I haven’t been here in a few years and decided to return as I’ve always loved the ambiance. I remember the food as being good but not excellent. This time it was excellent as was the seevice and everything about our meal. It seems they have really stepped things up a notch since I was last there. I’ll definitely be back again soon!

Our server was incredible, my partner has food allergies and she felt really safe and also the kitchen made a plate of carrots and dip in place of the bread service for her. The food was outstanding with our favorite being the grapefruit and burrata dish.

We were running late and the hostess was able to accommodate our new schedule. As soon as we arrived we were seated. We had theater tickets and our waitress made sure we got through dinner on time. Betty was amazing. We were able to get vegetables for the hummus for the gluten free people. The theater menu was perfect. Food was delicious and service was top notch. Highly recommend this location.

This was truly a one of a kind experience!! Capri is now one of my favorite restaurants and they have gained a new loyal customer! I ordered the Short Rib and my date ordered the Branzino and we paired it with a bottle of their red wine and i was simply amazing! Their service is absolutely incredible, they make you feel very special and that they genuinely care about their customers! The waitress took great care of us and she made sure to answer any questions we had and help us out with some recommendations! Highly recommended this new gem in Queens Village!
