Had the Rock and Roll sushi rolls for entree and the hot peppers as an appetizer. The sushi roll is packed with crab meat and is absolutely delicious! You cannot beat the hot peppers either my husband and I had two servings of it together.! Highly recommend Mount Fuji!!

The goat cheese, redfish and shrimp pasta were all excellent. The cheesecake was just okay. The two cocktails we got “Much Ado About Nothing” and the margarita were both excellent. If it’s crowded you might not be able to hear very well.

About the restaurant
The Capital Bar & Grill may be the embodiment of Capital’s Southern Comfortable culinary vision focusing on provincial comfort food with a particular emphasis on the bounty of Arkansas. The tools of the bar include the most sought-after liquors, mixers and ingredients. In sort of a back-to-the-future twist, it has been a devotion to handmade classic and custom cocktails (the Aviation vs. the Cropduster) that has established Capital Bar as a nationally-regarded spirits destination. All this said, we strive to create a fun, relaxing experience for all of our guests: The friendly atmosphere is especially suited to business lunches, after-work drinks and get-togethers, as well as special date nights.

Our server, Gaby, was on point with everything. We got refills before asking so she was great at anticipating our needs which was insane given how busy the restaurant was. It was a joy to have her level of service at our table.
