Capitola Diner in Capitola

Shocking expensive for what it is. 11 bucks for grilled cheese? 14 bucks for pancakes? 18 bucks for a sallied? My burger and fries was almost twenty bucks and the fries were frozen grocery store grade. The burger was okay but nothing special. My wife said the chicken on the salad was good but the salad it’s self was bag grade. For a slightly run down dinner the whole thing seems nuts

I have driven past this place plenty of times and never stopped to eat here. After hearing people I know rave about the food, I had to go and see for myself. I had one of the American Classics, two eggs with hash browns and a side of bacon and salsa, which was delicious, homemade salsa. The coffee was delicious, and service was also good.I will definitely come back and try the lunch ad dinner menus as well. Check them out. They are located on 41st Ave in Capitola across from the mall.

Ordered a BLT with avocado and it was all black and rotten the waitress said I was being picky and was rude about it. I will never return as that was unacceptable! I should have made her eat it. I wish I can rate no stars!There was one server (Female) another server (Male) and another bar server (Female) . The female server that was serving for the restaurant and not the bar was very rude, even after I showed her she said they can remove the bad part and serve to me again and walked away rude and handed my bill to me after I said that I dont want anything after all. $37.00 for one cup of bean soup, bowl of Clam Chowder, fries and two cokes. I am a local and its sad because I liked eating there as the staff has always been friendly. She might be new but she lost my business and I will let others know. I paid with cash that I left on the table with a tip because I didnt want to deal with her again at the register.

We went to the diner as a work related outing for some of our elderly residents. We all had a great time over there. The food was tasty and filling. They all enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and the sizes of their orders. The Vanilla shakes were perfect too.

1st time here and absolutely will be back!! Denver skillet was delicious! Service is great with friendly servers and always on top of the table if you need anything. The fresh orange juice is bomb!! I love the fact is 100% natural!!

The telltale signs of a California businesses being squeezed to death by owners pinching pennies to maximize profit. The lights are off, the coffee is weak, the cheese is cheap, they use margarine not butter, busser is the waiter is the janitor is the manager is the immigrant the owner wants to build the wall to keep underpaid. I took a local homeless lady to breakfast and for a grilled cheese sandwich it was 10 dollars, rubbery two egg breakfast with no meat, white slimy hashed browns, and two slices of toast 12 dollars, and watery coffee 250. 30 dollars including tip for less than two whole breakfasts is a ripoff and unAmerican. Again and again the property and business owners would rather raise rent and turn the lights off and operate a facade of a business than scale down their profit expectations and support their employees and customers. Heaven forbid we have breakfast equity.

GREAT food and great service!!! We are so incredibly happy we chose this place to have breakfast. Their food is delicious and flavorful, look no more, stop here!

Sad sad place.Smell of raw sewage permeates the whole place, it’s especially bad near the kitchen and bathrooms.Honestly, disgusting, horrible food, tables are dirty, the whole place is dirty. Feeling bad for wait staff that is working here. Not sure why I even ordered any food here.. big mistake, waste of money and time.Do not recommend, stay away from this place.

My husband and I were traveling and wanted a quick dinner without paying a fortune. The food was great and the service was excellent.

My wife and I got the patty melt and the French dip. Cole slaw was pretty lackluster, and the krinkle-cut fries were not really done to a crisp on the outside perfection. So that was really disappointing. However, it was the BEST patty melt we had ever had, with a juicy patty, perfectly melted cheese, and wonderful grilled onions on not too powerful rye bread. Perfection! The French dip was decent after getting past a few bites of dry beef; the rest of it was quite tasty with good jus and nice horseradish on the side, and the bread just about right!We would return for those same items again.
