[QUOTE="tcumaniac, post: 2720701, member: 31299"] I’ve concluded that the majority of people are just purely ignorant when it comes to knowing the difference between a good steak and an average one. Capital Grille excels at creating an upscale atmosphere, providing decent service, and making its customers feel as if they’re experiencing an upscale dining experience. Their appetizers, sides, drinks and deserts are on par with other upscale dining establishments. Accomplish all of this and you’ve already convinced the majority of your customers that you’re a phenomenal restaurant. The unfortunate reality is that their steaks simply aren’t very good. And I’ve eaten there more than a handful of times, always desperately hoping that every previous experience was a fluke, and that they’ll finally live up to the hype. Never. Every time the steak has been insultingly bad. Don’t get me wrong, everything else about the experience was good. But their steaks are complete garbage. Filets have always been flavorless and poorly cooked. Ribeye (I’ve ordered twice) was tough, chewy, and lacking of flavor. The “dry aged” strip, which I’ve ordered numerous times has always been bleh. And I love a good dry aged steak. I love the richer, beefier flavor, and the more tender and buttery texture of a well dry aged steak. I’m convinced Capital doesn’t actually dry age. Haven’t tasted even a hint of the distinguishing characteristics of a dry aged steak any time I’ve ordered it at Capital. Just so bland and boring every time. They also coincidentally are big proponents of adding one of their sauces to your steak. Makes sense why. Anyway. It really pisses me off that Capital is the #1 ranked steakhouse on trip advisor for Fort Worth. Complete scam. If you actually care about the quality of your steak, strongly advise avoiding.
