Food was delicious. Service was excellent.  Was not my first visit and will not be my last.

Went to Capriccio's during Restaurant week and it was great! Service was tremendous (Shelly). The wine we requested was out of stock and Wine Captain gave is a better quality wine for similar price. Veal was delicious. Only negative is we ordered the Seafood Flambe but it was not prepared tableside. Overall, great experience and will be back soon.

Food was amazing, but unfortunately our waiter messed up three drinks and our dessert order. He was apologetic and fixed them, however for a restaurant of this caliber I expect much better.

Overall our dining experience was a delight from greeter to finish. The food was delicious and our server was impeccable which made for a memorable experience. We will add this restaurant to our list for a revisit. Special mention for our server Shelly. She was fabulous.

Been coming here for 23 years. There are three great restaurants in RI; Capriccio, 22 Bowen and Spain (Cranston). This is the top of the heap!

I wish I could give zero stars for food. The absolute worst dinner I've ever had. I had one bite and couldn't wait to get home to brush my teeth to get the horrible taste out of my mouth. Neither my husband or I ate any of our food. $180 down the drain

Service was bizzare. Wine service was SLOW. Waiter interrupted our cheers for my mom's bday to talk about specials. Then told us we had to order our food before he could bring out the apps. Food was lukewarm at best. My mom's was cold. My sisters steak cooked wrong. Waiter had to go ask the chef and said the chef agreed with her and would re cook it. The chef agreed? Wayyyyyyy too pricey for what was going on.

We waited for about 15 minutes before I was able to flag down a waiter helping another table. When realizing we had not been serviced, the assisting waiter immediately asked for our drink order. He rang that in and promised us that he spoke to our waiter, who would be by shortly. Another 20 minutes I had to flag down the assisting waiter, who took our order as courtesy. As he was repeating our order, our original waiter came by. The food was delivered promptly and was delicious. But we did not see the waiter again for another 30 minutes. The assisting waiter was helpful, but the service provided was lackluster, unfortunately. We will be going back, but hoping for another server!

Amazing restaurant! My family and myself enjoyed it so much. Every part of the night was fantastic. From the attentive service to the delectable food, the entire experience was 5+ stars! thank you for making our New Year's Eve memorable.

As a first-time guest, here's what I have to say; I was excited by the table-side flambé. Unfortunately, our waiter discouraged us from ordering a flambé dessert, explaining: “The kitchen is busy and we only have two guys doing flambé tonight.” That was disappointing—especially since the restaurant was only about half full.
Here’s what I learned:
• If you want flambé, stick to one of the two dinner items listed on the menu. • Dessert flambé is apparently off-limits, Fat Chance!, at least on busy nights.
Capriccio has the potential to deliver a truly memorable experience, better planning, scheduling, and training would make a big difference. The atmosphere was inviting—the place smelled fantastic when we arrived. But we left dissapointed and frustrated.
Dinning at its finest. The food, and ambiance is on another level. This is truly one of Rhode Island's best restaurant.

We decided to go here for our anniversary after seeing favorable reviews online. We couldn't have been any more disappointed by the experience.
First thing we noticed was the chaoticness of the wait staff navigating the dining room. It was also pretty loud in there.
However, the biggest disappointment came from the food. I feel like we weren't only robbed a great experience, but the $265.00 pre gratuity bill was the biggest crime.
We ordered two appetizers which were fine. We enjoyed the Grilled Caprese appetizer.
However, we ordered the Beef Wellington, asking for it them both to be medium. What we received was laughable for such a supposed high end restaurant. Both steaks came out rare, blue in the middle, with the pastry barely cooked. The whole thing exploded when I cut into it.
I am not picky, so I decided to eat it without complaint, but my wife struggled to get past the blue and bleeding steak. The plate was covered in blood, and the pastry was a ball of play doh from being so undercooked.
It took 10 minutes just to find our waiter to get them to fix her plate. I thought to myself that being such a high end place, they'd bring her a new one, cooked to temp, and without the pastry being raw.
Nope! 5 minutes later, they bring her steak back, with the pastry thrown away, and it clearly having been put in the oven or mocrowave- who knows. What was laughable was that the steak was still undercooked and they threw on a bunch of hard undercooked carrots. It was disgusting.
Thats not even mentioning the $18 drinks that were already in a small glass, containing 90% ice. So much ice in fact, that it hurt your teeth and made it difficult to drink the few drops of alcohol they spared.
I will never be coming back to this place and I will be sure to make sure my friends and family dont make the same mistake we did.
We ended up spending $315.00 for two entrees, two appetizers, and four drinks. For a dismal experience that almost ruined our special night, if it hadn't provided humor after the fact, with how God awful it was.
Crazy they can get away with serving such mediocre food for outrageous prices. I could cook a Wellington better than they did.
Be sure to look at the photos for how raw and gross both plates were.

Definitely the best Veal Saltimbocca that I have ever tasted. The lobster bisque was a flavorful delight to start the meal also. I hope to make it back to Providence to visit again soon.

Always a Big Fan! Haven't been in a couple years. Life Changes. Best Dining experience EVER! From entering the doors and the ambiance was perfect. Server was exceptional. Staff very friendly and there for anything before you request. Timing on everything was better that perfect. Be back very soon. Can't wait. Prices very reasonable for the food and service. Felt like a queen! Thank you
