Does The Capital Grille have a dress code? Yes, but it’s the easiest code to crack. Think “nice dinner with your parents” or “lunch with your boss who’s actually cool.” You don’t need a tux, you don’t need a ball gown, and you definitely don’t need to stress.
Just leave the gym clothes at home. And the Crocs. Please, for the love of steak, leave the Crocs at home. If you show up in a clean shirt that doesn’t have a cartoon character on it, you’re already winning.
So go ahead. Book that table. Wear your favorite jeans. Order the bone-in ribeye. And if someone at the next table gives you a side-eye, just nod at them and say, “Trying to be refined, but casually.” They’ll understand. They’re just another human trying to figure out their own closet, too.
