Reviews for The Capital Grille in Providence, RI
I've been to Capital Grille several times around the country and I'm usually pleased. This time not so much. It just didn't... wow me. Steak was over cooked and charred on the outside. Crab cakes were awesome. Service was great. The food was justlackluster. Read more
In the center of Downtown Providence , stands a beautiful glass structure and with in , one of the best restaurants in Rhode... Island . The Capital Grille is seconds off the highway , and offers valet parking so don’t stress about looking for parking. The exterior is stunning , and the interior is just as classy to match. The service is 5 star here , from the waiters all theway to the bar. You won’t find a cheap menu here , the food quality is on another level , so prepare for that expense prior . But the quality of food, service you receive, and the overall dining experience is far superior to most restaurants , so thecost is worth it. If you have never been here , this is a bucket list kind of restaurant, you need to come here at least once . Everything you sink your teeth into , just makes you close your eyes and say “ wow” to yourself . They are known for theirsteaks entrees , so I highly recommend trying one of those . You can’t go wrong with any selection though. Dinner to desert ,just phenomenal. You could leave broke , but you have never eaten better lol. Oh and try the cheesecake , your welcome. ???? Read more
Amazing restaurant with a very good quality on food and service. We had the best experience at dinner time in a pleasant... environment. Our table ordered meat and sea food. The seared tenderloin with butter poached lobster tail was delicious , watermouthering and cooked perfectly. We also ordered Lobster Mac N' cheese and it was amazing. The price is really worth so when inProvidence we would definitely go back to Capital Grille. Read more

Simply amazing! while on a work trip a group of us ate here and we all had the best experience. Our waiter has worked there for... 16 years and it showed. He recommended some wonderful dishes that everyone enjoyed. I had the filet mignon with Maine lobsterand I was in heaven after I finished my meal. I would eat here again when in Providence again.

Had a pleasant experience for my birthday. This place is one of my top 5 favorite steak houses in Boston. The only reason I... can't give 5 stars at the moment is the filet mignon was really fatty. However, that one thing did not detract from my love ofthis place. I've been to this location alone 6 other times and always have amazing service. Food wise? Their lamb, steak, fish,and even their sides are all very flavor and well seasoned. All in all you'll get a good experience here. Read more
TLDR; not worth it I typically go to Mastro's back home but heard good things about CG from a couple of friends. It was a close... walk from my hotel, so I ventured down. Kinda wish I made the nearly hour drive to Ocean Club or whatever in Boston. While theservice was good and there was a decent crowd, the food left a lot to be desired. I don't even have a remotely good thing to sayabout the shrimp cocktail. The taste was horrible and the accoutrement didn't fix it. Further, the horseradish - I assume that'swhat it was because it had no kick and looked horseradishy - was anemic. Even slathering cocktail sauce on the shrimp didn'tmake it palatable, ignoring the fact that I hate throwing cocktail sauce on seafood. The bread came and...meh. One piece of itwas good. It seemed like one was some weird kind of raisin bread, which I think I stopped eating at 4. The steak (bone-infilet) was acceptable, but not great, and certainly not worth the cost. Again, coming from someone who dines at Mastro's quite abit, I expect a hot plate and a hot steak. It was warm-ish, the plate was not. That said, I've included a picture of the onegood thing, which is pretty impossible to screw up because it's in a bottle. And much to her credit, the waitress broughtanother as the first dwindled down - the two only redeeming elements of this visit. Read more
