Went to Capri for the second time this weekend- we had forgotten about how bad the service was the first time, and this was no different. Perhaps it was because we were in a group so they automatically tacked on 20% to the check, absolving them of the necessity to try hard, but i did notice smaller tables struggling to get noticed as the waiter and waitress flirted in the corner and the (I believe) manageress staggered around clearly having sampled the Grappa a little too much. When the waiter brought the wine (a $35 bottle of cheap chianti) he said ""Ok if I just pop it open and just cruise?"" -none of that time wasting ritualistic tasting nonsense. We had to beg to get water. When food was dumped on the table (I use the phrase ""dumped rather than ""served"") it was about as good as a jar of Scarpetta and some dried pasta (ie good, but nothing I couldnt whip up in 10 minutes at home). They didnt offer pepper or shaved parmasan as is customary in the cheapest italian restaurants. 3 of us ordered the same dishes- they all looked different. I dont know how this place can compete in a city of excellent restaurants. The uncomfortable chair thing may seem trivial, but it does make a difference when you're stuck in one for 2 hours!
Pros: location
Cons: service
