    We had a wonderful dinner at the capital Grille. Our waiter. Carlos was helpful explaining the food and drink menus. My husband steak perfectly and he signs her a great complement asparagus and mashed potatoes. I had the tuna with the rice. I don’t remember what it’s called. We would go back.

    Our anniversary dinner and the restaurant never disappoints. The food and service (thank you Shannon!) was excellent. Just as we were wrapping up a very large group (20+) came in and we’re seated at the far end of the main dining room. They were very loud and it definitely changed the ambiance, so we were glad that we were leaving. I would highly recommend the restaurant.

    Great service from the moment we got there, till the time we left. Started with the Stoli Doli and my friend who normally has bourbon straight up, ordered the Sidecar and enjoyed it very much. We were going to a show after so no appetizer. I had the roasted pear & Gorgonzola salad & she had the lobster bisque. We both ordered the sliced filet and added the blue cheese crust. Excellent and done to perfection. We also ordered the soy glazed Brussels sprouts with bacon. My friend finished her plate and I needed a doggy bag. They offered to hold on to it till after the show. And it was ready & waiting when I went to pick my car up from the valet. And could not of asked for better service!

    Great atmosphere lamb chops were superb was not a fan of the calamari too dry and not enough peppers for my taste. The waiter was friendly, quick service, and most of all I was able to find us mint jelly for the lamb chops. I will definitely be back.😀
