About this restaurant

  • Romantic
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
Everything about Capannina is soft and subtle. The decor - celadon green upper walls, ambra marble below, handmade glass lamps, hanging mirror panels and faux columns that glow from the lights behind them - is simple yet striking. The marble, the lamps, and many of the ingredients used in the excellent dishes are all imported from Italy and the subtle softness of the interior extends to the food: eclectic Italian with an emphasis on Southern Italian tradition while still maintaining well-orchestrated choices from all over Italy. With pasta made in-house and delightfully fresh buffalo mozzarella coming from Italy, Capannina offers the essence of subtlety in the artistic presentation of its menu, along with an atmosphere that conveys the slightest California touch. PLEASE NOTE: We also offer a prix fixe menu daily, consisting of a three-course dinner for $35 per person from 5pm to 6pm.

    This place has been in existence for many years and unfortunately we just discovered it. A real find for those of us who appreciate a non trendy restaurant, but one who prides on tasty food, pleasant atmosphere and some of the best service around. It truly is a 'locals' place and although this was only our second time there, I foresee us going back many times over.

    Terrible service. I travel a lot and have dined all over the world. This establishment was a great disappointment. Not just inept, but arrogantly so.

    Food was authentic and very tasty. Waiter very friendly and attentive. Dishes are a bit on the expensive side but worth it.

    Loved the quaint atmosphere, service was excellent, and food was tasty. Some items seem a bit overpriced, but others are what they should be( all in all, I would like to return soon because we all truly enjoyed our food and service.
