Thoroughly enjoyed the special today-,lobster ravioli accompanied by scallops, shrimp & crabmeat. I had it with their vodka sauce. Karen our server was very attentive. Definitely worth going to this Capri restaurant! Plus their wine pours are generous.

Venerable old-school family-run place with Mom buzzing around to keep things right. Always busy; known for generous (9oz) wine pours. 5 of 6 in our group went for the eggplant parmigiana!

We came to celebrate my husband’s birthday. The waitress was so nice and helpful. We ordered the combo diavolo (a very good kick to it ️), Mahi Mahi in garlic cream sauce with capers, sundried tomatoes, spinach, and mashed potatoes, and lobster ravioli in a spicy brandy cream sauce with shrimp, scallops, mussels, and roasted tomatoes. Everything was delicious.

This place feels like a true trip to Italy. The pasta selection is amazing, the menu is put together with so much care, and everything we tried was delicious. The vibe is warm and welcoming, the staff are super friendly, and it’s always busy — which says a lot about the quality and taste. Definitely a spot you’ll want to come back to.

After passing by this place for years, we finally have decided to go and we keep coming back every month. I highly recommend making a reservation as the place gets very full and the parking lot is always packed.
The baked lasagna is always good and it looks like a brick in size. My go to is the veal Parm. It is very tasty. Pounded very thin and cooked. Perfect perfection. My daughter had the Rotolo and she really liked it. This is a family run place and I highly recommend if you like Italian food to come here.

I highly recommend this restaurant! We had our mom’s 95th Surprise Birthday party and invited 22 people. It was a beautiful secluded area that was very elegant. INCREDIBLE wait staff — several that were attentive, great bar selection and guests were happy with the cocktails, delicious appetizers and we decided on several entrees guests could order. Incredible food and everyone had leftovers to take home the next day. Generous portion sizes. So nice that they could handle our large event!

Wonderful Italian restaurant serving all of the nice, old-school fare you’ve come to know and love over the years. Wonderful portions, nice moody atmosphere, warm helping staff.
The food was wonderful. I absolutely LOVED the sausage and bean soup. Same with the Petti di Pollo al Limone; the chicken and lemon flavor both came out really nicely, coming from someone that is a big Chicken Piccata fan. I was also shocked that Vitello San Giuseppe was “even a thing” — wonderfully breaded layers of eggplant with veal in the middle.
All of the sauces were delicious, and you could tell they were thoughtfully made and with care. They tasted better than you could imagine they should.
And apparently this place is a pizza place, too?? Suffice it to say, you can sit down for a nice meal here and know you will enjoy your favorite dishes.

There’s a reason this place is always packed! Absolutely INCREDIBLE gnocchi and the best wine pours around. They should make their red pepper gnocchi with a creamy pesto sauce and goat cheese part of the regular menu, it was one of my favorite dishes I’ve had from there!

I’ve never written a Google review before and I had to after our experience tonight. we had a reservation at 7:30, for 2, was told it would be a few minutes wait which is understandable it was a Saturday night. But then 45 minutes went by and we finally got Sat. The waitress didn’t check in on us, she tossed the food onto the table, this was our place for special occasions and it will be our last. Don’t take reservations when you are overwhelming busy. I have worked in the restaurant industry, I get it but this was bad.
