Lovely place. We were formally dressed but we noticed that casual attire was welcome. The menu offers just the right amount of options and they get the taste right. My husband loved the rabbit sausage. Already planning to return :)

The food at Caprice Bistro seemed extra tasty and delicious last night. The duck was some of the best duck I have had. Everything was perfect .

Ambiance was very nice as soon as we walked in. All the wait staff very friendly and they helped each other out. I ordered the pistachio crusted salmon and it was done to perfection. Tables are very close to each other; thus my lower rating on the noise level. I could hear the other couples conversation. BUT the food was outstanding and brought out at the right times. We will definitely go back.

Long time customers here. Caprice changed ownership a few months ago, and we were happy to find that the food quality, service and ambiance have not changed. There have been few if any changes to the menu or wine list. We learned about their Happy Hour offerings which we will definitely try soon.

We have eaten at Caprice Bistro for many years. Owners changed so wanted to see if anything changed. No Pork Cheeks. They need to update their menu on their web site. What we ordered was still very good.

From the opening salvo of an espresso martini, through crepe Caprice and Carolina mountain trout and a dessert of Café Liégeois, this boy was quite pleased. Rolled out of there with a big satisfied smile.

Waiter had way too many tables. Service was poor. Food quality was not good, bread was cold . Got charged for switching mashed potatoes to couscous's. Tried to get his attention to change some potatoes to french fries and he never did come over when he finally did. He said oh it's too late once I put the order in it could never be changed. escargot was lukewarm and the steak absolutely had no sear at all. Fries were barely cooked, soggy limp . The food quality with the new owners has certainly gone downhill will not be returning

My favorite restaurant in Wilmington. The food is always authentic and amazing. Amazing fish soup. The service is great and as compared to other restaurants these days, prices are extremely reasonable. From the appetizers to the mains, to desserts, everything is fresh and wonderful. 
Wonderful experience!! Our food was superb. Two of us had the halibut special. It was the best halibut I've ever had. The service was excellent. One of our favorite restaurants in Wilmington.

A true dining experience. The escargot appetizer was delicious. The halibut and beef bourguignon were exceptional. Will return often!

Five stars for every possible evaluative measure! Gracious host. Nick, our server, was solid and pleasant. Drinks were amazing and strong. Food is on another level. This is elevated casual fine dining at its best.

We have been coming to Caprice for 18 years. Every time, the food, drinks, and service were fantastic. This year, we knew we were in trouble when the owner did not greet us at the door and took us to our seats. It started with the 45-minute wait for the first round of drinks. Sure, it was a Friday night but that still seemed excessive. One drink was correct, the other one was not. Another 20 minutes and we both finally had the right drink. Bread was skipped until we specifically asked for it. We ordered the special heirloom tomato salad as an appetizer. The tomato was past its prime and should not have been served to anyone. We then ordered our entrees. One came out correct - the other did not. Instead of the lamb, the waiter brought out a pork chop. Not even close. The food was lackluster at best. We spent about $200 between two people and left disappointed. Prices are now more like a New York City restaurant - only, we are in Wilmington. The quality of the cooking and the food does not match the prices anymore. The waiter was atrocious. My husband had to go up the bar to get a second drink because the waiter just ignored us. The two tables next to us had a similar experience - also wrong food and drink and long wait. Sadly, after 18 years, we are now not returning to Caprice.

We were looking forward to a nice dinner. The atmosphere was pleasant, it was noisy but still pleasant. We ordered the mussel appetizer it was very bland tasting. I ordered the swordfish it was also very bland it seemed like it was heated up in the microwave the plate was scolding hot and the food was hot on the outside not so much on the inside. My husband ordered the beef tips with a brown gravy-type sauce with mushrooms and carrots. He said that the sauce was good but the meat had an odd texture and a bitter taste. Unfortunately, he spent the rest of the evening sick in the restroom. Thinking it was possibly bad meat. We cannot say for sure. There were just too many issues that came up with the food to leave a good review. I hope that this was random and that the food is typically better than our experience.
