Best Italian in Hyde Park
Saturday, January 11, 2003
Pizza Capri is a nice mix between your bustling, typical Chicago pizzaria and your small, romantic pasta joint. The weekend can be a bit crowded, and the restaurant could use a little more room (and another waiter?), but the food is well worth the wait. Garlic (or not) to your heart's content, in pizzas, pastas, soups, sandwiches, and salads galore. Though the food is more pricey than your average Hyde Park fare or student budget, they have multiple sizes for most of their (amply-sized) dishes. Overall, a fabulous place for a meal with friends (try the Creamy Garlic Chicken Pasta...spectacular!) .
Pros: well-constructed menu
Cons: crowded
