The Capital Grille, an upscale steakhouse founded in Rhode Island in 1990, is opening a new steakhouse on June 14, its second metro Detroit location.
Located at 17117 Laurel Park Drive North, near Laurel Park Place shopping center, the new restaurant covers 9,260 square feet and was built by the Leonard C. Carnaghi Inc. construction company in Clinton Township.
The first local Capital Grille has been operating on the north side of the Somerset Collection in Troy for close to 30 years, overcoming a closure and remodeling due to a 2022 fire.
“I’m most excited to create memorable experiences through exceptional hospitality for the Livonia community,” says metro Detroit native Reed W. Styers, managing partner. “We are, and always will be, a relationship brand, and we’re honored each time guests choose to dine with us. We look forward to delivering elevated experiences at the Capital Grille Livonia as guests celebrate life’s special moments.”
The Capital Grille is best known for its “expertly prepared steaks,” which are dry aged in house for 18 to 24 days and then hand-cut by the restaurant’s on-premises butcher. Its wine list features more than 350 selections, and its floor-to-ceiling wine kiosk regularly houses 3,500 – 5,000 bottles.
The new location includes private dining spaces, a lounge, wine lockers, and a temperature-controlled wine cellar.
Starting June 14, the restaurant will serve lunch on weekdays and dinner daily. Standard operational hours post-launch are expected to be Monday-Thursday 11:30 a.m.-9 p.m., Friday 11:30 a.m.-10 p.m., Saturday 4-10 p.m., and Sunday 4-9 p.m.
Reservations can be secured directly through The Capital Grille website or via OpenTable.
