World's best! No one else comes close.

We have eaten at the Capital Grille several times and each time has been incredible. George and his staff are meticulous, thoughtful, energetic and humorous all of which makes for a great experience. The steaks are the best (go for the larger size as it is only a few bucks more) the lobster bisque is like the heavens. Also they have a Stoley drink which is vodka and pineapple and is a must try. The selection of wines is well thought out (there must be over 400 bottles) and reasonably priced. If I were going to die tomorrow, I would have my last meal here for sure!

• Pros: Wine list, Steaks, Lobster Bisque
• Cons: None apparent

Highly Over Rated

by Food_Kritik at Citysearch

The Calamari as an appetizer was good and the mixed shellfish appetizer was good. The dry aged 24 oz Sirloin Steak had no taste at all. It was a lot of meat but had no flavor! It reminded me of a steak you would get up in the NorthEast. The service was good but for the price and taste of the food I think you can find much better elsewhere. If you want a truly mouthwatering steak try Pappas Steak house on Westheimer. I had a Ribeye there that is out of this world.

• Pros: Ambience, Wine, Scenery
• Cons: Overrated, Bad Steak, No Taste

Exceptional Ambience

by houstonian at Citysearch

For those who haven't visited this elegant steakhouse, its worth a trip just to enjoy the decor. The food is excellent and the waitstaff remember your name. The wine list is incredible and the signature "Stoli-Goly's" will make you feel happy about life.

• Pros: Wine List, Steaks, Salads

Great views and reviews

Great place to see and be seen... The food and service are as good as the people watching. We saw every day people, Houston big wigs, and even a few pro baseball guys. Our server was fantastic and took great care of us and our guests, and the food was melt in your mouth perfect. It is a must try place.

• Pros: service, food, great people watching

The steak at The Capital Grille is so tender, you don't have to chew it. Also, the wine list is incredible!
