Ok, my review of Capitol City Grill. Before coming here, I read the reviews which were mixed with bad and good. My experience is also mixed. We came in, not very busy with only three other tables. The waitress sat us and asked for drinks. My lady ordered a hard cider and the waitress walked away without asking me for my drink. She returned before having the drink or drinks to say the bartender is running the lines. at which time I asked for a beer. Not sure why she didn’t ask me the first time, but I’m use to being ignored being in a wheelchair but I don’t know..
The menu was very limited but I ordered the BBQ ribs which came quickly. The sides of chefs choice was onion rings and potato salad. The potatoe salad was not good because it tasted like carrots. The ribs were delicious and it came out hot. The onion rings were from frozen so I don’t give much kudos to the chef or cook.
The decor is clean and very nice. Our table is a little wobbly and the wsit staff changed the TV channel to a movie and sat at the bar most of the time watching tv and talking to each other.

Service was great! Food was delicious.
Limited menu, but sometimes not having to many choices is better. Decent prices. Dessert was the best a chocolate mousse cake. Yummy

Great service, yummy food. We had breakfast which was included with the room price and was a la carta (not like the regular American breakfast included in the ‘Express’ version of the hotel). All waitress were extremely friendly, they even switched the tv to cartoons for the kiddos. We also had dinner, the kids burger is huge, more like a regular size burger, chicken tenders great, quesadilla, Caesar’s salsa, street tacos, all really good. Highly recommended!

Cocktails are amazing. The food however was bland. My fajitas were burnt and my $4 fountain drink had zero carbonation

I wanted to share my experience at Capitol City Grill at Holiday Inn, a restaurant that seemed promising. I have a non-verbal autistic child, and sometimes it can be challenging to make her understand certain things. A few days ago, we went there to dine in. My child was not in the mood to wear shoes, so she took them off as soon as she sat on the chair with her legs folded.
The waitress informed us that her manager had said they would not serve us until she wore her shoes. We explained that our child did not want to wear her shoes at that moment, but she was sitting with her legs folded and would not put her bare feet on the floor. Despite explaining that she is autistic and currently having a difficult time, they only served us water and said that was all they could do unless she wore her shoes.
They didn’t directly ask us to leave, but their actions made it clear that we should. This experience broke my heart. If my child has special needs and behaves differently, do we as parents not have the right to dine in any restaurant? I have dined at the best restaurants in Portland and have never encountered such a response. The manager did not even bother to come over, nor did the waitress apologize for their behavior. I am truly shocked by how cold-hearted and impolite people have become.

Worst steak I have ever had. It was the ribeye and it was so tough and full of gristle you couldn’t even chew it. My spouse had the fettuccine and it had an awful sour taste to the noodles. We told the manager and she said that it was just how that cut of meat is! Your best is shoe leather tough and non edible? Zero attempt to care or try to make it right. Do t waste your money or time here as McDonald’s is better than this places best. Zero stars would be an upgrade.

Stayed and ate breakfast the next morning. Had a fabulous experience! Waiter was amazing (Hector), always eager to help and the refills on coffee were always there. Food was also great! 100% better than any breakfast house around. Would definitely stop by just to eat.

Possibly one of the worst dining experiences of my life. Went there last night for my mother in laws birthday. Waited over an hour just to have our order taken and then another hour to get our food. We had small children with us who were starving and getting very antsy. Turns out they have one waitress for the entire restaurant and then a bartender. The waitress is also responsible for delivering food to anyone in the hotel that orders. Absolutely ridiculous. Fortunately she was amazing and as attentive as she could be and very kind and apologetic. Doesn’t change the fact that what should have taken an hour took two and a half. Absolutely WILL NOT be going back.

I ordered a drink, a ribeye, a side salad, and cream brulee. My steak was good, the brocolii undercooked (and I don’t mean al dente), the dressing was watery, and my creme brulee was burnt not carmelized. My drink came without the customary sugar-rimmed glass and when I told the bartender, he didn’t fix it even though it would have been easy for him to do so without making another drink. The prices were not in line with the attention my drink and meal were given by the staff. I was dissapointed.

Amazing dinner! I was extremely surprised with the quality and taste of their Mongolian stir Fry with steak! Vegetables were cooked perfectly and the sweet spicy sauce set it off! Definitely would have dinner here again. Beautiful, clean and upscale dining experience. Servers are friendly and professional. Nice dining experience
