Salmon dish was delicious! And so was the sugar cookie martini. I have to say I didn't have the highest expectations, but I was surprisingly impressed.
To satisfy my desire for a burger while on Vacation, and with my stomach feeling better, we enjoyed an early dinner after a full morning of running errands, we stopped in at Capitol Grill for the New Mexico Signature Green Chili Cheeseburger and fries. We were warmly escorted by the hostess across the dimly lit and relaxing dining room, where we chose to sit in a booth. The burger was spicy but delicious, and the service was quick and helpful. From where we sat , we were able to see TVs playing sports at the bar. Hubby and I enjoyed our experience and look forward to our return!

Well they were out of first choice for apps. So tried fried cheese pretty good!! The food was really good drinks were good. Would definitely recommend And you can sit at bar look outside was very beautiful day!!
My husband and I sat in the bar in a booth and service was so slow! If we come back again, we will not be doing that. The Happy Hour menu impressed with its variety, especially the popular wings. Our choice of popcorn shrimp, served with fries, was enjoyable. The frozen mango margarita was a pleasant surprise, adding to the positive note of our experience. It's worth noting that Happy Hour runs daily from 3-6 pm. I'm often skeptical of chains but for HH, it's a solid choice.
So we were on the way to our normal Friday evening place, Plaza Cafe Southside, when the boy wanted us to try this place. Drawing a direct comparison with its next door neighbor, here is what we concluded. Everything we had (Chicken Alfredo, Green Chile Pork Stew, and Fried Coconut Shrimp) was good. The nachos, however, were just OK. Plaza cafe's nachos are much better. The Posole at Plaza Cafe is also superior to the stew I had. We did, however, note that prices at Capitol Grill were lower than the Plaza Cafe. All in all a positive experience and with a cost conscious spouse, we're bound to return.
All good! We had a large party of like 15 for Father's Day and the meal was perfect and service even better. Thank you guys so much.
