Umm best pizza in Tampa Bay? Maybe! We couldn't decide so we got one NY style and one Chicago style. Both were perfectly sauced and the Cappy was piled with toppings! They even let us swap out for my non-mushroom eating friend. Service was extremely friendly, and our server even put to-go ranch cups in our pizza box. So thoughtful! Its a small space but they do have some outdoor tables as well. I will be back often!! read more

This place is a knock out every time. The staff is friendly, helpful, and welcoming (they literally go out of their way to accommodate everyone). The vibes are laid back and quintessentially St Pete. On top of that, the food is outstanding and consistent. They're using fresh ingredients and cooking to order. You might have to wait 40 minutes for a Chicago Deep Dish but it's worth every second. If I have to be nit picky, I wish they offered ricotta as a topping and the website hours vs operational hours on the weekend are confusing -- but neither of those teeny tiny things bother us. We're still here for birthday dinners, at least once a month when my mom visits, and after the kids' sporting events. Cappy's feels like home, come pull up a seat and join us! P.S. Meatball and Caramelized Onion Chicago Deep Dish is our favorite. Who else offers caramelized onions?????? read more

Three of us came on a Wednesday night, and it was chaos. We signed into the waitlist but probably waited 30 min for a table, and after we were initially sat, it took a bit to get service / for any food or drinks to arrive. It seemed like they were very overwhelmed, but it didn't seem quite busy enough to justify the chaos. I get it, stuff happens, but it was a bummer because we were all really hungry! The Greek salad was REALLY good. The pizza and the cheese bread were just okay. The vibe inside was cute and eclectic and homey, but I'm not sure I'd come back after the experience we had read more

First time trying Cappy's did not disappoint! My friends and I split two small New York-style pizzas: one pepperoni and pineapple, and one chicken and bacon with ranch drizzled on top. The place is fairly small and it was very busy on a Sunday evening. Instead of waiting for a table, we did a to-go order and it took about 15 minutes. Both pizzas were delicious! Between the 3 of us, each of us were able to have 2 slices per pizza. We were all having trouble deciding which we preferred since they're super different. Overall, we really loved them both! read more

The Chicago style deep dish, was incredibly authentic, and delicious. Similar to Giordano's the staff was super friendly, and the place has very cool vibes laid-back. When you go in and you're waiting for a table, you can help yourself to a beverage from the cooler. There is a nice outdoor patio seating area. The salads are also really good, served family style. read more

Great pizzeria tucked away in Historic Kenwood. Because it's so popular, there might be a bit of a wait if you plan to dine in, but it's worth it. The space is actually much bigger than it looks from the outside, with dining tables spread throughout different parts of the restaurant. The food is excellent, and you definitely shouldn't skip the Greek salad. It might be one of the best I've ever had. The big chunks of feta mixed with crisp greens make it incredibly satisfying. The pizza was just as good--it took serious restraint not to eat the entire pie in one go. I will be back Cappy's! read more

I'm pretty selective on my pizza and even at that I'd say I'm more than selective. It takes a lot for me to like pizza and I have to be really in a mood to want it. Let's just say, Cappy's has satisfied my need and I'll come back anytime I want pizza. I am a New York style pizza gal through and through so it's nice to order it somewhere that knows what they're doing. However, I do like that you can pick between Chicago and New York, as not everyone is like me. We ended up coming at 4 pm because their websites says they're open at 3:30 which is accurate, but for takeout only. However, they have open outdoor seating so we walked in and ordered and waited outside and ate outside. Overall the pizza was really good. The cheesy bread didn't have a ton of flavor but was good. I also had a glass bottle root beer and that hit the spot! read more

Im originally from Chicago and I was in chicago recently. I had Lou Malnatis and then when I got back I had cappys. Wanted to compare back to back. Cappys is better. Sauce is more flavorful. Cheese has more stretch. And most of all the crust. How i love this crust. I want to take a week vacation and work at cappys for a week just to learn how to make this crust. Its flakey, buttery, goodness. read more

If I am craving Chicago style deep dish, this is my go to spot. It has a very simple menu but all of it is done so well! Definitely the best Chicago pizza in this area. It is a great date spot as a salad and a medium pizza is plenty for two. Get the Greek salad!! They also serve beer and wine. The servers are friendly and prices are fair as well. It can get pretty busy on the weekends so prepare for a wait during peak hours. But it is worth the wait! read more

Cappy's has become my goto for pizza, downtown. I love their Chicago style crust, but they also have thin crust. The toppings are fresh, the sauce is really good and they aren't cheap with either of the two. They have a great selection of beverages as well. read more

I grew up until middle school in the Chicago area and hate the difficulty finding Chicago Style deep dish pizza elsewhere. I optimistically try every place I find that claims to have Chicago style pizza, and I tell myself that I enjoy it, but if I'm honest, every one of them would be considered bad if it were served in Chicago. Cappy's is the only exception I've found to that rule. Their Chicago style deep dish would be above average in Chicago. Even before I got my pizza, I knew it was going to be good when we got a cheesy bread appetizer. The dough on the crust was fresh and bursting with delicious flavor. The cheese was proper cheese, full of flavor with almost no greasiness. The service was great. Fast, friendly, comfortably casual but also professional. We had our twenty month old in tow, and it had been a long day for him, and they were great about making that as easy as possible on us. I also liked the vibe. Warm and casual, with wood tones and whatnot... Almost divey, but in the best sense of the word, where it was clean and properly put together but felt like a comfortable place to relax and have free flowing conversations. It's basically perfect for what I want in a place to get a casual meal with family or friends. read more

Awesome pizza with a great staff. Always busy with moderate wait times. Often loud inside.

Cappy's has THE best Chicago-style deep dish pizza around! Hands down. They stack it with so much goodness, even the crust is delicious. Their Greek salad is also fantastic! The quality is tops either in house or carry-out. read more

Overall 8.5 /10 Price to value 8.5/10 Deep dish 9.1/10 Service 8.2/10 Vibe 6.6/10 This place has been on my list for a while. It's pretty popular and I always noticed how busy it was driving by. I can now say I understand why. The pizza (specifically Chicago deep dish) is great. We got a large with sausage, caramelized onions and peppers and it had the perfect ratio of sauce toppings, crust and cheese. I'm adding this to my regular pizza list. You can't go wrong here. ESPECIALLY for the price. The toppings are 2.99 each on the large which is a little steep but for the taste and how filling it is I'm not upset. It was hard for me to tell if the sausage was there but I think they chop it very small so it cooks. I didn't try the New York style but I can't see it being better than the Chicago style We sat inside and it was a little snug and the wooden seats aren't the most comfortable. But the overall experience was very enjoyable. Definitely worth a visit! read more

My favorite pizzeria spot in St Pete. The Greek salad is to die for. Very family friendly and worth a visit for all of the food. Easily 10/10 read more

I owe this place a review from about 2 months back. We were so full, I fell asleep! Lol. Tried the deep dish and a regular pie for the first time. It was great. Tonight may be the night for a 2.0 Thanks and the staff was very nice took care of me when I was super tired (I work night shifts) and I remember now was standing at the register dumbfounded that everyone was so nice and the food was so great while I had 2 brain cells and was nervous about a first time despite how I look as a guy. Anxiety happens these days, you never know what you're gonna get. Thanks so much You can trust your grandma to eat here and be treated well! Younger staff doing their best and it shows. The food sings. Keep it that way please read more

We were a party of 6 and although busy, was able to accommodate us at an outside table. The service was phenomenal, the prices were extremely reasonable and the pizza, Greek salad and breadsticks were delicious! Thanks for providing the perfect location for a family get together!! read more

We ordered the NY style, so this review is on that pizza. They also have Chicago deep dish, which maybe better tasting. For us, the cheese and sauce was average, and the pizza was not cut all the way thru. Thankfully they gave us a steak knife to finish cutting the pizza (is this a thing?), which was needed. How much harder is it to cut all the way through a pizza. Regardless, the service is good- not exceptional and the best part is the outdoor patio. Great little family place, but there are better pizza places in town. We will most likely be back though as we really like the ambiance. read more

Being from Chicago I was a little skeptical but wow was I blown away. The pizza was incredible. So fresh and tasty. Breadsticks were next level! Next time I am in St. Pete I will be back. Highly recommend, deserves 10 stars! read more

Having lived in Chicago for many years, I'm always skeptical of so-called "Chicago Style Pizza." But Cappy's really measured up! In fact, it's one of the few places outside of Chicago that seems authentic. The New York Style pizza looked very good, as well. Service was friendly and accommodating. read more

Pizza was amazing! Staff was great! We will be back soon ! I highly recommend the deep dish pizza read more

Being from Chicago suburbs and craving deep dish pizza can be tough while living away from home. We came across Cappy's and decided to give it a go, and I'm sure glad we did. We sat outside, and started with the Greek salad. The dressing was light and refreshing, the lettuce was crisp, there was a good mix of onions, olives, tomatoes, peppers, and feta cheese. The portion size of the small salad is very generous. I was surprised how much we got for the price of it. I would definitely get this salad again. We also split a Chicago style deep dish pizza with garlic and spinach. It came out hot, smelling great, and was just what we were looking for. Our server Rob was on top of it. I will definitely come back to Cappy's! read more

I love their deep dish pizza. And the best Greek salad. Staffs are very friendly and my kids love their pizza too. read more

Love this place! Ordered the deep dish veggie pizza. They suggested getting it a little crispy and that was the best decision ever. The Greek salad is great, especially their own Greek dressing recipe! Love this place! read more

I came here with a friend on a busy Saturday night. We didn't have a reservation so we waited about 20 minutes for a table and chose to sit outside. The location itself is super cute including the outdoor area in the front. I'm lactose intolerant so I really appreciated the fact that they had several dairy free options available. I never thought I'd be able to go out and have a dairy free deep dish pizza but I was pleasantly surprised. The food as well as the sangria I had were both delicious. Would definitely return! read more

I picked up a large NY style cheese pizza extra crispy. Sauce is a little sweet which I loved. Guy at the register was friendly and the cooks were working like a machine! Great service. Great outdoor seating. Great pizza! read more

Really cute pizza place! Loved the atmosphere. Pizza was fantastic (cook was on point and big slices of pepperoni) Greek salad was loaded with toppings and really fresh ingredients! Only bummer was we walked in at 8:27 pm on Saturday and sign said last seating was at 8:30 pm because they close at 9:00 pm. They told us immediately when we walked in carry out only. We understood even though we were technically their before 8:30 pm and from out of town and not wanting to eat at hotel 20 min away. We asked for plastic cutlery for salad and they had none. Told us to hit up a fast food place for forks Would definitely go back at a time we could actually sit down! Really great food and quick service! read more

Incredible deep dish pizza--the crust was perfectly crispy and buttery. Also split the Greek salad with my friend, perfect pairing. It was my first time here and what really made the meal was the wonderful service. Even though it was nearing closing time, the service was great and employees were so fun to talk to. Can't wait to go back! read more

Craving pizza and had to check out this spot. There were 6 of us. The wait was about 30 minutes. We ordered two orders of the cheese bread to start and share. It was delicious and enough for the 6 of us. I ordered a small Chicago with sausage, black olives, and caramelized onions. It was fantastic! So much flavor and the perfect amount of toppings and cheese. I swapped out the red sauce for a garlic sauce. Amazing! Would definitely go back! read more

This place is great it's a cool old house with tons of charm I'm usually a ny pizza style guy but the veggie deep small veggie deep down and Greek salad is perfect for two people. Food is always constant and servers are friendly. They are in a wait a lot of the time but you can grab a beer from the fridge and wait. I recommend this place read more

As someone originally from Chicago, I know what good deep dish pizza is all about. That's probably why I waited so long to try Cappy's--I didn't want to set myself up for disappointment or end up missing my hometown pizza even more. But let me tell you, I was so wrong. Cappy's is the real deal. First, the tossed salad. For about $6.95, it was huge--definitely big enough to share--and the dressing was what really stood out. It was this amazing Italian vinaigrette: tangy, flavorful, and just a touch sweet. It brought everything together and made even the salad memorable. Now, the deep dish. Wow. The crust was buttery, perfectly crunchy, and had just the right amount of char to give it that amazing flavor and texture. I went with the Cappy's Special, and every topping was fresh, generous, and delicious. It was everything I didn't know I'd been missing here. I honestly regret not trying this place sooner, but I'll definitely make up for lost time now. I'm already planning my next visit read more

Finally, I was able to cross Cappy's Pizzeria off of my checklist and put it onto my, "must go back", list. I live near Cappy's and had been dying to try this. Of course, it's January, so I'm on a diet, but I figured, "oh well" and decided that after I worked out I'd walk over there because, you know- balance. I got there right when it was opening because I wanted to avoid any long wait. The staff was really friendly and helpful since I've not been there before. I ordered the Cappy which I originally wanted a NY style version but the guy I spoke to said because it wasn't busy the Chicago-style would only take about 25 minutes or so- I was expecting a good 45-minute wait, so I said yes to that and also got a Greek salad (small pizza, large salad). I think total with tip put me right around $30, but I knew I'd have multiple meals, so I wasn't mad about it at all. They offered me a drink while I waited and, in the time, given, my food was ready. I loved the salad. Absolutely loved it. The dressing was out of this world. Not that I didn't love the pizza, but the salad hit the spot. I really enjoyed the pizza as well. The dough was great, especially the crust. I was expecting a little thicker of an overall pizza, but the taste, including the sauce, were great. I want to try the NY version next to see which I enjoy more, but needless to say, I'll be back there soon. read more

Great food pretty quick considering how crowded they usually are! Would love if they did sales by the slice too but understand why they don't! read more

This is delicious deep dish pizza. The crust is surprisingly light, crispy, not heavy and doughy. I like getting meatball and carmelized onion. Lots of tomatoes in the sauce. Great cheese and just tons of flavor. Get the Greek salad while you wait. Excellent dressing, lots of feta with the requisite scoop of potato salad you get in this area. Very friendly staff serving and at the front end too. Come into this pizza House and you will leave happy! read more
