"I was in no hurry to leave"
From Las Vegas Review-Journal's Heidi Knapp Rinella
"I liked the atmosphere at The Capital Grille so much, I was in no hurry to leave.
It would be easy to call it a throwback, because they're not building many places like The Capital Grille anymore, but there's nothing old-fashioned, out-of-date or even retro about it. It's a contemporary version of the classic steakhouse, almost monumental in scale -- the place seems to go on forever -- decorated in dark woods and muted colors. There's a classic dark-wood bar, stately lighting, soaring ceilings, servers that seem to fade into the background until you need one. And while the designers naturally included walls of windows to take advantage of the third-floor views of the iconic Las Vegas Strip, even those are less frenzied than they might be; ours was of the forest at Wynn Las Vegas and the soft lights beyond. The whole feeling is subdued elegance, and most of all comfort.
And the food? Well, if you plan to dine at The Capital Grille, be sure to bring an appetite."
