Craving a seriously delicious steak? 🥩 I found the perfect spot for a high-class dining experience! The atmosphere here is amazing, making every bite even more enjoyable. Plus, the service is super professional, they really know how to take care of you. And let's talk about the steak itself – absolutely incredible! 🤤 Seriously, if you want top-notch beef, this is the place to be. I felt like I was dining in Paris 🇫🇷 with the ambiance and the quality. Definitely a must-try for any steak lover out there. Already planning my next visit.

I haven't been to this location in years! And it was still the great establishment that I remember. Paul and Jose were absolutely wonderful, so friendly, kind and professional, excellent service. This location is one of the bigger ones I've been to and it was beautiful. The food was great. I came with a large group and we all ordered apps, entrees and the dessert was on the house! We had shrimp cocktail, French onion soup, crab cakes and crab lump cocktail for starters. For entree, we did the lamb chops, Chilean sea bass, salmon, and scallops with lobster risotto. For sides we shared the creamed spinach, au gratin potatoes and mashed potatoes. Everything was exceptional and my overall experience was a 10/10!

I frequent capital grille often in many different cities. It’s always my go to if I’m unfamiliar with an area or local fine dining options. This one was spot on just like you would expect (best French onion). Service was prompt and friendly along with speedy food service. My drink was never left empty while not over barring. Would highly recommend.

I had the true pleasure of celebrating my birthday here on 4/26. I was a solo diner, but Sarah treated me with the same enthusiasm, kindness, and dignity as I imagine she would any other table. She was so helpful in guiding me as I chose my plates and had such a bubbly and cheerful attitude throughout. Her quality service was truly exceptional and made me feel comfortable and relaxed as I enjoyed my meal. The food was phenomenally superb! From the blackberry bourbon sidecar, crab and lobster cake w basil pesto sauce, to the scallops and lobster asparagus risotto, and finally the coconut cream pie 🤤🤯 If you’re looking a great meal w great service, I highly recommend stopping by!

We had an unforgettable anniversary dinner, thanks in large part to our amazing waitress Krissy. She was incredibly personable, warm, and attentive from the moment we sat down. Her recommendations were spot on, and truly elevated our dining experience. She checked in on us regularly, and made sure everything was perfect. Her genuine care and thoughtful service helped make our night so special! One we’ll always remember. We’re so grateful for this experience for our first visit. The generous pour wine tasting was so fun! We will be back.

We went to The Capital Grille for drinks and dessert and chose to sit at the bar, which turned out to be the highlight of our evening. We ordered espresso martinis, and they were absolutely delicious, perfectly crafted and well-balanced. What truly made this visit unforgettable, though, was the exceptional service and genuine connection we had with the bartenders. Chelsea and Kyle were incredibly personable, warm, and engaging. They didn’t just serve drinks, they created an experience. At their recommendation, I tried the coconut cream pie, something I wouldn’t have ordinarily ordered. I’m so glad I did because it was out of this world, rich, creamy, and perfectly indulgent. I would highly recommend not only the drinks and dessert but the entire experience at the bar. Chelsea and Kyle, thank you both for the fantastic conversation and the memorable evening. You truly elevated the visit.

Johnny and Crissy made our dining experience exquisite. They were extremely helpful and made us feel like we were at home. The food was excellent and the service matched. We are going to be planning our company Christmas party here because of their amazing service. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone if you’re looking for excellent food and even better service.

The restaurant serves a variety of menu with exceptional service by staff. The ambiance is great and allows people to have a conversation over dinner. Reservations should be made in advance if you plan to eat here. It gets full pretty fast. I truly enjoyed my bone in prime rib and for dessert there’s a lot of choices too. Get the beet salad as an appetizer. You’ll be satisfied with it! I highly recommend this place without hesitation.

Never have i dined out onThanksgiving. But this year I decided to. They had complimentary valet, the hostess inside was extremely sweet and friendly. My waiter john was so knowledgeable describing the menu and attentive. The atmosphere was A+++++ 5 STARS is not enough. I had seabass 🤌exceptional, my son had Ribeye and it was perfection, and we also had lobster Mac and cheese. But can I tell you the lobster and crab cake!!! Omggg. Im so mad I had to share. Kids always want a piece 🙄. It was worth every dime. Extremely grateful for that experience, coming from a working mom who felt guilty for not cooking, my kids said they loved it. Thank you 😊

The Capital Grille is one of the finest dining establishments in Connecticut. The ambience is superb, service over the top and the food remarkable. This is a large well-appointed restaurant. There are private rooms for small gatherings. The tables in the dining area are appropriately spaced apart, the lighting dim and noise decibels well controlled, contributing to the atmosphere of refinement and privacy. Capital Grille has an extensive menu. The dry aged cuts are perfectly cooked to order with a consistent crust and the signature sides and starters were high quality. I especially enjoyed the mac and cheese. Our party of six thoroughly enjoyed the meal, the atmosphere, the service and especially the food. One member of our group mentioned that the waiter did not ask about food allergies. This is a best practice standard but if I had a severe food allergy, I would certainly make my own inquiry to ascertain that the meal I was ordering did not contain anything that would trigger my allergy. In addition, our server may have asked about allergies, but I didn’t hear him. An extensive high-end craft cocktail and deep wine list contribute to the dining experience. I especially enjoyed the Double Oaked & Rye Manhattan. Expect to pay around $125 per person which I think is very reasonable considering the excellent service, food, and atmosphere.
