Excellent all the way around. Staff, food, ambiance… worth every penny. Ordered the salmon, hubby had filet Oscar. So yummy! And the bread service is always top notch! Always an A+ choice no matter the location!
My wife is the trip planner of the family. She does everything and it results in amazing trips for myself, 11 and 7 year old daughters. After a long day of walking around DC and visiting museums, she asked me to please pick a place for dinner. I do a quick search on Apple Maps and find the Capital Grille, which I admit I had never heard of, and saw that it was only a short walk from the Mall. I did a quick Trip Advisor check, where someone had checked off Great for Kids , made an online reservation for 6:00 pm, and we walked right in on time. We had been sight-seeing all day, so I had on my ball cap, the kids had on Washington DC shirts (one with a slight ketchup stain), and my wife looked beautiful as always. I immediately notice white table cloths, patrons in formal dress and realize that I had taken us to a fine-dining establishment. We were completely underdressed and out of place. I check the dress code which is placed in the entrance and realize that our dress did technically suffice but I was still seriously considering bolting. We offered an apology to the hostess explaining that we booked on the fly and didn 't realize it was fine-dining and how underdressed we 'd be. The hostess was extremely warm to us and seated us immediately. When our waiter arrived, I made another quick apology and he also was extremely polite and made a very welcoming and friendly comment. So, to whoever clicked Great for Kids , you got me! Overall, it was a humorous experience for my wife and I and it was a great introduction to fine-dining for our girls. We just had to explain that next time, we need to dress up a little bit more! I would like to say how thankful my wife and I were at how understanding the staff at Capital Grille were. I am sure we weren 't the first travel-worn family to fall in after a day on the Mall but we appreciated their attitude nonetheless. As for the food, it was absolutely amazing. My wife 's filet and my NY strip were both cooked to absolute perfection. We ordered the Lobster Mac and Cheese, Soy Glazed Brussel Sprouts with Bacon and Mashed Potatoes for the table. Our kids loved the sides, even the Soy Glazed Brussel Sprouts! The service was just as you would expect for a restaurant of this caliber. The waiter was extremely attentive without being intrusive, which can be a difficult balance to strike. It does appear they have a lunch menu so I am assuming that the Capital Grille may be a tad bit less formal for lunch, but this is clearly a fine-dining restaurant for dinner.
Fabulous meal and service our first night in DC. Hard to top the remaining four days we were in town.
We have an excellent lunch. My daughter and I had the mini tenderloin sandwiches with fries. The tenderloin was cooked to perfection. My wife had roasted chicken and hers was prepared perfectly too. I also added the lobster bisque. It had small pieces of lobster and was the best bisque that I have ever had. The service was excellent. The atmosphere is very relaxing and I would not hesitate to come back here the next time we are in DC.
