    Birthday dinner success everyone but my jar sauce daughter loved there food . We had 3 orders of the Chicken francese which was cooked to perfection . I had the Puttacesa pasta the pasta was fresh I love a lot of sauce and it was well sauced but not over done. We also had the Ragu so delicious . The front of house staff was busy but they rocked it with smiles .You would be doing yourself a disservice if you don't try Cafe Capriccio. Thank you Dan and Jen excellent service .

    Mozzarella wonton eggs started the eclectic fusion experience and they were crispy without being greasy or oily tasting. The burger was a flavor blend mb and cooked to requested medium. The pollo ala brasa was juicy & I wanted to lick the plate. I appreciated that the waitress didn’t just ask how the food was, she specifically asked if the burger was cooked to order. I will visit again when I’m in the area!
