    Our dinner was great. It was nice to be seated at a table as opposed to the bar. The cocktails were delicious. The sea bass was amazing, as was the chicken parm, which exceeded our expectations. Service was fabulous. The flatbread was only so-so. But overall, excellent dinner.

    We had an absolutely great evening! The food was superb, and Gary did an awesome job. Everything we had to eat was well prepared and the pacing of the meal was just right. The ONLY thing I would recommend would be to dial the violin player down about 2 clicks in volume. His music was beautiful, but just was a bit too loud.

    Our reservation was at 4, we walked in and was seated immediately. The noise level was great they had light music on dim lighting and everyone was polite. Our food was out in 5 minutes we ordered the sweet and spicy shrimp. I gave that a 7 out of 10 it wasn’t hard enough for the main course we had the New Orleans grill.. Mmmmmmmm so flavorful with a lot of spice 10 out of 10!!! And the price was great it had steak,mashed potatoes, sausage and shrimp on the plate. It’s not a big plate the serving is like a sample of everything. It was just right for me!!1 we’ll definitely be back!!! The staff was so pleasant. Customer service was 10 out of 10

    As always, The Capital Grille did not disappoint. We go 3 times a year for birthdays and anniversaries. It is always a difficult choice as to what to order. From the lobster bisque to the wedge salad, steaks, lamb chops desserts. Customer service is second to none. Just attentive enough but not intrusive. Our favorite restaurant. Wherever we travel we look to see if a Capital Grille is nearby. Our waitress Lindsey was wonderful!
