The Capital Grille's wine list features more than 350 selections, and its floor-to-ceiling wine kiosk regularly houses 3,500 - 5,000 bottles. Reservations are recommended but not required.

This is a small, cozy, warm and inviting spot on Republic. Our server was Corey and he was engaging and friendly and attentive without being overbearing. We absolutely loved him. We ordered the marinated olives, spiced almonds (addicting!), the dates and cheese, daily special oysters and burger, the tinned sardines and the beef kafta. Literally everything was fantastic! The wine selections are unique and really nice. The desserts (almond pastries and truffles) were the perfect sweet. Whatever you do, order tea service! Delicious! This place overall was outstanding!!

A beautiful dinner, perfectly prepared, and exquisitely served. The wines were delicious and paired well with our selections. Our server, Johnny, was a delight as he anticipated our needs. Easily the nicest restaurant experience we've had in a very long time.
