Capones is the best! We got the artichoke appetizer to start. It was amazing! I got the fig and goat cheese stuffed ravioli- to die for! My husband got the special chicken in a delicious mustard sauce-fantastic dish. The staff were outstanding great service and so friendly. Always good food with great friends

Celebrated my mom's birthday, and they were accommodating of our group size, but making the reservation was very complicated. Couldn't make the reservation on Open Table, was told to call the restaurant. Called the restaurant, and they said to use Open Table. It took several calls to get the reservation made and was a combination of entering a smaller group size on Open Table and then calling the restaurant to have it modified... Folks, either let us book directly on the app or directly with the restaurant... this was ridiculous. It was consuming, and Capone staff didn't always seem to know what they were doing... On the third or fourth try, I finally found someone who did. The food is always good at Capones; I have no complaints there. Services started off well until the restaurant got busier. It was slow thereafter. We had to wait a significant amount of time to be offered after-dinner beverages and desserts. It wasn't the best experience... but it wasn't the worst experience.

Capone's is not exempt from the "nickel & diming" approach that has overtaken restaurants lately. Got charged extra for: - Subbing one pasta for another - adding extra sauce - refill on bread They were never like this before.

The food was excellent. Our waitress was very attentive and warm. The ambiance was spoiled by the noise level. We could hardly hear ourselves. You must try to mitigate the noise level. Of course some customers are loud and obnoxious and not your fault.
