"Always professional, always on time with the seating. The food was outstanding, shrimp cocktail and lobster and crab cakes to start. The lobster and crab cakes are among the best I've ever tasted. Steak and lobster entree. Everything cooked to perfection. Attentive service, never felt rushed. It was our anniversary, and the restaurant added their own touchs with no special requests from us. This included rose petals on the table and complimentary dessert. Another outstanding culinary dining experience from the Capital Grille. Truly, you cant go wrong with these folks."

"Came in for lunch, and it was very good. Had the bone in NY strip and was cooked perfectly. The house made grapefruit soda is to die for. I cant get enough. Had the green bean side and was good. My date had the crab lobster burger. a "burger" made like a crab cake. It was tasty and full of crab and lobster meat. The truffle fries were yummy as always."

"We went as a large group to celebrate Administrative Professional's Day. Nicole was our server and she was amazing - so warm, efficient, and knowledgeable. The food was wonderful. Everything was cooked perfectly. The only thing that seemed out of place was the hostess, who was elderly, yet wearing a very revealing cocktail dress at noon on a Wednesday."

"We went there for our 20th Wedding anniversary, the waiter Tobias asked us if we were celebrating an occasion and we told him, well all of a sudden we had complimentary champange and rose petals on the table. Then the chef sent out a special appetizer. The meal could not of been better. The steaks were perfect and all the sides were wonderful. At the end of the dinner the manager came over and congratulated us and talked to us for a bit. I would highly reccomend the Capital Grill and expect to be back soon!"

"First-time at any Capital Grille. The food was good but very expensive. 1 round of drinks, a la cart dining, 2 shared desserts for a table of 4 (including tax and 20% tip) was ~$440.00. We can get same food quality & same level of service at other restaurants for 1/2 the price. Won't be going back."

"Ronny was a great waiter and handled a big crowd smoothly. I had the lobster benedict, very nice. My guests had the swordfish and filet mignon. They were very happy with the meals. The prix fixe bruch menu was nicely done with enough variety to please any palate. The support staff was also excellent. Our waiter could not have been as attentive without them.

"The food was good. I was a little disapointed in the service.The Steak I orderd was only warm. I did not feel like sending it back. My daughter ordered the special Sirloin and it was kind of Dry. The side dish's were very good. The Crab/Lobster cakes were the highlight of the dinner. The sevice was very slow. It could be because it was easter. We had planned on ordering desert but the waiter did not come around for 20 minutes after giving us the menu."

"I have not been to Capitol Grill in a few years but not for any reason. I took my wife for dinner and the service was excellent to start. I had a wonderful tabpe which made me notice the whold view of the dining room. Each guest was treated as if their own family was waiting on them, lots of energy, questions being fired and answers being spot on in return. I had a Sirloin my wife had the 22 oz. Rib which she polished off and said it was the best restaurant steak she has ever had. Matt the chef came by to chat and we sampled their Lobster Mac and Cheese which they use Mascapone Cheese and the suttle richiness didnt over bear the lobster. All in all it was a nice expierence and cant wait to stop in again. My thanks to Matt and the Management"

"food was too salty. and too rich. People who eat out a lot can't do it with such "seasonings"
Also, poor selection of glass of wine by the glass.

"First time at capital grille and it was a little of a disappointment. Food tasted good but definitely lacked. Calamari was good but just good, lobster bisque was thick, pudding like, not how it's suppose to be, steak was smothered in butter, suppose to be a shallot butter but definitely over did it. My girlfriend got chicken confit and that was very good. I've been to steakhouses from Vegas, to Boston, and Foxwoods. This did not hold a candle to any of them."

"We had received a gift certificate over the Holidays for The Capital Grill and decided to use it for Valentine's Day/Birthday Lunch at the restaurant. Nicole our server was amazing! She was attentive and personable, and when we dine at this location again I will most certainly ask for her.
The food was prepared very well, and I would recommend the Lobster Bisque. Save room for dessert, home made ice cream over fresh berries and coconut cream pie should not be missed.

"I made the reservation more than 2 weeks in advance of Valentines Day hoping to get a nice table. We ended up at a table right inside the doorway on a cold night so had to keep coat on because every time the door opened a cold wind blew in. My filet mignon ordered medium was WELL done but the waiter never came back after the food servers brought the food to ask how it was so I ate some and wasted the remainder.
I have eaten at Capital Grille many times (providence, vegas, boston, tampa - I always look for one when traveling) and this is the first bad experience I have had. But, given It cost well over $200 I will not risk it again :("

"The level of service at Capital Grille was exceptional- the best service at any restaurant I have been to in Rhode Island. The food was very good, but that was to be expected. It did not "wow" us but it definitely did not disappoint. We had the lobster and crab stuffed shrimp (very good), the corn with bacon which was an interesting and enjoyable blend of flavors but I would not personally order it again, the creamed spinach, and for dessert the chocolate hazelnut cake. The cake was a bit disappointing, it was not very rich in flavor but was presented beautifully."

"We went for lunch, and were very disappointed. The food was definitely not worth the high price, so I definitely will not be going back. The appetizer salads were good, but very small. I ordered the signature burger and fries, but the burger came out on it's own, and I received the fries about 10 minutes later. The entree salad was served with greens, a chicken breast on the side, and a parmesan "crisp" that was soggy and pretty much inedible. The sorbet for dessert was very good, but didn't make up for the rest of the meal."

"Had dinner on Tuesday January 29th. As usual everything was great. The steaks were cooked to perfection and he sides were as well. The only issue with I had and didn't notice until I had left the restaurant, I had ordered a Wedge Salad with my steak. The salad never came but I was charged $11.00 for the salad. This would not stop me from going back to the Capital Grille."

"We love the Capital Grille and go to the Providence location on a regular basis. The service is always excellent! I think on this visit, the food was not up to par due to it being Restaurant week. My salad was wilted and warm and the creme brulee was runny and not cold enough. I will go back but, not during restaurant week."

"Being Restaurant Week, it was very busy. We did get seated promptly as per our reservations and had a nice table, away from the traffic throughout the restaurant. Waiter and service crew were pleasant, but rushed. No special effort was made to see if everything was okay. Extra lobster tails we ordered came late, teaspoon had to be send back, and coffee was not refilled as requested. Food was good, steak was great and lobster as well. But we felt rushed, not how we would have liked it on a Saturday night. Out within 1 hour. We felt it was not a night that they tried to impress us in hopes that we would come back. Other restaurants that we spent an evening at made us feel more welcome during Restaurant Week."
