- CC.vipChicago / Illinois •327 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoBeing Italian, I’m not quick to recommend “Italian “ restaurants. Capri, however, is superb. Just like being in a countryman’s home. We are blessed in Burr Ridge, to have this gem. My friend and I had the fried calamari with our martinis. The meat was tender, and there wasn’t a trace of grease to be seen. I chose the penne arribiatta for my entre. It was pleasantly spicy. Not overwhelming. My friend had the shrimp and linguini. They were the largest shrimp I’ve seen in a restaurant. Both pastas were perfectly al dente. My limoncello float was a perfect ending along with delicious espresso. My lunch mate loved here tiramisu and carpaccio. Lovely interlude on a cold late autumn afternoon.More infoCapri by Gigi/Capri Ristorante Burr RidgePrice: Expensive• Italian• Burr Ridge•4.7

If you like hot, you'll find hole-in-the-wall Cajun, Mexican and Creole spots ready to turn up the heat. Then stop by some local pubs and taverns to cool down.
