We headed over for dinner on a Friday night and we made a reservation a day or two before for 6:30 pm as it does get pretty busy. They had a mix of indoor and outdoor seating with very vibrant blue and yellow decor throughout the restaurant and in the plating as well. Our server was very helpful and made small talk with us throughout ordering and checking in. Lavender Arnold Palmer and Cucumber Mojito - Started out with two drinks. Both were very refreshing and light which helped cut through the heavier dishes we were eating. Calamari Alla Griglia - I love grilled calamari but this portion wasn't too big. It was soft and had a nice chewy texture. It had a strong peppery, grilled taste and leaned more on the sour side even without the lemon added. Linguine Diavolo - This was spicier than I expected but the tomato sauce had depth and flavor. It was piping hot and the pasta had a great texture. I do wish they had more shrimp in the dish as the ratio was a bit off. My sister ordered the lamb rack which came with creamy mashed potatoes and a nice pesto sauce. A great place for a fancier meal and take a walk to the waterfront with some pretty views. read more

FYI: We came here for New Year's Eve so it was a set menu but please believe I most likely will not be returning even for a normal menu because nothing about this place was really normal PROS: The food tasted okay. The hostesses were also very friendly so shout out to them and how they were handling a very crappy situation (the owners had overbooked the restaurant and the reservations were extremely backed up) CONS: Where do I even start...for starters, we had to wait AN HOUR to get seated for our RESERVATION which is insane on its own. The front bar area was jam packed with parties who were waiting to be seated, you could barely move around. They seated us after we approached them about the wait time several times but tried to give our table away to another party (who looked to be family or friends) by literally offering me $100 if we could wait a few more minutes for a "nicer table". The service in between courses was so inconsistent that you couldn't even tell that they were pressed for open tables. Our appetizers and drinks came out at lightening speed but we had to wait about 30-40 minutes for our second course. The music was so incredibly loud that I couldn't even hear the people sitting right next to me and even after our party asked to turn the volume down a bit TWICE, I could've sworn the volume got louder. Like yes, I know it was NYE but there's a difference between restaurant volume background music and club volume. This ain't a club, the music doesn't have to be deafening. But lo and behold the universe loves proving me wrong, and I kid you not, the area right next to us suddenly turned into a glorified dance floor. I'm going to remind you that I was supposedly at a restaurant, but here I was feeling like I just crashed a wedding looking at this group of people, one of them being a hostess, dancing and waving napkins above their heads 2 feet away from where my family was trying to have a nice meal together. I cannot make this up, I literally watched some middle aged man GET UP ON HIS CHAIR AND START DANCING. I get being a family owned restaurant (if that's what this is) but having your entire family of 15+ people parading around, dancing, and blowing on noise makers while other people are trying to eat is taking it to a level that's flat out rude. This whole restaurant felt like they opened it specifically for their family to come eat at and all other customers who weren't related to them or are family friends with them are excluded from some big inside joke. Our party got so annoyed that we decided to skip the dessert course and the complimentary champagne, paid the bill right after our main course, and left. read more

Love me some Capri! Stopped in with a resy for date night on a Saturday. Immediately the hosts and staff were accommodating and friendly. The ambiance is super romantic, cozy, Almafi coast vibes. Crazy that they offer outside seating in this weather but hey. We ordered the chicken parm and shrimp linguine which was amazing. I didnt even think something so simple like chicken parm could be elevated but it was really good. They do have a full bar if you're not interested in their cocktail list. The tender made a lit old fashioned which was pleasantly surprising. Lastly, we had their creme brulee for dessert. Chef's kiss!!! Capri definitely is a 10 outta 10 would recommend for me! read more

We dined here when visiting Philly. Very friendly service and great ambiance! I had the salmon Capri and my husband tried the gnocchi. The salmon capri was delicious and the sauce on it was amazing with the garlic sautéed spinach hitting the perfect balance! My husband loved the gnocchi. Highly recommend! read more

Beautiful place! Our friends live one block away so we walked to our Saturday night reservation. Parking in this area is extremely challenging. It's residential and these people never seem to move their cars! We were warmly greeted and seated at a cozy table for 4. This restaurant is aesthetically pleasing and I loved the loungey music. Nice warm bread for the table. Thank you! Our appetizers and entrees included the Caesar Salad, Bacon Wrapped Scallops, Lobster Ravioli, Chicken Parm, Gnocchi with gorgonzola, and the pasta special (Squid Ink with seafood). Everything was delicious but the gnocchi stole the show. Amazing! Nary a leftover to be had. Bea was our server and she was fantastic! She was kind, warm, and made great recommendations. She checked in regularly and ensured we were having a nice time. We sure were! We enjoyed a post-dinner cocktail by the bar. They were able to make me a decaf Espresso Martini which was so much appreciated! We truly can't wait to return! read more

Vibes: casual, Instagrammable trattoria; bring a friend or a few Tasting notes: - Mascarpone salad: very light dressing; kale was fresh and in manageable pieces; mascarpone swipes and berries added a just right amount of sweetness; somewhat smaller portion than expected - Bone Marrow Linguine: Al dente, lightly sauced pasta; bone marrow was creamy and easily picked up by the noodles - Tiramisu: fluffy, no liquor but chocolate-y enough; good balance of cream and cake; shareable between two Other thoughts: - Had to wait about 20 minutes to be seated after time of reservation - Appreciate the bread (sliced baguette) and butter service that came quickly upon sitting down - Dishes came out at a good pace Impression: a solid Italian spot; would consider coming by again if in the area! read more

3.5 - Lovely ambiance, amazing service but meh meals. The outdoor garden decor is very cute, great view and very instagrammable -- added bonus of occasional dog pooping view . Service was very lovely. Everyone were kind and attentive. Nothing I can fault. Food wise. It's honestly forgettable and for the price it's disappointing. The good was the appetizer which was the burrata and the stuffed pepper special. The penne vodka didn't have too much flavor and chicken parm is so forgettable that I honestly don't remember how it tastes. The gnocchi was probably the worst, overcooked that it was mushed -- we probably left most of that plate untouched. Drink and tiramisu was ok. Tbh, I'm not certain that I would be back. read more

Amanda was wonderful! Beautiful setting. Great food! Perfect for a special birthday. If the weather is agreeable eat outside.

Very very upset. Came 15 min early for our reservation and was told there's no tables to seat us outside nor any coming available for 2. We had reserved an outside table. Best they could do was inside. There were empty tables outside and could have seated us and instead was told that was reserved for other people. That's not how you treat someone who has dined here before and made a reservation for outdoors. Very least you could say well comp you a drink since we can't honor your request but that wasn't even presented as an option so we left. read more

The service was so so terrible. Had a 7:30 reservation- wasn't seated until 7:45. that's fine got a drink at the bar! when we were finally seated, we weren't given the full menu- it took 15 min for our waiter to come by and we asked for the rest of the menus. host came back 15 minutes after that with the menus. the waiter came at 8:30 to get our initial order. we ended up leaving without ordering... was really disappointed. they're obviously understaffed and unorganized. read more

Okay, new restaurant who this ?! Well I needed to check out this spot and although we can all use some warmth in our lives during this brutal cold Philly cold, Capri's debut has fallen short for me. Here is why. The place itself is Gorgeous! The vibes are immaculately and even the cutlery high class. Menu is modern Italian with specials. The service however leaves a lot of lacking. Don't get me wrong the bus boys are amazing , but the servers who put in orders are lost and unfortunately not as attentive. I mean to wait 15 mins to put in an order for drinks is kind of a stretch. And then the appetizer arrives before the drinks. Any way from the food the risotto with shrimp was phenomenal, so was the chocolates hazelnut cake. All in all I will be back but I hope service does a better job. I mean our person couldn't remember the specials and made uninformed suggestions. read more

Their neighboring sister restaurant casa nostra has great good so I imagine it's just as good. read more

From start to finish this place was amazing! Great service, beautiful ambiance, and the food was incredible! Bread started on the table (which is a big thing in Philly!

My girlfriend was ecstatic that Capri had just opened, as she had been showing me tiktoks of it all week. We came for a pre-dinner drink to see if it passed the vibe check, and boy did it. We got a seat at two of the yellow bar stools and immediately ordered drinks. They had just got their liquor license only a few days before, so they were still working out all the kinks but we started chopping it up with the bartenders. I learned why they made their Negroni with Italicus instead of Campari and why there is a curry leaf at the bottom of it. Great people in here, and even better attention to detail. It was hella early, so was just us and 2 Albanian dudes at the bar who were cranking away at their laptops while sipping some martinis. One of them got a pasta dish that looked delectable. He 100% saw me breaking my neck and eyeing it up, as he came over and said it was a house special and put 1/4 of it on a plate for my gf and I to split. Next level hospitality, literally taking food off their plate and giving it to us... and those seared scallops were to die for. Turns out they are 2 of 6 Albanian cousins who own/operate this place, inspirational really. Family business. We were having such a blast and the vibes were so up that we ordered the caesar salad and a dozen oysters, both of which slapped... but the real MVP was this bread. It was warm and fresh, and came with a thyme butter that I would have just eaten by the scoop if I wasn't so civilized. There are levels to the bread & butter game, and Capri's is at the top. We ended up probably eating a pound of it as it was so damn fresh. Capri is the perfect intersection of being a trendy/instagramable place while also serving up bomb food and ode drinks. We will be back for dinner soon, believe that!! IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov_reviews read more

This place was hit or miss - my branzino was good but my husbands veal parm was disgusting. The service was also just ok. I feel like they try to project good service but were only checking to dos off a list without really caring. For example our server hovered and came by multiple times to check how ourfood was, but right after each dish had just been served. A huge pet peeve of mine as I can't tell you anything if you don't give me a chance to eat it. I also told her about how tough the veal parm was at the end and that entire table shook when trying to cut into it and she barely acknowledged. Lastly other servers kept coming by or to take our plates before we were even done our food, another pet peeve of mine. So all in all nice location, restaurant ambiance and seating is very nice, but actual food quality and service was not impressive. read more

This is a newer restaurant in Philly. My wife and I went here for our anniversary. The food was fantastic. The portions were just right and the flavor was fantastic. We had the fried calamari to start. It was crispy on the outside, and the calamari was cooked to tender perfection. The squid ink pastas was a special and it had grilled calamari, scallops and shrimp. My wife had the risotto, which was equally satisfying. She was able to add a protein and loved it. The service was right on time every time. The staff were polite and it seems like a family owned restaurant which means you get family owned attention to detail. The atmosphere is coastal, with light colors, wall art and wicker light fixtures, black and gold. It was a fun, modern atmosphere that we appreciated. All in all, it was a fantastic restaurant experience all around. If you haven't, give it a try! read more

Went for New Year's Eve dinner.. not sure who called us a few days earlier for the $50 deposit for nye but she said "unlimited champagne.. we will keep filling up your glass.. you'll be given champagne when you enter.." no. This was the wrong information. We got there and they quickly told us we "misunderstood." There is one glass with dessert and that is it. No apology.. just a lot of attitude for even thinking that was true. Then the waiter accidentally poured the 1 complimentary champagne glass on my head as he was bringing it. Food was good, but seriously wtf. read more

As someone who works in the restaurant industry myself, it really upsets me to have to write this. I came here with my friend to celebrate her birthday, and we were hoping for a good experience but what we got was the complete opposite. The food was average, which we honestly didn't mind. What was truly upsetting was the service. The restaurant was nearly empty, yet we somehow received some of the worst service I've ever experienced. Our server, Beatrice, never once checked in on us not to ask how the food was, not to see if we needed anything. She completely ignored us until it was time to drop the check, which she auto gratted at 20% without any explanation. To make matters worse, we noticed that other tables around us were being given birthday candles or desserts, and we didn't receive anything, even though we clearly mentioned it was a birthday celebration in the reservation. We asked to speak to a manager, and they told us there wasn't one available. Like, what kind of restaurant doesn't have a manager on duty? We were seriously confused. Then the server, visibly upset, grabbed the check and stormed off to remove the auto grat still no apology, no explanation, nothing. The entire time, all we were hoping for was a simple, Hey, I'm so sorry, we're short-staffed today or just some acknowledgment and accountability. Instead, we were left feeling ignored and disrespected. Honestly, it was really disappointing. Mind you, there was probably 1 large group in the whole restaurant and 5 small table. AND she had helpers lol. Anyways, I just find it funny she just didn't give a shit about our concern. I hope she fixes her attitude or just let your manager know (if they are on duty lol) to staff more people. read more

Very solid restaurant from food, service and space. Penne Vodka was my favorite bite.

Went yesterday for brunch. This is a pretty restaurant however the food and the service are definitely not worth the cost. The food was extremely bland. Then it took 10 minutes to track down a server just for salt. The Bloody Mary was terrible, after I had to remind the server twice that I had ordered one. $120 for subpar, basic breakfast food, one bloody and one mimosa. Won't return. read more

We had a nice group luncheon on the second floor of the restaurant. It's a residential neighborhood, but we didn't have any issues with Parking. We started our event with a nice mimosa toast The restaurant offered a fixed menu with delicious appetizers, including mussels, fried Burrata and an antipasto plate followed by a choice of two different salads, and then several different entrées. I had a Capri salad followed by the salmon dish. Portions were just right and the meal was excellent. to top it off, we had a dessert selection which included cannolis , cheesecake and other pastries. The service was excellent. The waiter and waitress assigned to our private upstairs room were very attentive to making sure our meal was perfect. The building is very beautiful inside and historically significant. It was a big challenge for an older guest to make it up the several stairs, but definitely worth it. read more

We were visiting as a last stop before our flight and the ambiance of this restaurant blew our minds. The waitress was so knowledgeable and her recommendations were delicious. These are some of the best espresso martinis I ever had. You HAVE to try a dozen of the fresh oysters and please order hot sauce on the side bc if y'all haven't y'all are missing out! Highly recommend. read more

I finally made it over to Capri with a friend. The place itself is absolutely gorgeous! The staff was also incredible and friendly. We sat and ate at the bar and got to chat quite a bit with the bartenders who again, were soooo nice and fun. We ordered a couple entrees and split them. The gnocchi with the Gorgonzola and the bolognese were both tasty and came in generous portions. I'll definitely be back. **They're also one of the few places in the area that are open on Mondays, fyi.** read more

Was so excited to try this new restaurant! Unfortunately very disappointed all around. We had a 730 reservation, and were not seated until after 8, with no apology or explanation. We quickly ordered drinks and an appetizer. The appetizer came many minutes before the drinks, and far too quickly for it to be fresh. The octopus was fishy and chewy. The lavender mocktail was way too sweet. The tomato martini was not good, but they replaced for a regular martini. Entree time. It came out within 5 minutes. No way it was fresh. It was lacking in flavor, warmth, and was bland. We had the gnocchi, chicken parm and penne a la vodka. Blah. For dessert, we had the "gelato". It was 100 percent breyers ice cream. When we asked where it was sourced, we got different answers every time. The staff was lacking knowledge and overall unapologetic. Would not recommend. read more

Overpriced, Underwhelming, and Nearly Empty I cannot for the life of me understand the glowing reviews for this place. Either they were written by the owner's extended family or people have truly lost their sense of taste. The food? Mediocre at best. The prices? Insane. And shockingly, none of this was surprising because the restaurant was practically empty. If you're in the market for overpriced, uninspired Italian food served in a ghost town of a dining room, congratulations--you've found your spot! The pasta was forgettable, the sauce tasted like it came from a jar, and the salads made me wonder if they were rationing ingredients. The one bright spot? Our server Bea. She was an absolute sweetheart--attentive, kind, and just delightful. Which, ironically, made the meal even worse because it felt like a crime to complain to someone so lovely. She deserves better than this place. Honestly, we all do. If you enjoy throwing money away on lackluster food, I highly recommend it. Otherwise, save yourself the disappointment. read more

Amanda was amazing tonight. She made our Valentine's Day very special. Thank you for the great service & hospitality!!

OK, so first I want to say the customer service was impeccable. The ambience in there is beautiful. I will definitely be going back. So my parents got the lamb and they did not really like it because the mashed potatoes came out cold. We also originally got the calamari that was grilled in. It tasted uncooked. It was not good so we ended up getting the fried calamari, but it was not seasoned. The pasta dishes were pretty good. The fish was pretty good as well and the crème brûlée was OK. I will definitely give them another try I will say their food was about three stars in the overall experience was five stars so that's why I have to give them a four star rating. read more

We really enjoyed our meal here! Very happy with all of our selections: Pasta Bolognese, Lobster Ravioli, and Gnocci with rose sauce. We also got the calamari as an appetizer. We loved the look of the restaurant as well, it didn't feel like we were in Philadelphia! Will definitely be going back. read more

Overpriced and outdated menu with underwhelming taste and poor service. This place looks pretty, but there's a reason it's empty most days. Real shame, especially after the two previous exceptional restaurants in this spot. They also run Casa Nostra a few doors down with the same menu. Also empty most of the time. read more

Food was not bad but service was terrible. My friends and I came for a birthday celebration which we wrote in our reservation. We saw 4 other birthdays with candles and my friends didn't get any when we ordered dessert. Then we were hit with a 20% auto gratuity for a party of 5 which I don't think they deserve since they didn't check up on us. We talked to our waitress Beatrice about how we felt and she only defended herself saying we didn't tell her about the birthday and it's their restaurant policy for the 20% gratuity. We were left speechless for no apology and she just stormed off to take the grad off. I hope everyone read all the reviews and reconsider coming here. read more

Good drinks and food. Ambiance was nice. We came in around 4pm and we were one of the first ones and service was great! The desserts were really good. Tiramisu was homemade and gelato chocolate ice cream was great as well. The salmon I got was flavorful and cooked perfectly. Only thing my husband's gnocchi portion was small and had only 3 shrimps. His Negroni drink was very unique. I definitely will go back and would love to try the brunch menu. read more

Okay so let's just say the ambiance is good. The food not so much. This was my second time giving Capri a try and I won't be back. I ordered the lobster ravioli with scallops and spinach. Price tag was $36 for 6 medium size ravioli and 6 scallops. The meal wasn't hot and a tad salty. My mom ordered the veal parmigiana and she said it was cardboard. No veal. The amount of pasta was small definitely not worth $30. I came on a Tuesday it wasn't busy and the service was pretty good but that will be my last with no chance of returning read more

Pretty place, loved their decor colors. We had a reservation that was made online with their website and they did not have it. No biggie on a Saturday night, they prepared a table for us in less than 30 minutes. I only mention it because you may be better off calling for a reservation. We ordered 2 apps, calamari and burrata, and they sent over complimentary mussels. Very nice touch! The mussels were delish! All apps were very good. Someone in our party ordered a drink the bartender was not familiar with and the person who ordered said it's fine, no worries. Well they were sure going to figure out how to make it! And they did! In fact they were super pleasant about it and a little entertained! They couldn't have been nicer. They really made our night fun! Dinner was enjoyed by everyone. The branzino was especially excellent. We would return. Truly a pleasant experience. read more
