The Capital Grille is one of the finest dining establishments in Connecticut. The ambience is superb, service over the top and the food remarkable.

This is a large well-appointed restaurant. There are private rooms for small gatherings. The tables in the dining area are appropriately spaced apart, the lighting dim and noise decibels well controlled, contributing to the atmosphere of refinement and privacy.
Capital Grille has an extensive menu. The dry aged cuts are perfectly cooked to order with a consistent crust and the signature sides and starters were high quality. I especially enjoyed the mac and cheese.
Our party of six thoroughly enjoyed the meal, the atmosphere, the service and especially the food. One member of our group mentioned that the waiter did not ask about food allergies. This is a best practice standard but if I had a severe food allergy, I would certainly make my own inquiry to ascertain that the meal I was ordering did not contain anything that would trigger my allergy. In addition, our server may have asked about allergies, but I didn’t hear him.
An extensive high-end craft cocktail and deep wine list contribute to the dining experience. I especially enjoyed the Double Oaked & Rye Manhattan.
Expect to pay around $125 per person which I think is very reasonable considering the excellent service, food, and atmosphere.

The Capital Grille is a very good restaurant overall, but given its reputation as one of the top dining destinations in Connecticut, I was expecting a bit more. The food was solid, and the steak was good, but it didn’t quite reach the top-tier level I anticipated for a restaurant of this caliber.
The service was polite and professional, and our waiter was genuinely nice. That said, our table of two felt somewhat overlooked compared to larger tables nearby. While other tables were checked on frequently, we had minimal follow-up, which slightly took away from the experience. Nothing was rude or wrong—it just felt less attentive than expected at this price point.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s still an enjoyable dining experience, and the quality is certainly there. However, when spending around $80–$100 per person depending on drinks, I was hoping for more exceptional attention and a more memorable experience overall. Good, but not quite living up to the “top restaurant” expectations.

Never have i dined out onThanksgiving. But this year I decided to. They had complimentary valet, the hostess inside was extremely sweet and friendly. My waiter john was so knowledgeable describing the menu and attentive. The atmosphere was A+++++ 5 STARS is not enough. I had seabass exceptional, my son had Ribeye and it was perfection, and we also had lobster Mac and cheese. But can I tell you the lobster and crab cake!!! Omggg. Im so mad I had to share. Kids always want a piece . It was worth every dime. Extremely grateful for that experience, coming from a working mom who felt guilty for not cooking, my kids said they loved it. Thank you

I just wanna say for starters when we first got there the atmosphere was pretty OK. We sat at the bar. I was actually on a date. Our bartender seem pretty OK for starters. We ordered our food when we got our food. The server that bought our food out, Carlos just slammed our food on the counter very unprofessionally very rude. The presentation of my food was very unacceptable. I ordered chicken with caramelized onions. The chicken was very tasteless. I’m talking about no seasoning at all whatsoever , The caramelized onions had no seasons, The lobster, macaroni and cheese I had to add so much salt and pepper to eat it, but I definitely felt sick after getting home from eating it……. But voicing my opinion to the bartender, he became very rude. I was very nice about it, even gave him a A compliment about his drinks because that was the best part about the visit to the restaurant. He became very rude obnoxious. I took it as he was tired, but that there was no reason for him to be rude or disrespectful to me in anyway his name was Jamie, He also cursed at me and another group also heard him and was shocked that he even said what he said to me, after that, the manager, Carlos had a conversation with me and kind of smooth things over but I explain to him that unfortunately what was done was done And I appreciate him coming to speak with me !

The restaurant serves a variety of menu with exceptional service by staff. The ambiance is great and allows people to have a conversation over dinner. Reservations should be made in advance if you plan to eat here. It gets full pretty fast. I truly enjoyed my bone in prime rib and for dessert there’s a lot of choices too. Get the beet salad as an appetizer. You’ll be satisfied with it! I highly recommend this place without hesitation.

They accommodated a large party very well and made sure everyone was taken care of. Would not hesitate to go back. Well worth the it.

Johnny and Crissy made our dining experience exquisite. They were extremely helpful and made us feel like we were at home. The food was excellent and the service matched. We are going to be planning our company Christmas party here because of their amazing service. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone if you’re looking for excellent food and even better service.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Anniversary Dinner Done Right

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary at The Capital Grille in Hartford, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was elegant yet comfortable, making it the perfect place for a special occasion.

Our server, Kevin, was phenomenal. He was attentive without being intrusive, incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely warm and engaging. He truly elevated the evening and made us feel celebrated.

The food was outstanding and beautifully prepared, and every detail felt thoughtful and intentional. This was a memorable anniversary dinner, and we look forward to returning. Highly recommend for anyone celebrating something special—or simply wanting a top-tier dining experience.

We went to The Capital Grille for drinks and dessert and chose to sit at the bar, which turned out to be the highlight of our evening. We ordered espresso martinis, and they were absolutely delicious, perfectly crafted and well-balanced.

What truly made this visit unforgettable, though, was the exceptional service and genuine connection we had with the bartenders. Chelsea and Kyle were incredibly personable, warm, and engaging. They didn’t just serve drinks, they created an experience. At their recommendation, I tried the coconut cream pie, something I wouldn’t have ordinarily ordered. I’m so glad I did because it was out of this world, rich, creamy, and perfectly indulgent.

I would highly recommend not only the drinks and dessert but the entire experience at the bar. Chelsea and Kyle, thank you both for the fantastic conversation and the memorable evening. You truly elevated the visit.

We had an unforgettable anniversary dinner, thanks in large part to our amazing waitress Krissy. She was incredibly personable, warm, and attentive from the moment we sat down. Her recommendations were spot on, and truly elevated our dining experience. She checked in on us regularly, and made sure everything was perfect. Her genuine care and thoughtful service helped make our night so special! One we’ll always remember. We’re so grateful for this experience for our first visit. The generous pour wine tasting was so fun! We will be back.
