Reviews for The Capital Grille in Philadelphia, PA
Thank you Capital Grille for a lovely and enjoyable dinner with exceptional service and food. Thank you for not judging our... appearance after a long drive. We got to Philadelphia after a long drive with torrential rains. After checking in our hotel weasked for places to eat. So we went to Capital Grille. (we could walk and didn't want to drive again) I called outside therestaurant because reservations are suggested. I said we really are not dressed for this restaurant. WE had on T-shirts andpants very casual. We apologized but the staff treated us with respect and gave us the service everyone else received (most werewere dressed formal) Our server was Rene also known as Octavio. He did an excellent job with serving. He knew the menu andagain did not judge us on looks or that we did not drink alcohol. The food was suburb. A bit pricey but a lovely time. We alsowere greeted by Sophia who checked to see how our meal was and took some dishes. We had a pleasant conversation and later foundout she was the director of operations (I think I have that right) The restaurant had adequate staff but Sophia was therehelping too! I would give this restaurant 5 plus stars based on food, service and atmosphere. We truly enjoyed . Thank youCapital Grille and a special thanks to Sophia and Renee. Read more
This place consistently scores high with me for food quality and presentation. I wish the prices weren't so high for an average... person but sometimes you gotta splurge. The steak is really what you're there for, but this time I added a lobster tail that wasreally just the icing on the cake. We had mentioned that we both had birthdays in the past or upcoming days and they gave us anice free dessert dish too. It was a delight. Read more
Absolutely reliably good steaks! And typically high prices. Service was superb. Steaks were prepared exactly as ordered, medium... rare. Cocktails were a bit lackluster. Cocktail menu is fine, it seemed that they lacked a little zing. Dark, steakhouse decor.If you're on an expense account, why not? Read more
Great Experience. William Packer was a delight. He was very attentive and professional. Came here during for work lunch with... about five other people, we encountered no issues. William was very knowledgeable of the menu and offered greatrecommendations. The food was delicious and perfectly cooked. Every dish I tried was phenomenal. I'd for sure return for greatservice and excellent quality of food. Read more
I visited this place for my birthday. It was a surprise dinner. They messed up our reservation because of some glitch in their... system, so the table which we got was not at all comfortable. But they compensated us with a free dish and that was nice ofthem. This place has the best truffle fries I ever had. Their cocktails are really good. I tried the Classic Crème Brûlée itwas simply amazing. Food was really good, the quantity is wholesome, it really good for one person to finish in onesitting. Over all it was a good experience, it could have been better if we had a cozy and comfortable sitting. Read more
Great atmosphere with food to match..I absolutely love the daily selections. I feel like I'm always getting something new and... something I really enjoy when I come here. If this is your first visit, try the bacon and lobster mac and cheese with extralobster! Read more
Kelly was awesome! It was my friends birthday and we had the most amazing meal here. The service and knowledge was beyond... imaginable. The food was so amazing. I have never tasted a better Lobster bisque! Read more
This is what you would expect for me. Capital Grille. Wood panel walls, paintings, a faux old school ambience. The food was good... but not great. The steak was way too salty, as well as the calamari. A salad with uninspiring. The dessert was pretty but okay.The best dish was probably the mozzarella wrapped in prosciutto and then pan fried. That was unique and very good. We ordered amail back and were brought a decent bottle but surprisingly one that you would find in almost every grocery store. We were herewith a big group for a business dinner so the wine selection was probably limited for us, but still a little surprise this placewould use a mass market wine. Overall, a fancy ambience with good food but not outstanding, and questionable if worth theprice. Read more
