Fresh flowers, gentle romantic lighting, chairs you can sink into, and live pianists make for an unforgettable dining experience at Il Capriccio.

    I definitely would return to try more dishes. The oysters with crab meat ( Oyster Ripiene) for my wife appetizer and the prosciutto with honeydew( Culatello) are so good. Filet Mignon melt in your mouth. Better than Ruth's Chris Steak House. The Branzino is very good. Service is excellent with Alex the waiter and his good sense of humor. The Director at the dining room Salvatore Le Rose with is smiling face makes you comfortable.

    The service was impeccable. Old school all male servers who were all very attentive but women would also be just as attentive if they were also part of the service. All meals were perfect along with the portion size. Just perfect which was satisfying without having to worry about leftovers. Enjoyed every single bite to to last. Highly recommend for every aspect. Can be a special occasion destination or even for a more casual experience.

    Food was bland service was great. Seafood salad and tuna crudo were bland. Both fish were cooked well the sides were a bit of a let down. The broccoli rabe and cannellini beans served with the Chilean sea bass left much to be desired.

    The staff was amazing. The food was disappointing. The amount of protein to pasta was way off. One baby lobster tail and 5 or 6 clams for a whole dish of pasta at 38 dollars was hardly value for the money. Even the unseasoned broccoli rabe was 15 dollars as a separate side dish. The service is what saves the place.

    Once again Il Capriccio meets the mark with outstanding food and service. Although prices have risen, they have done so minimally. The food continues to be delicious and is served with a flair not seen in very many places today unfortunately. It is no wonder that the restaurant is a favorite not just for me, but for all those who appreciate a fine meal.
