Hubby and I went here for mother's day and we had an excellent experience. The waiter, the ambiance, the food, the service were all top notch. I ordered salmon with mashed potatoes and sautéed spinach. For dessert, we had some type of chocolate espresso cake and cheesecake. Omg all of it was so delicious. We will definitely be returning very soon.

We had a lovely dinner to celebrate my birthday. The only downside was that there was no changing table in either the men's or women's room. They have high chairs and a children's menu, but no where besides the floor to change a baby.

It was a wonderful experience. However my wife and I opted for a porterhouse to split which was $96.00. It was small but enough for us two. It was cooked medium rare - my wife asked for medium, it was cut but not all the way so we had to pry pieces off which in several cases had gristle. It was my wife’s birthday so I didn’t say anything but it was just a substandard piece of meat. I did like the nice birthday surprise at the end and our waiter Jason was fantastic.

Great place our farewell dinner guest picked and everyone seemed to enjoy. Stealth service, upscale atmosphere, super valet, and great dishes.Parking: Valet is likely best, but a little walk means free parking options.

Our family dined here for my daughter's 23rd birthday. Nacoa was our server, and she was absolutely outstanding. Not only were the food and drinks delicious, but my daughter received a complimentary dessert as well. She took pictures of us and then provided a keepsake to capture the memories of that night. I hope the management know how much of a gem they have in Nacoa. I will absolutely return & and I'll request her section.

Bar tender was not effective at all. Asked for a dirty martini and it was terrible. Had to request olive brine one the side. Didn't offer to remake the drink. Super disappointing for such a nice restaurant.

We selected the Capital Grille Tysons Corner to celebrate my mother's birthday. From our arrival to departure, we felt the service, culinary skills and hospitality were impeccable! Marlon's warm greetings (and decorated table) coupled with Jose's exemplary service, made an indelible impression! We could not have asked for more to help make our experience memorable. The Capital Grille Tysons Corner not only exceeded our expectations but knows how to go above and beyond for their guests. We will be back!

The Capital Grille is a highly-rated restaurant that boasts a variety of dry-aged steaks, fresh seafood, and other delicious dishes, along with an extensive list of wines to complement your fine dining experience. My significant other and I celebrated our anniversary at this great restaurant some time ago, and the excellent food and service blew us away. The ambiance was also top-notch, making for an unforgettable dining experience.

This is hands down the greatest experience I've had at a restaurant. It was a special occasion for my girlfriend and they got it completely right. The food here is amazing and the staff was welcoming a courteous.

I held an event here, and the staff were so accommodating and helpful! Annie was a wonderful event coordinator and helped me every step of the way, she was more than accommodating when it came to changes and accommodations for guests. To top it all off I had the best helper in the world, Krystal! She made sure my guest were happy and helped me gather photos for my company as I had planned this from the west Coast. I will 1000% recommend this restaurant for events; their staff are kind, have excellent attention to detail and provide astounding food and service. Thank you Krystal and Annie you were a pleasure to work with ☺️

This is such an amazing place to celebrate special evenings over dinner!We visit often and always ask for Walter or Mark when we go. On this particular visit, which was to celebrate a new job, we sat with Mark and he did an amazing job taking care of us!The food was outstanding, as always! The venue is upscale and excellent! And they have such an appetizing and amazing menu loaded with all the favs we enjoy!We'll continue to return, but not only for special events, just for the average date night too! Kudos to Mark for the great service also!!

The Capital Grille (Tyson's) has now become our favorite restaurant. We dined here for a special occasion and everything was phenomenal. The server (Rob Fagan) was incredibly attentive and efficient, as well as very professional, yet personal. He ensured everything was just right the entire evening. The food was excellent. All four of us ordered a different meal and there were ZERO complaints! The food was prepared perfectly and came out hot as expected. The manager also stopped by our table to ensure everything was going well. While we have dinned at another Capital Grille location (in DC) as well as some other upscale restaurants, this Capital Grille now ranks as our number one! I strongly recommend it either for special occasions, or when you just want a night out with an amazing meal. Ask for Rob Fagan.

The food was good the service felt a little rushed but that was due to them closing the kitchen at 9 when our reservation was 8:30. The only major downside was when we went to valet park our car and they told me to go to the side to wait but, no one showed up after 12 minutes.
