I usually don't expect much from a restaurant at a hotel, this restaurant being inside the Doubletree Hotel, but I was so pleasantly surprised with my experience. Grace greeted us with a smile and took us to our table. We were really tired after a long travel day and didn't feel like leaving the hotel to go and find dinner. As we hadn't really eaten much all day, we were starving, so the two of us shared a Cobb Salad with honey mustard, Shrimp Primavera, and Chicken Parmigiana. We were shocked at how big the portions were. Not only were the portions ginormous, but, each entree tasted really good. The Cobb Salad was fresh without any wilted greens. It was chock full of Romaine lettuce, hardboiled eggs, onions, tomatoes, olives, bacon bits, and perfectly grilled sliced chicken breast. The Chicken parm was perfectly cooked, chicken was nicely seasoned and breaded, and the sauce was perfect. The Shrimp Primavera was chock full of large shrimp, bell peppers, olives, onions, mushrooms, and yummy sauce. No complaints about any of the food. Everything was super tasty. Grace was awesome as our drink glasses never went dry, was very attentive with us, and was very efficient and friendly while taking care of us. This was such a nice experience. Not very often that I can rave about a hotel restaurant. read more

Pleasantly surprised. Nice and calm atmosphere with food that does not disappoint. Specials are indeed special. Lively stress free environment. Will return! read more

On business travel and this is attached to the hotel and thought I'd try it. Grace is the sweetest most wonderful woman bartender I highly recommend. I chose the minestrone soup, bruschetta and wine for 'girl dinner' and it did not disappoint! House Chardonnay for the dessert was delicious! Thank you! See you soon! read more

Caprese Restaurant - Bruschetta Caprese - Italian Near Me - Los Angeles, California

No, I won't be back. You sank my battleship... literally. Overall experience: 2 stars. Food: barely hanging onto 3 stars. Key Points: 1. Wednesday night dinner, 6:00 p.m. to 7:30. This place should have at least 10 tables hustling & bustling. Instead, we were the only two people inside the entire restaurant. 2. Food: they've had the same Chef for 20 years. Where are the regulars, the repeat customers? 3. They just did a remodel, but maybe they should have remodeled the chef too? The building looks depressing, and so was our experience. I think all they did was just slap some new paint on the walls. Battleship gray on the exterior. Seriously? Of all colors to pick, you couldn't have picked something that was bright and alive like a red, orange, something that made you feel warm and cozy? 4. Inside Atmosphere: sterile, white fake marble all around, with blue lights. Add some smoke and a couple cocktail waitresses, and you have a scene from a Hong Kong gambling casino in 1995. 5. Food: Griglia Scampi Siciliano: Presentation was horrible. 5 pieces, laid flat on a plate. If the shrimp was grilled, you couldn't tell because it was drowned in a loose cream sauce. I did like the Spritz of lemon. But can you cut back 90% of the sauce that was on the plate, and let me see the grill marks? Lasagna: a watery grave.. for the battleship? Layered pasta with ricotta, parmigiana and romano cheese. In the menu it described it as meat sauce, and then topped with marinara. What I got was a can of plain tomato sauce with a ton of dried oregano mixed in. There was no tanginess at all, no zip, no garlic, no onion, no punch. And leave the oregano out! Chicken & Shrimp Carbonara: This was the only dish that had taste. BUT, this is no Carbonara, AND too much sauce... again. Overcooked penne pasta in a parmigiana cream sauce, pancetta, bacon and roasted red peppers. Lots of protein in here, they Don't skimp on the chicken or shrimp. Woooo! Finally 1 dish I semi approve of. Pizza Capricciosa: Not fresh at all, terrible. 14"? Nah, it's more like a 12" of pre cooked "pizza," with mozzarella, ham, mushroom, artichoke & olives. It tasted floury. No semolina/cornmeal on the bottom. This is where they could have used some fresh oregano to make the sauce have some flavor. It felt and tasted like overcooked vegetables on top of a prepackaged dough that they just reheated. 5. Parking: dreamy, huge lot, plenty of open spaces... because No One Wants To Be Here? 6. Phone? Good luck getting ahold of anyone. The number goes straight to the hotel answering system. It's a maze of navigation to try to reach the restaurant, probably 10-20 minutes of hold time. Why don't they have a direct line? 7. Why are you closed for lunch? This place is surrounded by a sprawling business district, with tens of thousands of people wanting good food for lunch. Time to change things up!? 8. Notes to Management: Start Over! a. It's so gloomy inside, all the curtains are closed, there's no tables on the small patio outside. The restaurant is on the Topanga side of the hotel. One of the busiest streets in all of Los Angeles. People driving by don't even know that it exists. The sign for the restaurant Blends in with the Battleship Gray color of the whole hotel. CHANGE THE SIGN. Get some sparkly lights out there, and a BIG Bright sign in a catchy color. b. Your interior needs an entire makeover. I feel like I'm walking into a Tomb at the cemetery. Plants? Greenery? MUSIC? It would have been nice if there was some Italian music playing in the background, or some classy contemporary... anything. c. Your food is drowning in itself. Ease up on the sauce, please. A light coating is all you need. AND Teach your chefs about presentation. You could have skewered the shrimp, and then just done one Thin Line of sauce in a zigzag across the top, with maybe a spoonful of sauce on the side of the plate. Will I be back? Not anytime soon. Sorry. Maybe in 6 months I'll make a return and see if there has been some dramatic changes. But I refuse to pay another $100 plus for slop. read more

I've been coming here to grab a drink after work and honestly, I'm giving this place 5 stars only because of the service I receive from Grace, the bartender. She is very welcoming from the moment I walk in and is very attentive, refilling my drink and listening to my boring life story all night. Also, unlike the other bartenders that were here in the past, she actually knows how to make cocktails like a bartender should. Her professionalism and bright personality is probably what keeps this bar going with a lot of regulars. The food is good too. read more

The food was delicious! I had the Salmon Limon. Service was excellent however i was the only one in the restaurant I was surprised. I was passing by and decided to stop in. I'm thinking that most people believe that the restaurant is exclusive to the hotel guests but it's open to the public. The lounge area had people at the bar. Overall, I had a pleasant experience and it's a nice atmosphere. I do recommend it. read more

I guess I was expecting too much for a hotel restaurant . The $20 plate price is average. But the food wasn't impressive. You can see from the pictures, the pasta had a lot of sauce. They weren't very busy, so there probably isn't much turn over. Probably not made fresh. My wife didn't like the minestrone, she said it was too salty. Disappointed. read more

Met Louise the bartender and was such a sweetheart. Had some drinks and the place was nice. It's very low key which was a plus. We had a good time and though they closed early she made sure not to rush us and still enjoy ourselves. Thank you Louse for the experience. read more

The place was closed when I tried. It's upgrading to a Doubletree hilton, so I expect this place to become a high quality establishment

A secret gem hidden in the lobby of the Radisson Hotel. Which on this occasion was a ghost town due to COVID 19. Our tarbender Louise is a pip, great drink maker and cocktail shaker this side of Ventura Highway. We dined at the bar on the night of my arrival, chicken quesadilla and chicken tacos. Uh yum! Night #2 was a party of five for dinner. We were the lone soldiers in the dining area and the service and attention was stellar. The food- divine. Amazing portions, cooked to perfection and priced accordingly. Should you find yourself at the Radisson, a must. Ps. They have a breakfast buffet to die for - so I'm told. read more

Try the salmon! Hahaha. We decided to come by on New Years as we love trying new restaurants of all sorts. I did not come here out of the hopes to find true authentic fine dining, but rather to find just a fun little time warp. Mission accomplished. It felt like we were back in the 90's in the best way possible. The overall ambiance and the interior decor was all so fabulously 90's chic. Please don't ever change that charm. When it came time to order I asked our lovely waitress for recommendations. She just said try the salmon. I ordered the salmon and it was surprisingly very festive and yummy. My husband ordered some pasta dish that was ok it was very one dimensional. My critique is that their menu offers too many items which is a bad sign since they are completely disjointed. Malaysian dishes offered in a restaurant named Caprese.. yeah. If you want to have a fun, the office, themed dinner or lunch then this is your spot. I can totally see an episode of the office filmed here. So good. read more

Still amazing! Just visited after a few years & the food & service was great! Absolutely love this place & wish I could go more often!!!

Food was great, service was really good too. The ambiance is really nice and it was so surprising to walk into the restaurant and it was pretty empty. I highly suggest going here!! Food, service, setting, it's all great. Prices aren't bad either. The restaurant is just hidden. Highly recommend!! read more

I just moved to CA and my brother set me up to stay at the Raddison. I was busy with the move and didn't have any groceries, so I decided to just order room service. It was difficult to decide on what to eat because everything sounded so good! I wanted to order an appetizer since I'm the only one staying at the room. I finally decided to get sausage meatballs and peppers. I made the call and they said it'll be ready in about 15 minutes which is fast. Once the food arrived, I had to dig in because the smell was amazing! The sausage meatballs were hot and delicious. The juices were to die for if you use the hot and fresh rolls. The next time I ordered room service, I brought my relatives to eat at Caprese. I got the same sausage meatballs (they're addicting lol)while the other ordered salmon. I took a bite of the salmon and it was equally delicious. The fish was perfectly cooked to where it just crumbled with perfect moisture. I might just order it again for myself next time. I like Caprese because of its great food and it's usually never busy. If I ever have to stay at a hotel, I'd definitely use Radisson with their room service. read more

Caprese Restaurant - Italian Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Hi there, order the bruschetta...you're welcome. The food is a little heavy and large, but very comforting and savory. The place is huge with its own bar and restaurant. Caprese has nice ambiance, friendly staff and excellent service. However, I would love to see more vegetarian and dessert items on the menu! I would definitely come back for a relaxing drink and appetizer. read more

I ordered the pasta arrabbiata for delivery. It was late-however I'm not sure that the restaurants fault. The food on the other hand was completely inedible. On the mild side- the pasta was extremely over cooked, almost soggy. I thought I'd at least eat the bread and dip it in the sauce- but the rolls were cold and hard and the sauce was so salty it could not be eaten. First and last time here. read more

Isn't it great when servers not only remember you, but remember what you order? Makes me feel like I'm at Cheers! I love this place because it's so well hidden. You can come for lunch or dinner and know that you'll get great service and excellent food in an intimate setting. They have amazing salads - Cobb, Greek, Shrimp, Salmon, etc. And give you hot Ciabatta bread when you sit down. Mmmmm They have cushy booth seating and great lighting. It makes you feel as though you're someplace terribly expensive and exclusive. Love the atmosphere, service and food here! If you're in the Valley check it out :-) read more

Italian??? with Mongolian stir fry, egg rolls? well last minute decided to go on Valentines day, Service very slow and the place was not busy. Caesar Salad flooding in oil and really needed lemon or something to have any flavor. my wife's pasts was mush, but made that worse is that it looked like the threw a can of stewed tomatoes on top with handfuls of cheese. i ordered the Carbonara well all i can say as some one that used to cook Italian food for a living this was not Carbonara. not really sure what it was, but raw bacon and no real flavor. listen everyone has there own opinion. if you want to try this place maybe it was an off night maybe not. the manager argued with me that they "have never had a complaint" if that was really the case why was it empty on valentines day? read more

Just got into town with some friends and we decided to get some Italian food. It's inside of the Radison Inn, but even for a Friday night it was very empty inside. The decor was very intimate. We were immediately served with a basket of bread. I didn't have any, however, my friends said it was AH-Mazing! My dish was the Salmon a La Limon which was quite delicious! Salmon was cooked perfectly drizzled with an avocado scampi sauce. Along with some veggies and potatoes. Good size portions. Staff was friendly and mainly attentive. I would come back again and see what else the menu has to offer read more

Such a great sit down table service secret. OOOooops, maybe no longer. Great great tasting big portions of chef's fresh foods. Best hot table bread in the valley! The waiters are wonderful. Only lacking a choice of finer wines. Enjoy read more

So accommodating for my allergies.. good size portion, wonderful and hospitable cooks, servers, everyone. Very spacious. Good date night get away.. we will be back! read more

I came to Caprese for a family meal with relatives coming in from out of town. The restaurant was newly remodeled and I hadn't heard anything about it before hand, so I wasn't sure what to expect. First of all, the decor is BEAUTIFUL. It's modern and clean and I felt happy the moment I stepped in. The servers were also helpful, friendly, and attentive. As for the food, I was delighted by how delicious my meal was. The waitress recommended a seared tuna salad with a mountain of avocado, and it was easily the best seared tuna I'd had in ages: rare except for a crispy crust, perfectly paired with the creamy avocado. Everything my family got was also delicious. In short, I would definitely go back again and again! read more

I am staying in the Radisson with my family and we decided to come here for lunch. The service was really great, Luis was our waiter. He kept a our water glasses filled and was attentive; we were one of two tables in the restaurant. Restaurant: the restaurant was really nice. There are a lot of different food options to choose from. There are a few little tables outside, but it's right next to a pretty busy street so could be loud. There are two rooms, one is a bar area (wasn't open when I went to a noon lunch) and the other is the lunch room. Food: I ordered the chicken pesto sandwich. I really love pesto, but when I got the sandwich I was not really pleased. It came with chicken, cheese, peppers, lettus, and mayo, but I did not really taste any pesto. The French fries were good, but it's really difficult to mess up fries. Others at my table got a hamburger (said it was overcooked), Asian chicken salad (said it was mediocre), and a turkey club (nothing special, but a lot of food). The downside: the food was not very good, we were expecting a lot better. Additionally, one person asked for onion rings buy got french fries and he told the waiter, but the waiter didn't believe him at first but then just decided to check for extras in the back. Lastly, we had a 10% off coupon which we had on the front of the table within eye sight of the waiter the entire time and the waiter didn't even notice it until we physically told him to. read more

Not a good experience at all. I was staying at the Radisson for business. The place was so empty at dinner, I had to ask the front desk to call the restaurant so somebody would seat me. I ordered the crab and shrimp tortelli, The sauce was good but the crab was tough and chewy. The shrimp was good, but the tails were left on, so I had to wade through the sauce to pull them off. I ordered tiramisu dessert to go and when I got back to the room, I discovered it was completely frozen. The next morning I went to the restaurant for breakfast. The hotel had a breakfast room service menu but I didn't want to spend the extra money so I went to the restaurant for breakfast. I ordered oatmeal and sausage, and was appalled to receive instant oatmeal from the breakfast buffet. The waiter told me the only breakfast they serve is the $15 buffet, which wasn't very good. Even when hotels give patrons free breakfast, it usually includes cooked oatmeal. I wasn't going to pay $15 for instant oatmeal so I left. I complained to the hotel desk clerk, and he was surprised. He did not know they were not serving ala carte breakfast items. read more

Hotel restaurants are so posh. Caprese is located in the Radisson Hotel. The interior is very modern, creating a trendy ambiance. It's a fairly large restaurant which is ideal for big groups. Their service is great too. The waitresses and waiters are all really sweet and accommodating. The food is delish. They have a variety of cuisines on their extensive menu. I've tried everything! Their seafood dishes are probably the best, especially the salmon, seared ahi tuna, and seafood pasta. This is def a Chatsworth neighborhood gem! read more

We arrived on Friday night a couple of minutes before opening time and were told they weren't ready for customers. So we had to wait in the bar for 10-15 minutes or so, very unusual for a restaurant to not open on time. No big deal but strange. Once we were seated, we were the only people in the restaurant the entire time, which also felt somewhat awkward. Nice atmosphere and service and prices were good but food just ok. Not a terrible experience but not sure if I could recommend it. Maybe if you were staying close by? read more

Don't bother coming in here for breakfast, instead walk down to the corner and go to Country Deli. Caprese serves coffee in these tiny dollhouse sized cups, and slow to refill. Not because they are busy - I was the only person in the restaurant. Two tv's blaring. Not a way to wake up. read more

This is practically a hidden restaurant in Chatsworth. I drive by almost every weekday and I never noticed it until a few days ago, so I decided to go on a Friday. My wife and I had an early dinner on Friday around 5:50pm, so it was pretty empty with only another table of four eating. The restaurant is right behind the bar (FYI, I was told happy hour is from 5:30pm to 7:00pm.) The server was very friendly and recommended the Stuffed Chicken Marsala ($17), which was very delicious and a great portion size. The happy hour house margaritas were decent for the price at $5. The Spaghetti Bolognese ($15) was good, but nothing to be praised about. The clear winner of the night was the stuffed chicken dish. Ultimately, my wife and I will be returning soon. read more

This hotel bar and restaurant may become our new "local". You don't need to be a guest in the hotel to enjoy Caprese. Beatrice the bartender is friendly, attentive and generous with the pour. We've recently enjoyed drinks and dinner on two separate occasions. Delicious yet moderately priced drinks and food, very nice decor and great service. Highly recommended. read more

A hidden gem! It was my last day of work after 5 years and my office wanted to throw me a goodbye party so we ordered take out over the phone. The gentleman who answered was very nice and even called to let us know it was ready for pick up. The inside was beautiful and quiet, i could see myself doing private events here. Food was very inexpensive for a huge serving. I ordered a couple pastas and it's just like Olive Garden but better! Plenty of parking. Will definitely be coming back! read more

The food was fair but nothing special. The staff was extremely nice and very prompt with our food. We ordered fried calamari, chicken alfredo, filet mignon, and spaghetti with meatballs. The calamari was crispy and it came with two dipping sauces. The alfredo sauce was very thick and the chicken was chewy. The filet was a little over cooked but it was still very soft. The spaghetti was ordinary. Overall, the best part of the meal was the calamari. read more

This is a little known, hidden gem. We highly recommend you try it once and guarantee you will try it again. There were 10 of us for dinner on Saturday May 12th. Our lovely server took our order right away, it was served within a reasonable time and all 10 meals came out at the same time ~ hot and delicious. From our server to the cook and bus boy - it was a great experience, especially for that many people on a Saturday night. read more

Late check in at the Radisson in Chatsworth. Went down to the bar for dinner not expecting much but was hungry and didn't want to go out. To my surprise the food and the service by Susan was awesome! Had the New York steak with all the fixings and it didn't disappoint. The Mondavi Red Wine was also excellent. Looking forward to my next stay in the area. read more

I love this place! First of all the bartender Beatrice makes a delicious "any kind of cocktail you may want" How about a watermelon, basil martini! The food is delicious. It is quiet, and I think a bit of a secret place at the Radisson Hotel in Chatsworth. Love to keep it a secret but feel compelled to share! It is casual, fun, and I highly recommend giving it a try! read more

I usually dont go to hotel restaurants, but Caprese is completely different. After it's been newly renovated and the menu's been changed, not only is the food delicious, but also the renovations are beautiful. I loved our experience and everytime I go, I like to try a different pasta. I highly recommend the tiramisu, which I get everytime I go. Anyone can go to this restaurant, even if they aren't staying at the hotel. I love this restaurant and I will definitely be going again in the future. read more

First of all, this place is part of a hotel (I think mostly for business conferences and such as there are many conference rooms and meeting rooms). I ordered Salmon Ala Limon. There are many other lovely selections on the list as well! I went with a huge group of people and the restaurant seemed pretty empty despite having such nice and kind servers and workers. The ambiance was calm and very relaxing. When my salmon came, it was heaped with fried onions and a portion of mashed potatoes as well. Upon trying the salmon, my taste buds had reached heaven. It was absolutely delicious! The lemony taste added with the onions and mashed potatoes were absolutely perfect together. The dish complemented itself. I can't believe such a find has been neglected as the restaurant was almost entirely empty aside from a kind elderly couple on the side. We took a tour of the hotel, looking into the rooms and such as well and the rooms were well furnished (like new) and radiated of warmth and cleanliness. I think this restaurant is a perfect place to go to for a meal locally. read more

I don't usually frequent hotel restaurants, even when I stay there, but my fellow Yelpers gave CAPRESE such high ratings. Becky and I started out with a shrimp scampi appetizer served with garlic bread. Large, tender shrimp with a wonderful garlic-lemon butter sauce. YUMMY! Becky ordered shrimp/scallop Alfredo, and I the Chicken Rigate with penne pasta, sun dried tomato, & roasted shallots. Both dishes were generous, and delicious. Our server Beatrice pulled double-duty as waitress and bartender. This lady deserves a raise, Radisson! She did a wonderful job of attending to not only our needs, but also 4 other tables in the dining room, in addition to the bar patrons. She is a wizard with a bright smile and positive attitude. read more

Pleasantly surprised. Driven by since it was the Hot Tomato. Last night decided to go in. All of us were very pleased. It was mostly business types and there we were with my 1 year old... though it was pretty empty. Food was good. We were all surprised for some reason, in a good way. The manager was very friendly. Only thing to improve would be the attentiveness of the waiter. When you have a kid you need things a little quicker. If you're in the area is recommend checking if out. read more
