Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Bedford

Our recent visit to The Capital Grille in Burlington was absolutely fantastic! From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. We began our evening with drinks in the bar area, where Caroline took great care of us. She is always incredible—attentive, friendly, and just a joy to be around. The drinks were outstanding, perfectly crafted, and set the tone for a wonderful night. Once we were seated for dinner, our waitress at the table was equally wonderful. She was so patient and attentive, allowing us to take our time, enjoy our meals, and truly soak in the elegant yet comfortable atmosphere. And the food? Simply delicious—every single dish was a hit, and everyone at our table loved their meals. The Capital Grille continues to be one of our favorite places for an exceptional dining experience. From the service to the food and the overall ambiance, it was a perfect evening. We can’t wait to return!

Had the tuna tartare and crab cake to start and a center cut with lobster tail and scallops for an entrée. To end the meal, we had the banana foster which was well balanced of salt and sweet. The center cut was grilled to perfection and scallops were seared right on the button. Great service and dining experience overall.

Phish and chips was fresh and fried well. I wish there was more seasoning in the fish but it was still satisfying. The Loaded Poutine Fries had flavorful short rib gravy. The Short Rib Sandwich was the winner! The meat was extremely flavorful and cooked well and the dipping gravy elevated it to another level! Unfortunately, the Mac and Cheese was a disappointment - the translucent cheese sauce lacked cheese flavor. This was quite regrettable considering the quality of our overall food experience. The environment was very comfortable and pleasant. It had creative pieces such as a chandelier made out of trumpets, lighting that looked like piano keys, and a hung guitar art piece made out of metal gears. The waiter was attentive, pleasant, and fulfilled our customized requests accurately, timely, and graciously. The live music was wonderful! The musician was great and the audio system was clear but not excessively loud. We felt comfortable to dance and really had a nice time!

We had a fabulous dinner tonight at Black and Blue Steak and crab in Burlington. We requested a quiet table (59th wedding anniversary) and were seated at a corner table for four just for the two of us. Perfect. No negatives tonight. Great staff, great, original food, awesome Manhattan and the price was appropriate for such a wonderful evening. I had the two filets with crab, husband had the scallops. We both cleaned our plates. No room for dessert. We would return, maybe for our 60th? :)

Perfect early valentines celebration, the server was great with my allergies and very attentive. The drinks and food were both delicious
