Food was not very good. Lacks taste. Ordered cheeseburgers. The bun used is very cheap and breaks apart once you pick it up. The weight of burger is not supported and has a stale like taste to it. The burger itself is just a heavy slab of meat and not very appealing. While eating the staff decided it was a good idea to clean the floors of closed section. So we were able to have the nasuating smell of cleaning products while we eat. Why would you clean while people are eating? Totally unacceptable. This was our first and last time eating here. Do not recommend.

I had such a great experience at Columbus Diner! The French toast with bananas and strawberries was absolutely delicious, perfectly sweet and fresh. The bacon was crispy to perfection, just how I like it. On top of the amazing food, the service was great!

This is one of my favorite diner to visit. The food is delicious, the staff is very polite and the atmosphere is great. I have never had a bad experience since I have been going there. I love going with the whole family or at times with just me and my husband. Either is always a great time. The place is a good size restaurant, intimate and cozy. The have have a good amount of parking available. I highly recommend this place.

4/16/25 1030 am — I am a diner hopper. This was my first visit to Columbus Diner. Thank you for the Southern Hospitality and Greek Charm. We had the Salisbury Steak special. Every thing was prepared fresh and portions are plentiful. We had enough for brunch and Dinner. Specifically loved the spinach, creamed corn soup, minestrone soup, mixed veggies, garlic bread, and little soft pillows of Salisbury steaks. We took home our chocolate cake and lemon meringue pie. Did I mention the coffee was perfect?! Definitely plan on a second visit to try their pancakes. Recommend for small and large groups, family atmosphere and handicapped friendly. Thank you for the good first impression from this family owned diner.
