Seating: Table was clean but awkward seating placement. Pretty slow day on a Wednesday. The wine: I got the basic marrlow Wine. It has sat for a while. Slightly separated with a hint of bitter. It smells fresh. Slight cranberry flavor but mostly tastes like it hd sat hu hasnt aged. Doesn't slide down easily, definitely a sipping wine. Would be paired well with a chicken, or something light to contrast the dark undertones of the wine. Service and atmosphere: Asked about allergies. Asked about getting me a special wllergy safe menue. New her menu very well. Good scenery. Nice sense of music. There is a mix of dark subitiabilty mixed. It gives outdoor Deck well still having the comfortably of a high end diner. Very hotel esk. Service was attendant and open. As well as quick moving. Air ventilation is good Waiter also left The food: Asked for medium, god medium well. Not the worst for a burger, but would be worried about a steak. Burger is very well made. The bread for being gluten free held up quite well and it was seasoned very good. One of the best I've had. Upelled me on desert, the experience was so good I took it. I am looking forward too trying this. Better menu options then ford's garage as far as gluten free or allergy safe options go. The penutbutter pie: may I just say I was delighted. The airy light sweetness of this pie was one of the best I've ever had, glute free or not. The texture was smooth yet every bite felt varied in a wonderful way only penutbutter can do. It was also very ohio. Reminiscent of the buckies desert tht ohio is known for. The presentation was mouthwatering and it was well deserved. The chocolate sauce felt fresh, sweet, and well placed. The nuts where fresh (ive had many where the nuts where stale) and well placed. My only downside to this pie was the spray on wipcream, which if swapped for homemade would make this pie double the price, but award winning. Overall rating 4.0/ 5

Wow… really enjoyed our visit. Jeremy, our server/bar tender was AWESOME. Great personality, helpful, responsive. Then there was the food!! We each had drink, the margarita and the rum runner. Delicious and strong! Glad we were walking back to the hotel! We ordered the Tamarind wings, and the kabobs. The wings had a nice spice to them, and the kabobs were flavorful and tender! I was VERY impressed there was a separate dedicated gluten friendly menu. It was extensive!! I really wanted to try the GF BEER BATTERED fish because you never see that on the menus! I just knew it would be a huge portion. Thank you Cap Diner for having it!! Next time… We did take dessert back to the room. There is a GF selection daily and many others to choose from. I had the GF peanut butter pie and hubby had the chocolate cake! Both were delicious. I highly recommend eating here and hopefully, you’ll be lucky enough to get Jeremy!!!

I will NEVER stop thinking about those tamarind chicken wings. As someone who lives gluten free, I am truly grateful for the variety of delicious and safe food options provided here. One thing to note is that Service could use some improvement when considering the restaurant had just opened. French fries were also cold and tasted frozen. Our waiter wasn't fast with our refills nor did they seem like they cared about my group very much. The atmosphere is very nice and the location is great for students. I will have to come back someday, and I would recommend this restaurant to others (especially celiacs) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
