Capo's New York Pizza & Italian Ristorante

I opened Capozzi's in 1997 to create a casual place in a friendly atmosphere, with great food at a reasonable price. You know, a neighborhood place kind of like the ones I grew up in. Where you see your family and friends enjoying themselves over an old fashioned, home style meal. The people that work there know you and your family. As a boy growing up in New York there were many things that I was exposed to that shaped my culinary skills. Every Sunday was pasta day at Grandma?s house in the Bronx. All the Aunts, Uncles and Cousins were there screaming and yelling from soup to cannoli (Italian for appetizer to dessert). Grandma would always have a big pot of gravy (that?s tomato sauce) on the stove. Mom and her sisters always helped, one made Ravioli, another Lasagna and Mom rolled Manicotti.
