Capitol Restaurant

Had a set menu lunch which was incredible, full and rich flavours with very generous portions. Great service & ambience, would highly recommend and will revisit.

Friendly helpful staff here. I asked about vegetarian options and they offered to adjust a couple of dishes to suit.

There wasn’t anything g standout on the veggie options for me, but I chose the tagliatelle with broad beans and artichoke. They swapped the pancetta with onions and tomatoes.

It was a simple dish with good flavours. It didn’t knock my socks off but it was enjoyable and fresh.

I also ordered a glass of Pinot noir; Bannockburn. The waiter was very knowledgeable on the wine and helped me choose. A fine drop it was too.

We had the most amazing meal here for a team end of year function. Everything was perfect! Would highly recommend for larger groups, they were so accommodating and their customer service was brilliant

This is right up there on my list of fave eateries in the capital. They never put a foot wrong. The atmosphere is buzzy, but it's easy to feel intimate at a table for two. The service is impeccable and attentive. I took a friend's 13 year old daughter there and they treated her like royalty, explaining the specials. I have never had a single less than stellar dish. I'm vegetarian, so can't speak for the meat dishes, but there is always something on the menu that I can eat, and it's always the most perfect version of a risotto (for example) that I've tasted. I leave feeling really special every single time. Not cheap - the meal with the teenager was a couple of soft drinks, two mains and a shared dessert and came to a little under $100. But so worth it!
