Make it a day to remember. From birthdays and anniversaries to professional milestones, we aim to make every gathering special at The Capital Grille. Open seven days a week, The Capital Grille is best known for our expertly prepared steaks, which are dry aged in house for 18 to 24 days and then hand-cut by our restaurant's on-premise butcher. 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. For more information, please visit our website. We look forward to delighting you.

    It was our first time visiting this location and it exceeded all VERY high expectations. What blew me away the most was the hostesses at the front. Devyn and Zena went above and beyond to make my two children comfortable and happy as we celebrated our 1 year olds birthday. I would definitely come back just to see them again.

    This was by far our best date night we’ve had in a long time. The service was outstanding, the food was spectacular, and the restaurant was charming. We highly recommend this restaurant. We can’t wait to go back.

    Sean was overwhelmed and wasn’t able to provide the level of service expected. Prefer a different server next time we dine.
