    What a great dining experience from start to finish! Our server Corin was fabulous! Very personable, engaging & professional. Our steaks were cooked to perfection & the handcrafted cocktails were delicious. Everything here is done with perfection & has the most professional service of any restaurant around.

    Had Thanksgiving 2024 here. Not everyone in the family likes Turkey, so we chose this place because we love dining here on non-Holidays and they serve their entire menu plus Turkey dinner on Thanksgiving. Anyway, I had the traditional Thanksgiving dinner and it was awesome. Absolutely the best Turkey dinner I ever had. Turkey was moist and delicious, sage stuffing and mashed potatoes were over the moon fantastic. The portion size was huge. I ate for days afterwards. Other members of the family had the Chilean sea bass and Ahi Tuna and they too loved their meals. Drinks were strong, service was great. Fidel did a great job taking care of us and we will make this our Thanksgiving go to restaurant from here on out. Man oh man I wish they offered that Turkey dinner on their regular menu throughout the year. Their chefs totally crushed it. I cannot stop thinking about that dinner and how great the overall experience was. Thank you Capital Grille!!

    We went to Capital Grill based on a friend’s recommendation as his favorite steakhouse. We were disappointed in the food. The filet mignon was not hot off the grill nor were the au gratin potatoes hot from the oven. The Caesar salad was nothing special. The beet salad is something I could easily make at home. The best part was the bread bowl. Butter too hard to spread. Jade was a good server. Jose was attentive.
