“Amazing evening out. Everyone was so friendly as you entered the restaurant. It started with one of the best pomegranate martinis I ever had. Our server Jessica was excellent and all the servers that came to the table paid attention to detail. The most impressive part of the evening was the impeccable style of chef Justin. We had the 6 courses chef’s adventure tasting menu and I cannot say enough about the cuisine. The harmony of flavors and the mastery of technique with the plating presentation was magnificent. The chef came to the table to explain each plate that was presented. He’s very knowledgeable regarding the dishes he prepares and you could see his personality come through in the way the dishes were plated and the flavors that came through with each plate. With the cuisine Justin is preparing this restaurant could be a Michelin star restaurant in notime. By the way I am gluten free so the chef had to make changes to my dishes only. I cannot say enough on how much we enjoyed the entire evening. We will definitely be visiting Matthew’s again.“

“We really enjoyed our meal last night! We started with tuna poke served with wonton chips. It was so fresh and the chips were crisp. My husband got the grouper special and ate it all. I got the scallops. They were seared perfectly, the grits were creamy, and I'd love the collards recipe lol. Thanks for a great meal“

“We had an absolutely wonderful evening at The Capital Grille and couldn't wait to share our experience! From the moment we walked in, the elegant yet warm atmosphere set the perfect tone—sophisticated, comfortable, and ideal for a special night out. The food was outstanding. We ordered the filet and scallops, and both were cooked perfectly—tender, flavorful, and exactly as requested. Every bite was a delight and truly exceeded our expectations. But what truly made our night unforgettable was our incredible bartender, Aline. She was an absolute gem! Aline greeted us with a bright smile and warm energy that immediately made us feel at home at the bar. Beyond the drinks, she was so engaging, attentive, and genuinely fun to talk with. She remembered small details about our orders and made us feel like valued guests rather than just customers. Aline and the servers work very hard towards excellence and truly deserve excellent treatment and recognition for their outstanding efforts. Their professionalism and personality elevated the entire experience. We left smiling, full, and already planning our next visit. The Capital Grille delivered on every level, and Aline was the standout star of the evening. If you're looking for a memorable steakhouse experience with fantastic service, look no further. So, don't be cheap, spend the money, and be treated like royalty at The Capital Grille. Highly recommend—ask for Aline at the bar! Thank you, team—and especially Aline—for a fantastic night!“
