    The Capital Grille is one of my favorite places to go to. The service is the very best. The waiters are so helpful and knowledgeable on everything from wine pairing to food choices. They never rush you. It's classic America food at its best. Always great music playing, Frank, Dean and Bobby Short. We met the Managing Partner Joffrey Reece, he was very nice and asked if you needed anything. The food is out of this world. Always some of the best meat cuts. A great wine choices and the deserts to die for. Thank you to the staff for always making a meal extra special.

    Came for our anniversary and had such a nice time! Our table was decorated with little heart confetti, a rose and a handwritten card. Our server was great and attentive - we were given complimentary amuse bouche. We got truffle fries, mac & cheese and steaks which were all great! To end the night, our server brought out a complimentary dessert (the creme brûlée was our fave!) 10/10 food and service!!!

    The service is good and the location is nice. The food is overly salted for my taste. From the spinach, potatoes, filet mignon, dry aged NY strip,... it was all exceptionally salty even when I asked for low to no salt each time I've been there. (I prefer different flavors, various seasonings, herbs and sauces). The drinks are good, as well as the flourless chocolate espresso cake.

    Lobster Mac and cheese

    Visited for a birthday celebration and I must say, the service is amazing. Our server went above and beyond to make our celebration special. We tried the tomahawk which was extremely juicy and tender. The lobster Mac and Cheese was absolutely delicious and creamy. We also tried their truffle Parmesan fries which had a really nice crunch to them. The passionfruit mojito and Paloma were perfect. Everything was delicious and every single staff member made us feel welcomed. Definitely a nice place for a special celebration, will be going back!

    High end sit down restaurant at the South Coast Plaza. Lots of business and more formal meals here. Can here with hubby and baby on a weekend and it was busy, but not packed. The service is top notch: staff constantly checks in to make sure all is good, the lunch menu is simple but efficient: burgers, sandwiches, salads...etc. we order their mini sandwich and classic burger, but we're decent. Truffle fries are a must! Good place to enjoy some nice ambience and good service with classic food.

    We came to The Capital Grille and it never disappoints. It's one of those classic spots you can always count on for a great experience. We ordered the 36oz bone-in ribeye and it was cooked perfectly, full of flavor, and definitely the star of the table. We also tried the lobster mac and cheese. It was good, but personally I would probably skip it next time and try something different. The asparagus was amazing, simple but done right. We also ordered a couple of mocktails that were refreshing and well balanced, which we really enjoyed. Service was great. Derek H. took really good care of us, attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience feel seamless. We requested a booth and they were able to accommodate us, which made it even better. Overall, this place continues to deliver. Great food, great service, and a classic ambiance that always makes it a solid choice.

    We were shopping in this mall, so we decided to stop by for dinner. The decor is dark and moody. It wasn't so busy, so we were seated right away. They brought out a variety of breads and crackers! We weren't too hungry, so we share the Parmesan truffle fries and a tomahawk. The steak was flavorful and fries were nicely seasoned. Service was attentive as well.

    Great spot for a date night, ordered the oysters the Paloma cocktail and the porcini crusted ribeye with the scalloped risotto. Our server was very friendly and they set up our table with a rose for our anniversary.

    My family and I have always been big fans of this restaurant, but unfortunately the last couple of visits have been disappointing. I do want to start by saying that the service has consistently been great--our server today was friendly and attentive, and we really appreciate that. However, the quality of the food doesn't seem to be what it used to be. Today we ordered the 33 oz Wagyu Tomahawk for $185. The price itself isn't the issue, but the portion size definitely didn't seem to match what was advertised. We were told it would be more than enough for three people, but by the end each person only ended up with about two slices. The flavor was just okay, and after a similar experience during our last visit in January, we left feeling unsatisfied again. After spending around $500, we're honestly considering ordering DoorDash because we're still hungry. We used to really enjoy coming here, so it's disappointing to feel like things have gone downhill over the past couple of months. I hope the restaurant can address the portion and quality issues because we'd love to have the experience we used to enjoy.

    Ive been to capital grill many times but night I went was WAYY different. Ive had a couple bad experiences, food coming late, cold, and bad waiters. But last night the service was phenomenal. I have to give special props to our waiters Tommie and Jorge for such a wonderful experience. If you ever get them to serve your table you better tip well!

    My husband and I have been celebrating our anniversary at Capital Grille for 12 yrs and service and quality have been the same. The staff always makes the day so memorable for us. We've been to other locations but this location is our go to since we traditionally do a little shopping first and end it with dinner. Our goal is to visit as many locations as possible. Food is amazing always! I go in thinking I'll try something different but I always order the rib eye and either the creamed corn, spinach, or lobster Mac and cheese. Recently, they added a caviar with chips and it's delicious. Off menu, a must order is the lobster bisque. You really can't go wrong with anything you order. I love this place and it holds a lot of memories for us. This place was our first date, where he proposed and where we celebrate every year.

    The Capital Grille always has incredible service and goes above and beyond to make your celebratory moments in life feel extra special. We've been going for years and each visit feels like a great experience at a familiar friend's house (albeit a fancy friend haha). My repeat orders are: Blackberry Bourbon Sidecar - a very well balanced drink that's not too sweet and very easy to drink. Parmesan Truffle Fries: a must-order, although the recent addition of Duck Fat Fries definitely gives it a run for its money. Maine Lobster Salad: especially on warm days, this is such a refreshing and delicious option. Generous chunks of perfectly prepared lobster with avo, tomatoes, and arugula. Perfect! Lobster Mac N Cheese: although it's part of the dinner menu, I even order this when I'm there for lunch and The Capital Grille is kind enough to accommodate. A decadent and elevated version of Mac N Cheese and a must try if you love lobster. For entrees their steaks are always prepared accurately based on our requests and we love their high quality ingredients and attention to detail. Highly recommend visiting The Capital Grille the next time you want to celebrate or are just feeling like a special treat!

    Is it possible to order the creamed corn at lunch time or is it a dinner-only item?

    You can order it at any time

    Is there a dress code?

    No, not a formal written one. But the wait and service staff dress fairly nicely. Semi-formal California casual dress clothes should suffice.

    Are we allowed to order from dinner menu during lunch time? Thank you!

    I don't have an actual answer, but I don't think it matters because the lunch menu is VERY extensive. And fabulous! (I just wish they opened earlier, like 9 or 10am.)

    Is there a dress code?

    Not that I am aware of as king as you pay after the meal service :)... I say, looking sharp is always better in life and life is short so better look good !

    Hi, Do you have happy hour?

    No. And they never will

    Is there a corkage fee?

    Yes it's $40.00

    No one seems to answer or know…what is the corkage fee?

    $25

    Reservations are highly recommended for dinner service. This place is popular. Arriving early for lunch, you may not need reservations.

    What is the corkage fee per bottle of wine?

    $25

    No, they're on the 2nd floor on top of Seasons 52

    Hello. Is a kids menu offered for dinner service r for children?

    They actually will compliment your child or a special diet. They made my daughter(12) a vegetarian meal and although my son(7) didn't utilize it they offered him a very kid friendly meal. I do agree it's not necessarily a family friendly atmosphere… 

    Is there news on when the location for downtown Los Angeles will open?

    Thank you for the question and excitement, T.B! We hope to open our new Downtown LA location early… 

    Is patio seating or dine in?

    Patio

    Hi this will be our first time dining here what is the attire?

    It's a casual steakhouse, as far as I can tell they do not have a formal dress code. I've seen people in sweats and I've seen people in full suits. So wear whatever gives you more room for steak 😊

    Are you open for dine in?

    Yes, we are, Tamlyn. You may review our up-to-the-minute availability and make a reservation by visiting: https://www.thecapitalgrille.com/reservations… 

    Is porterhouse enough for two?

    Absolutely. My husband and I have shared it many times. They will cut and plate it nicely for you to share on two separate plates. It's both the strip and bone-in filet. They charge the same amount for a bone-in filet, which is the exact same thing…

The tiered stands are a feast: delicate finger sandwiches, scones with clotted cream and jam, exquisite little pastries and macarons, all elegantly presented and genuinely delicious. The tea selection is excellent, and everything tastes as refined as it looks. What keeps me coming back, beyond the quality, is the service.

I understand it's summer and these things can happen, but I expected a more polished environment from a Michelin-starred restaurant.

Because of that, we ended up sitting at a bar-top table, which was not where we wanted to sit. What was frustrating was that we were there for approximately an hour and a half, and during that entire time several individual patrons came and went from the bar, yet the party we were told had reserved those seats never showed up. It left us wondering why we couldn't have simply been seated at the bar in the first place. Unfortunately, the bartender was not very welcoming from the moment we arrived, and throughout our visit she repeatedly seemed to be watching our table, which made us feel uncomfortable. That being said, our waiter Brandon was AMAZING and completely changed the experience for us. He was genuinely sweet, attentive, gave us great recommendations, and made sure our waters were always filled. He provided exactly the kind of warm, professional service you expect when visiting Morton's. Brandon deserves 5 stars. I just wish our initial experience at the bar had matched the level of service he provided.

Jimmy nardello peppers- fun to eat Scrambled egg agnolotti- unique flavor Pork tomahawk - perfectly cooked and seasoned! Maitake mushrooms - such a fun dish to eat! Salted corn senifreddo- just try it :) Service was a 10. Food was creative, fun, and delicious!

    my ratings are usually based on my overall experience (food/ambiance/service/location) and darkroom…read moreleft me confused and with lots of questions. service was good. servers were attentive and knowledgeable about current menu (menu does change often except for some staple dishes). per server, ingredients are farm to table. i did enjoy the food-- rating from most to least favorite 1. tuna carpaccio $28 - light and refreshing. i enjoyed the bits of fruits 2. egg agnolotti $26 - loved this! it didn't taste "eggy" at all. very creamy and not doesn't taste "heavy" in ingredients 3. king salmon $44 4. ricotta donuts $15 5. caesar $26 - i like the herbs on here but it has way more cheese than i would like i do not agree with price points. $26 for 4 little gems that you're supposed to eat like a taco? $15 for 6 donut holes? Mmm what left me confused and with questions: is this a casual establishment? fine dining? it looks kinda nice but kinda not? there's a "nice" bar area but the servers are in wrinkled t-shirts, aprons, and hair in messy buns? there's an area with vinyls but the rest of the restaurant seems to be out of place? they have romantic table lamps and black silverware but the chairs remind me of the chairs at shakey's pizza. there were people in tanks and shorts and then some dressed really nice. the ambiance is left to be a confused teenager trying to figure out their identity. it truly felt like 93% of the budget went to food ingredients and 7% went to everything else. i had a good time.. but was it worth $280 of a time?
