Make it a day to remember. From birthdays and anniversaries to professional milestones, we aim to make every gathering special at The Capital Grille. Open seven days a week, The Capital Grille is best known for our expertly prepared steaks, which are dry aged in house for 18 to 24 days and then hand-cut by our restaurant's on-premise butcher. The Capital Grille's wine list features more than 350 selections, and its floor-to-ceiling wine kiosk regularly houses 3,500 - 5,000 bottles. Reservations are recommended but not required. For more information, please visit our website. We look forward to delighting you.

    Unfortunately, our experience started off on the wrong foot due to the hosts at the front. Their attitude was unwelcoming—no smile, no warmth, and lacking professionalism. It left a poor first impression and really took away from the overall experience.

    We went for the Waygu & Wine Special. It is one of our favorite offerings each year. The burgers were fabulous! We ordered a side of the Lobster Mac & Cheese for the table and started with the Caviar Onion Dip. Everything was super delicious. Eric was our server and he was totally amazing. I don’t know when I have had such wonderful service.

    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.
