I recently dined at Capital Grille and wanted to share my experience regarding the food. I ordered the Lobster Mac & Cheese, Creamed Spinach, and Lamb Chops (without breadcrumbs). Unfortunately, the Lobster Mac & Cheese was disappointing. The pasta was overly sticky, and the texture felt old—almost watery. I mentioned this to the bartender, who graciously removed it from my bill after acknowledging that it didn't look right. As for the Lamb Chops, they were prepared as I requested (medium), but they were quite tough and had a texture that seemed aged. Although I was okay with the doneness, the meat itself felt like it had been sitting out for some time. Despite these issues, I opted to pay for my meal as I truly appreciate the great customer service Capital Grille usually provides. I didn’t want to create a scene, but I left feeling regretful about the meal. I hope my feedback helps improve the dining experience for future guests.

Everything was delicious except the Wedge Salad. There was very little lettuce, only one cherry tomato, and it was covered with a mound of fried onions and bacon. I’ve had this salad numerous times and it was delicious. I’m not sure what was going on in the kitchen last night. Everything else was fabulous.

My friends and I were celebrating our 60th Deltaversary in our sorority. Our server Tim group 9 was so warm and welcoming. We were able to get the Wednesday special - short ribs of beef which melted in your mouth. The dish was perfectly seasoned. The collard greens were tasty as was the mashed sweet potatoes. The restaurant was packed but the service was quick and on point. Thanks for a wo needful celebration
