We had reservations on a busy Thursday night, but even with a booking, we still had to wait a bit before being seated. At first, I was worried the night was off to a rough start, but thankfully, the delicious food quickly made up for the wait. Everything we ordered was fantastic—cooked perfectly, full of flavor, and definitely worth the patience. The service was great too—attentive without being overbearing, and the food came out piping hot, which is always a win. Honestly, the food was so good that I almost forgot about the wait entirely (almost). While the wait wasn’t ideal, the quality of the meal and the solid service made it a memorable experience. I’d definitely return, though maybe I’ll aim for a less hectic night next time!

Being quite honest I’m a very picky person when it comes restaurants service and experience. I just want to say last night I celebrated my birthday with Burlington Capital Grille, I want to say their service and experience has been a true honest above and beyond, and I been in Boston 13 years multiple fine dining local or statewide, this is the first time I would say it’s really impressive me and above and beyond. From the Valet person knowing my name, table choice, special reserve wine choice, and to the food quality, staffs and team’s attitude & attention, and surprising dessert and more! I want to shout out to GM Adam, manager Matt with full attention , Jessica with absolutely fantastic service and whole staff crew kitchen team and valet service also recipient. Thank you guys all. Shoutout to Burlington Capital Grille!

What a great time. We went here to celebrate my parents 50th wedding anniversary. There was a scheduling snafu right before we arrived but the staff and the manager did their magic and smoothed things out perfectly! Great staff and good food! We could not have asked for a better evening :)

Coming to this restaurant is an experience. From the start, we felt very special. Our waiter, Phien, was INCREDIBLE! We did not rush us, the total opposite—he made sure we were having a good time, took time to explain what each dish was all about, and even surprised us with a printout of photo of all of us we took that night. The restaurant decor is stunning and the food is to die for. I definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for an unforgettable experience.

Enjoyed a nice dinner with their prefix menu option for restaurant week in August. As always delicious and the service fabulous. Well worth the visit if you haven't ever gone. Photos are of apps and drinks before the prefix meal. Also, went for a date night in October. Still amazing!!! Added more photos from that night too.

My husband and I came here for dinner to celebrate my birthday and we had an amazing dinner! 🎉 We has the lobster bisque soup, field greens salad, and calamari to start. The complimentary bread basket was also wonderful! Then, we ordered a platter of side dishes for our main course. We especially loved the potatoes au gratin and the mushrooms! They gave me a delicious complimentary dessert for my birthday 🥳 with chocolate cake and cheesecake. We will definitely be back again! 😋

Great food and service but it was very loud. It was difficult to hear others sitting at the same table. Not sure if it was loud because it was a Saturday night, 2 weeks before Christmas! The place was very busy and the staff was very efficient. Has a very nice Gluten free menu. Dietary restrictions: Extensive gluten free menu

Parking: The parking lot is spacious and free. A great tip is to tour the LLBean store while waiting for friends to arrive at the restaurant, as the parking lot connects directly to the stores back entrance. Food

Saying is not a good place is a Lie, but is way over priced for what they offer, other than the service nothing else was worthy, again, it is good food, but for good food we have cheaper options! I will go back once more and try something different, maybe it was my choice

Amazing food, I love the steak and the sides. Pretty expensive so I wouldn t go unless you are prepared to pay atleast 120 per person. A fancy place but great portions. I often don t finish what I get and have to bring it home. Only had a problem one time when the lobster was overcooked in the Mac and cheese and the sea food platter was a little rubbery. But I m sure it was an accident and the other times I ve had it they were fine.

We celebrated my wife s promotion at The Capital Grille in Burlington, and it was a fantastic experience. The food was great. The service was top-notch, attentive without being intrusive. The only downside was the noise level in the dining room, which made conversation a bit challenging. Overall, it was a memorable evening, and I highly recommend this restaurant for special occasions!

Love coming to this location, the food is consistently delicious & service is great. Our waitress Sharon was super attentive and took great care of us. We were seated in a smaller room with another 3 tables, one table was a long table ( two combined) and had a large group. The group was a bit too loud in the small room. I wish there was some music in the background to quiet the mood a little. Food: we had the lamp chop and it was cooked perfectly. We normally shy away from lamb as it can be cooked incorrectly but this was delicious. We had the T bone steak with Asparagus and mushrooms- delicious l, definitely recommend it. It was a huge portion in my opinion, we shared it ( 2 adults & teen). Drinks: espresso Martini dark, if you like dark, this is one place that gets it right! Dirty Martini - delicious and just perfectly mixed. Dessert: flourless chocolate cake - all I can say is you need to try this, otherwise you are missing a lot. Overall, this place does not disappoint, always consistent and classy. Highly recommend for any occasion or no occasion. Will be back soon. Parking: Valet is great & super convenient.

I have been going to the Capital Grilles across the country for two decades and they appear to have lost their understanding of service. We walked in last night to have a drink at the bar and get some appetizers. It could not have been a more challenging task. The hostess was dismayed that we didnt have a reservation, and said it would take 30 minutes to get a table. We clearly were not asking for a table, and it took a long line of questioning to understand that there is a separate system for getting a seat at the bar, which she would not help us with. So we ventured to the bar, where I had to ask another hostess for assistance since the bartender was avoiding all interaction with guests. I never came to understand their system for getting a seat, and It just kept going downhill from there. We did finally get a drink (after a long round of excuse me, sorry, pardon me, sorry, sorry, can you help me?) but never got to the bar and left after an hour. In the end, no waitstaff or server offered assistance. I dont know why this business model seems to make sense for Capital Grille. They need to go back to hiring experienced staff who actually take pride in their job and understand the importance of serving their guests.

we just celebrated our 31st anniversary at the capital Grille in a booth that I had requested, and there were little heart sequins all over the table and note celebrating our anniversary. Byron was our waiter who was totally awesome. Went above and beyond. Then took our picture on my phone and then took a picture on his own phone, then shortly there after brought back to us picture of us in a capital Grille frame for a souvenir and complementary anniversary desserts. A real fantastic time.

I wish there was something more than 5 stars that I could give The Capital Grille in Burlington. From the moment you step into the door you are welcomed by the staff and they take over from there making your dining experience all that you could hope for. From the appetizer to the sweets - everything is made perfectly and delivered with a smile. Adam Mackler and his team in Burlington are #asgoodasitgets.

CG has a well-earned reputation for outstanding food and service. It starts from the moment you drive up and a friendly valet opens your passengers door. The restaurant was full on a Saturday night but our reserved table was set and ready for us. We took advantage of the Generous Pour wine experience and enjoyed appetizers (Lobster and Crab Cakes), soup (Lobster Bisque), then beautiful filets. Sides of au gratin potatoes and creamed corn with bacon. Dessert was Creme Brulee. A wonderful 2.5-hour dining experience.

Food is always on point. Service always delivers. For the cost of everything these days, Id rather take my money here where I know the quality and care will be worth it. Instead of shelling out at other less quality restaurants where the order comes out wrong, rushed or served by someone who clearly doesnt want to be there. The entire crew at Capital Burlington keeps the experience worth it from the start to the finish. Have been coming here since before the pandemic and they not only survived and stayed open but have since continued to step up and beyond.

The manager, John is extremely rude hostile defensive . Call me regarding an order that was messed up. Called me to tell me that I m the wrong one and does not wish to give me a refund, but yet he does not even have the authority to confirm a refund or not. The manager Matthew I lo told me on Sunday that he would be giving me a refund, but his superior manager had to be the one who authorize it. I will talk to multiple people who just kept showing me around, for an issue that the kitchen made. Also was told three times a manger name Adam would be calling me, and yet he hasn t! Don t waste your time going here, you re better off driving the extra 20 minutes to Boston.

My daughter-in-law ordered it really that much a major order for a small dinner party. The steaks were not cooked properly which she tried to fix. But the main issue was the lobster in the mac & cheese. She informed them that she wants no lobster in the mac & cheese just a regular order of of Mac and cheese., they put lobster in the order. Me and my son have a severe seafood allergy. We cannot have lobster obviously in our food. When she tried to call to resolve the issue, she was first meant with kindness and understanding. Only for her to continuously be ignored, only for the rest of the managers to give her an extremely hard time. Especially the manager named John, who argued with her and said that she will not be getting a refund for her order when he does not even have authority to authorize a refund to begin with. The lack of unprofessionalism and these managers is enough to make it that you never want to die in there again. Especially since the manager that my daughter in law just spoke to try to gaslight her into believing that she did not make the order correctly. When she has three different witnesses who heard her make the order on the phone to confirm that she ordered it the way that she wanted it. It s just astonishing. The manager met you is extremely empathetic and understanding. The front desk representatives are also very understanding. The managers, though are extremely unprofessional, especially this Adam that refuses to actually call her back to resolve the issue.

Top class food. What can I say, I had the opportunity to dine here on 2 consecutive days. There was no spilling, but rather a lot of pounding. The service is second to none. Always friendly, quick, inquiring. Here the serving is punctual. In order and everyone at the table at the same time. Its bustling everywhere here, every waiter, cocktail mixer, clearer and kitchen staff is out and about. A little too much hustle and bustle for some guests. Thats why its recommended for those who sit in the side room, because its louder in the main room in front of the open kitchen. Ambience: absolutely great. Dark, beautifully decorated, matching furniture and the wine rack is the absolute eye-catcher. Food: A Poem. Steaks grilled to perfection, the side dishes, desserts, salads and starters are also delicious. The choice of steals is great, whether with a balsamic crust, mustard topping or a special oil, there is truly magic here. Drinks: a large wine list, around 15 cocktails and lots of beers round off the menu. A great bar in the entrance area invites you to wait for a free table. Absolutely recommended

Pretentious and overrated are the words that come to mind when I think of this restaurant. The quality of the food doesn t even begin to the justify the insane prices.

Very disappointed. I had the filet mignon and with a sharp serrated knife I could barely cut it. Not a $60 steak! Returned it (they refunded the money) and got something else. That was good, not great. We were 4 people at a small table and we could not hear each other talk. Lots of large animal tophies around the room including a large eagle with talens out and beak open between the sitting area and the kitchen. Not the kind of decor youd expect in a high end restaurant. Kind of creepy! Go somewhere less expensive and enjoy your meal. Parking: Parking can get very crowded and valet parking recommended as many of the spots are marked off with cones.

An unforgettable experience! We walked into the restaurant, and we were welcome by a smiling-kind host who led us to our table. He waited for us to sit in order to give out the menus (this alone means a lot to me). Right after, we were greeted by a wonderful server who took great care of us! We ordered some cocktails to start our dinner and then some apps. While we were enjoying these, the managers came by to check in to see how everything was (this shows how much they care for guest experiences) right after we ordered few steaks and let me tell you, they were out of this world! Perfectly cooked medium rare and wow they were so tasty. We had a bottle of my favorite Carbernet Sauvignon Jordan, and that paired wonderfully. To end dinner, we had 2 of their desserts and were blown away by their coconut pie! I highly recommend this! Overall, this was an unforgettable experience, and I cant wait to come back and enjoy it once again! This level of attention is only achieved by strong management front and back of the house, and in this restaurant that is palpable.

Took my son here for his birthday as all he wanted was a really good steak! For his first steakhouse, it couldnt have been better. The service was terrific, and of course the food was amazing. The only negative, is that when you show up with a couple children they tried to give us one of the least desirable tables in the restaurant. All restaurants tend to do this. Our kids are teens so theyre not noisy. Not sure why restaurants think this is okay. We asked to be moved and they did without hesitation. Overall the experience was very positive.

Overall great food and service. Our waiter was super chill. The food was delicious. No issues with any of that. This is a busy location. And we were given a heads up. But that is not a burden that I as a customer should have to absorb. Like... If you know you are excessively busy, do a better job of managing your reservations. Or do a better job of staffing your kitchen/floor. If I am coming to a place like Capital Grille, I am coming for something special and want to be able to enjoy my experience. Not be annoyed that everything is taking so long. I say all this, but I would still go again. But Id eat a snack beforehand...lol!

Minutes before being seated, we informed the hostess that we were celebrating a birthday, and by the time we got there, they had already decorated the table and left a card. The manager stopped by to wish us a happy birthday and brought us a complimentary, delicious dessert. Everything about the meal and the evening was exceptional. The Capital Grille, youve been great!

The staff was very kind , attentive and accommodating. The manager was very gracious in accommodating my request to move tables. I have a hearing disability and we were originally seated near the kitchen. He moved us to a smaller side room, which was perfect. Our server was attentive and kind. The food was delicious. We went to celebrate my son s graduation and they made a point to decorate the table and bring him out a special congratulations dessert platter. Very impressed with the attention to detail. Will be back!

the fillet mignon, over cooked, vegetables too hard, place very cold I guess to hide the odor from the carpet, the service not friendly, over priced, not worth 90.00 dollars in tip added to the bill without my approval, my family and i have eaten there before and left unhappy, Im done with capital grill , my opinion,N.F.

I came here for the first time with my partner for our anniversary. I did include the anniversary note in my reservation, not knowing if it would mean anything to the staff. I was blown away! We were told happy anniversary by so many staff, our tablecloth was decorated for us, and we received a free dessert at the end. They were very vigilant about a food allergy we needed to avoid as well. One dish was slightly undercooked to specifications but was still delicious! The staff is attentive, especially when the rest of the diners were very noisy, but thats not the restaurants fault. We hope to come back every year for our special night!

Made reservations for 5:30. My wife and I walked in and were greeted by 3 very well-dressed employees who wished us a happy anniversary. We were seated right away. Our waitress, Melissa, is absolutely one of the best! She wished us a happy anniversary and presented us with menus and told us of the specials. Everything here sounded delicious, so it was very hard to choose. The apps were outstanding. The filet, sirloin and lobster tails were cooked to perfection. After dinner, she brought out a plate with happy anniversary written with chocolate on it and took our picture. What a treat This place made our night one to remember. 10/10 on everything! Also, thank you Roberto! We wish you luck in Dedham!

This was such an amazing & special 12th anniversary dinner. From the moment we arrived and were greeted by such wonderful people. We were immediately seated and I noticed a card sitting on our table wishing us a happy anniversary with pretty confetti on the table. They do such a great job at making a special day even more special. Melissa who was our server, she was so friendly, so on top of our table, she never let our drinks go low, she made sure we were happy and enjoying our time. She even took and printed a photo of us to remember our night/anniversary. The dinner was absolutely amazing and perfect. The steaks were cooked to perfection. The Lobster Tale was delicious. We also had tuna Tartar and that was perfection. They brought out some desert and that was just a perfect ending to such a fabulous meal. I would HIGHLY recommend them for dinner. This is our new favorite place! Thank you to all of the staff that made this night perfect for my husband and I!

Comes with a salad and the yummiest , thickest chocolate cake/tort. Plenty of free parking at the Burlington location. Large bar, where one can eat at and break out private dining rooms for events.

Just celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary at the Capital Grille in Burlington, MA. As usual, we dressed up in our wedding outfits. If nothing else, it gives us our weight goals for this time of year and Im happy to say the outfits still fit. The food at the restaurant is incredible. As usual, I got the porcini-rubbed rib-eye. I dont normally eat huge steaks, but I save it all for this one meal; its worth the wait. As happens every year, I ask myself if I could possibly eat this huge steak and at the end, I find myself struggling to not to pick up the bone and gnaw off any remaining meat (not very proper while wearing a tux). As this was obviously something big like our anniversary, they led off with champagne, something we didnt even have to order. For the first time, I enjoyed champagne. I believe it was the Wycliff Brut, definitely available in liquor stores in New Hampshire and Im going to go look for it in our area. We normally drink Chiantis but they didnt have one so we asked the waiter (are we using waiter for both men and women these days?) for recommendations. The wine I got was perfect. Its not listed on their website so Im going to have to go back to find out the label on this one. They brought out a plate with several desserts, on the house: their special cheesecake and what I think is their flourless chocolate expresso cake. The Happy Anniversary written on the plate is actually chocolate. This restaurants food is incredible. Even the mashed potatoes is stupendous. We must go back at some other time so I can try other things on the menu. The Creme Brulee is calling my name. Yes, weve already made reservations for next year. PS: I saw an earlier (rude) review about having to wait. One year we had a short wait. It wasnt a problem with the staff: the customers at the table we reserved decided to stay for desert and didnt leave on time. I dont expect the restaurant to kick them out and it was worth the wait to get that one table. It just gives the restaurant an extra reason to be nice to us and they did.

We dined on Sun 10/8 at 6.30, Our Server name was Sharon, She was so unattentive, to our table. Our app. was served cold, she left us and only checked on us once, I asked for a wine stand as our table was small, she made a comment that buckets were for white wine as it was for ice only?????. We finished our meal at 7.30 - Waitress last checked us at 7.20- I asked a busboy for our waitress at 7.50pm, and he did try to find her. A waiter cleaned the table at 7.40, the waitress passed by our table several times, we tried to get her attention, she just ignored us, and by 8.10. I had to stop her and ask for coffee and some after dinner drinks, All other table got the complementary champagne, if celebrating an occasions. She served 2 table beside us, who sat after us - they finished and got their check and we still did not receive our coffees We come to CG for all our special occasions, we were celebrating our 17th wedding Anniversary and sadly, I do not think we will be returning, after celebrating all the other anniversary with your restaurant chain. She told a picture, of us to celebrate, after we paid the check, I had to remind her for the picture, she did not apologies for her services, as it was clear -I was upset, she just handed me the pictures. Our sitter was calling as the meal took so long Parking: Very hard to leave a comment

3.5 stars rounded up. Great service and sides, but the steak was disappointing. We took my sister-in-law here for her birthday on a Saturday evening, which she made reservations for a few days prior. Apparently, this location is on the smaller side, as evidenced by some of the tables being in close proximity to one another. They do valet out front, so you need to park a bit farther away in the parking lot if you self-park. Our server Steve was awesome. He gave great recommendations: the $20 calamari appetizer was some of the best, most tender calamari I ve ever had, and the $17 Stoli Doli cocktail was delicious. I also loved the $25 lobster mac & cheese, and the $13 brussel sprouts were tender and flavorful. The birthday girl enjoyed her $16 black tie margaritas, her $16 lobster bisque, and her $75 porcini rubbed bone-in ribeye (which was over-seared and burnt read more below). My in-laws both enjoyed their $52 miso butter sea bass. However, my $56 10 oz filet mignon was disappointing. It came out medium rare as I had asked for, but the outside was burned I had to cut off both the top and the sides of the cut for being tough and, well, inedible. My husband got the $62 bone-in Kona crusted dry aged NY strip, medium rare, also burnt and dry. He wished he had gotten the rib eye, which would have been more likely to have been tender. Since we had informed the restaurant of our table s birthday, they were sweet to have had a birthday card and confetti at the table when we sat down, as well as a complimentary birthday dessert plate at the end of the meal (the flourless chocolate espresso cake is delicious, and the cheesecake is great). Also, their bread basket is bomb, especially the cheese bread. Overall, I really enjoyed the atmosphere, the service, and the sides. But I would pass on any of their steaks. Stick to their seafood.

Hello, Last week my husband and I celebrated our anniversary at this location. From our first moments we knew this was going to be a great night. Warmly greeted and escorted to a decorated table with a congratulatory note. We were so pleased when we met our waitress Colleen. She is so personable and charming. Colleen was very attentive to our order and my allergy. We enjoyed oysters, the NY Strip and Salmon. Absolutely delicious and hot. Perfect! We were surprised by a complimentary champagne and dessert platter at the end. Such a special gesture. The whole evening was wonderful. But the highlight was Colleen who just made our night as we chatted with her off and on. She is a delight and turned our quiet dinner into a festive event. She even took our picture and presented the photo to us. We will be back! Thank you! Mary Dietary restrictions: Excellent attention to a gluten allergy.

My husband and I went during lunch on a Tuesday and sat in the lounge area. Ordered the prime ribeye entree and got a ribeye sandwich instead. The server corrected the order but we got another sandwich the second time. When we finally got the actual ribeye entree, the steak was cut in half and burnt. The mashed potatoes were bland. This was a lunch date to celebrate our anniversary. It was a very disappointing experience. We should have gone to Smith and Wollensky instead.

Our meals were amazing - appetizer, salads, steaks, and sides - everything was perfect. It was the most delicious meal Ive ever had a restaurant! Our server Byron was beyond fantastic and the manager Roberto stopped and chatted with us as well.

I want to start that overall the staff is super attentive and the atmosphere is dim and intimate. Me and my fiancée decided to give this places a go since we ve had a date night in mind. We were greeted and seated and our waiters service was great! We started with two entres an aged rib eye steak & me a salmon with two sides of mashed potatoes and bacon Brussels sprouts. Upon arrival on the entres I will say the taste of the salmon wasn t he greatest, there was no skin on the salmon and a lack of flavor. My fiancée s said his steak lacked some juiciness and taste as well. We ve gone to other steak houses before and we re pretty ethnic when it comes to flavors and spices so we were a bit let down of our expectations regarding the taste of the food. It was an experience, but probably won t be back I ve had better
