Capital Grille is a wonderful place to take out of town guests (not from New York or Europe however!) who admire the old-fashioned substantial atmosphere. It looks senatorial. The food is adquate if uninspired (although one time I had a very disgusting vegetable dish swimming in slightly rancid butter). It is suitable for business meetings. I would not suggest it for more personal or intimate occasions.
Pros: Looks senatorial
Cons: Uninspired food
