“ Delightful intimate and cozy restaurant. Reliably good food and attentive service. ”
“ Visited this place for the first time this week. After a recent trip to Italy, I can honestly say this food was truly authentic and so delicious! We were greeted by the owner and talked all about our trip through Tuscany, Rome, and the Amalfi Coast. It’s so nice to have a true Italian restaurant close by. Can’t wait to visit again! ”
“ I visited Ciao Capri for the first time last week. It was a Thursday and they told us the bottle of wines are half price on Thursday! Lucky us. We surely enjoyed a bottle recommended by them along our delicious handmade dishes. The owner & his family are so friendly and kind. I would love to go back again very soon! ”
“ This was an absolutely wonderful dining experience, food was fresh and delicious with a warm community feeling to the atmosphere and friendly service. The co owner checked in on us to ensure everything was up to snuff and that we were well taken care of. This is a great date spot or place for a special occasion I will be back! ”
“ First time here. The place is clean, nice and welcoming. The staff was so welcoming and explained the menu and specials. I ordered a mocktail and that’s the star. Can not believe it was a non-alcohol drink when you look at it. Ravioli was flavorful, tomato base goes well with it. Loved it too. Regular customers will talk with you and it’s nice to talk with them. Unique experience. Reserve ahead. Don’t forgot to check the specials menu .. ”
“ Ciao Capri is a truly authentic family run Italian restaurant with fantastic food and a great ambiance and environment to go with it. Co-owner Alberto along his brother Peppino Mastromano do a fabulous job providing award winning cuisine while making their guests feel like family. Peppino is the head chef and Alberto runs the front of the restaurant. It is clear from the attentiveness and warmth of the staff that they have been doing this a very long time and know how to make guests feel welcome. The bar area is very well done and is large enough to sit 20 guests while the dinning room has dim lights and beautiful photos of Italy making you feel like you are there. I started off with a great glass of red wine and also an eggplant appetizer which was delicious and fresh bread with fresh home made pesto was a staple being offered to everyone with a flavorful imported buttery olive oil. I had the ravioli for dinner which include fresh made pasta and a delicious tomato sauce and then finished dinner with home made cannoli's. Dinner was magnificent and the service and Alberto's personal attention made us feel like regular clients even though it was my first time there. Even though this place is located in a shopping mall the interior decorating and warm friendly vibe will make you think you are in a small cafe in Capri, the island where both of the Mastromano brothers are from originally and you will definitely be coming back to visit again. Great for families, friends and couples. Be sure to say hi to Alberto and ask for his advice for a great wine as we did - you will not be disappointed! ”
“ Do yourself a favor and go try this place. I read the reviews and we decided to try it for date night. This little place has the most amazing food with great service. The owners and staff make you feel like family! They walk around and speak to everyone. I love this place. Kitchen closes at 8 so get there early! ”
“ Asked for short-notice seats for two; enjoyed a fine meal seated at the bar! Everything was excellent and presented nicely, with attentive service. I'll make a point of coming back, and make a more advanced reservation so I can share with friends! ”
