This is probably the worst steakhouse I have been to ever. 1.Everything took forever to come out. It took like 20-30 minute just for the salads. We were there for 2.5 hours. Instead of getting our checks together, our waitress was more worried about cleaning the table off. 2.when they brought the steaks, our waitress nor the manager asked if the temp of our steaks were correct and they were not. I stopped them and sent mine back. My sons was overcooked too, his was supposed to be medium well and it was very well. 3.no one asked us about our experience and if we like our food. This place was way too expensive to be as bad as it was. Will not be back read more

Finally had a proper meal at the Capital Grill with a group of friends! Service and ambiance at the restaurant is amazing - never felt rushed during our 4 hour meal and service was great. We started with the drink menu, they provide a visual menu with drinks shown - most drinks are $13+. As a celebration, they provide us with shots of the dole whip cocktail, which was light and delicious. I ended up ordering a glass of prosecco $10, while many in our group opted for cocktails. It took us about an hour to order off the menu since we were so busy taking but service was excellent and they kept bringing us drinks! Most everything is à la carte on the menu with steaks starting around $50 and going up from there. I ended up getting the chef's special Ribeye with balsamic glaze, and we ordered a few sides for the table including the Brussel sprouts, lobster Mac n cheese, truffle fries and asparagus. I didn't notice but my steak was bone-in so when it arrived it was huge!! I ordered it medium rare and it was maybe a bit on the rarer side, but tender a good steak. Not sure if I would order it again for the price but glad I tried it. The sides were the show stopper though - you must order the lobster Mac n cheese and Brussel sprouts for the table. All in all, it was a good meal but very expensive. read more

Pretty good spot for our anniversary dinner. They do make it a point to congratulate you many times throughout the night. I found it a little tacky that they charge $5 for the anniversary dessert they bring out. I know that's not much but it's not something we order so how can you charge for it?!? The service is always excellent. The food is well thought out. Execution might not be to perfection every time but you can tell they are trying. read more

The Capital Grille has always been a go to spot for my wife and I when we want to go out for a romantic dinner because of the ambiance.

My server Daniel apologized for making me "wait" and I was like that's cool, and he made like a small tablecloth situation at the bar by folding the napkin and gave me an extra one. He gave me a free Q ginger ale and boxed up my bread very nicely with no charge. I have been four times and the service is always impeccable, from the hostess stand to the bartender. The only thing I would say that is different here than from Ruth Chris is the manager doesn't come out and talk to you. Great Calamari, huge portion. read more

In our house I generally cook Thanksgiving dinner one year and we eat out on the next, etc. After Wifey narrowed down the locations that were serving on what I'm suddenly going to call Hungry Thursday, we decided that The Capital Grille was the winner. We've been meaning to try it since they opened, so our Thanksgiving Dinner Reservation was made there. The Capital Grille has been opened all of a year at this point, and it is a marvelous facility. The ambiance is upscale with dark woods, mood lighting, and a good variety of music playing overhead at a comfortable volume. No need to talk over the music in order be heard. Our server was Amanda and Amanda was pretty on-point for the entirely of our visit. After reviewing the Thanksgiving Dinner offering (it was a set plate), the wife and I both decided to order off the regular dinner menu. While the Thanksgiving dinner menu appears to cover all the bases we thought we needed to try what The Capital Grille was known for. I started out with a wedge salad, then the 18 oz New York Strip. My wife had the Seared Sea Scallops with Maine Lobster and Asparagus Risotto. One thing we didn't know before getting there that every. single. menu. item. is sold a la carte. My steak, for instance, came with no side. Sides are their own line item. My Wedge salad....Holy Cow! I've eaten a lot of Wedge salads, but this one, hands down, 100%, is the best I've ever had. The bacon was unbelievable and the bleu cheese dressing was absolute perfection. When our main courses came I was surprised how large my steak was. Wifey's seafood was amazingly well presented. The steak was cooked to perfection, but could have been seasoned a bit more for my tasted. It goes without saying that I couldn't finish my steak. The Wedge salad took up almost all the room except for....except for...when the dessert menu came along. THEN I had room for more. My wife got The Capital Grille Cheesecake, I got the Seasonal Berries. It's amazing. Even after I said I couldn't eat anymore, I could definitely eat the Seasonal Berries! They were out-freaking-standing! Every Single Staff Member was in motion, making sure things were taken care of, no matter what it was. I'm sure the staff in a restaurant like this must be enormous, and there was incredible amount of teamwork going on. Everything about The Capital Grille was 100% awesome and 100% On Point. Now that we've visited once we can plan on going back. read more

I absolutely love The Capital Grille. The atmosphere and ambiance are perfect for any occasion. Whether you are celebrating something special, enjoying a romantic evening, dressing up for a night out with the girls or prefer to be more casual and sit at the bar for a few drinks and apps, this is an excellent choice. I have dined in for all of these occasions but the most recent visit was for my stepsons 16th Birthday. I made a reservation for the "bar" area so we could be sat in McKenzie's section. They have waited on us several times and always do an outstanding job so I couldn't think of anyone better to help us celebrate such a special occasion. They truly go above and beyond to make sure your experience is memorable. We sat in a round booth towards the back, and noticed there was a Birthday card on the table for him along with some confetti which was so thoughtful. When I made the reservation I added The Generous Pour experience for my husband and I which is where you get to "taste six award-winning wines crafted by legends for $45 with the purchase of a dinner entrée." We started with the round of whites and saved the reds for dinner. Each pour is 2 oz and is a great way to get to try some wines that you normally wouldn't get too, this special lasts until 8/31/25 ... highly recommend. Dinner was equally as good, we started with the New England Clam Chowder, the Calamari and split the Wedge with Bleu Cheese and Smoked Bacon which are all delicious. We also shared the Tomahawk Ribeye, Brussel Sprouts and the Au Gratin Potatoes which were all Devine. My MIL got the Seared Citrus-Glazed Salmon with Marcona Almonds and Brown Butter which I tried and made me fall in love with Salmon and the Birthday Boy got the NY Strip and mashed potatoes. They brought out a complementary dessert for his Birthday which had cheesecake and a chocolate mousse I believe, the cheesecake was definitely my favorite. read more

They made me AKA a vegetarian or special customized dish chili and soya glazed tofu on a bed of jasmine rice with some shiitake mushrooms and carrots. Delicious filling meal. I also ate some sides on the table. The spinach was great and so are the potatoes. The spinach just has some sort of a secret herb/ingredient that I could not figure out. The chocolate espresso flourless cake is delicious as dessert. My camera did not need hence I don't have any pictures. The ambience is of course uppity but in a nice way. The service is great and Erica, our server was very attentive to our needs. read more

Went to the lounge during Thursday Happy Hour. Ordered a couple of drinks and enjoyed filet sliders, caesar salad bites, shrimp, and a cup of clam chowder.

Truly great experience. Classic steakhouse, with all the dishes, cocktails, and wines you'd expect in one, all in a classy but not stuffy atmosphere and with elite service. My steak was a hair over what I expected cook-wise, but the flavor was still very much there which says a lot (and mine was an outlier, all other orders looked to be cooked perfectly). Desserts were a huge hit, not a weak entry in the bunch! I look forward to returning. read more

Food 4.5/5, Service 2.5/5 Stopped in for happy hour at the bar. Bar was full, but everyone seemed to have already been served when I sat down. It was a good 4-5 minutes before I was greeted. Asked for a drink and the menu. Drink was dropped off and server darted away without even asking if I was ready to order. When I finally did get to order (6-10 minutes later) they either didn't listen or rang it in wrong. As a result, my side dish was not put in. So part of my meal was dropped off by a food runner who did a drop and dash like the server and then the server didn't come within earshot until I was halfway done with my entrée. So my side wound up being more of a dessert than a side by the time it came out. Think it was comped? Think they offered any excuse or apology? Nope. I worked in restaurants years ago, and do well enough now to frequent some nice places, so I think I'm reasonable when it comes to expectations. I can certainly see that the length of the bar and position of the service bar make it challenging for the bartenders to keep an eye on everything. That tells me they need either more bartenders on or a better system of coverage. I left quite unimpressed, especially for a chain restaurant that usually has more thorough training and protocols. read more

The Capital Grille is a steakhouse. And a chain. I typically don't choose to frequent either, however work dinners are often held at these places so I do experience them from time to time, As I did just recently. Our server was friendly and professional, however she did neglect to take drink orders for some of the tables. The larger issue arose when I inquired about vegan options and allergens in some of the dishes, and she revealed she wasn't sure what constituted vegan (unaware that milk, eggs, butter, cream etc are not vegan). I asked whether there were any vegan salad dressings, and she offered ranch, bleu cheese, and parmesan vinaigrette, also stating she wasn't sure whether the champagne or citrus vinaigrettes were vegan. To be safe I asked for the dressing on the side - the person who brought my salad wasn't sure what type of dressing was provided, and as it appeared creamy and smelled bacon-y I elected not to chance it. The theme was similar for all the accompaniments (staff was unsure if any of the breads were made with dairy/eggs, believed the creamed spinach and mashed potatoes with cream and butter were vegan-friendly). She was able to request a specifically vegan entree from the kitchen, which appeared to be vegan: a disk of white rice topped with two noodles, mushrooms, tomatoes, asparagus, and spinach. The flavor was okay, but the veggies lacked salt. There were no vegan dessert options, so I watched my colleagues enjoy their flourless chocolate espresso cake while I sipped my water. While I understand that steakhouses focus on steak, it would go a long way if The Capital Grille took the effort and time to acknowledge specific dietary preferences and needs, provide accommodations for everyone who elects (or needs) to dine with them, and educate their staff about menu items, ingredients, and limitations so they can ensure all diners are treated equitably. read more

The service and food are always top notch at The Capital Grill. Whether you're just stopping at the bar for a drink before your meal or in the large dining room, the staff always go above and beyond to make sure you have a great dining experience. If you are celebrating an anniversary or birthday, they decorate your table for the celebration. I particularly love their raw seafood appetizers. The bread bowls that come before the meal are also a highlight. The restaurant also serves lunch for a more low key experience. read more

Upon not eating the day before while out to Conner's... then trying again tonight... had to leave- just wanted a nice steak and quality time with my daughter! Called to see about the wait- an hour ok. Arrived early, and so beautifully welcomed in. First sign of how extraordinary the rest of our first visit would continue to expand and grow into just a magical and profoundly unique experience. Our hostess was just sweet, compassionate and went beyond to ensure we would be set up for greatness! She sat us with Robbie- astounding, handsome, hilarious and just absolutely fantastic set of skills! The best!!! Periodt. Yaaaaasssssss! We were graced by 3 managers, all of whom were very well trained, respectful, professional and also hysterical! They really were just showing out! Checked on us- made sure we had everything!!!! These gentlemen know how to ensure everything is right, you're not only having a great time but are entertained! Just bloody brilliant... I literally laughed so hard and was in tears that my lashes popped off! No- seriously! This service, the gorgeous people, and this amazing place is worth every penny. Food.. oh well now... let's just see- Ah-fucking-mazing. Pan fried Calamari and the Nueskes Cherrywood Smoked Bacon with Korean BBQ round of applause!! So good- my daughter prefers softer calamari and I prefer it crunchy lol but it was a mix of both! Peppers were delicious! She had the roasted chicken breast with mushrooms and Parmesan risotto- she absolutely loved it! It smelled ridiculously amazing! (Please read her review on her food lol) I ordered the NY Strip au Poivre with Courvoisier cream sauce- just minus the peppercorns... and did the mashed potatoes... Applause and cheers and tears... like my eyes did roll over to the back of my head and well I won't say what was said but eh... I did have a whole moment and everyone wants what I was having. Iykyk If not they're not wanting it... they are not very interesting and can't sit with us. I said what I said. Now - I am not a drinker... but I went on to try one out for y'all. The passion fruit mojito- I don't want no problems. But this right here... *lip smack pop lock and drop* Fire, strong as all get out I was lit and again I'm not a drinker so yeah a lightweight. My buzz wasn't crazy but I was like can I get another sooooooooooo lol Dessert we ordered the coconut cream pie and the cheesecake. She said she loves the coconut cream it was so sweet! The crème brûlée cheesecake... the texture of the cheesecake was so.. sooooo velvety soft... and the flamed top... ugh it's so good I'm disgusted I don't have another one yet. So now that I've taken you on an extended journey just know this... I made reservations before leaving. Best night out... so grateful and feeling so lucky to have met everyone! Thanks squad- a whole treasure of fabulous people in the city! Chefs kiss hit em five times read more

The Waygu & Wine experience was fancy. From the moment you pull up in the parking lot, from the Tiffany colored shutters to the statues at the door., it screams elegance! We were greeted upon walking in, our reservation was at 8:30. The table was decorated for my bday in a classy way. The dim lights was screaming romantic. We were originally supposed to be at the bar, so they switched us with no problem. From the pineapple shots gifted to us by Emily the best bartender and the small wine tasting she gave us before we decided on what glass we were paring with our Waygu burger.

We went here last night for an early Valentines dinner. I will list things that we really really liked when things really didn't like things that were just OK. I will say the atmosphere and the ambience of the place is beautiful. I love the outside of the building and the inside of the building, I thought it was stunning to view. I like the ladies in the front they checked my coat. I thought that was nice. We were seated in the bar area. We first sat down. There were some intoxicated gentlemen at the bar and Security threw them out. I never seen this at a restaurant before fancy one was kind of a cool feature. Our waitress was super friendly and nice. My wife and I both ordered a New York strip unfortunately both were not cooked medium like they were supposed to be mine out raw and I hate this but I had to send it back because it was a rare steak and I asked for medium my wife's came out well done but we didn't send her back. It was $57 for each steak so kind of wasted money on the state department unfortunately, they didn't bring me back a new steak within a few moments and it was tasty. It was not the best, but it did job. My wife's pour steak is still sitting in the refrigerator because there's no saving it. Anyway, we got mac & cheese and au gratin potatoes and both of them were really good. The manager came out and checked on those since I had to send my steak back so that was nice to see. I did get to go box and unfortunately they did not give me the rest of Augrton potatoes. They gave us the mac & cheese and the go box And the two steaks to take home but they didn't give me my au gratin potatoes. They threw them away. Not really sure why they did that but can't get that money back either. Overall pretty good experience nobody's perfect on cooking steaks and they were nice about it at least. I would go back read more
