My favorite yelp event next to the Science Center event last year....and quite the opposite.
Very intimate feel, the whole dining area was opened up to make room for us and we were offered a cocktail/glass of wine upon entering. (Nice touch, makes me feel like I'm entering a "Real Housewives of the Depths of Hell" mansion party and I LOVED IT)
The wine was flowing and the food was fantastic! My better half and I enjoyed Crab Cake Sliders, Mini Tenderloin Sandwiches, JUMBO shrimp cocktail and wayyyyyyy to many little Coconut Cream pies. Those little pie babies were like heroin...and not that nasty black tar shit either, the good stuff.
It was nice to see the sweet as pie Gabi M., looking absolutely smashing for just having a baby by the way. Actually, she looked like a person that didn't just have a baby so kudos woman!!
The staff and service was outstanding. We had quite a few conversations with the staff and Sommelier regarding the wine menu and events and they were all knowledgeable and incredibly polite without being obnoxiously formal. It appears that they have a good read on their clientele and that's a plus in my book. All class, no sass. This experience will definitely bring us back to The Capital Grille for drinks, lunch or dinner.
Had a blast and I look forward to the next event!
