict w/Crab. Rolls at the end. We found street parking on Riverside but there is a parking garage near the front entrance. This really should be a 3 star review with the service aspect but going with 4 as the entire party enjoyed every bite. I would recommend and the food and company made the lunch! read more

Great service and very attentive. Clean atmosphere. Was able to sit outside during Easter and everything was clean. Shared the blue cheese chips and ordered the crab cake Benedict. Honestly amazing crab cake, I was pleasantly surprised. The egg was poached perfectly. Only complaint was that it comes with a side salad...which is just lettuce with a lemony vinaigrette, but it was my fault for not asking for a side of potatoes. My partner got the breakfast burrito, and it was also great. I am not normally a chorizo person but it was used extremely well, and mot overly salty. Portions sizes were perfect for us to eat and still have some leftover the next morning. read more

We enjoy coming to this location. We brought our Cali friends and everyone enjoyed themselves. We had the fish and chips and they were huge! Our little guy with us was snuggled up with his ipad eating the best grilled cheese he has ever had. Drinks were good, and service is good as usual. We love sitting in the big booths. Hopefully one day soon we can enjoy the patio. read more

Still enjoy this spot at Bridge Park and their house made chips. I went for lunch this time and had the Caesar salad topped with salmon. Service was slow despite the fact they weren't busy. read more

I ordered the green Chili Cheeseburger and it was spectacular. The fruit was OK. Of course it looked pretty but unripe honeydew melon is not an asset to any fruit salad. It's easy to tell, too, It's hard and has no taste so note to the kitchen: use something else - anything else - besides hard unripe honeydew. But that was the only downside to the dinner. Our waiter was actually pretty amazing: he didn't even need to write anything down and he remembered everything perfectly. We all got our correct orders and correct checks. read more

Went to the Dublin cap city after many years! We went around 2:30pm for a late lunch, and the restaurant was very quiet and chill, which I loved, and the service was excellent. The food was divine and really hit the spot. The Philly cheesesteak was so tender and flavorful, and the lava cake killed me and sent me to heaven. I will definitely keep cap city higher on my list of places to go! read more

I went here to just get dessert and it's a really cool vibe. The ambiance is old style city diner. I was greeted and got my order taken quickly by the hostess. Really didn't have to wait too long to get my slice of carrot cake. Carrying it back to my hotel was hard. It weighed a lot. The cake is a very healthy piece. I had just eaten at another Cameron Mitchel restaurant and since they did not have e any desserts I wanted the waitress there recommended I go to Cap City. Now one of my all time favorite carrot cakes is ocean primes. The cap city is totally different. It's very dense and not moist. It overall had a good flavor. The icing is pretty thick and almost like fondant. Overall I'll try and eat Ed's again but probably will avoid the carrot cakes read more

I've had a few visits to this diner after being introduced to it by one of my kids who loves it. Have had top notch service each time. It's clean, inviting, and nicely decorated. I've been there when they're almost empty and also when they're slammed with people. Interestingly, it's not very noisy even when they are packed. The ambience is very cool, retro, and at the Dublin location to my eye it looks a bit masculine - like a classic car with its mix of red leather, chrome & glass. The booth seats are very comfortable! But we go out to eat for the food, and here that is the apex of the experience! All but one of the items I've tried have been exceptional. The burgers are terrific - well seared and juicy with soft and delicious seeded buns, the seafood is superbly fresh & well prepared, the fried chicken is some of the best I've had anywhere - succulent, juicy and flavorful meat with a shatteringly crispy breading that melts instantly when you begin chewing. I don't know how they get that coating to work like that, but it is SO GOOD! The sides are also excellently prepared and fresh. So many places just overlook the value of great sides, but here they are sometimes one of the best parts of the meal. The desserts are to die for, and the coffee is rich and flavorful. The only thing I've had that wasn't to my taste was, of all things, the meatloaf! It's a diner, so I expected their A+ game with this, even though I almost never order meatloaf when dining out because most places can't match my expectation for it to taste like - or better than - homemade. As I've experienced in other restaurants, the meatloaf here comes off as very processed. It was a fine grind and compressed. It hit my palate more like thick sliced lunch meat than meatloaf. I had the meatloaf sandwich, so maybe that was my mistake and I would have enjoyed it more as a true entree, served with their excellent mashed potatoes and gravy. The rest of the sandwich was superb; Texas Toast was perfectly crispy and buttery, with fresh crispy lettuce, and ripe flavorful tomatoes. Overall, my dining experiences at Cap City Dublin have been superb, and I count the meatloaf as just another example of why I usually don't order this item when dining out. Some things won't overcome our own homemade expectations, and this is often the case with that particular dish for me - although I did believe if any place could do it this one would. There are so many other menu items done perfectly that this would never dissuade me from returning again & again, which is exactly what I will continue to do, as Cap City Diner is a shining example of excellence in food preparation and presentation, interior design, menu, and service. read more

You know, I've been to Cap City at least 4 times now, and each time I find myself wondering why locals seem to like it so much. Is it the Cameron Mitchell name? is it nostalgia? Is it the service? Okay the service here is actually really great, the waiters and waitresses are responsive, quick, and friendly. The diner vibe is cool, somewhat moody lighting, loud, but clean. My issue is the food. I can't seem to find anything there I like. The calamari is typically a safe starter for me, this time though, it was mushy. I've ordered the pork twice and it's just a little too sweet for me. The burgers were fine, my fries were cold and stale, they did make me a new batch but they were also stale. The beef kabobs are okay, not terrible, not great, just..fine. The least picky eater of the family wound up not finishing his dish and opting to not take it home either. Make of that what you will. read more

4.5 Found good reviews and went in to try for the first time. Ordered some cocktails and apps and split the meatloaf dinner. The new pizza rolls were really good; however, it is a loaf form that pulls apart. Warm pretzel was great but I personally did not care for their version of honey mustard. The place was busy but Joe, waiter, was attentive. Plenty of seating. Clean. Cool vibe. Portions of meatloaf were huge; even split. Recommend!! read more

Had such a great time catching up with old friends that I forgot to take more pictures! The cocktails were refreshing, and my burger was delicious and humongous! This would be a great place to bring hungry teens. Our waitress was great and brought us rolls when the food was delayed. The whole place gives old fashion diner with a modern bar kind of twist. Great for families or friends. read more

The service was amazing, Kori C took excellent care of us! She did an amazing job taking special care of my friend with serious allergies, and making sure everything was extra safe for her.

There are many options for menu items that are allergy friendly, and they have gluten free rolls and alcohol free mocktails so everyone can participate in a nice meal even with food restrictions! read more

The Triple Decker Grilled Cheese at Cap City in Dublin is exactly what a comfort-food classic should be: bold, unapologetic, and downright satisfying. This isn't your childhood grilled cheese; it's a full-blown grown-up indulgence stacked high with melted cheese, smoky bacon, and perfectly toasted bread that hits that golden-brown sweet spot between buttery crisp and soft interior. The sandwich in the photo looks thick, hearty, and beautifully assembled, with the bacon adding that salty crunch that cuts through the richness. The cheese is generous, oozing just enough to remind you why you ordered it... and the lettuce adds a faint, welcome freshness without getting in the way of the main attraction. Paired with a pile of crisp fries and a side of ketchup, it's the kind of plate that lands in front of you and instantly makes your day better. Cap City knows how to take a diner classic and elevate it without overcomplicating it. Verdict: If you want a grilled cheese that's big, indulgent, and downright fun to eat, this Triple Decker is a winner. Perfect for a cold Ohio day, a cheat-meal craving, or anytime you just want to treat yourself. read more

My new favorite spot, a bit in the pricey side for what kind of food it is but it's very good none the less. Hosts and waiters are very friendly and helpful, ambiance is a cool retro diner feel and the food reflects that. Very delicious. Would go and will be going again. (The cheesesteak sandwich is one of the best I've had) read more

Amazing food and attentive staff. Our mistake was sitting outside for dinner on a warm spring day. The evening was cooler than we expected. We asked our server to turn in the overhead heat lamps. Our son ordered the fish and chips. In his opinion, the fish eats bland. I peeled off the breading, ate the cod and thought it was wonderful. I also enjoyed his side of slaw. Creamy with a hint if tang. It was yummy. I ordered the Black and Blue Salmon Salad. Thd fish was blackened, the salad served with blue cheese crumbles and blue cheese dressing. It was delicious! Sorry, no pictures. My husband wasnt feeling well and I was distracted by my 2 guys. read more

Had dinner here last night . Wed is always a good night as it's half off bottle of wine . I had the Beef tenderloin kabobs which was pretty good , there was two kabobs and I brought one home as I got full . I ate to much of the calamari which was really good . Got the coconut almond milkshake which was really good but could use a little more vodka in it . A very nice evening with my daughter who had the BBQ pork chops which she said was alittle over cooked which made then alittle dry. Cianna was our server and was very nice and attentive read more

We ate in the patio which was heated and surprisingly comfortable on a 10 degree night. Service was excellent and so was the food! We started with wings that were huge and excellent, calamari and the nacho chips with a blue cheese (?) queso. The meatloaf was a hit. I had the Philly cheese and the Tuesday special chicken pot pie was excellent. Portioned to not worry! The finale was the brownie sundae which was good but the show stopper was the huge piece of carrot cake! Great spot here in Dublin. Highly recommend! read more

From the very start, the service was bad. Something as simple as asking for lemons with the water set her off. Then we ordered a pretzel as an appetizer, and it came out--no joke--30 minutes after we ordered it. Once we started ordering off the menu, every single question was met with attitude. If you asked for a substitute, it came with sass from the waitress. The final straw was when she had an attitude with my elderly grandmother, who simply asked if she could bring us a few more butters with the rolls. For some reason, any request caused the waitress to respond with a nasty look or comment. Please save yourself from this experience and go somewhere else. read more

Fun atmosphere, good food, delicious desserts, but what really stood out to our table of 16 was the amazing job our waitress, Kori C did!!!

Ehhh. I love me a good quiche & was soooo happy to try out Cap City's however i was disappointed :/ if you've ever had Lindeys quiche ... the two don't even begin to compare. Besides the mid quiche, the restroom was a little scary and def needs some up keeping. The server was amazing tho and the wait time/ experience itself was a good one. I would maybe just order another brunch item next time and try out a diff location out of the Cap City's in Cbus. read more

Horrible horrible customer service. And it all starts at the top. Came in on a Wednesday at 11:30 to pick up a pie I had preorderd. The host talked to some guy in a suit and reported back it would be just a minute. I proceeded to watch suit do a rah rah session with the uniforms before hudling up in a football break, well after the opening time for the restaurant. In the interim, the small lobby has become packed with people waiting for a seat. Suit finally comes back to me and walks into the cooler for my pie. Emerges 10 seconds later, pie in hand, but physically challenged on how to construct the carry out box. He defers to a pizza box when I suggest he relook at how he interprets customer service from the customer's point of view. He could have had me out of the store 15 minutes ago! Plus, a lobby full of people waiting while he's got the hired help in a huddle meeting tucked away in a back dining room we can all see isn't good optics. He makes an excuse that it was just his routine morning chat, when I suggest he move it up 10 minutes so the crew is ready when you open the doors. He said he did start it 10 minutes early and looks at me like I have 2 heads. This guy's got more excuses than a felon going to jail! He closes with 'Would you like to pay for the pie now?' I ate at a Cameron Mitchell restaurant last time I was in town, the Avenue. The customer experience was outstanding! Please take your management training programs to all of your locations and teach these people that being nice and pleasant isn't good enough! read more

We went to Cap City Diner for our 30th anniversary. It has some sentimental value for us and while we wanted it to be special, we like the casual atmosphere. I made sure to note that it was our anniversary because the previous year, we spent our anniversary at Valentino's and had such attentive waitstaff, ending the evening with a celebratory dessert to share. This experience was nothing like that, as we were essentially ignored by our waitress and our anniversary wasn't acknowledged in any way. The food was fine, but it arrived later (and colder) than expected. The lack of service was unfortunate and put a damper on the whole evening. It might not seem like a big deal; maybe we were just spoiled by the experience from Valentinos. Anyway, the food is okay (even lukewarm, it was fine), but they certainly don't make the evening feel special. If you are celebrating anything, you may want to try somewhere else. read more
