Profile

Like so many of its competitors in town, the Capital Grille is a steakhouse that’s serious about size. Goblet-shaped glasses are nearly filled with wine, the portions are gargantuan, and the sturdy leather seats resemble a king’s throne. Mahogany, brass, and dark reds and greens accent the room, giving it a romantic if masculine vibe. But there’s no better atmosphere for tucking into the dry-aged tender sirloin, fiery steak au poivre, or porcini-rubbed Delmonico. Standard steakhouse sides (creamed spinach, potatoes au gratin) are served à la carte, and the 400-bottle wine list is well priced, with a few special glasses available daily.
