Starting with the valet, manager Yanni who was very accommodating and made sure everyone had a wonderful experience. The place is elegantly decorated, the food is super fresh and perfectly cooked and seasoned, the portions are very generous and the wines are spectacular! We are looking forward to our next dinner and will be bringing our friends as well. Thank you Oceanos for a beautiful experience!!

You can never go wrong eating at Capital Grille. The food is always outstanding and the waiters are remarkable. We’ve eaten at other locations in different states but to us the Paramus location is the best. I had the New England Clam Chowder soup, the Lobster salad. My husband had the French Onion soup and the Steak Frites . We finished our meal with the cheesecake. Everything was absolutely delicious!
