    We were looking for somewhere new to try in our area, and Capers & Lemons was well-reviewed, so we decided to give it a try. We are very glad we did! Friendly staff, great recommendations, and my Italian husband and I were both very impressed with the food and drinks. Portion sizes were generous and delicious! Highly recommend!

    We’ve been to Capers & Lemons many times over the years and it’s consistently a great experience. This time we went for my mom’s birthday. The food was great, they have plenty of options for different dietary preferences, and the service was outstanding with our server even noticing our drink wasn’t made right and immediately replacing it for us. Will continue going back!

    Our server was new, greeted us quickly, went over the specials of the evening. We asked about wines which she quickly checked with the bar for details of some choices. We chose a full-bodied red wine, Sixth Sense which did not disappoint. several of us ordered Romano crusted chicken. The chicken was very good. it came with linguini which was a little over done for me but no one else had a problem. Others had chicken piccata, very enjoyable. It was very noisy in the restaurant for being there so early, surprisingly considering the weather. Overall we enjoyed ourselves, our server and the ambiance of Capers and Lemons.

    Our first visit to Capers & Lemons--a lunch. Great food & super service. Only negative was the loud background noise. We started with the fried calamari -- terrific, lightly fried with tasty garnishes. Among the BEST we have sampled in many restaurants. Our housemade pastas were also fine. The Cannelloni was flavorful and meaty. The Gnocchi was perfectly done with an excellent sauce. All portion sizes were generous. Sharing the calamari starter between the two of us was ample. A valpolicella was a tasty accompaniment to both courses. We appreciated the attentive & quick service led by Felicia because we had to be at an appointment soon after lunch. We were glad to be seated early, ~ 11:45AM; business was booming on a Wednesday when we left @ 12:30.

    The food was very good. The service was attentive but not intrusive. The restaurant is quite nice, however, there was a large party and they were extremely loud. Our enjoyment was impacted by the loud party.
