    Best lunch downtown!

    My co-worker and I eat there and/or take out from there at least once or twice a week. Their daily soup and salad special is a great bargain. The ingredients used are very fresh, and the food is prepared to order. I almost always get their homemade mozzerella cheese thrown on top of my salad, and their roasted beets are amazing. Their pasta specials are also wonderful. Try their eggplant balls and eggplant rollatini. Very friendly staff!

    Great things come in Small Packages

    This hole in the wall on Church St serves up some of the most authentic and homemade italian pasta dishes I have had in a while. You really can't go wrong. Where italian places all over the city overprice their dishes, Cafe Capri serves up large portions, even at lunch and for less than $13 for dinner (same dish is $9 at lunch). It is a really small place, but you get great attention and the food is great. Don't go there on a date because you will be too busy enjoying your food to have a conversation. I will definitely be back and will eat everything on the menu.

    Delicious pasta, very small

    Good food, very small space, only a few tables. Had veal ravioli and wine. Friend had chewy al dente pasta and wine. Artichoke soup not so tasty - tastes like muddy water. Small portions. Bread came without butter or oil. Long wait to prepare. Would go back. Cash only!

    A Gem

    Went here for my girlfriends birthday dinner based on the recommendations here. We were not disappointed, Capri Cafe might be small and casual looking but their food is excellent and their staff is a pleasure to deal with. High points for us were the excellent quality ingredients (Mozzerella, Tomatos, greens) used in all our dishes and a very good Sicillian wine we decided on. Low points: We had the misfortune of coming just after a very large party and had very little room to eat. The staff was kind enough to set us up an additional table but we were stuck with rather uncomfortable folding chairs. Not really the Cafe's fault, but something to keep in mind. It gets very crowded at times. Our first server (not the co owner) could offer very little information on the wines available. We ended up choosing blindly and while we liked the wine and were not upset at the cost (~$40) we could easily have been less fortunate. Overall I would highly recommend this establishment. The food was some of the best I have had with great flavors and excellent ingredients. The location is cute and charming and the staff a pleasure to deal with.

    My favorite little place

    I just love this restaurant so much I go weekly. I have tried almost everything on the menu, which is great, but I am addicted to their veal ravioli. Their tomato sauce is simple but they make it so perfectly it is a work of art. Not only is their menu great and their prices extremely affordable but the daily specials are amazing. I recommend you try the white chocolate mousse with strawberry sauce. It is so refreshing and tasty it is the best after dinner taste you could ask for. The only warning I have is that it is not the speediest service. Thus, go with some time and not in a rush. But if you are in a rush you can just call in and do take out! You will not regret trying this place, it is a jewel.

    great place

    the food here is totally authentic. absolutely delicious. only complaint is that it is a small space, so i've often had to wait and delivery can take a long time. food is definetly worth these minor inconveniences.

    Mmmmmm

    Cute little restaurant, definitely a great addition to the neighborhood. They've done a lot with the space and it feels homey inside. The food was very flavorful and much better than expected.
