Editorial Review for The Capital Grille – by Dawn Keable
The Scene
Don't let the lace curtains throw you; those are the only feminine touches you'll find at sophisticated Capital Grille. The dark wood interior, leather booths, clocks and stock ticker lend a testosterone-laden ambience to this upscale New York-style steakhouse. And what goes better with the masculine mood than a hearty cut of dry-aged sirloin?
The Food
The first clue that things could get pricey is when you're offered a choice between bottled or tap water. Pick the free stuff from the faucet and put your savings toward the a la carte menu; the tab adds up fast. Start with spinach salad with warm bacon dressing, then try the dry-aged steak au poivre with Courvoisier cognac cream sauce for the main course. For a smaller appetite, order the tender filet mignon.

The steak is the best I have ever had and the chicken was really good and only $22 and big enough to take home. The sides are all a la carte, but you can ask for a half size. The martinis are very good. The chocolate flourless cake never dissapoints. The staff is great and they take take very good care of you. It is a treat to go there since it is expensive but worth every penny! You have to make sure you make reservations or you will probably wait a while for a table especially on a Saturday night.
Pros: Steak, Martinis, Service, Very Romantic
Cons: Wouldnt Take Kids

I don't frequently write reviews, and I certainly don't usually write a good review; but I LOVE this restaurant and have always had the most wonderful experience. We are by no means the “rich” that can afford to eat there weekly, I don’t wear Prada, and I’m not part of the rich and famous; yet I have always felt like the most important person in the room. From the genuine friendly greeting at the door to the smile and welcome from the service staff and management, I felt like I belonged there. I try to make the Capital Grille more than our special occasion restaurant; I think that we deserve it. Everyone deserves to be treated like they belong, to be served GREAT food in a warm and welcoming atmosphere and to be appreciated for your business. I am truly regretful that “Legolas” and “Mugsy” had a bad experience, but I can’t imagine that any member of the staff that I have met at The Capital Grille could come off as pretentious, they are so far from it, it is one of the greatest reason’s to go to The Capital Grille instead of so many other options out there; I always feel valued and I will always come back.
Pros: Staff, decor, food
Cons: None
