Parking can be a bit of a problem but well worth the effort. Service and food has always been great and you can’t beat the atmosphere for a romantic dinner. Caper’s is our go to restaurant for anniversaries.

What an amazing evening from the Bourbon bar (with a dozen fresh oysters) to our dinner, all was perfection. The staff is attentive and seems to anticipate your every need. And the food? Prepare to be dazzled and satiated. While this is not an inexpensive restaurant, the value and experience is well worth the investment.

Our dinner was excellent. The braised ox tail was particularly noteworthy. The highlight of our meal may have been dessert. The pumpkin flan let us know there is creative culinary talent in the kitchen.

About the restaurant

The Capital Bar & Grill may be the embodiment of Capital’s Southern Comfortable culinary vision focusing on provincial comfort food with a particular emphasis on the bounty of Arkansas. The tools of the bar include the most sought-after liquors, mixers and ingredients. In sort of a back-to-the-future twist, it has been a devotion to handmade classic and custom cocktails (the Aviation vs. the Cropduster) that has established Capital Bar as a nationally-regarded spirits destination. All this said, we strive to create a fun, relaxing experience for all of our guests: The friendly atmosphere is especially suited to business lunches, after-work drinks and get-togethers, as well as special date nights.
