Fine dining at its best. Had the food that we were looking for, steak tar tar and shrimp cocktails. Steaks were delicious and cooked to perfection. Thank you 801 Chop house for the twenty year Anniversary it was great.

I normally do not take the time to leave reviews but Jason and the Capital Grille staff deserve to be applauded. This was my second experience dining here and one of our steaks happened to be overcooked. I hate being that person to send food back but ultimately decided it wasn't going to be enjoyable as is. Jason and the team immediately fixed the issue without any hesitation and went above and beyond to make it right. They brought out extra sides while the new steak was being prepared and even provided a gift card for the price of the steak as we were paying our check, non of which was asked for. My first experience here the steak was cooked perfectly and this time my girlfriend's was cooked perfectly so it seems like it was just a one off mishap. Besides correcting the steak issue Jason was just awesome at what he does and seems to enjoy the work that he does. He gave us some great drink recommendations and made my girlfriend's birthday dinner a great experience. We will be back for sure!
