Since beginning its operation in 1995, Starliner Diner has been a local favorite to consumers in the Hilliard community and beyond.

This one of a kind restaurant is most often celebrated for its breakfast, and has won several awards including Best Breakfast in Columbus, Best Hangover Breakfast in Columbus, and Best Diner in Columbus as voted on by the readers of Columbus Monthly. Columbus Alive, and 614 Columbus. Be Sure to visit this Hilliard area staple and see what everyone is talking about!

    Excellent food! Selections were unique and tasty. Pricing was reasonable. Our one issue was that it took one hour and fifteen minutes from ordering our food to having it served. I understood later that they were short some kitchen help--and I understand that they had no control over this; however, we only were told this after an hour, and only when I asked. Perhaps a free appetizer, or a 5% discount, or even just telling us at the beginning so we could decide if we wanted to wait or stay would have been nice, especially since we had a reservation. Food was good enough to alllllmost be worth the wait-- kudos to the cook!

    We arrived early enough to be the first to request sitting outdoors, so we had the area all to ourselves! I had the single Chili Relleno (delish), cup of chili (delish!) and the Vera Cruz Salad. The salad was not as tasty as I was expecting having only 4-5 very thin slices of avocado, "store-bought" tomatoes and barely any of the lime/olive oil dressing. My husband had the Cajun Jambalaya which was a hefty dinner which he enjoyed. Server was very attentive.
