The restaurant is very nice and clean. Surprisingly quiet. We could actually enjoy a conversation without having to talk over the table next to us or annoying loud music. Service was great. Food was even better. Tried lots of beer, I have no complaints

We typically go to the Milwaukee one, but the experience here was sooo much better. Capital Grille was already one of my favorite restaurants, but this time around, everything was so much better. Service, food, drinks. Juan and the server assistant were amazing, as was the management that checked up on us!

Our waiter was great. Friendly, attentive, and everything topped off. The food was excellent, my mom and both my kids loved our dishes. We had plenty to eat with enough bread, appetizers, and soups and salads. When our main dishes came, it was all delicious. We all only had about half of our main dishes, but were excited about taking it home for leftovers. Then we had the tiramisu for dessert and were completely satisfied.

Our spot in Schaumburg brings the cook to Cook County.

It goes without saying that romantic dining isn’t complete without one of our famous fondues, so make sure to order one for the table. Indulge in decadent chocolates and artisan cheeses with a perfectly paired glass of wine nearby. And most importantly, drop by any time of the year. The rich aroma floating through the air isn’t limited to holidays and birthdays, so treat your special someone to a spontaneous night on the town and celebrate the everyday with us.
