Magical Dining + The Generous Pour at The Capital Grille

We were invited to The Capital Grille to experience their Magical Dining menu + The Generous Pour offerings and we enjoyed our visit.

The Capital Grille is a fine-dining restaurant that offers dry aged steaks, fresh seafood, an award-winning wine list and professional service in an atmosphere of relaxed elegance. They are best known for their expertly prepared steaks, which are custom-aged in-house and butchered on premise daily.

Here are our favorites from the Magical Dining menu at The Capital Grille:

New England Clam Chowder – Cup (GF). It was rich, flavorful and chunky. Simply amazing!

Wedge Salad – with bleu cheese and smoked bacon. It was light, crispy, and refreshing. I really enjoyed this appetizer.

Bone-In Dry Aged NY Strip 14oz with Bone-In Kona Crusted Dry Aged NY Strip with shallot butter (+10). You know it is good when your dining companion, who usually does not eat leftovers, asks for a to-go box.

Double Cut Lamb Rib Chops (+15). Delicious!

Cheesecake – their cheesecake is done lightly brûlée over the top like crème brûlée and the inside features ricotta cheese and mascarpone so it is nice and light, with a vanilla wafer crust, strawberry sauce and fresh fruit.
