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.

    The balsamic glaze steak may have been the best steak I’ve ever had. I did it on a filet mignon instead of the ribeye though too!!

    We had dinner at the new Capital Grille location. Massi was our waiter and was very attentive. The food was excellent, as always. The new location feels less intimate and more the Grand Central Station where it's located. If you can get past the busy-ness, ask for Massi. Reliable stake house with decent wine list.

    The Capital Grille is amazing. I prefer the Wall St location only because it’s not as busy. The food is delicious and consistent.

    While the service and food were wonderful, we were disappointed with how we were treated upon arrival. Our party of eight had three members delayed due to traffic—one was just around the corner, another nearby, and the third arriving later. Despite this, we were told we couldn’t be seated until everyone arrived, with the added mention that we’d be rushed through our meal due to the next seating. At a restaurant of your caliber, we expected a more accommodating approach, such as seating the present members of our party to begin enjoying the experience. Unfortunately, this left us feeling unwelcome and diminished the overall experience. Having dined at establishments across Europe, we’ve seen how flexible and hospitable restaurants can be in similar situations, which contrasts with our experience here. While we appreciated the quality of the service and food, this initial treatment has given us pause about returning.

    , I am a Capital Grille Groupie! Born & raised in Boston -attended Boston University in the shadows of the flagship Capital Grille in Boston - When Rockefeller recruited /transferred me to Manhattan I discovered Managing Partner Bill Butler -locations on 42nd street , Rock Center & Wall Street. My clients love Executive Chef Partner Alex Garcia! His signature beef choices & sides are favorites!! GM Jill is fashionably dressed in a knockout red leather dress. Diningroom Mgr Laura is the “hostess with the mostest”!! Our waiter Luis was well versed in menu choices to complement our tastes! Bennett mixes a grey goose perfectly chilled!! We began with Seafood soup &.Jumbo shrimp cocktail. Perfectly prepared filet minion & a new seafood creation: 5 tender scallops over a risotto with lobster chunks perfectly cooked al dente!! And cheesecake with a gorgeous fruit medley to WOW the most discerning for dessert. The “Street talk”:. All midtown competition salivate for the “standing room only” customers in the lounge and without a reservation no availability in the diningroom!! Congratulations Team Bill Butler: YoU have a Winner!! Xoxo Bonnie from Manhattan

    The place was jammed and our server was stretched thin. But he did his best and we appreciated his effort. The food was fabulous. My wife said it was the best steak she ever had… it’s expensive, though. Really expensive. Special occasions only for our family.
