Filet Sliders with Parmesan Truffle Fries
Sheri J.

Corporate/chain or not this is one of the best steak restaurants around. Cozy steakhouse environment. The food and service are always impeccable. On our last visit our server Michael could not have been more attentive. Lunch is a great value but dinner is well worth the $. Two of us split a perfectly cooked Porterhouse that was sliced for sharing. The sides were enough to feed 4 or more. Even though we shared the steak and sides, we still had plenty of leftovers to enjoy the next day. Start to finish Capital Grille never ceases to impress. Great place for a special occasion or no occasion at all. Just go and enjoy.

Caramelized French Onion Soup crock

We celebrated our engagement at Capital Grille, and it was the perfect night! Crystal went above and beyond to make our celebration so special with her exceptional service and thoughtful touches. We started with the calamari and French onion soup, then enjoyed the porcini rubbed bone in ribeye with creamed spinach and garlic confit. Everything was absolutely delicious! To finish the evening, Crystal surprised us with complimentary champagne, a crème brûlée cheesecake, and a flourless chocolate cake to celebrate our engagement. Such a thoughtful touch! Highly recommend Capital Grille, and if you go, be sure to ask for Crystal. She made our experience unforgettable!

I have been to the Boca mall a million times and never have given this place a second thought. I received a gift card and decided to pop in for lunch. WOW. They do have a dress code, however I noticed it wasn't strictly enforced for lunch luckily for me who popped in before a shopping trip. The staff was all incredibly friendly. Every single person I encountered smiled and gave a polite greeting, making me feel warm and welcome. The menu itself was small but I had a difficult time choosing what to get because everything looked incredible. The food was carefully crafted with bold flavors!!! Even the cocktail menu was impressive. I ended up opting for the rib eye sandwich. This was literally a GIANT, juicy rib eye steak on a fresh baguette topped with cheese and onions. It was absolutely amazing. The truffle fries on the side were crispy and phenomenal. My meal was perfect. I would order this again in a heartbeat!!! My husband got the chicken sandwich and his meal was equally gargantuan. While we did visit for lunch, I do believe this would be a lovely place for dinner. It's upscale, intimate, and ritzy appearance make this a great choice for a date night. There are not too many places this classy around!

The Grille Signature Cheeseburger
Michelle F.

This is really 3.5 stars but the service from the hostesses to our nice server, Mason. It is odd, but I can't remember if I ever ate at a Capital Grille before yesterday. I don't think I had. I made a reservation and indicated this dinner would be for my Mom's birthday. They put some confetti and a card on the table which was very nice. Originally we ordered tap water but it tasted bad. So, we ordered a bottle of Acqua Panna water. I was surprised how bad the tap water was. The bread was interesting. They gave a lot of flatbread/matzo type of thing. The brown bread with cranberries was pretty good. The other bread was ok. I really only liked the dark bread. I usually love all bread. Anyway, I ordered the signature cheeseburger with shallot aioli on the side and parmesan truffle fries. The fries were served hot but my burger wasn't even warm. Same with Mom's filet mignon and mashed potatoes. We were asked if we wanted the food heated up so of course we said yes. Her mashed potatoes came back the same barely warm temperature. Her steak was pretty hot now. I took a bite of both and the potatoes are ok. I feel like I can make them better which isn't saying much! The steak was high quality but had no flavor. Luckily she liked it. My burger was good once heated up. The fries were good. They had just the right amount of truffle which was good because I like.truffle, I don't love it. Mason brought a nice dessert platter. It had a mini cheesecake and the flour less espresso chocolate cake. Both were good. I definitely didn't expect to like the espresso cake sinceI am not a fan of coffee. There was a pretty fresh flower arrangement in the bathroom. That is appreciated. I was annoyed most of our food came out not hot. I appreciate the nice service but I will not come back. There are too many better restaurants in my opinion. I actually felt bad because this was a birthday meal and it just didn't measure up. How and why would they serve food that had to have been sitting around? Bring the food out when it is ready. The restaurant was not super busy either.

10 ounce filet mignon with mashed potatoes
Nola F.

My daughter took me here for my birthday a few days ago. I haven't eaten at a Capital Grille on ages. I wanted to come here because I remember I enjoyed my experience thr last time. As far as ambiance, it feels stuffy to me. We did have a very nice server named Mason. I was going to get a small salad but none of them appealed to me. I ordered the q0 ounce filet mignon with mashed potatoes. Ad stated on the menu, they are made simply. I liked them a lot. I also enjoyed my steak. The bad part was my meal along with my daughter's burger was not really even warm. This food must have been sitting around a while. This should not happen at this type of restaurant or really any restaurant. When the food came back, I did enjoy it. The restaurant gave me a nice dessert platter. It was espresso chocolate cake with cheesecake. There was also fresh whipped cream. I loved the cheesecake and ate most of that and some of the chocolate cake. It was still a nice meal but annoying that almost no effort was made to bring out hot meals.

Asparagus with Parmesan cheese

I thought I already left a note for this, but this place was amazing! I was so excited that we were able to try out their front room as we are typically in the dining room. Instead, when we arrived, the two of us were whisked away in front of the bar towards the front of the restaurant. It was so quiet back there, such a contrast to the bustling restaurant. Waiter we had was terrific, very friendly and informative without being pushy, and very attentive. We were delighted to eat the special of the day along with a bottle of wine and cheesecake to go. Everything here was done very professionally, making us feel special,, although for what we were paying, we'd better feel special! All in all a great place

Dry Aged Bone-In NY strip with shallot butter and Kona rub
Tammy C.

This was my first time experience at The Capital Grille. Located in the city of Boca Raton and it is an American restaurant chain. It's an upscale steakhouse owned by the Darden brand. It was definitely an elegant and elite restaurant experience. I had the Chef recommendation which was the Kona Crusted Dry Aged Bone-In NY Strip with Shallot butter. It had a signature Hawaiian Kona coffee rub on the outside and the cuts are carved on premises. The flavor was so unique and delicious plus grilled to perfection. The interior decor was elegant with dim lighting that created a relaxing atmosphere. The service was superb. Everything was brought out hot and fresh. It did take awhile for the food to come out which gave me a chance to enjoy every sip of the wine even more. If course the prices are up there. À la carte items are served for the table which are a larger portion. Hopefully I will back soon to enjoy another nice meal.

I came here with my cousin to celebrate her birthday. Im usually a Ruth Chris kind of girl. I was SOOOO pleasantly surprised by a dessert that I love and is rarely made to my liking. They had the absolute BEST creme brûlée ive ever had in my life. I learned that the pastry chef has been there many years and makes the creme brûlée herself everyday. HOW AWESOME IS THAT!?

Grapefruit soda
Lore G.

Great time and good company! I'd always heard about the steaks at The Capital Grille and finally tried them and they did not disappoint. Stopped in for lunch with a couple of drinks (homemade grapefruit soda and lemonade were both excellent). The bread came out warm and fresh. We ordered the filet mignon and the dry-aged NY strip , both cooked perfectly medium, good and balanced seasoning .The sides were creamy mashed potatoes and truffle fries. The mashed potatoes were so creamy and delicious. Service was excellent, attentive and right on time. Finished with an espresso and a cheesecake with fresh fruit, which was a perfect ending. The vibe is elegant yet comfortable, with classic décor, paintings, and a warm atmosphere. Definitely a place worth coming back to! Pricing is definitely on the higher side (around $130 for two), but you get what you pay for here , great steaks, excellent service, and a classy atmosphere.

The food was superb as we have found in other Capital Grilles; actually it couldn't be better. On the other hand, the service was very disappointing. On the positive side...for a starter, I had the calamari. It was prepared in a unique way with sweet peppers & the proper amount of crisp. Perfect . The wedge salad was spot-on. The bacon topping was very unique: meaty without fat and just the proper amount of dressing. The filet was cooked to perfection and tender. The best. For dessert, the lemon coconut (can't recall the name) was delightful! Now the service.... We pointed out to each other at the onset that the service was superb, but found that the server's great personality was what seemed to fool us. He turned out to be a bumpkin. When you pay a premium for food, one expects premium service. The server made a few unfortunate errors. - first, he was replacing an empty glass of iced tea and spilled the FULL glass onto my wife's blouse and dress shorts...a complete full glass! Ok, things happen, but it took what seemed too long for him to return with cloth napkins to soak it up. There was just too much mess, so a few minutes later we asked for another table. We were accommodated. Unbelievably, no manager came by to apologize. - we asked for more bread before the salads came out. The server related he would bring some. Bus-sers brought the salads, but no bread. We thought that the waiter would be bringing it, but it never came. We ate our salads without bread & reminded the waiter of this. What would we have done if my wife's clothes were ruined? There was no report as no manager came. Fortunately, the cleaner was able to get the stains out. She was soaked though. The food again was delicious. Service, not so much.

birthday dessert
Christine S.

Service is always impeccable at the Capital Grille. The new 3-6 pm happy hour includes a lite bite menu. We had some hits (lamb chops, wow!) and some misses (crab cake was fishy) They have a great menu of wines by the glass. Comfy bar chairs and friendly staff make it welcoming whether you come alone or with friends. They surprised me with this birthday dessert. I don't normally eat sugar but we ate every delicious bite, so tasty, not too sweet.

Parmesan Truffle Fries
Stacie V.

I've heard great things about this place. They did not disappoint. The service was excellent the food was delicious. The area was very calm relaxing and comfortable. They are pricey BUT every item is well worth it. The steak was perfectly made and seasoned. The truffle fries were so good. The crab/lobster cake was amazing. Everything was great.

Crème brûlée
Angela L.

I had to run some errands at the mall and stopped in. We were a party of 3 and walked in without a reservation. We were seated right away. Service was great. The server came by several times to make sure we were okay. The food was worth it. The experience was a great one as well. The mashed potatoes were super creamy. The desserts were delicious but my favorite was the creme brulee with the berries.

I have been wanting to try 60 vines for a while. I recently attended a private baby shower event…read morebeing hosted here in the Boca location, although there are other locations, including Fort Lauderdale. During the event, we sampled a couple of different items that were shared at each table, including some burger bites, and different pasta options. The pesto pasta was my favorite! The servers were really great and quick with any request from the guests. They have at least two private rooms at this location for private events off to the side from the main dining area. One has natural light with a lot of windows, which is where this baby shower was held. The other one is more closed off without natural lighting. Not sure the price point as I was just a guest, but everything was really beautiful and I believe there was about 20 to 25 guest in attendance for this private room.

We arrived and had a reservation and still had to wait 15 mins for our table to be ready and we were only a group of 4 people and our waitress seemed a bit annoyed we all ordered the girl dinner special which is $35 each and kept trying to upsell us on more drinks and dessert or appetizers. The salad was ok and the French fries were a bit cold. The frozen espresso martini was the only highlight of the meal but nothing else was spectacular. I wish we would have gone somewhere else for dinner since nothing was great and pretty expensive for the price and the service was subpar.

It was tasty, but for the price point its size was a little disappointing. I didn't love the experience, but I didn't dislike it either. There are plenty of vegetarian options and that's always a plus. One other thing to note: the fork that was in the napkin placed at the table was VERY dirty. Not something you typically see at a nice restaurant.

What can I say about Lynora's that hasn't already been said? That name carries some weight. It's…read morebeen a local favorite in Palm Beach County for quite some time, serving Italian-inspired fare in a casual, welcoming setting. From sandwiches and pizza to pasta, there's a little something for everyone. But here's the thing about Lynora's: I think it's about more than just the food. It's about the act of coming together. You can see it in the dining room, where young and old, casual diners and folks celebrating big occasions, are all enjoying themselves under one roof. There's something to be said for a place that can bring that kind of variety of people together. Now, that doesn't mean the food takes a back seat entirely. The brunch, pizza and lasagna are definitely standouts and give you a good reason to come back. The chicken parm sub, however, was a bit of a letdown. It lacked seasoning, and the marinara was too sparse to bring the sandwich together the way it should. Still, I walked away appreciating what Lynora's represents. Not every restaurant needs to be a culinary revelation. Sometimes, a place earns its reputation by being somewhere people genuinely want to gather, celebrate, and spend time together. And Lynora's seems to understand that pretty well.

It's hard to say a bad thing about Lynora's. It's become a go to stop in for us…read more We were there just last week to have a beverage and chit chat, instead of going to the gym. A win for us that day. We have almost always gone with a spot at the bar. I think a table once or twice. Its a nice oaken bar, great spot to hang. Usually we get a glass of wine, they have a few good ones by the glass. On this day I wanted something sweet(other days I have gotten a dirty martini), so I got the Pistacchio Espresso Martini. I'm not sure if they misspell it on purpose, but I dig it. It's not too sweet, and is apparently strained with pistachios as the final product has bits of them in the drink. It's a friendly bar, and we have never found it to be loud. I think I've chatted up a few strangers there that were nice people. This day there was only 2 sperate chairs and a guy between them offered and moved over before I could even ask. It's nice that there is a couple backup spots within distance, but if you can get a spots at Lynora's you are doing good.
