If you want to go to the Capital Grille, the downtown location is the best. My wife and I have tried them all and enjoy the atmosphere there over the others. The sirloin steak is great!

Cole Kennedy

Nothing ever changes, and that's exactly as it should be. My pick: bone-in NY strip with gorgonzola and truffle , or the same steak with a Kona crust. Skip the Brussels sprouts .

Elsa Anderson

The steak was perfect! Hard to get a good cut of ribeye steak , but they got it superb! Phenomenal service , and the food is just as phenomenal!

Stefanie

Perfect steaks and the lobster mac are a must for dinner . For lunch : the lobster bisque or the lobster & crab cakes are not published on the menu, under 500 calories and still so decadent.

Christine Platzer

You know when you're full and you still keep eating? That's this place! Service is phenomenal, food to die for! Crab cakes have chunks of crab you can actually see, lobster mac amazing! Steak perfect!

Kelly Harmantas

Kona steak & Oscar filet were amazing! Prosciutto mozzarella app was also great! Creme brûlée was perfect. Lobster Mac & cheese was not as amazing as I thought it would be. Overall Great restaurant

Betony Kelly

Truly wonderful old fashioned service. Great cocktails , amazing steaks and humongous sides. Caleb (waiter ) is a treasure and a marvellous guide for the menu.

Christopher Floss

So great to be back at The Capital Grille for the first time after quarantine. Try the Surf and Turf with the South African Lobster Tail !

Andrea Ginepri

If you are going for a Private Room (and you should) ask for The State Room (seats up to 16 rowdy people) over the smaller Board Room. Read more
