    The food and service are impeccable. All of our dishes were well prepared and tasty. They made my husband’s birthday celebration special. I would go back to Capital any time.

    Excellent menu choices, steaks and outstanding food and service. I also liked the options of being able to do the table sides as half portions since I was there by myself. The Kona crusted bone-in KC strip was excellent. Love that steak.

    Capital Grille is certainly known for its meat; however, all individuals at our table had seafood. The seared scallops were outstanding!
