Editorial Review for The Capital Grille – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
Everything here exudes a quiet dignity, from the portraits of prominent Chicagoans on the high walls to the attentive yet unobtrusive service. The classic steakhouse menu starts with flash-fried calamari and Beluga caviar, then moves on to the main event: Dry-aged steaks, charbroiled with butter and fresh garlic, then sliced and served up with a la carte sides of potatoes and vegetables. Desserts include standards like Key lime pie, cheesecake and creme brulee.

well my friends and I each get to pick any restaurant of one's choice for their birthday, and I choose Capital Grille, everything we had was very good including the lobster, it was my first time having it and it was delicious kinda expensive but very good. I had the porterhouse and i love it! Nice place, great atmosphere, very cool time.. try it

I went there with a few other people to celebrate a birthday and the food was AWFUL!!!!! 4 of us got filet's, it tasted like a piece of meet thrown on a grill and then served....not to mention it wasn't even cooked properly. The other 4 at our table that got different steaks lucked out, there's were great! So if you go there don't go with the filet....for being a steak place I don't think they know what they're doing. The manager wasextremely rude as well, I feel bad for his employees! My friends and I have all worked in the restaurant business, from managers to servers, my one friend went and talked to the manager about the 4 crappy steaks we were served. The manager immediately got rude with my friend and said he couldn't comp 4 filet's. My friend told him that he never asked that they were comped, just to make his guests at the table happy, he said we all paid good money...which we did...over $900 so everyone at the table should be happy leaving. So he brought us out like 8 desserts...which were all good, how do you screw up a dessert. But, I'm still not happy....I'll NEVER go back....I'll go to Morton's or Ruth's Chris instead.
Pros: The name makes it sound like it will be good
Cons: It's really awful
