  It’s been a while since I’ve been back to Capital Grille—came here last week for a friend’s birthday and it wasn’t as excellent as I remembered. Food was okay. For appetizers, the Lobster & Crab Cakes were delicious! The Pan-Fried Calamari was just okay, not very crispy at all. For cocktails, they have a pretty generous pour. For entrees, would recommend the Seared Tenderloin with Butter Poached Lobster Tails and the Pan-Seared Sea Bass! The Sliced Filet Mignon was mediocre—the server suggested some glaze sauce but I wasn’t a big fan because it was too sweet. And nothing spectacular about the NY Strip au Poivre with Courvoisier Cream. The service was terrible. Our server must have gotten slammed with multiple tables at once because he was missing for a while. Two other staff members had to come help him (so that’s 3 servers total). Every time we wanted to order more drinks, we had to wait so long to get his attention. I had to ask for club soda 3 times. Our server must have felt bad about the service and offered a complimentary mashed potato dish for us—well turns out he ended charging us the dish in our bill (we didn’t notice until later). For desserts, we got the Cheesecake and Flourless Chocolate Expresso Cake—the cheesecake was good.

  My wife and I celebrated our 21st wedding anniversary here together and were doted on like a king and queen. If you’re looking for a memorable experience, The Capital Grille is the place to be. I absolutely loved the refined, yet welcoming atmosphere. Coupled with an amazing and attentive staff for the front of the house, our night was perfect to say the least. Abdul was exactly what I want in a server; personable, efficient, and not overly fussy. Abdul is hands down one of the best servers I’ve had in my dining experiences. We were also greeted by two of the managers who were very kind in wishing us a happy anniversary. The food. OMG the FOOD!!! Started with the Korean influenced pork belly and the tuna tartare. I don’t think a better pairing exists and I would/will most likely go back just to have drinks and eat these appetizers again. Amazing. My wife had a scallop and risotto dish that was to “simply to die for”, her words lol that was created by the Sous Chef Benton. I had the bone in veal tomahawk chop and I couldn’t have been more happy. Absolutely delicious. A myriad of sides to accompany with dessert/espresso at the end, what more could we ask for? I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone. You will not be disappointed. Absolutely stunning execution and attention to detail across the board. Thank you to everyone for making our anniversary “our night”. Can’t wait to see all of you again soon.

  We had a Birthday Lunch at Capital Grill in Bethesda. We were greeted at the entrance, wished Happy Birthday and escorted to our table. The table was decorated for my birthday. The food is excellent. Charles, our waiter spent time helping us. Birthday dessert was presented with a candle. Have a wonderful experience. Highly of recommend Capital Grill.

  What an incredible dining experience! Excellent service from our server Abdul and manager Scott who made us feel like celebrities from the wine selection recommendations to the complimentary drinks and dessert. We highly recommend coming here for any celebration, as the staff will make it memorable for years to come.
