Make it a day to remember. From birthdays and anniversaries to professional milestones, we aim to make every gathering special at The Capital Grille.

The Capital Grille's wine list features more than 350 selections, and its floor-to-ceiling wine kiosk regularly houses 3,500 - 5,000 bottles. Reservations are recommended but not required.

    Wonderful dinner from start to finish! Impeccable and friendly service from Rebecca & Edgar. Two of our party enjoyed the Tomahawk Veal Chop, both cooked to perfection. I opted for the special - South African Lobster Tails that melted in my mouth. We all enjoyed the special mashed potatoes, yum! Manager Adam greeted us as we arrived and checked in later, making fabulous dessert recommendations. I highly recommend this location of a great chain.

    We enjoyed the Wagyu and Wine special in the lounge. The staff was great. The wine is delicious, and the burgers were cooked perfectly with rich flavor. We highly recommend The Capital Grille.

    It was a very special diner since it was my birthday. Service was gourgeous. They gave me a birthday present as a nice petite dessert with a candle. Realy a wonderful experience. I recommend it.

    This was truly a top three dining experiences of all time for me. I’ve experienced great food and service but possibly none compare to the service and attention to detail shown by Rachel and the Capital Grille staff. Extraordinary almost seems inadequate! TOP NOTCH!

    I accidently ordered the Calamari and then when it arrived I realized that it was for 2 people. So I was so full I couldn't order the steak that I had my eye on, instead I ordered the French Onion Soup (small one) and it was so delicious. Best French Onion soup I have ever had. Next time I will skip the appetizer and go straight to the steak. The staff at the bar was amazing and very friendly
