Reviews for The Capital Grille in Fairfax, VA

Great experience! We had reservations for 8pm and literally got sat at 8:05, which was very good. When we arrived to our table... they had it set up with a rose and card for our anniversary! The server recommended food and drinks and his picks were on point,I really enjoyed the side car. The food was great! I did have a problem with my steaks temp two times under cooked. The Chef diddeliver my steak and made sure it was at the right temp, as it was after he personally cooked it. The staff still made sure Iwas happy by refreshing my sides and having the manger as well to come over and check. They made sure my experience was nothingbut perfect! At the end of my dinner they brought a surprise dessert that was also good. I definitely recommend this restaurant,they show so much care about their customers I wasn’t even made about the steak and they still get 5 stars because how thehandle the situation. Read more

The service and the meal were excellent. The menu is relatively simple with a vast wine menu of that's your cup of tea. The... margaritas were great. We ordered the tuna Tartare and calamari for appetizers and I enjoyed both of them thouroughly. The tunagot a little messy but that didn't slow me down. It would probably a little more difficult for more than 2 or 3 people to share.My wife ordered the chicken and risotto which while I ordered the bone in Ribeye. Man I don't like ordering steaks too oftenbecause I feel like I make a really pretty good one one but this one was good. We also ordered the potatoes au gratin (whichwere pretty impressive) and the roasted mushrooms. Everything was good overall. I feel as though it's pricey for what you getbut a great meal regardless.

We took my dad here for his 80th birthday. Oh my goodness, the filter mignon was divine! We also enjoyed the calamari, crab and... lobster cake, spinach salad with goat cheese and fresh berries, lobster tail with steak. Ryan was our server and was awesome.The handwritten note and birthday dessert added a special touch to the evening. We felt well taken care of. Read more

This place is an outstanding value for money for a NICE steakhouse. One of the things I noticed at TCG is that you’re also... paying for excellent service. Our bartender was great, attentive, and poured the drinks just right. The fries are bomb and wesplit a strip steak medium well. It was all very good. Read more

Absolute must on the bucket list. Start to finish, from service to the last morsel of desert was divine. Be warned: the... chocolate espresso cake is more like a thick mousse and very heavy on the espresso and cocoa powder. They specialize in agedsteaks and an extensive wine selection. Be prepared to spend at least 150.00 for 2. My husband and I went no holds barred andthe check was 320.00 and 80 for tip. It was worth every penny. A steak is between 51 and 70, add lobster tail for 30.00appetizer, crab cakes is a must, 24.00 amazing. Service and staff and a great insta spot out front with the lion.

She made sure the drinks were perfect, food washot when it came out and always checked back in with us on a regular to make sure we ok. She brought her A game. Thank so muchTia for taking care of us. I tip my hat to the chief. Food was out of this world. Juicy, tender, flavorful and delicious.

We ordered to go and have to say this will be our new go-to place for the best steak and dishes. The filet mignon was excellent... even at well done. It didn't get burned and was not dry. The chicken breasts were awesome with no bad chicken stench or smell.The risotto tasted great, it was just perfect. The fries are terrific. The complimentary bread and butter were excellent inquality. I only said good things because this place was awesome. If you liked Ruth's Chris before they fell off the cliff, thenCapital Grille does it even better. Read more
