Best Steak

The Capital Grille

Published on October 18, 2001

We may have hell to pay from Kansas City's independent steak houses for naming the Capital Grille as the home of this year's best steak, but the Atlanta-based chain serves one helluva Kansas City strip. Not since Gypsy Rose Lee did one of her earliest gigs at the Folly Theatre has a local strip been so memorable. The Capital Grille dry-ages its strips and Porterhouse cuts in a temperature-controlled environment for fourteen days, exposing the beef to air in order to concentrate the flavors. The meat comes out so smooth and tender that it needs no embellishment. But if you so choose, the Capital Grille will present its Kansas City strip topped with a choice of Roquefort butter or garlic butter, or grilled up au poivre with a cognac cream sauce.
