About LA CAPRICCIOSA

La Capricciosa is a hidden gem in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, offering an authentic Italian dining experience. This restaurant serves pinsa, a unique pizza-like dish made with lighter, easier-to-digest dough that is lower in fat than traditional pizza. The menu showcases a variety of options, including antipasti, pasta, and seafood dishes, all made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Standout dishes include the Bruschetta Nduja, Tagliere, Flete di Branzino, Bucatini Amatriciana, and Risotto Frutti di Mari. The restaurant features an open-air patio, a curated wine list, and a charming atmosphere that reminds guests of being in Italy. The friendly and knowledgeable staff provide excellent service, and the restaurant offers flexibility with dine-in, take-out, and delivery options.

However, La Capricciosa recently closed its doors in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea but plans to reopen in a new location. Customers have praised the restaurant for not being typical American Italian cuisine, noting the amazing dishes and the large Parmesan wheel for hot pasta. With its delicious food, charming ambiance, and variety of options, La Capricciosa remains a must-visit destination for anyone seeking an authentic Italian culinary experience, and many are eagerly awaiting its reopening.
