The Capital Grille

Stopped in to get a bite on our way to catch a show!!! The food and atmosphere was very neat. The menu has a variety of dishes and entrees. I went with the steak they cooked it perfectly nice and juicy and very tender!!! My wife’s dish didn’t disappoint either the chicken was delicious!!! Definitely stopping in next time we are in the Twin Cities

World-class food and top-notch service would be the 2 phrases we've come to use when describing Capital Grille. Any special occasion or event celebrated as a couple my wife and I have a hard time thinking of anywhere else we'd rather go - and that's even rubbed off on our friends! From starting off the meal with their legendary Stoli Doli and the delicious spread of bread to the wedge salad with large pieces of bacon, and then for the main event - the steaks, which are cooked to perfection! Plus if you're a fan of your filet with Lump Crab and Bearnaise on top the Oscar Style is for you But you cant stop there: soy-glazed Brussel sprouts and lobster mac and cheese with GIANT pieces of lobster is a side that cannot be resisted. To top things off, on the birthdays and anniversaries we've enjoyed they've always brought out a nice desert sampler tray to make the trips even more special. From start to end combining the amazing wait staff, the intimate ambiance, and every course delivered, I'm already looking forward to the next trip for our anniversary right around the corner.

It was a feast for the Vikings. Generous portions, rich in taste and impeccable service, make this place one-of-a-kind! They make you feel special on special occasions.

Arguably one of the best steakhouses in Minneapolis and the only restaurant outside of Thomas Keller’s French Laundry that I give 5-Stars across the board. Alan Witcher, the GM understands the service industry more than most. I have no affiliation with this restaurant, but when I asked about dry aging, Alan went out of his way to explain the process. He took time out of his busy dinner service, just to talk to me about it. The Capital Grill is a PE backed chain, but they really have it figured out! First, if you want the best possible experience, insist on Ryan as your server! Trust me, he is exceptional and you won’t be disappointed. We have been dining there for two decades and when it’s my birthday, we are going there! They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so take a look. Went back on March 28th. The staff here (get Ryan and tell him I sent you!) is the best anywhere. Once again there were surprises around every corner! At the end of our meal, Ryan brought us a cocktail that his grandfather used to have every night. It was a very warm and personal story.

We were here celebrating our anniversary, and it was such a great experience. Little details and cute ending. Were ordered so much food and had leftovers. We met the executive chef and got a recommendation from him, it was so nice. Recommend for special occasions for sure!

Service was amazing! There was a few hiccups, like giving us an transition table when there was other tables open. I think it was due to our attire. My date came from work and last second decided to take me out. What can you do? Oysters were west cost and they let us tryout one before the half dozen. yummy. The calamari pan fried was quite spicy... a little too much kick in the back of the throat if you know what I mean and I loved loved loved the crackers they had with the bread. Order the lamb.. I didn't like it. It tasted too gamey and really chared for my liking. They were really sweet with offering to get something else. I just let my date have it. He had bone in ribeye with balsamic marinade. I loved it.. took a bit of his with the pome frites. And to end of the night.. the coconut cream pie was divine, took all the pain away. Can't go wrong with this as a non coco lover. The two drinks, a palmelo and a black berry sidecar. The pamelo was it..the sidecar literally hits you like a car on the side. If you want classic steak and slight turf this is your place. Nice dim lighting, soft music playing in the back. Really cozy. They shouls add some live jazz or something ....that would be top tier. Gave us a parting gift of chocolates. Really thoughtful A little over 300 for the meal. For the portions it works.

I took my wife here for our anniversary and we absolutely loved this place. It had a very romantic vibe. The service was excellent, and everyone was so professional. We really loved the food. It's definitely worth the price .

Visited about a week ago. From beginning to end, my experience here was exceptional. The reservation process was easy, and the wait was short despite the busy dinner service. My date and I were given a very detailed description of the menu and specials for the evening. My drink was so well made I could not compliment it enough. Every course served complimented the next. I would provide more specific details, but there's only so much space in this text box time and to type it. My return trip to Minneapolis will include another dinner here.
