Capital Grille - TampaYou can't go wrong with anyYou can't go wrong with any of the cuts of beef at the Capital Grille. Incredible wine list too!5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat restaurant - Amazing Food!We have eaten at Capital Grille many times and I actually feel like it just keeps getting better! I took my mother Friday night for Mother's Day and I just can't say enough good things. The service was perfect, my mom loved the ambiance and the food was phenomenal. The outdoor deck is great for dining and people watching, but was already a little warm to eat out there this time. If the weather cooperates, I highly recommend dining out there.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMFriendly, Quiet, EfficientCapital Grille is one of those places that is perfect for having lunch where you can sit quietly and discuss business or simply have a conversation with a friend. I love their sour dough basket; the service is always above par and the food can be as light as you choose up to having a heavy steak...whatever anyone prefers. The servers don't rush you through the meal and seem to be pretty savvy that way knowing when to interrupt or not. Great spot and valet parking is comp'd. Very efficient in and out luncheon while still keeping a tad of elegance into the mix.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMOne of Our FavoritesCapital Grille is one of our top picks for special occasions. The service, food, wine, and ambience are consistently excellent. We were celebrating my birthday, and it was a pleasant surprise to have a beautiful long-stem red rose on the table, along with birthday greetings from the staff. Plus, they brought me a complimentary creme brûlée with fresh berries and a birthday candle. In addition to a great basic menu, there are always tempting specials. Family and friends love going to Capital Grille! It's always an elegant, fantastic experience.5/5/2013 12:00:00 AMBest chain restaurant in downtownBest chain restaurant in downtown Tampa.

It was my first time dining and I work at a fine dining restaurant, so my expectations are pretty high. The service was excellent, food delectable, and it wasn't very busy (probably because I went for lunch.) Unfortunately I was experiencing some health issues, so I was limited with what I could eat. I'm anxious to head back for a heavier dish and dessert!4/15/2013 12:00:00 AMLove capital grille! I goLove capital grille! I go there every year for my birthday!! It's always the best...

Highly recommend!!3/17/2013 12:00:00 AMdecided to hit the capitaldecided to hit the capital grille for the first time. overall it was a great experience. our waiter TERRY was a dream, so attentive and friendly! we were tucked into one of the dining room areas, so it was a great spot to actually have a conversation and not have to strain to hear each other.
food was good too!
one note: everyone has raved about the truffle fries, but i wasn't all that impressed. i mean the fries were really delicious, but lacked any flavor, like truffle or salt. but the texture of the fries was good.
-- when i dine out, i try not to add salt to a dish, i feel that just undermines the chef. ;)
i will definitely go back to capital grille!!3/15/2013 12:00:00 AM
