About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
Welcome to Capital City Chop House!
For decades, the Chop House has obsessed over one thing: quality. We start with the best steaks, seafood and chops we can find, cook them exactly to your liking, then inspect every plate twice before serving you. At every turn, we pay special attention to the details. It’s these little details that all melt together to make a truly extraordinary meal.
We believe premium ingredients are only as good as the chefs who prepare and cook them. We also believe a legendary menu falls flat without legendary service to serve it up. So whether it’s a business lunch, happy hour or date night, join us for a bona fide meal made the right way — all in an atmosphere where you can relax and be yourself.
Capital City Chop House sits right outside of Raleigh, making it easily accessible from most places in the Triangle. It’s within striking distance of Research Triangle Park, and is just a stone’s throw from RDU Airport.

    I don’t do reviews but this is the exception. The is our “Go To” place for that occasion when we want something very nice and remembered by all. The food is excellent and never disappoints. The staff, from the hostess, managers to the serve staff are always nice and attentive. This is NOT one of those places where you wait forever to get someone’s attention for a water / tea refill or something else you may need. Highly recommended.

    Went for our anniversary for the first time. The steak was better than Angus Barn. We also ordered scallops, which were perfect. Every item we ordered was delicious, and we enjoyed the intimate atmosphere. Our server, Kristen, was also top notch - very knowledgeable and attentive. We have a new steak house!

    The repeatedly make one of the best steaks we've ever had. Been a few times, they make an incredible stake - seasoned perfectly, cooked perfectly. While it's not free - the steak is as good or better than the more expensive places we've eaten - like Angus Barn, Ruth's Chris, Bin 54, etc. Their spinach salad is as good as one I've ever had. The Atmosphere is what keeps this from being on a part with the other places - it's tucked away by the airport and the weekend crowd is slow, which sort of dampens the atmosphere from being a bustling place with a lively bar. But on the flip side - it's nice to be able to get a reservation on a Saturday night ! But as long as they keep cooking and preparing food that's as good as I've eaten everywhere - I will keep coming back.

    If you want to take 2 hours to eat a meal for 2 people, this place is it. 45 minutes from being sat until getting drinks from the bar. Do not order cocktails, the bartender had no clue what they are doing (Saturday night dinner time) and drinks were horrible, sent back and different (basic) drink wasn’t good either. Server was invisible for 15-20 minutes at a time. It was our first time here so we didn’t know about the bread - because the bread didn’t come until salad/soup arrived, nearly an hour after being sat. Hour and 15 min in we finally get our food, baked potato had uncooked parts, steak was decent but not worth $50 (duck was great!). Birthday dessert was off menu and really good, server lit candle so it was a nice touch. Would not recommend, plenty of better steak restaurants in Raleigh.
