   First, the waiter (Danny) and his assistant (don’t recall his name) were great. Both attentive and super friendly. Unfortunately, between the wait staff and the truffle fries, those were the only positives. We were sat 15min late against our 6:30 reservation (wasn’t even that crowded). It took 25 minutes to get drinks and about 15 minutes to get bread. Dinner took another 45 minutes. The food was fine. Not great, not bad. The truffle fries were an exception. Then, we ordered desert and 2 coffees. The coffee didn’t come until we were done with the dessert. The restaurant did comp those, but clearly the reason we were sat late is that their food staff is underwhelming or understaffed. We were excited to try something new, but likely won’t be back. Given the cost, I’d expect way more. Thanks Danny for trying!

   Elegant atmosphere. Food is outstanding. Waitress was friendly and attentive. Pricey, but if that is not a problem, well worth it.

   No longer need to go to Center City to get a great steak and eat in a beautiful, classy restaurant. The food and service were superb. Fantastic cocktails. Great menu with a wide selection of appetizers and salads as well as entrees. Loved the wedge and the steak was prepared perfectly. Save room for dessert - highly recommend the coconut custard pie.

   My wife and I had Christmas Eve dinner. While it was noisy because it was crowded, it was festive and a wonderful holiday experience. The food and service were excellent. They restaurant ran out of rolls and was baking more. They told us and we waited patiently. As we finished our drinks, hot rolls appeared at our table, freshly baked and delicious. This is our second time dining at the restaurant and they did not disappoint. My wife and I will definitely be back.

   We were seated in a booth in the bar area—low noise level, excellent service-shout out to Joy! Food was fabulous and gluten free menu available. Expensive but worth it

   For special occasions, or just when you want to treat yourself to some luxury, the Capital Grille - Newtown is an excellent choice. The food, service and ambience all make a diner feel special. Every course we had was superb and the staff was super attentive. Dining here requires a bit of an investment but it is worth it. We will definitely return in the future.
