We love Cap City. Have gone to the Dublin location and Grandview and enjoy them both. The menu has something for everyone. Our family favorites are the Calamari for an appetizer, Burger, Club sandwich, Bbq Chopped Salad and Spicy Chicken Plaza. Food quality is always consistent and solid portions.

Great spot to catch a game in Columbus. They don’t have bouncers which is the only downside, some drunk tried to hit my father in law for cheering for Texas A&M (who Ohio State needed to win to boost their ranking). There was not a bouncer to assist but myself and a few other guys successfully put him on the street. Food and service are great!
