If there’s one thing I’ve learned about dinner dates, it’s that the place really sets the mood. Recently, I had one of those nights that remind you how simple moments, good food, great company, and the right ambiance can turn into something special. And it all happened at Capri’s Restaurant and Deli.
Tucked in a quiet corner of the city, Capri’s gives off this warm, intimate vibe the moment you step in. The interiors strike a balance between classy and cozy, featuring soft lighting, industrial woody accents, and a calm, inviting atmosphere that makes you want to stay a little longer. It’s the kind of place where conversations flow naturally, laughter feels easy, and you forget about checking your phone for a while.
The lighting is soft, the tables are set with care, and the air is filled with the comforting aroma of garlic, herbs, and simmering tomato sauce. It feels warm, authentic, and wonderfully unpretentious. You can actually hear your date across the table without shouting! The casual, welcoming vibe immediately puts you at ease, which is half the battle on a date, right?
Now, let’s talk about the food because wow. Each dish feels thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented.
We started with a delightful spread, and Capri’s does not disappoint. Tried their classic lasagna, baked to perfection with layers of creamy cheese, rich tomato sauce, and basil. It’s the kind of dish that feels like a warm hug, hearty, comforting, and absolutely satisfying. We also had their Truffle Pizza, which was both aromatic and indulgent, alongside crispy fried ribs served with slaw and a tangy dipping sauce. It was a balance of comfort food and gourmet flavors — perfect for sharing.
Of course, no dinner date is complete without wine. We paired our meal with a bottle of Merlot Veneto, smooth and easy on the palate, the ideal companion to a night of good food and better company. A beautiful charcuterie board, an assortment of cured meats, cheeses, nuts, grapes, and biscuits that paired perfectly with a glass of wine. Alongside it was a fresh Caesar salad, crisp and flavorful, balancing out the richness of the deli board. The bread, served warm with olive oil and balsamic, added that comforting touch that completes any good meal.
What I love about Capri's dinner menu is that it focuses on doing the classics exceptionally well. There's no fusion or fancy over-the-top presentations, just honest, heartfelt Italian cooking. Everything tastes incredibly fresh and authentic, like your "Italian grandmother" spent all day in the kitchen just for you.
More than the food, what stood out was the overall experience. The staff were attentive, warm, and made sure everything flowed seamlessly throughout the night. The atmosphere was calm but lively, and there was this unspoken sense of comfort that made the whole evening memorable.
If you’re looking for a place to celebrate a special night, enjoy a quiet date, or simply indulge in good food and wine, Capri’s Restaurant and Deli is the perfect pick. It’s where you can slow down, savor every bite, and make moments that linger long after the plates are cleared.
