Capitol Grille

Voted one of the best restaurants in the United States.

  • Seafood dishes & meat platters
  • Vegetarian dishes offered
  • Extensive wine list

The Capitol Grille is a celebrated and award-winning venue. Superbly appointed in an understated style of traditional elegance, the hotel's restaurant has hosted some of America's most noted individuals while serving as a gathering place for Nashvillians. Using the freshest regional ingredients, Executive Chef Tyler Brown prepares a memorable celebration of creative southern cuisine for every occasion with an emphasis on certified Tennessee Black Angus Beef and game, market fresh seafood, and the freshest and best available local products.

Located in what was originally the main dining room, and then a private men's club in the historic Hermitage Hotel, the restaurant's traditional ambiance and refinement complement creative luncheon and dinner menus, an exclusive wine list, and impeccable service.

Editorial Review for Capitol Grille – by Mindy Merrell

In Short
Vaulted ceilings, European banquettes and plush fabrics create an atmosphere of opulence and luxury. At breakfast and lunch, this is the biggest power scene in town. The dinner crowd consists of theatergoers, special-occasion diners and expense-account types. The upscale, Southern-tinged menu offers plenty of fabulous-sounding options, like the buttery lobster with orzo and peas. Not-to-be missed extra side include sauteed sweet potatoes with lump crab meat or stone-ground cheese grits.

I decided to take my girlfriend out to dinner since we didn't get to see each other on Valentine's Day due to me being a line cook. I chose this restaurant based on everything I have heard and read about it. i wanted to experience everything the restaurant had to offer, so i requested a tasting menu. This was the best decision i could have made. Every course of the 9 that we had was fantastic. It included such items as Foie gras mousee, veal tongue, burgundy truffles, sweet breads, and various emulsions. My girlfriend is pretty picky, and with all of organ meat on the menu i thought she would not enjoy the meal, but from the amuse bouche on she continued eating. that just goes to show that the chefs here are top notch. If you can get a normally picky eater to eat bluefin tuna toro, veal sweetbreads, and veal tongue, you know you are doing something right. our server was amazing and extremely knowledgeable. overall the experience was amazing.

Pros: Everything

Cons: nothing. we were treated like royalty
