Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in 39th St / Westport / Midtown

My wife and I decided to make reservations for 2 on December 22nd at 5:30 pm knowing that it would be very busy. When we arrived, we were not surprised to see many wait staff going about serving the full restaurant with dozens of people waiting to be seated. We were seated only a brief time past our 5:30 seating time, but were promptly greeted by our capable waitress. We ordered soon as our drinks were served and the food arrive quickly and as ordered. We ordered blackened redfish which was served with mashed potatoes and perfectly prepared broccoli. I had a wonderfully rich lobster bisque that had small amounts of lobster meat along with floating croutons that were still crispy adding a nice textural element. This was served along with a wonderful/crusty basket of sour dough bread with soft butter served in small metal serving dishes. Our meal was outstanding as we had expected. A nice holiday treat for my wife and me.

We went to capital grill for my wife’s retirement dinner. Our server was EXCELENT and our meal was amazing! Highly recommend this establishment for all around service and food.

We always stop here when we are in town! Their drinks are our favorite and the food is also good. I think The Lavendar Brown is my favorite cocktail that I’ve ever had

Our server seemed a bit annoyed by us. Otherwise, everything was delightful as usual.

The food and drinks were very tasty, service was good and I appreciate all the vegetarian options that were available! It was just my partner and I and we got a nice little table near the window, which we both enjoyed! It was our first time and will definitely be back. I got the Yule cocktail and mushroom sammy, he got fish and chips and a sour. A little bit expensive (about $70 before tip in total), but worth it for the quality and experience.
