The experience was OUTSTANDING! The reception was friendly and efficient, and I had requested a specific area in the restaurant which they met. The appetizers and main courses were phenomenal, our guest from Chicago remarked that the duck main course was the best he’s ever tasted! We (4of us) each ordered different main courses, and we all left our plates clean!!!

Thanksgiving dinner was excellent. We had the turkey dinner. The food came out hot, seasoned with flavors of Thanksgiving. Our server Heather was very nice and just a joy for the special occasion. I was also celebrating my birthday. Our steak came out a little late; it was cooked to perfection the way we ordered it. Heather gave us a slice of complimentary pumpkin cheesecake (delicious) since the steak came out late. She was very apologetic but it was very busy so we totally understood. Plus it’s Thanksgiving. She was serving us and not with her family with the most pleasant attitude. I highly recommend Capital Grille for any special occasion. The hostess stand staff can be a little more inviting. Overall great experience and dinner.
