| - I took advantage of the restaurant week to try out this restaurant.
There are several other steak restaurants closer to my house and never had an opportunity to try this location.. After my visit, why did I wait so long to try here?
They have complimentary valet, and I recommend using this service. Parking across is $2 or free with validated ticket for up to two hours, or park so far away and walk... or just pull up by the entrance and enjoy great valet service. When we finished dining, the server suggested to give the valet ticket to him so by the time we were outside, the car was already ready waiting and we didn't have to wait for a few mins. Very nice service, especially when I didn't want to walk more than 10 steps with my heels.
We arrived a few mins before our reservation time. It was Saturday peak dinner and they were busy. We found two stools in the bar area and started enjoying our drink. The bartender was very nice and offered complimentary bar nuts. They were sweet and spicy, so yummy I thought I could get addicted to this nuts.
They had our table ready 20 mins after our original reservation time, and apologized for the delay. They offer black or white linen cloth napkins depending on the colors of your clothes.
For the restaurant week 2015 menu, they have a choice of salad (wedge or caesar) or soup. Entree of two types of steak, fish, and can't remember the last one. Entree comes with two side dishes of mushed potato and sauteed green beans. To finish the meal, they had three different choice of desert.
Wedge salad I had was very good, creamy dressing complimented lettuces and crispy bacon. I actually became full just after finishing the salad. (Must be the bar nuts? or could be large lunch I had earlier). I ate about 1/3 of my steak. Too bad I wasn't hungry enough to finish it. They used very good beef. I could taste a very good beef. I asked them to put my desert to go as I couldn't even eat my steak, but I tasted my friend's desert, Crème brûlée. They were really good. I ate my desert a day later, and my espresso cake was good as well.
Service was excellent. I mean really excellent. I can't even find one thing to complain. Capital Grille is located throughout the United States. If the service and food is consistent everywhere, this will be a great place to dine for many different occasions.
