I dined at the Capital Grille...

So .....I dined at The Capital Grille for Winter Restaurant Weeks (WRW).  I'm usually excited about restaurant weeks and I guess this time, I was even more exited because I've felt so beaten down by the snow and bad weather these past few weeks.   I don't think I was alone.    WRW is a busy time for Stamford Downtown Restos--All of them.   But.... because I know Capital Grille is sooooo popular, I had made my reservations a couple of weeks ago.  Good thing cause they were packed solid.  Not an empty seat at  8pm!  Anyhow.....me & my dining buddies were excited to join the energy in the main dining room. It's gorgeous; huge with lots of chatter.  The menu arrived and we were offered many choices.  But I came for the WRW menu and although there were a 1/2 dozen options to choose, ironically, we all chose the same dish.  Filet mignon, please. All around.   Oh, and as usual, it was outstanding.  I don't think Capital Grille could do wrong: Filet, mashed potatoes & beans with creme brulee dessert.  Yum.  I wasn't counting calories, not that I normally count calories, but this was beyond wanting to keep track. Good stuff.   Did I mention the awesome service?  Of course. 
I'm coming back again.  Looking forward to next restaurant weeks for sure.  : )  #stamforddowntown
