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.

    First time at this location. Wonderful meal and service for our table of four. Quite pricey as expected. Will remember that I am never disappointed at a Capital Grille.

    Capital Grille has been a favorite of mine for years but I am noticing a drop in quality of food as of late. Furthermore, I recently ordered Halibut and was brought out Sea Bass. I felt like they served it figuring I wouldn’t notice. Experiences like that are not forgotten by customers.

    Had a wonderful dinner at Capital Grille last night. Service was amazing and everything was delivered in seamless fashion. My wife and I both had NY strips which were cooked to perfection. All sides were great. Drinks and dessert were also terrific. Our server, Nicole, was delightful. Another fantastic experience at Cap Grille.
