    Came here for a birthday party with a friend. I had some worry since I don't do fine dining much. But it was quelled as soon as I walked in. Malik, our waiter, did a great job serving my friend and I! He explained everything, checked on us constantly, gave us time, and our water was constantly refilled. Also, since it was my friend's birthday, they decorated the table and gave a complimentary dessert. Overall, great service and they took care of us. I'd definitely go back

    Made anniversary reservations and thought it would be a top notch experience since this is known as a high end restaurant. The food was just fair at best. I could have purchased a filet at the the longhorn for almost half the price. The restaurant was noise level overall was not too bad, but the large party seated next to use was loud and an obnoxious. By the time they were seated were well intoxicated. The service was poor. Our waitress seemed to be over allocated serving many table to allow a good experience. We asked for a wine list which I was told no one informed the head waitress. So, it took about 10 minutes before we again asked when we were able to get the waitress attention. Same occurred when we were ready to order. Had to continually wait to get our waitress’s attention. Just not what I expected for my anniversary dinner.

    Capital Grille never disappoints, the consistency of service and quality of food is always excellent. Our server went above and beyond to accommodate my husband and I celebrating our wedding anniversary with two young children. Although the food is excellent at other locations we’ve tried, we love coming to this Back Bay location in particular for the ambience and hospitality.

    We’ve always had an exceptional experience at Capital Grille and come every year for dine out Boston + the generous pour event. In the past it has always been amazing, however, our last experience was disappointing. The service wasn’t the same level. It was a bit slow and it felt like we had 4 different waiters throughout our dinner. And the steak wasn’t as good as prior years. I know prices are being increased everywhere but with the price increases for restaurant week and generous pour the value just isn’t there for us anymore. Now being $100+ a person for these events just doesn’t have the same appeal/draw.
