Best Wine Bars in Palisades Northwest

Came here before a show at Kennedy Center, it is an easy 10 minute walk from there. This place is huge and can seat a lot of people. Food was excellent and came out very quickly. The decor was beautiful and I normally hate high top chairs but they were comfortable and had enough foot rests. They were very busy and seemed to be short on servers so service was a little slow as far as server checking on us but everyone was very nice and the speed in which the food came out made up for it so we still left exactly the time we planned. If in the area, I would come back here and recommend to others.

We were fortunate enough to have the legendary Wayne Anderson as our server last evening. While the experience and meal itself spoke for itself and the Capital Grille brand, Wayne was a perfect host and is a true master of his craft. Thank you, Wayne, for making our evening that much more special.

Great experience from the cocktails to the salad to the main meal and dessert. The service was exceptional and we look forward to returning. 

We enjoyed our dinner at The Capital Grille as usual. It has not disappointed over several decades. We were only somewhat disappointed to see that a large percentage of the guests were very casually dressed. It reduces the feeling of being in a special place when you can't tell the difference between Clyde's or the Capital Grille. It is just a reality of our culture.

Our service was excellent. When we asked about the wine by the glass, he had the sommelier come to discuss the choices which was super helpful. Our dinners were excellent, both the appetizers and the mains. Their brodetto is one of the best dishes we’ve experienced in DC.
