    The environment was warm and inviting. Six of us enjoyed drinks and various brunch items. The food was very tasty. I had a breakfast burrito, filled with cheesy scrambled eggs, poblanos, black beans. And a side of pineapple. The burgers were thick and juicy on a bakery bun. I would have liked a free, small basket of rolls or pastries to have with coffee

    As usual, everything was perfect. The food, the service, the sensitivity to the customer is impeccable. We always choose Capital Grille for our special celebration because of this. My young granddaughters, ages 4 and 9 love the place and are always made to feel special. David Jaye, our server was professional, knowledgeable, and acutely aware of anything we could have needed.

    The food was excellent. I had the Branzino fish with capers in a lemon sauce. The fish was grilled to perfection and the sauce was light and flavorful. My husband had the East Coast Scallops De Jonghe and Augratin potatoes ( his favorite). We were celebrating my husband’s new job. The restaurant was quiet due to it being a Thursday night and not Friday or Saturday night when it is extremely busy and loud. This restaurant is worth the higher prices. The drinks are mixed to perfection. A must go to restaurant especially the Oak Brook location.

    This is a stunning restaurant. I haven’t been in surroundings like this since my days globetrotting as a working professional. Buddah Bar in Paris is the one that first comes to mind as a comparison. The service was flawless and my companion was wowed. I felt great. Thank you RH!
