Caprice Bistro

One of my "go-to"restaurants in Wilmington. It is consistently good , and the price point for the cuisine and wine is very reasonable. Never had a disappointing meal here. By the way, the upper and lower levels of the restaurant offer two very different atmospheres. The main level is very bistro, complete with white table cloths, flower arrangements and tin ceiling. Very nice. The upper level features a small bar at the top of the stairs and casual seating inside the dining area. A few tables are arranged in the front near the windows for a cozy/intimate dining experience. Try both (cuisine is the same on either level). If you are a mussels fan, they serve the best PEI mussels ever offered in 2 sizes ( the small is huge - the large is fit for sharing) and 3 preparations - all excellent. Their other dishes range from fresh fish preparations to lamb shank. Save room for desserts!

The restaurant atmosphere was cozy and warm. Servers were helpful and attentive. Food was very good with enough variety for any palette.

Tables were close, but noise was never an issue. In fact, we exchanged food reviews and recommendations among the tables. It was pleasant and reminded me of many Parisian restaurant experiences.

Everything was excellent.

We have dined in NYC's French restaurants as well as many in Paris. This measures up to them all. The menu is very very French and the ambiance can lead one to believe they are in France. Food is top of the line. We keep coming back for more. When you go, try the Pig's Checks.

Everything was of the usual high standard. The mussels were exceptional. The server named Katie was very good. The Cappuccino could have been hotter.

Always been a customer for years. A pleasure to take friends and family

It was perfect

It is a fantastic restaurant. It is a great place to do have a nice romantic dinner.

This was my second time to this lovely restaurant with great atmosphere, fantastic food and great value. The service was just okay, but did not spoil the fantastic meal.

Fantastic food and ambiance! Service was a little off.

It was good. I had the Wayertooi which I enjoyed. Service was great and drinks were very good. Food was good but I think a little overpriced.

We had reservations for 4 on February 16, 2019 and had a wonderful experience! We had eaten there in the past but our friends had not and they loved it! The food was over the top and Jessica took very good care of us. we will eat there again!

A wonderful place to have a delicious meal with you significant other.

Best french restaurant in Wilmington. Mussels are fantastic well worth a visit .

As always dinner was excellent along with the service and atmosphere. Caprice is our favorite and never disappoints.

Great staff and great food. Highly recommend. Happy Valentine’s!!

We had an enjoyable pre-Valentine's dinner at Caprice. Steak Frites were good - although the medium rare steak was more like a medium steak. Dessert was delicious.

Amazing food & service & so pleased to meet owner who greeted us.

Always a great dining experience. One of our favorite restaurants.

Love this restaurant!! Food is always great, service is attentive, ambiance is terrific and all at a good value. Highly recommend.

Intimate atmosphere. We sat upstairs. Mussels are a treat and a great value! My salad, endive, and his onion tart app were superb! His scallops- amazing. Great place in lovely Downtown Wilmington!

Once again, a fabulous dinner experience in the best restaurant in Wilmington NC. A consistent menu with superb European undertones and highly efficient servers makes this restaurant the best of the bests not only in Wilmington but also everywhere else in NC.
The food is delicious, the wine selection is excellent, and the desserts are supreme. I have been in this restaurant numerous times and I had never a bad experience.

Food was outstanding . Service was fantastic. Chairs were not the most comfortable. Overall a keeper.

I had a late reservation and closed the restaurant. The service was gracious and unhurried. The food was EXCELLENT

Entire dining experience was wonderful!

Always reliably good.

We were warmly welcomed immediately upon entering, with a birthday being noted. Service by Jay and Jessica was outstanding; very personable and professional. They, and the excellent meal(s), made for any extremely enjoyable experience. There is only one opportunity to make a great first impression and Caprice certainly hit the mark. We hope to return again soon.

We've been enjoying special dinners at Caprice Bistro for over 15 years and, like good wine, it just gets better with age.

Always a pleasure. Patricia is welcoming and trains her staff to treat guests warm and professional. Food is perfection!

Excellent Chef and staff

Consistently a gastric treat. Good value & service.

Very nice. Great food.

My favorite restaurant in or around Wilmington for French cuisine. It never disappoints!

Another wonderful dinner at Caprice. Excellent food and drinks with friendly professional service. One of the best restaurants in the Wilmington NC area. Go and taste for yourself.

If you like French bistro style food, this is it. Had the menu been in French, we could easily have thought we were in the countryside of France. The owners are equally pleasant.

I have been coming to Caprice Bistro from Raleigh since the first winter it opened. It was incredibly wonderful then and never disappoints. The food is delectable, well prepared, authentic French cooking. The wait staff is friendly, attentive, and gracious. Patrice, the owner along with her husband, is always welcoming and accommodating. It is a joy to go to such a delightful spot.
I brought my teenaged son for the first time on Sunday evening and he was blown away by how much he enjoyed the food. Each dish was better than the last and he thanked me repeatedly for bringing him to Caprice.
This is easily the very best restaurant in Wilmington. Thank you!

One of the finest restaurants in NC. It was a cold night out so whenever the door opens the breeze is very uncomfortable... there is a curtain but people pull it back to pass thru and staff doesn't bother to close it. Unfortunate. I think the noise level is a little high for this fine of a restaurant.
The food is absolutely outstanding. The service was very good and the waiter knew the menu and made some very good observations.

Celebrated our wedding anniversary and had a fantastic dinner. Started out with a french martini which was so good. We shared the escargo appetizer and the sauce alone makes you salivate. So yummy. I had the crepes and my husband had the pork tenderloin. The food is fantastic. Had a great time. Thank you all so much. We will be back.

Just ok, a little disappointed in the calamari. Service was great. beef not tender, sauce good. Just ok. And too loud for conversation. Service was great.

This restaurant is a gem. French bistro atmosphere and food was outrageously wonderful. This will be a regular for us !
