Very Enjoyable evening. Thank-you, Carlos. My friend and I had a great time during a wonderful culinary experience. We had the Calamari for starters. Filet Mignon grilled to perfect medium rare and finished with Creme Brulé that was definitely top 5 in the world for me. The maître d very generously held my jacket and bags in a safe closet in the front during our dinner and brought it to me upon my exit.
Everything was amazing. The icing on the cake was our server Antonio F. So informative of the menu and all of the dishes and wines. Very witty too! The portions were worth every penny! Whew!
Went to The Capital Grille in Seattle for my wife’s birthday, and we had an incredible experience from start to finish. The steaks were cooked to perfection, the service was outstanding, and the wine list was impressive with so many great options to choose from. The atmosphere was elegant yet comfortable, and everything was spotless. Overall, it was a fantastic evening—we’ll definitely be coming back!
I brought my girlfriend here for our 1 year anniversary and we had such an amazing time. The food and atmosphere where amazing. Even the bread and butter where delicious. We had a crab cake, steak and some scallops and side dishes. Everything was incredible. What really took it over the top was the service. By far the most Incredible service we have ever received at a restaurant by miles. Incredibly excited to come back and try something new.
My husband and I are celebrating our 20 year anniversary in town and I wasn’t sure where to go. The Capital Grill had the widest selection (and honestly, the items were just overall more appealing). I booked the seating around 2pm and by great odds there was a 630p spot. The online booking option was so easy. There is a warning that the place had somewhat of a dress code which caused me a little anxiety, but when I arrived I was probably one of the most dressed-up! :) I would say you’re food if you were dressed in casual Sunday attire. The team was amazing! Table service was on point; your cup never ran low. The cocktails were the best I’ve had this trip. The food was truly delectable, and I’m not over exaggerating! We will be making one more trip here before we leave Seattle because the food was well worth the menu prices.
Okay so, The food was great, the drinks were good, the service was awesome, the waiters were really nice and polite, atmosphere was very great, nice paintings, tables, everything. Recommend it. I will be full till tomorrow. The only thing is that it’s too much ice in the cups, and I barely get a sip of my sprite because the ice is covering my mouth. But over all everything was very awesome.
