Had a really great steak for diner. The lobster bisque was the best we have ever had. Expect to spend more than average but worth it. Seafood was also good.

Generally, I like to stay away from public places for Mother's Day. The crowds are untenable, and I would greatly prefer to stay home with my family and have a prime grade steak grilled by my skilled husband on our BeefEater grill. This year, I left the decision on what to do for Mother's Day with my husband. I supplied... More

Needles to say that by the time we got to it, the food was not warm any more. I ordered my steak medium and it was... More

Capital Grille and Sullivan's are a toss up for me. The menu at Capital Grille tip the scales just a bit in their favor. One of my favorites in D-Town.

Food is outstanding here. Great location for when you are going near downtown. The service is also wonderful - their hamburgers are to die for

We were looking for a nice restaurant to try before attending a show at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts. This was our first time eating at a Capital Grille, and I'm glad to find out there are others in different cities so maybe I can try another one while traveling on business. It would be terrific for a... More

What can I say! I was there twice in two weeks and loved it each time! I had booked through open table and got superior service and helpful, friendly waitstaff. The steaks were out of this world! The lobster bisque (off menu, but ask for it) was filled with lobster meat and sherry. The salads were tasty and FRESH! Oh,... More
