    Grilled Asparagus with Lemon Mosto
    Brittany G.

    The Capital Grille never disappoints. It's always a classy, dependable choice with an incredible ambiance and consistently knowledgeable, friendly service. We kicked things off with cocktails--my margarita was perfectly balanced, and my friend's Paloma was just as refreshing. They definitely don't skimp on the liquor... For starters, we tried the calamari and oysters--both were absolutely delicious and new to me. I'll definitely order them again! I had the ahi tuna for my entrée, and it was cooked to perfection--flavorful, tender, and beautifully presented. My friend ordered the filet, which was equally impressive. The sides deserve their own praise: creamy mashed potatoes and perfectly cooked asparagus rounded out the meal. I can't wait to return. The Capital Grille continues to set the standard.

    All I can say is money well spent! The crunchy fried calamari and peppers was the perfect appetizer. Now the steaks !!! Omg ! They were cooked perfectly and tasted fantastic. Sides of mashed potatoes and creamy spinach casserole were perfect accompaniment for the steaks. The dessert of cheesecake and flourless chocolate cake ended our perfect dinner !

    Parking is easy as there is an underground garage that connects directly to the restaurant via an elevator. They do validate a little but it's not completely covered. The inside of the restaurant is really special. You get an old time restaurant feel with some modern fixtures. The service was excellent throughout our dining experience. Our server was knowledgeable and friendly. We stated with a bottle of wine and the calamari. There is a wide selection of wine. The calamari was excellent and the peppers really added a dimension to the appetizer. For entrees I ordered the New York strip with the au poivre and courvoisier sauce which was cooked to a medium rare perfection and exceptionally tender. I thought the au poivre and sauce were nice accompaniments to the steak. We shared some well cooked asparagus and the lobster Mac and cheese which had good chunks of lobster in it. For dessert we had the chocolate cake which was moist and chocolatey with a silky smooth ice cream to go with it. Highly recommend your next steakhouse adventure be at the Capital Grille.

    We got there early so we didn't have to wait for a table, our waitress was Andrea, she was the best five stars just to her. Everything was so delicious. I would definitely recommend this location.

    My husband and I came out for a date night and decided on Capital Grille. I'm so glad we did. I can't speak about the food without mentioning the truly amazing service we received from Andy and his team. Andy guided us towards the most amazing food choices. I'm so glad we trusted his judgment and tweaks to our orders. To start, we had the tuna tartare and the wedge salad. They split the wedge salad for us so we each had our own plate, and it was honestly so delicious. It had this thick-cut bacon that was cooked to perfection, and the blue cheese dressing was a dream. The tuna tartare had great balance with the mango sauce and sriracha, and it melted in your mouth. For mains, we were going to have the Kona crusted ribeye and the sliced filet, but we were both on the fence about it. I had my eye on the filet with the Gorgonzola crust and the red wine reduction, and then Andy raved about the porcini crusted ribeye. We ended up eating the above and truly enjoyed it. The steaks were cooked to perfection, and the flavors were unmatched. At this point, we were convinced that Andy knows best and asked him about dessert. He mentioned his favorite was the crème brûlée, so we ordered just that. It truly has to be the best crème brûlée we've had. The brûlée layer was thin and toasted to perfection while the crème was thick and flavorful. Thank you for truly amazing service and delicious food.

    Nice ambiance, good food, wonderful service. Our waiter was Giancarlo and he was wonderful. He made great knowledgeable recommendations. He described things perfectly which guided our decisions and our selections did not disappoint. Like Giancarlo we have tried Wagyu in Japan, as well as Kobe and other Japanese Wagyu and other American Wagyu, and some have been disappointing that I have not been interested in trying another American Wagyu. He described it as mix of Japanese and American Wagyu so at $95 I gave it a try and it was delicious. It is not over priced. It is slightly higher cost than the non Wagyu but it is worth it. The bacon was good. Not too sweet, not overly crispy. He described the type of lobster they cart bring South African and having the best texture and flavor and my husband said he was not disappointed he enjoyed his lobster tail. We enjoyed the asparagus. The only thing we did not enjoy was the Brussels sprouts. I typically love Brussels sprouts but these weren't crispy enough and the glaze was very sweet and thick. The flourless cake was surprisingly delicious. Better than cakes with flour that I've had. It wasn't crumbly, it was decadent. The cheesecake was also good. There were some other selections that sounded interesting so I would come back to try them. I think the service put them over the top to a 5 rating for us. Thank you Giancarlo.

    Wedge with Bleu Cheese and Smoked Bacon

    Celebrated an anniversary at The Capital Grille and the experience could not have been better. Service was fantastic, the manager checking in multiple times and the staff going out of their way to make it feel special. We were very grateful for the extra touches that made the night memorable. We went with the Miami Spice menu and kicked things off with their bread service, which is honestly one of my favorites anywhere. I had the wedge salad, and everything about it was spot on -- crisp lettuce, smoky bacon, and a dressing that was downright divine. For my entrée, I got the upcharge Kona Crusted Dry Aged NY Strip, and it absolutely hit the spot. The sides were classic! Dessert was the Flourless Chocolate Espresso Cake, and while there's no photo proof (because it was devoured the second it hit the table), trust me when I say it was my absolute favorite bite of the evening. Rich and decadent Overall, The Capital Grille delivered a flawless anniversary dinner, excellent service, great ambiance, and food that reliable lives up to the occasion.

    This Capital Grille is in Brickell! To park, you would go in the garage and I believe valet is the only option in here with the easiest entrance. The valet has an elevator that leads right to the lobby/hostess stand of the restaurant. We were a bit early for our dinner reservation so we decided to walk around the area outside. When it was time, we were seated promptly. When I made the reservation, I let them know we were celebrating something & we were greeted with little confetti on the table and a nice greeting card. I didn't know we could be specific of what we were celebrating on the reservation but our server let me know we could so they could help us celebrate accordingly. The dinner was great! Our server was super attentive and helpful. When we were looking over the menu, we almost got carried away but he helped us slim down our order with half sizes of some of the shareable plates. So grateful he did that because we almost ordered a feast and, even with the half orders, we took a lot home! If there's ever anything I can recommend getting here, it would be the Kona-crusted dry aged bone-in NY Strip steak. It is sooooo good and a reason we will come back time and again. Although this place is a fine dining pricey spot, it recommend coming here for special occasions. They really know how to make you feel loved, even with the small things such as a greeting. They even surprised us with a complimentary dessert with the word, "congrats" on it in celebration. Overall, a five-star experience at this Capital Grille.

    Impeccable service and attention to detail. Love getting a bottle of red wine and enjoying their Ribeye or filet mignon. Go to appetizers: crab and lobster cake. Sides: lobster mac and cheese. Great spot to celebrate birthdays and special occasions. Servers go above and beyond. Really appreciate the staff and hospitality here!

    Six years later and Capital Grille is STILL 5 stars! I met up with a few foodie friends last weekend originally intending to take part in their Generous Pour wine tasting. However, we just ended up enjoying one bottle and trying the delicious plethora of classic steakhouse side dishes. First of all, make sure to enjoy their brown bread with the slightly sweet table butter. Our waiter was pretty attentive in keeping the bread basket and even extra butter refilled. He was also great on recommendations. As far as side dishes, my favorite were the prosciutto-wrapped mozzarella with tomatoes in a rich and sweet balsamic vinegar. All were a grand introduction to my main course, their sliced filet mignon with fig essence. Served in a bed of fresh greens with cippolinni onions (the little ones) and mushrooms, this juicy and tender cut of steak (even though it was a little on the medium side) was the reason you meet with friends at a classic steakhouse for! I enjoyed it with a smattering of their aromatic truffle fries, along with my wine. Dessert was a creme brulee with a lightly crispy crust just like i love! Make sure to save space for that.

    This is my third time here but first time in a couple years. I think The Capital Grille is slept on, maybe because it's a chain, but the food and service here is always top tier! Don't let looks deceive you, TCG is tucked away by the Brickell Ave bridge and looks like it might be empty but as soon as you walk in you realize they are busy! Make sure to make an appointment and keep a lookout on specials. They typically participate in Miami Spice and have a great Generous Pour special if you're a wine lover! The ambiance takes me back to living in DC, where many restaurants have a similar vibe! They also have a private room of you need a space for a business meal or event! Highly recommended!

    Came in to capital grille the night after our wedding in our newlyweds bliss. When I tell you our experience was outstanding it's not an exaggeration! They seated us in a cozy booth that made the entire experience much more intimate, even found the table decorated with roses. In terms of service, our waiter was fantastic. So sweet, gave great suggestions and gave us just the right about of attention and a lone time. He gets a 10/10 for sure. Food wise, the filet mignon was cooked to perfection and the au gratin potatoes were the perfect balance of cheesy and soft! We left with our hearts full and our stomach even more full! This is an upscale steak house so the price reflects that, but for the experience we had it was worth every penny!! Great evening and happy we made a reservation here!

    Will there be a Christmas Eve menu this year? Any special pricing?

    Dress code for weekday? d

    They have a sign outside that basically says "thank you for not dressing like a slob" but I saw people in shorts and hats in there like they just came from the gym so, as long as you're not naked you should be ok

    Do they have a happy hour? Details.

    I love wine and I love Magie wine bar…read more What a gem of a place that embraces the neighborhood, has an incredible wine selection, and the perfect vibes for any occasion. I've been visiting a lot recently, and even joined their wine club which offers two curated wines a month. Locally owned and operated, I feel really good supporting a place that the owners put so much effort into to offer such a gem of a spot for locals. I've tried a lot of wines here, and I'm always amazed at finding something new to me that I enjoy. If you haven't been, it's the perfect place for a date, a girls night, or a day for yourself. They also have good snacks and charcuterie for you to munch on while you drink vino. Don't know much about wine? No problem. Their team will point you in the right direction and they have something for everyone. This is an approachable wine bar- they want you to enjoy the wine as much as they do and I love that about Magie. This spot has a nice indoor space and a beautiful outdoor area. They also have a sister location in the Grove.

There is a parking lot right on the side of the building, but if that lot is full, there is also street parking, and parking across the street in a lot behind the Citadel. The service here was great! All of the staff were very nice and welcoming. The set up of the lounge is also very cozy. There is plenty of space for people to sit whether you're on a date or with a small group, but seating is first come first serve, so if you're coming with a group it's better to get there earlier in the evening so you have a space comfortable enough for the size of your group. There is also indoor and outdoor seating which is nice. There are many wines to choose from and they also have a decent menu with light bites. We opted for the Dino nuggets and caviar which were a hit, the fried olives and some meats and cheeses with some cornishons, fig jam and a sliced baguette. Overall this place has a great vibe to it and I heard they host events every so often. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a nice space to chill with some friends and enjoy a nice spot in Miami.

The first location in the River is better imo because the location is bigger, there is plenty more seating than the Grove location. Although, I still enjoyed my time at this location as well. Sooo how it works is that you go inside and pick a bottle of wine from the fridges. You can also order by the glass if you aren't a big drinker or if you want to try different wines. The bottles are moderately priced depending on your selection. We chose an orange wine and it was nice, very refreshing, you can really get that citrus essence with every sip. Another thing that they have is that you can pick different cheeses and meats and they will build you a charcuterie board. I love this because it is all based on your selection, nothing will go to waste. They also have food you can order. A lot of people love the nuggets with caviar. I think they are decent imo but I'm not like in love with them. Parking can be a bit annoying... If there isn't street parking, you can also park in the garage. The service was good, the staff was friendly. The only thing that was a hassle was getting a table. We had to wait a bit in order for a table to become available. Overall, this spot is a very cozy place to hang and mingle with friends.

    As others have stated, Magie is good in concept and we'll likely return here, but with just a bit…read moremore effort on their part this wine bar could be so much better IMO. Unlike some other reviewers that scoffed at the prices of the wine, that didn't bother me so much. We had a bottle here that cost $55 and it retails for about $28; I was OK with that, as all restaurants and wine bars have a markup above retail, and even when you go to spots like Happy Wine or El Carajo and pick out a bottle to drink while in their shop, they charge a corkage fee for that. What I did have a problem with is that, after the "service charge" and other fees were added on, our $55 bottle rang up to more than $73 in total, which was ludicrous. When we first arrived at Magie we were met by a young guy who pointed out the bottles and where the various charcuterie items are located in the coolers, and we were then pretty much left on our own. We really just wanted a glass of wine each, but unlike places like Vinoteca, here at Magie they had a very limited selection of wines by the glass, and the ones available all seemed to come in single-serve cans. We picked out a bottle to share, went to the register, paid and the guy opened it and handed us 2 glasses. When I returned to get napkins, the guy just motioned to where the napkins were so I could grab my own (after moving a delivery cart out of the way by myself so I could reach them). Again, though this place includes an automatic "service charge", we received zero actual "service" unless one considers the 45 seconds it takes to uncork our bottle and charge us for the purchase. We had a seat, had a glass of wine each and then re-corked our bottle of wine and took it with us. Overall I think Magie is a great concept with lots of potential. The inside seating area is interestingly decorated and outfitted with lots of eclectic furniture and items on the walls, and the relatively large patio seating out front with tables for 2 to 8 people is shielded from the adjacent street/traffic and shaded by lots of trees and greenery. The ambiance overall is really very nice. The service, however, was non-existent, especially considering the automatic charge for that, and while prices of at least some wines aren't terribly out of line, the fact that all the service charges, taxes and fees added $20 to the cost of our bottle was a bit of a shocker. Magie should consider adding more wines by the glass IMO. Not just subpar quality single-serve cans, but decent wines, poured from a proper bottle with a topper that preserves the wine between pours like most every quality wine bar commonly offers. Lastly, while I don't think anyone expects linen napkins and white glove service, the paper plates and plastic cutlery customers are given to eat with are a bit off vs. what this place appears to be trying to be and the prices charged. The "F*ck Brunch" positioning statement on the back of the staffs' shirts was an interesting touch.

They accommodated our party of eight flawlessly, and to top it off, we even had live music on a Wednesday night. This place is such an incredible wine place with tons of amazing bottles and varieties to choose from. You basically shop around the space, pick out your own wine, and bring it back to the table for your server to open and serve. Everything is organized by region and the prices vary so you can easily find something that fits your taste and budget. Every staff member we encountered was fantastic, and everything we ate and drank was just as good. We started with a red Pinot noir bottle we loved so much that we ended up ordering three more for the table. For food, we ordered several dishes to share: The Marinated Olives which i didn't try these because I'm not an olive person. The Bacon Wrapped Plantains which was such a unique combo, and surprisingly delicious. The Local Burrata which was absolutely delicious. I've never met a pan con burrata I didn't like. The Manchego Croquetas were my absolutely favorite. manchego is one of my favorite cheeses, so I already knew I'd love this. Perfectly balanced, not greasy at all, crispy on the outside, melty and creamy on the inside. The honey sauce on the side was the perfect touch. We also got the Steak Frites & Chicken to share which was super tender, flavorful, and the fries were perfectly crispy, just how I love them. They were out of the yuca bravas, so we couldn't try these but they sound phenomenal. And we couldn't chose what desssert we wanted so we went with all three. The flourless chocolate cake with icecream, the key like tres leche and the guava tiramisu. Alll delicious !! And lastly , i have to highlight Thalia, our server. She was exceptional! Truly a five-star experience for our first visit. She handled our group of eight with ease, was always on top of refills without us having to ask, knew the menu inside and out, and gave amazing recommendations. She made the whole night even better. Can't wait to come back especially for lunch since she mentioned they have great lunch specials. This spot is definitely a new favorite,

    Found a new speakeasy bar in Miami, South Beach and don't want to be cagey about it…read more Sagamore Hotel. Step up a few stairs, walk through the main entrance doors and beyond the sofas in the foyer is the entrance which looks more like an entrance to an office. The door gives way to slightly dim warm lighting, which creates an intimate and relaxing atmosphere. I sat at the bar with my husband and heard the bartender, Phillip taking repeated orders of old fashioned and espresso martini. I saw a table polishing glasses and glasses of wines and then came the surprise - their selections! Their selections were smaller than expected but thoughtfully chosen. We asked Phillip for his recommendations, along the lines of red & bold. He gladly pointed us to a wine that was not on the menu. It seems they offer a menu selection and off-menu/rotating selection from unique wine regions. We had a red blend from China (yes that's correct, it surprised me equally). But then I realized, I haven't had wines from most of the regions they offer and the curiosity sets in. Looking forward to explore the menu and off-menu selection. Perfect bar for date night or post dinner drinks and for all the wine explorers out there.

    We didn't try the food but I could only imagine it being very good. The service was great Phillip…read moredid a great job recommending different wines and beverages. It was all amazing. I love the dim atmosphere and very quiet.

    First off I'll start on a positive! The ambiance is amazing, I love the lighting but that doesn't…read moremake up for the extremely offensive dining experience. The only thing worth ordering is the classic smash burger. The burger was a good size and came with a lot of fries, i really enjoyed it. However, it proved to be a rather embarrassing restaurant choice for dinner. (We realized it was a cocktail bar after the fact) I brought my friend who came from out of town and she ordered tacos and well... they were a joke. Just two tacos with slivers of bland meat on FLOUR tortillas- saved by the sauce. Don't get me started on the skewers.. $24 for some meat and veggies on cocktail stirrers. They were half of the size you'd expect. Just to add insult to injury, the water was comically small and they charge $6 for a half-sized sized bottle of sprite. They also charge an automatic 20% gratuity just so you know. Nice place, just don't get food here.

    4 of us walked in for the first time on a Tuesday night. We had no idea it was open mic night and…read morethey had a solid lineup of first time or local musicians. Some people were just walking in the door carrying a guitar or keyboard. Before I heard any music I was skeptical of what the talent may be. I was so wrong!as just about everyone was really good. Some legit could make a career if had the right producer. The lounge area was comfortable with attentive servers. Had a nice selection of specialty cocktails.
