Best Wineries in Tampa

The staff here is the best, they’re talented, welcoming, and attentive.

Great experience! We started with the chicken wings. Great choice! They were crispy, with a light kick. Then shared a Caesar salad. The chef blends it with eggs, anchovies and artichoke hearts. Delicious! The charred hanger steak was perfectly cooked and lacked nothing! Michelle, our server, made it even more especial by being personal, prompt, attentive and very knowledgeable!

First trip here on Christmas Eve for an adventure and we were so impressed. The food was terrific and the wines (all Cooper Hawk) were very good (you never know about house wines). Great value as well. Four people with 2 appetizers, four entrees, one dessert, and 5 drinks averaged $60 per person. For the quality received and fun had was a very good value. Downsides a little louder environment than we might like but tolerable, and speed of service adequate but not special.

Wonderful experience!! We had a very sweet waitress that was very accommodating. She suggested the apple bourbon infusion and it was delicious!! Our shrimp and filet were cooked perfectly. Cappuccino and desserts were a perfect ending! The pecan pie mini was soo good we took two to go for later! We love this place!

This year, for the first time, I decided to skip the cooking and cleaning on Christmas Eve and take my family out to dinner. We chose The Capital Grille, and it exceeded every expectation! From the moment we walked in, the restaurant’s elegant and classic steakhouse ambiance set the tone for a special evening. Our waitress, Cat, made us feel completely at home—her warm and attentive service added such a personal touch to our experience. We started with wine and cocktails, which were perfectly balanced, and the calamari was simply delicious. The freshly baked bread was a hit, too! For our entrées, we ordered filet mignon, the Kona crusted strip, truffle fries, mashed potatoes, and mushrooms. My husband and I dine out fairly often, and we agreed the steak was exceptional—cooked to perfection with incredible flavor. My in-laws, who don’t go out to eat often, said it was the best steak they’ve ever had! This was such a treat for our family, and we can’t wait to go back. Thank you, Capital Grille, for making our Christmas Eve truly memorable!
