    VERY disappointed in the increased cost. We have been going to Cappys for “special” occasions for years. We always get the Crab Cake entree which included a house salad. Now they have ELIMINATED the entree and you can only order a crab cake fron the starters menu. It now includes NOTHING. Just a plain crab cake. Want anything more, buy a side. SO. Used to be $24 for entree including side. Noe $22 NO Side. Our side order salad was $13. $35 total vs $24 is a not appreciated escalation. SO. Mother’s Day this year was a bit more expensive including a glass of wine for $20. We never expect Cappys to be cheap, but they have about priced us out of returning. PLUS. The wonderful basket of sweet bread used to be served as you sat. Now they ask if you want it and then it never came . When our crab cake meals were served, we asked about the bread and it was then brought to our table. OVERALL. a different and not as expected outing at has once been our favorite . It may be our last visit. Sad 😔

    Mother’s Day lunch was fabulous. Short wait for table, enjoyed mimosa while we waited. We were served water immediately, as we looked over menu. Service was friendly, professional, not rushed. Warm bread was served as we enjoyed our salad. Fresh crisp lettuce, light dressing, not soggy, or over powering dressing. My daughter ordered the steak dish. It was grilled as she ordered, MR., I ordered grilled cheese with lobster sandwich. It was Devine. We each ordered a glass of wine, and got chocolate cake to bring home. Lovely Mother’s Day meal enjoyed.

    How do you run out of bread when you require reservations and know exactly how many people to expect on a busy weekend???????? Drink service was slow. Food was good/ok, no one at our table was raving about their meal.

    Another great dinner at Cappy’s. Erica was our server and she took great care of us. My wife and I shared the fish tacos and they were delicious. Cappy’s never fails to impress.

    Justin was an energetic, friendly and professional as always. My husband's fried shrimp was delicious. My special of the day was good but could have used better presentation. The shaved prime beef salad came out with half-wedge of butter lettuce on top of some sliced Roma tomatoes topped with fried onion rings and the shaved beef on the side, instead of mixed together. Still, a four star dish here is better than most restaurants!
