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.

Joe and his crew were spectacular. Could not hope for better service (which I mean to say conversation, intelligence and knowledge). A+++

There are 4 of us who enjoy going to Capital Grill and sitting in the bar area for their "bar" special. It is the best steak sandwich and a glass of wine anywhere. We went on Sunday 2/16/2025 (made a reservation) and were told that menu wasn't available. Our waiter checked with the chef and said they would accommodate us. Our server was Sean and he was the best. Upbeat personality, accommodating and just a pleasure. The only one who was not friendly was the woman who checked us in and showed us to our table.
