TERRIBLE, terrible terrible service, average cuisine, uncomfortable chairs. 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 give us good service. When I go out to a restaurant and spend a decent amount of money AND have the 20% tip automatically added in there, I demand good service. And as an ex-waitress myself, I'm one of those really nice customers, not the kind who condescends and whines, so when someone like me is complaing, you know it's bad. When the waiter brought the wine (a $35 bottle of cheap chianti) he said ""Ok if I just pop it open and just cruise?"". I had to THREE times march into the kitchen to begs someone in there for some carafes of water for the table. Both times we were there, the owner of the place was wasted, so you can see where the staff get their cues from... When food was dumped on the table it was so average--my husband and I (who are no chefs believe me) cook better than this at home when we're having one of our quickie dinners because of no time between work and baby. They didnt offer pepper or shaved parmasan as is customary in the cheapest italian restaurants. 3 of us ordered the same dishes--only one of them had the sauce on it. 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 foe 2 hours!
Pros: location
Cons: service, food, value
