Our party of 6 was there last night. 4 of us had terrible meals baked ziti was like soup, cesear salad was like salt and not even the correct salad dressing, reported this to our server could dare less. Offered free dessert order it and never bought it to us. They don't care about you. Server just kept passing us by.Will never go back
Five of us had an excellent dinner with good service. Small to medium place, right in town.
We came on a weeknight and shared some appetizers. Salad, arancini, tomatoes and mozzarella, all excellent. I had the eggplant parmigiana which came with a side of pasta that tasted homemade. The sauce was very good, an important test for any Italian place.
Vegetarian options: Typical for an Italian restaurant. Pasta, eggplant, salads and veggies. Not a huge selection, but two of us were vegetarian and enjoyed our meals.

Unless you like under cooked pasta, this place is not at the top of our list. Atmosphere was good very good service but there were four of us and all pasta was under cooked.?

Tonight we discovered the authentic taste of Italy right in Needham. This restaurant offers a wide variety of dishes that highlight the unique flavors of different Italian regions. Our group of four reveled in the delicious homemade braised meatballs and burrata, expertly paired with crispy Brussels sprouts, balsamic vinegar and slivered almonds. Our friendly server Lidia provided excellent recommendations for our entrees, which included house-made rigatoni vodka, with Calabrian chili, tomato and cream. A black truffle wheel with cacio e pepe rigatoni and a delicious chicken parmigiano made with plum tomato sauce and topped with fresh basil. Dessert was a piece of crème brûlée cheesecake and a slice of flourless chocolate brownie torte set atop raspberry sauce with a dollop of fresh creme. Every dish was crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients and left us feeling full and content. The musician Carlo added a touch of elegance with his accordion and keyboard performance. I can honestly recommend dining at Cappella for a delicious Italian dinner. We will return again soon.

Branzino was to die for. My boyfriend ordered a burger, and it was also good. The service was fast, probably, too fast (we were in and out within an hour, but I guess they needed a quick turn out on Saturday night)”

Staff delivered impeccable service and the food was spot on...but the wine made the meal complete. A gem that took me way too long to find but will definitely go back.

Overview: Really good Italian FoodMeal/Time: Dinner/Wednesday/Party of 5Seated: immediately 446PM for a 5PM reservationOrdered: 503PMFirst ordered item arrived: 513PMDecor/Atmosphere:Nice classic Italian American Restaurant; high end casualService/ Front of the House:Very nice and accomdating.Service/Serving Staff:Bread and water on the table within 1 minutes of seating.Jen is friendly and personable. She checked back regularly.Food:The Brussels & Buratta $16- appetizer... charred Brussel Sprouts served with a creamy mozzarella. You get a combination of flavors, nuttiness, sweetness and a bit of bitter. A really well balanced dish.The Chicken Parmigiano $29- hearty breaded chicken served over a bed of gemelli well sauced with plum tomato sauce topped with fresh basil.My wife had the Black Truffle Wheel $26. I had a few bites of this. The pasta is brought to the table in a wheel of Parmigiano. The heat from the pasta and truffle oil melts the cheese and in turns coats the pasta. If you like cheese, truffle and freshly cracked black pepper this dish is for you.Value: Really good value to quality and quantity. We had leftovers.Restroom: Men's Room single. Clean and well stocked. Bright with plenty of room.Will I come back?: Yes, I would come back. Next time, I will order the Truffle Wheel.
