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.

We had an incredible experience here. If you have the chance, PLEASE REQUEST MIKE!!! He is the most personable, fun, and knowledgeable server I’ve had in years. The steak was beautifully done. The au gratin potatoes- out of this world. Great steak dinner. With a cozy, traditional steakhouse environment

About the restaurant
Proudly serving the Appleton area for 20 years, completely remodeled with a full bar with burners, lounge tables, firewall, lover's lane and private dining rooms.
Our experience is perfect for a romantic night out or a special occasion that deserves a unique experience. Our location provides a casually elegant, intimate atmosphere. The relaxing four-course experience begins with a cheese fondue prepared table side. A fresh salad follows while your entrée pot heats up. You’ll simmer a variety of tantalizing meats, seafood and vegetables. Entrees can be cooked fondue style or one our tableside grills. Each morsel is hot, fresh and delicious and all entrées are accompanied by an array of dipping sauces to add to the flavorful fun. Chocolate fondue is the finale.
Thank you for supporting our independently owned restaurant and employees.

About the restaurant
The Mangiare Story
We trace our roots to Republic Chophouse, Green Bay area’s premier steakhouse and standard bearer of fine dining in northeast Wisconsin. Located just down the street from each other and under the same local ownership, Mangiare and Republic are sister restaurants that offer the best dining experiences north of Chicago.

We use only the freshest and most authentic ingredients for the offerings on our Mangiare menu. Featuring balsamic and oils sourced directly from Italy and breads from specialty bakeries, our chefs create intensely satisfying dishes that match the level of service which sets us apart.

Our attention to detail and commitment to excellence holds true regardless of whether your taste for the evening is classic Italian fare in a family-friendly atmosphere at Mangiare or steak in the unpretentious, yet fine dining environment of Republic.

We look forward to seeing you soon.

We enjoyed the tasting menu with wine pairings, one of which was a bit delayed, but all of which was exquisitely prepared.

Our group of 4 had a wonderful dining experience. Service was excellent as we had a main server and another support person. They came buy often to fill waters and ask if we needed anything. Great menu with some unique sides. Steaks were all prepared how we ordered them. There were some wonderful wines by the glass to take note. Highly suggest this steakhouse for your next dining experience

First time there. We went for Winter Restaurant Week. The table we were at was in the middle of the room and the lighting was dark which made it hard to see the menu. We noticed the tables by the walls were brighter so maybe we should of asked to move. We wear glasses with bifocals so the menu's small print was hard to read. The food we had was very good and glad we tried it.

The food was really good with reasonable portions, but a little pricey compared to equivalent restaurants.
