    I came here with my cousin to celebrate her birthday. Im usually a Ruth Chris kind of girl. I was SOOOO pleasantly surprised by a dessert that I love and is rarely made to my liking. They had the absolute BEST creme brûlée ive ever had in my life. I learned that the pastry chef has been there many years and makes the creme brûlée herself everyday. HOW AWESOME IS THAT!?

    Service is always impeccable at the Capital Grille. The new 3-6 pm happy hour includes a lite bite menu. We had some hits (lamb chops, wow!) and some misses (crab cake was fishy) They have a great menu of wines by the glass. Comfy bar chairs and friendly staff make it welcoming whether you come alone or with friends. They surprised me with this birthday dessert. I don't normally eat sugar but we ate every delicious bite, so tasty, not too sweet.

    This was my first time experience at The Capital Grille. Located in the city of Boca Raton and it is an American restaurant chain. It's an upscale steakhouse owned by the Darden brand. It was definitely an elegant and elite restaurant experience. I had the Chef recommendation which was the Kona Crusted Dry Aged Bone-In NY Strip with Shallot butter. It had a signature Hawaiian Kona coffee rub on the outside and the cuts are carved on premises. The flavor was so unique and delicious plus grilled to perfection. The interior decor was elegant with dim lighting that created a relaxing atmosphere. The service was superb. Everything was brought out hot and fresh. It did take awhile for the food to come out which gave me a chance to enjoy every sip of the wine even more. If course the prices are up there. À la carte items are served for the table which are a larger portion. Hopefully I will back soon to enjoy another nice meal.

    I thought I already left a note for this, but this place was amazing! I was so excited that we were able to try out their front room as we are typically in the dining room. Instead, when we arrived, the two of us were whisked away in front of the bar towards the front of the restaurant. It was so quiet back there, such a contrast to the bustling restaurant. Waiter we had was terrific, very friendly and informative without being pushy, and very attentive. We were delighted to eat the special of the day along with a bottle of wine and cheesecake to go. Everything here was done very professionally, making us feel special,, although for what we were paying, we'd better feel special! All in all a great place

    I had to run some errands at the mall and stopped in. We were a party of 3 and walked in without a reservation. We were seated right away. Service was great. The server came by several times to make sure we were okay. The food was worth it. The experience was a great one as well. The mashed potatoes were super creamy. The desserts were delicious but my favorite was the creme brulee with the berries.

    4.5 Stars... Better than Good (4), wouldn't say Great (5). I've been to many of their locations around the country... as a chain I think they are one of the best. Boca is very good. Stopped in for their Waygu and Wine promotion. Their burgers have always been good, I also like their Capital Burger spinoff in Boston. I had the Wagyu Blue Cheese and Black Truffle Burger with Cabernet Onions, served with French Fries. The wine I selected was a Cabernet from Orin Swift called Palermo. The burger was very good, fries just ok... here, Sam's Mashed is my favorite potato dish. Started with a perfectly made and excellent Margarita. While the Burgers are very good.. and a good promo, I prefer their main menu with Crab, Steaks, Lamb Chops, Sides, etc. Planned a real dinner here, so stay tuned. Service in the bar is very good, professional, friendly, proper.

    Great time and good company! I'd always heard about the steaks at The Capital Grille and finally tried them and they did not disappoint. Stopped in for lunch with a couple of drinks (homemade grapefruit soda and lemonade were both excellent). The bread came out warm and fresh. We ordered the filet mignon and the dry-aged NY strip , both cooked perfectly medium, good and balanced seasoning .The sides were creamy mashed potatoes and truffle fries. The mashed potatoes were so creamy and delicious. Service was excellent, attentive and right on time. Finished with an espresso and a cheesecake with fresh fruit, which was a perfect ending. The vibe is elegant yet comfortable, with classic décor, paintings, and a warm atmosphere. Definitely a place worth coming back to! Pricing is definitely on the higher side (around $130 for two), but you get what you pay for here , great steaks, excellent service, and a classy atmosphere.

    The food was superb as we have found in other Capital Grilles; actually it couldn't be better. On the other hand, the service was very disappointing. On the positive side...for a starter, I had the calamari. It was prepared in a unique way with sweet peppers & the proper amount of crisp. Perfect . The wedge salad was spot-on. The bacon topping was very unique: meaty without fat and just the proper amount of dressing. The filet was cooked to perfection and tender. The best. For dessert, the lemon coconut (can't recall the name) was delightful! Now the service.... We pointed out to each other at the onset that the service was superb, but found that the server's great personality was what seemed to fool us. He turned out to be a bumpkin. When you pay a premium for food, one expects premium service. The server made a few unfortunate errors. - first, he was replacing an empty glass of iced tea and spilled the FULL glass onto my wife's blouse and dress shorts...a complete full glass! Ok, things happen, but it took what seemed too long for him to return with cloth napkins to soak it up. There was just too much mess, so a few minutes later we asked for another table. We were accommodated. Unbelievably, no manager came by to apologize. - we asked for more bread before the salads came out. The server related he would bring some. Bus-sers brought the salads, but no bread. We thought that the waiter would be bringing it, but it never came. We ate our salads without bread & reminded the waiter of this. What would we have done if my wife's clothes were ruined? There was no report as no manager came. Fortunately, the cleaner was able to get the stains out. She was soaked though. The food again was delicious. Service, not so much.

    I've heard great things about this place. They did not disappoint. The service was excellent the food was delicious. The area was very calm relaxing and comfortable. They are pricey BUT every item is well worth it. The steak was perfectly made and seasoned. The truffle fries were so good. The crab/lobster cake was amazing. Everything was great.

    This was Saturday night at 6 pm. We had a reservation. We had our car valet for $10 because the Town Center parking lot was packed. This was well worth it at this time. The lobby was packed with patrons but we got seated immediately in a small booth in the bar area. They have two overhead TVs and the football games were being viewed. It was a fun and lively crowd. What could be better than watching football with like-minded people while eating and drinking fabulous food? I believe Tammi was our waitress. She was extremely attentive and professional. We started with drinks and a crab and lobster cake appetizer to share. It was lovely! Then we shared a porterhouse steak - perfect temperature with mushrooms and loaded baked potato. We did indulge in a coconut custard pie. It has beautiful presentation but it wasn't what I expected and I didn't love it. But the coffee and latte hit the spot. Capitol Grill is still a top steakhouse and not to be overlooked.

    Dinner with work colleagues, 12/3/24. Overall fantastic experience, Capital Grille never disappoints. I enjoyed the sliced filet topped with crab meat and shared sides of asparagus and roasted mushrooms. All 3 entrees were amazing and the custom cocktails were delicious!

    What a great early dinner we had. We sat at the bar and were served by the fabulously attentive, Elias. He makes a mean house special Stoli-Doli and an impressive Baileys Espresso Martini. We knew we were off to a great start. We ordered the Caesar salad and split it in two. It's HUGE! we the. Had our main courses. I had the filet with mushrooms and fig glaze (it comes with onions but I ordered without). It was amazing. What a lovely combination of flavors to combine with a perfectly cooked and sliced fillet. This has become a go to for me. That steak melted like butter and I highly recommend. I will be thinking of that brilliant fig glaze for days. My hubby had the veal chop with Marsala. This thing was huge and also cooked to perfection. It was perfectly seasoned and my hubby ended up picking up the chop by the bone to make sure he got it all (not typical behavior for him but it was THAT good). We also ordered a side of lobster Mac n cheese. Just get it and thank me later. We've been to quite a few Capital Grille locations and the Boca Raton location holds itself to a higher standard than any other Capital Grille I have been to when it comes to service, ambiance and food. This location has restored my faith and we will be back again and again. For dessert, the coconut cream pie. Yeah, yeah, they are famous for their cheesecake. I challenge the cheesecake myth bc I don't like coconut and had three spoonfuls of this gorgeous and delectable pie. Get ready to share bc, like most items at Capital Grille, there's plenty to go around. Don't let any other location drive you away. Go to Boca and experience the excellence.

    Burnt steak, cooked medium well instead of medium rare. Flavorless, not juicy at all.

Unfortunately, someone in management apparently looked at a perfectly good menu item that customers actually enjoyed and thought, "You know what? Let's get rid of that." The potatoes were the reason I came back. Crispy, flavorful, and somehow capable of making any meal better. Now they're gone, replaced by disappointment and confusion. I asked if they would be coming back and was told to write a review. For now, it seems these potatoes have been permanently exiled for reasons known only to the menu gods. The rest of the meal was fine, but it's hard to enjoy anything when you're mourning the loss of what was clearly the star of the show. Removing your best side dish is a bold strategy. Let's see if it pays off. Until the potatoes return, I'll likely be spending my dining budget at establishments that haven't declared war on happiness.

Although it has a beautiful menu of wines and spirits, we stuck to their filtered water, and asked KC for any recommendations for lunch. He was very engaging, a wonderful communicator, and we made our selections which started with the bacon wrapped dates (YUM). Prior to my order, I mentioned a dietary restriction and KC promptly went to the kitchen to make an inquiry. I ordered the trout with lentil ragout, and my husband ordered a margarita pizza. The atmosphere was very peaceful, with unintrusive music, and we really did enjoy getting to know KC as he made sure that we were satisfied with every plate. This restaurant is upscale, yet with value pricing. Altogether, my husband and I encourage you to enjoy a lovely meal, and make sure to ask for KC! You won't be disappointed!

It was alright and probably not something I'd order again, but it did feel light and healthy. We also got the Truffle Risotto Arancini. It was pretty mid. We felt there was too much aioli and wished they had added another ball or something else to the starter to make it feel more complete. For the entrée, we got the Filet Mignon. That was really good. Both of our steaks were cooked to perfection, and the mashed potatoes were really good too. The red wine sauce was delicious and complemented the steak nicely. We could have eaten a bigger portion, but nevertheless, it was great. Lastly, for dessert, we got the Lava Cake and the Raspberry Lemon Cheesecake. When ordering the Lava Cake, we were disappointed to see that the ice cream was already really melted by the time it got to us. It gave us the impression that it had been sitting there for a while. The Lava Cake itself was really good -- the dulce de leche really brought everything together. The cheesecake was also really good. It was the perfect amount of sweetness for a cheesecake, and the raspberry topping was great. Overall, the experience was nice, but do I see myself coming back here anytime soon? Unlikely.
