Was staying at a hotel nearby and felt like eating Italian for dinner and so glad we found this restaurant. The atmosphere takes you to Italy! The food was flavorful but service wasn’t the friendliest. We were dressed very casual as we didn’t feel like getting dressed up and everyone else was dressed nicer than we were lol. Still recommend if in the area.
Capriccio was recommended to us by our hotel. It was a short walk from the hotels nearby. The service was excellent and food was outstanding. Would definitely recommend to anyone staying nearby and would go back
I was visiting Miami from Vancouver, Canada, and while I was there I randomly chose this restaurant based on the good reviews and I’m so glad I did. I had the Pear and Cheese Fiochetti and it was honestly the best pasta I have ever had. It was so delicious I was sending photos home to friends and family raving about it. The ambiance is classy but cozy and they had jazz playing in the background which perfectly matched the mood. There are only a few meals I will never forget and this will definitely be one of them. I just hope I’m lucky enough to go back to Miami so I can experience this again.
Problem I have is that there is a small child that is allowed in the back while they are preparing food. Then a worker starts dusting where they are preparing food also . Just don’t feel like its very sanitary. Food was very tasty. The eggplant was warm in some places and hot in others. Portion size was huge.
Felt for Italian and we were in luck to find this restaurant close to our hotel. The atmosphere was cosy, inviting and casual. Felt like you were whisked away to Italy. The service was excellent. Our waiter was knowledgeable and helpful and accommodating. The food was outstanding. The wine was delicious and good quality. The olive oil was excellent and we wanted a bottle to take. We even took pictures of both the olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Next time I’m in Miami, I won’t bother to look for any other restaurants because, I will be absolutely returning to this wonderful place.
We stopped by as it was close to the hotel and we are lucky that we did. The restaurant is nicely decorated and makes you feel like you have entered a different world. The server was friendly and on point with drinks and kept us happy. The bread that came to the table was delicious with the balsamic vinegar and olive oil. It was so good, I took a picture to find it again when I got home. We ordered one pizza and it was more than enough for two people. It was hot, gooey with a crisp crust. It was a perfect pizza. If we were here longer, we would have come back.
We walked to the plaza Capriccio Blue Lagoon is in because we weren't sure what to eat after getting in later from our flight. The waitress brought out a menu for us to look at as we contemplated where to eat and Im so happy we chose this restaurant. The pizza was excellent. We had the Calabria special and it was phenomenal. The freshness and vibrance of the sauce was delightful. It was honestly the best pizza I've ever eaten. If you are looking for authentic, Italian pizza, this restaurant has it. 1000/10.
