Make it a day to remember. From birthdays and anniversaries to professional milestones, we aim to make every gathering special at The Capital Grille. Open seven days a week, The Capital Grille is best known for our expertly prepared steaks, which are dry aged in house for 18 to 24 days and then hand-cut by our restaurant's on-premise butcher. The Capital Grille's wine list features more than 350 selections, and its floor-to-ceiling wine kiosk regularly houses 3,500 - 5,000 bottles. Reservations are recommended but not required. For more information, please visit our website. We look forward to delighting you.

    We got a reservation on a Sunday evening. Our meals arrived quicker than we expected and were cooked as we ordered. We had more food than we could eat. The service was excellent.

    Unfortunately seated near the entrance to the restroom which decreases the typical Capitol Grille experience.
