| Good luck getting a table at The Capital Grille if there’s a convention in town. The place is packed most nights, with reservations secured weeks in advance. And for good reason: it’s some of the finest dining on bustling International Drive, better known for fast-casual restaurants where families fill up. But this is an oasis of gentility, with dark mahogany wood, white linens, plush leather booths and wine lockers for locals to stash their best wines (with 5,000 bottles in the Grille’s cellar). The food is classic steakhouse fare, from the wedge of iceberg topped with blue cheese to a 24-ounce porterhouse. The filet mignon is dressed up with sweet cippolini onions and sautéed wild mushrooms. If you prefer seafood, go for a meaty grilled swordfish with roasted veggies. Whatever you order, ask for a side of crisp truffled fries with Parmesan and kosher salt. Lush Wagyu beef carpaccio and butter-poached lobster are also offered. If you’ve got room for dessert, the fresh berries in vanilla cream is the lesser of all evils. Even if you’re not on an expense account, phone ahead, save up and get ready for an upscale night on the town. |
