- CChadvipColumbus •49 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWendy, is this one of our favorite restaurants! The shrimp with Angel hair pasta dish is my personal favorite, as is the lobster bisque. The service is always excellent as are the beverages.  if you can hit the patio on a nice weather day, it is one of the nicest in the city.

- TGTimGColumbus •3 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoCap City is a great restaurant that consistently offers great food, great service, and great value for the items offered. We had the warm pretzel appetizer, which was delightful, and I had a bowl of clam chowder, which was excellent. Our server, Stephanie, was excellent. We had two of our grandchildren with us, and she gave them great attention and made them feel special. I can't wait to go back.More infoCap City Fine Diner & Bar - GrandviewPrice: Moderate• American• Grandview Heights•4.8
- DDougBaltimore / Maryland •2 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoHad a great evening with exceptional service by Alex and very good food. We had the curry mussels, tater tots, baked oysters and Harbor salad. All were quite unique and very tasty. We especially enjoyed the Harbor salad which we split among the table. We also had the punch bowl which was a nice drink option but required some extra effort to finish despite splitting between 4 of us. Probably better for a party of 6. Overall it was a great evening at The Pearl.More infoThe Pearl - Short NorthPrice: Expensive• Gastro Pub• Short North - Arena District•4.7
