"We are big fans of Capital Grill and enjoy it for lunch, drinks, dinners, & special occasions. 5 stars! because they deliver all the goods ... food quality, service, professional grade staff, location, and ambience.\n\nSo, let's compare and contrast them to the competition; Ruth's Chris, Fleming's, Morton's, McCormick and Schmick's, Sullivan's, Chima, and BLT Steak.\n\nRuth's Chris ... feels like a prom-night teen dinner experience in comparison\n\nFleming's ... waaaay over-rated and unpolished, a tourist village, the fifties called and they want their restaurant back\n\nMorton's ... elite, but stop pitching it to me, I'm already sitting at the table\n\nMcCormick and Schmick's ... eating fish in a large cafeteria setting with cheap carpeting\n\nSullivan's Steakhouse ... the opposite of Capital Grill, all-around bad\n\nChima Brazilian Steakhouse ... all you can stand to eat of B-level cuisine \n\nBLT Steak ... their core competency is running a great hotel\n\nYou get the idea. I'm hard to please and I really like Capital Grill. The only minor ding I have for them is this. My wife and I have dined here for fifteen years; everything from late lunches to very special occasions. Why is it every time we are seated, the first question is; \"have you dined with us before?\""^^ .
