    Great service as always. Disappointed in this food. Steak was chewy and the lobster tails were very small and no flavor.

    The food was okay. The lobster bisque was very very bland. Sent a whole bowl back and nothing was said. Tuna and filet were okay. No huge complaints but not exactly anything I’d go back for.

    Capital Grille does not ever disappoint! Ive been to Several and thats why i keep trying new locations. You always feel welcome from the moment you arrive. The hosts greet you with a smile and warmth. The server was outstanding. He was kind, courteous and professional. Our meals were outstanding! Lump crab appetizer, phenomenal salad, French onion soup and delicious chef specialties!

    Dining at The Capital Grille is always wonderful. But my wife and I celebrated our anniversary this time, as well, and the restaurant management and staff made it very special with a congratulations note and confetti to start, a “Happy Anniversary!” dessert and even a champagne toast. We had a great evening! The meal was outstanding, as always, but the experience overall could not have been any better or more warm and celebratory. Thank you!

    This was the first time my husband and I dined here, and now we have a new top 5 dining spot. The steak was very good, cooked perfectly. I like to have my steak well done and not only was my steak well done, it was still thick and juicy. All the portions were big. Great quality food. The dessert was much bigger than expected and so very good. We really liked our experience today and will be back soon.

    Fabulous. Super hostess and host). Great bartender (Scott) wonderful server (Troy). Food was awesome. I had the tenderloin/lobster special which was melt-in-your mouth delicious. My date had the sea bass which he loved. Could not have been better. And we got out on time to get to our show.

    A pricey place, but worth it. Delicious food. Excellent good, kind, friendly service. We had 7 people and 4 opted in for the 7 flight wine service. Nice perk, but suggest altering serving plan. Having all those glasses show up at once makes things too crowded on the table. Great night for a pre-wedding celebration of family from various cities. NICE JOB, Capital Grill Milwaukee! Thank you!

    Exceptional food, attentive wait staff and elegant atmosphere make for a memorable evening! The Generous Pour wine tasting set the stage for a very enjoyable dining experience. The “chef-recommended” sliced filet mignon was spot on, and the sea bass was perfectly done - tender and flaky. The coconut cream pie was a fabulous end to the meal.

    The food was excellent. The service was good, but not to the level one would expect of a restaurant at this price point. The large dining room was very loud, to the point where conversation was difficult. The cocktails were delicious (Blackberry Bourbon Sidecar and Espresso Martini)

    We were very disappointed in our filets. We have had such good ones in the past. For both of us, the steaks were very dry. I probably should have sent mine back as it was not rare but more like medium. Right now it will be a while before we return after this meal.
