Onion soup to start was really tasty. Steaks were great. We got the filet and ribeye. Both cooked to perfection. The shallot sauce was delicious. And the mixed vegetables were awesome!

Hannah's has always been a great steakhouse, however our last visit was not as the last one in Valentine's Day. Specifically, the ribeye bone and steak was so much smaller than last time and the quality of the steak was not good. Very tough, too fatty and very stringy and hard to chew.

Capital Grille never disappoints. Had a delicious business lunch. My only observation is with the lobster bisque. It was heavy on the cream which overpowered the delicate flavors from the lobster. It also made the sherry wine unnoticeable.

About the restaurant
Sink your teeth into Rare Society - a modern homage to the golden age of the American steakhouse. Chef and owner Brad Wise reimagines vintage upscale dining with a bold, contemporary edge: a wood-fired grill fueled by red oak, an in-house dry-aging program, sustainably sourced seafood, and a progressive cocktail menu that nods to the classics while pushing boundaries. The space hums with energy - smoke curling from the grill, the scent of fire and flavor wafting through the air. It’s easy to picture a Rat Pack-era dinner party in full swing: elegant, indulgent, just a little unruly. Rare Society doesn’t just pay tribute to steakhouse tradition - it revives it, reinvents it, and serves it with just a little bit of swagger.

If you’re craving a perfectly cooked steak with sides that actually elevate the meal — look no further. The steak was seared to perfection with a flavorful crust and juicy center that practically melted in my mouth. What really sealed the deal were the sides: the grilled asparagus was tender with just the right snap, and the sautéed mushrooms were rich, buttery, and full of umami. Everything on the plate complemented each other beautifully — a truly satisfying and well-balanced meal. Service was attentive without being overbearing, and the ambiance made it easy to relax and enjoy every bite. Highly recommend for steak lovers who care about their sides just as much as the main course.

Recently dined at RC’s (*Michelson Location) w/my family; we enjoyed our dining overall dining experience as we typically do! Our server Jarred was courteous and helpful to recommend entrees and suggests cook temperatures for our steak cuts. Unfortunately, 2 of 4 steaks were still prepared medium rare’ despite ordering *medium plus; however, the chef was happy to sear the cuts to our liking and comp’d the meal that took the longest to re-prepare as all other accompaniments became cold while waiting for the filet. We were advised that there was a new chef which may have attributed to our experience, this could have certainly been a one-off, nonetheless we will most definitely return to enjoy dinner as we are consistently pleased with the quality and our experience!
