Server was great! I'm not sure how you can claim to be authentic Italian though and not use Guanciale in Carbonara, and also use sweet cream in it.

Nice people

Was pretty skeptical looking into restaurant from the sidewalk as a former culinary grad and native New Yorker. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by everything. Our waitress Melanie was very friendly and prompt. We had the fried calamari which came out hot and perfectly cooked on a bed of greens that was also delicious. My daughter had the pasta and meatballs, which was a surprisingly large portion for a kids meal. The Caesar salad was excellent in every way, creamy , cold and crispy just the way it’s supposed to be. The chicken parm cooked to perfection nice large portion with broccoli and garlic, cooked right with lot of flavor. Overall an excellent meal with excellent service. We definitely will be back ?

Great spot. The food and service were both great and the prices were reasonable. I had the chicken francese and pesto risotti and we shared some cannolis and chocolate cake. All were very good. We didn’t know about this place before but we’ll definitely be back.

After reading all the negative reviews I was kind of hesitant , but the food was decent. Bar was nice, place is nice, good selection of food and drinks. The service was really good. The build your own pizza for kids is pretty neat. My wife got pasta and I had a pizza. Both were good.

What isn't neat is a 3% charge for using a credit card. Who walks around with a ton of cash in 2024? Just raise your prices by 3% and don't tell anyone. That kind of annoyance makes me not want to come back.

If you walk around with cash or don't mind being advertised to that you are paying 3% more for using a card, then go here.

We came here for a family dinner, we were very pleased! Having recently moved to the area, we love how much more affordable it is to eat out here and will definitely keep this restaurant in our list of places to go again!

Tried to give this place a second chance. The food is so bland. Veal was burnt on the bottom. Penne with vodka sauce was dry, no flavor and the chicken Milanese was watery and also flavorless. It was like eating bowls of plain undercooked pasta. Tried to save the night with dessert and the cakes were dry and tasted stale. Even the salads are nothing special. Our server was great but don’t waste your money on this place.

First time trying Cappricis and I’ll say it was a great experience for me and the fam. Great tasty food, good drinks and great dessert. I actually felt like my money was well spent which is hard to come by for a dining experience these days.

We came here for my wife’s birthday dinner and sadly left very disappointed. The portion sizes were very small and left little to desire. Our food came out cold and sadly gave her and I food poisoning afterwards. But the icing on the cake was when a server and a front desk clerk went at it for the front desk clerk double seating the waitress. Never have I paid so much to be left so disappointed and frustrated with a dining experience. Maybe it was an off night but we will never be back.

We love Capricci’s! It’s a great date night spot that never disappoints. The food is great but what really keeps us coming back is our waitress, Ellie! She makes every meal so enjoyable and you can tell she truly cares about each person she is taking care of so definitely ask for her!! Some of our favorites are Penne Ala Vodka, Chicken Parm, Chicken Milanese with risotto and their pizzas are always delicious. A huge plus for me is that they are extra careful with food allergies I have and always go above and beyond to make sure there is no cross contamination with my allergies. Be sure to get a chocolate martini, they are so good!

We really wanted to like this place. The only good tasting thing we had was a special sirloin with mushrooms and risotto. The brussel sprouts were horrible and sent them back. The eggplant was bland. The service was good, but not enough to make us come back. More of a 2.75 stars than a 2.

Went on a Thursday night, not very busy. We had bread and meatballs with ricotta and had a great flavor. For dinner, we had the calzone and shrimp and Lobster Scampi, and for dessert was the mini cannolis. Everything was really good, and I will be back to try other items.

We've tried this place a few times and I've ordered different things. Everything tastes ok but isn't something like a true Italian Restaurant which makes you look forward to coming back for. Having grown up eating Italian food, this isn't it. Most items taste like what Provisions sells next store to them. Prices seem higher than what's expected.
