    I have been to this location several times and I am pleased to report they are consistently outstanding in terms of food, service and providing a great overall dining experience. Dinners have been great, but today I enjoyed the lunch menu. Our server was Susie and she did a great job! I’ll add that in my numerous visits a number of other servers provided outstanding service. Servers are attentive and also do a great job of supporting each other and acting as a customer service ‘team.’ From the hostess to the Manager, the kitchen staff and the servers, you’ll find a commitment to excellence at the Capital Grille ~ Sarasota.

    Service was excellent. Ambience is always nice, but the room was particularly cold on our latest visit to Paris Bistrot. Starters and the house bread were wonderful, but the mains (duck and a pork dish) were both rather tough.

    Ambience is really nice. The service was top notch. Food is a little high on price. Flavor was good but the temperature wasn’t as expected. Will return and try something different then the Chicken Parmesan.

    Sushi was great with some unique rolls. Server was friendly and helpful. Drinks were good but a little slow coming from bar. 3 rolls and 2 drinks was $110 so a little bit pricey value wise but I guess expected in a mall setting. We would go back.
