I recently reserved the private room above the restaurant for my parent's 50th wedding anniversary. Rami & his staff did an excellent job. They took all the pressure off me so we could all enjoy the special event. I would definitely recommend Cafe Capri for your next special event. read more

Caffè Capri is my favorite restaurant in Bryan/College Station! The food is delicious, the servers are friendly and attentive, and the ambiance is perfect for a date night or a family dinner. Whether you're looking for a classic Italian dish or a fun twist, you'll find something for everyone in your party, even the kids! The portions are generous, the menu is budget-friendly, and if there's a long wait, you can sit at the bar and people-watch while you eat or have a glass of wine. Don't forget to pose in front of the ever-growing mural wall on the side of the building before you leave! read more

Too cramped of a space and the atmosphere was horrible.. too loud to hear someone sitting right across from you and the tables were so close together you felt like you were intruding on the dinners/conversations at the tables next to you.. The food wasn't even good for the cost, had to send it back to be warmed cause it came out cold, and the waiters were not attentive. Was an awkward and disappointing experience.. read more

This place is cockroach infested. There was a dead cockroach near my table and behind the booths I was waiting at to be seated. The Floor And the walls at the booth I was staying at were so dirty. When was the last time this place was swept or mopped?!! & the older waiter that I had was horrid. He displayed horrible service. So funny because he had a seductive picture of himself right above us. How odd and unprofessional. This place just doesn't seem very clean or professional. read more

This is my first ever Yelp review and it will probably be my only one, but I just loved this place so much! My mom and I came here to pick up a couple of gift certificates for Delta Zeta Run to the Chicken raffle prizes and we decided to stay for dinner. The owner was very nice and welcoming and we were sat almost immediately when we walked in. On top of that, the service was amazing and the food was delicious. My mom visits about once a month so we will definitely be returning and making this one of our spots to go to. Would highly recommend the cajun pasta and pesto ravioli! So glad we found this little gem in downtown Bryan! read more

Had dinner with a buddy tonight, and it was about as good as you can get in Bryan/ College Station! The wine I ordered was out of stock, but an excellent replacement was suggested by the very competent waiter. The only thing preventing 5 stars was the calamari, they were small and overly breaded/ fried. The main course of portabella mushrooms I've penne pasta was superb; I wish I had room for dessert. read more

The place is small but very nice, definitely not a run of the mill chain. I find the owner very friendly. I find it impressive that staff have worked there several years. The food is a step above Olive Garden or Carino's but every plate is at least a couple of dollars cheaper at Capri. Yeah I am sure your Italian grandma from Naples can do better but can we just drop by this evening when the wife decides she is ready? Best atmosphere, best food,best prices, less wait See you downtown next weekend read more

Cheap? It was cheap when I went there for a dinner for two. Food tasted decent, selection is ok ( the classic italian entree ), not gourmet. Waitress was attentive. A little better than the big chain italian restaurant. read more

We really enjoyed our meal. Great atmosphere and service! Skinny Chicken and bread were great!

We went here for Valentine's day so mind you I knew it was going to be crowded. The location was cool, but the noise level was just shy of unbearable. I am sure that on regular nights it wasn't as loud. The lasagna was not my favorite, however the cajun pasta was fabulous. It had a robust flavor that was so good. The prices were decent and if we were to go on a calmer night I think I would have enjoyed it more. read more

So delicious! I've eaten lunch and dinner here with friends, and even held and event - always good food, always good service, always a good time! read more

I have worked at Caffe Capri for over 22 years on and off and it's because the place, people, and food are amazing. Our goal is to make each customer feel special and cater to your needs. If you have gluten allergies, we have gluten free pasta and sauce available. If you are a vegetarian, we have choices, the eggplant parmigiana is delicious and one of my many favorites. We try to get to know our customers personally and always want you to feel at home here. If you order something and there is any problem, or if you just simply don't care for what you ordered, we make it our mission to make it right. We will bring you something else to your choosing. It's our pleasure to make sure you enjoy your visit with us. We also have a banquet room upstairs that holds up to 60 people, so keep us in mind when you have an upcoming event. We do the work while you enjoy your guests, and event. We also do catering now. And as always, service with a smile. Please come let me take care of you and by all means, save room for our cannoli or chocolate toffee mousse cake, you will not be disappointed!! read more

You can taste that the ravioli are frozen, they even have a deep freeze in the dining area. The waitstaff was excellent though.

I've lived in the BCS area for almost 20 years, and last night was the first time my husband and I visited Caffe' Capri. I hope we just caught them on an off night since they were preparing for a banquet upstairs, but I unfortunately was not impressed. I had the pesto ravioli with chicken. It was very bland and the chicken was dry. My husband had the baked penne. His had flavor, but the bite I tried was really greasy. The mozzarella garlic bread lacked garlic, and was not worth the price since you are given basically the same thing, minus the cheese, for free. The cannoli was cloyingly sweet. The tiramisu felt half frozen, and was very dense. It's sad that the only thing I enjoyed was the free bread with balsamic vinegar and oil. Our waiter was nice, and boxed up all of our leftovers, and I went home hungry. read more

I've been going to Cafe Capri for a couple of years now. The food is not only good but incredibly consistent in its high quality. The staff is always pleasant to say the least. On my last visit I had a lovely conversation with a server named Sam about table top games that made my day. I can't say enough to good things about the excellent and friendly people!! read more

love this place! The cajun tortellini is fantastic. Our server, Sam, was very friendly and helpful!

Don't come in on a weekend and especially when the hostess by the name of Chloe is working. Walked in and asked for three and she said she would let us know when it was ready, never said a wait time and walked off. Some more people walk in and one of the waitresses told them they could eat at the bar after talking with Chloe. Three more people walk in and are not told a wait time at all and when asked she walks off again behind the bar. One party of three walked up to her and after asking was told a 45 minute wait after being there 15 minutes and not being able to get an answer from her. I walk up and ask and she said one table is ahead of us after waiting 30 minutes. Asked Chloe okay so that should be about 10-15. Nope another 30 minutes. Either this child doesn't know how to host and handle wait times or she just doesn't care. When politely telling miss Chloe that maybe she should let parties know a wait time when they walked in instead of walking off when asked she smacked her gum and looked at me and said yyyyaaaahhhhh. Not once did she say anyone could sit at the bar and not once did she tel multiple parties when they walked in how long the wait would be, especially when prompted. read more

This is definitely, without-a-doubt my FAVORITE restaurant in College Station!! I'd give it five stars and two very enthusiastic thumbs up! This is my favorite place to take out-of-towners to, and it quickly becomes a must-have anytime they are in the area. I would recommend the Key West pasta with a lime-caesar salad...I don't know what they do to the caesar salad dressing, but it's amazing! They make their own desserts/cheesecakes so you have to ask what the special is for that nigh, but I would highly recommend you try the dulce de leche cheesecake...yuuumm!! Definitely the best Italian in College Station...or anywhere. Definitely. read more

I can not stress how outstanding this place is. From the first time I came here my freshman year of college (4 yrs ago), I have been addicted. First, the atmosphere is a dimly lit, small, cozy Italian restaurant in downtown Bryan. It has a wine bar that is not too overly priced. Next, the food is outstanding. My favorite is the lasagna. If you like ricotta cheese, you will love this. It has about an inch of ricotta cheese smeared in the center layer of noodles. I honestly will have to say that it is the best lasagna I have ever had in my life (my roommate also agrees with this). The only down side to this place is the wait. It is a very small restaurant and the wait can be very long. read more

Love coming to this place, the food is always fresh, and the service is always fast. Plus the environment is so laid back. Can't wait to come back here again! read more

Caffe Capri was a very nice experience. I agree with the hype comment mentioned above. When it comes down to it, everyone's tastes are unique. If you want a "cool Italian" restaurant, then this is the place. If you want authentic, one of a kind... this probably isn't it. The ambiance of the place is great and I love supporting local businesses. I personally had the chicken parmigiana which wasn't bad. The chicken might have been having a bad day. But anyways, my friends said they liked their dishes. Good for a date (first or fifty-first). Also good for just getting out of Northgate. Hope it helps. read more

I was told that everything was going to be homemade. This is what I'm used to and was disappointed when just the meatball and red sauce where homemade. My expectations are always high as my family makes excellent homemade Italian food. My dads side of the family is Italian. Anyways the meatballs where good, the red sauce was bad; flavor was almost not there, it needed GARLIC, oregano, basil, some sage, onions....... They need to have an option for a meat red sauce. One of the things I look forward to is when your done and you get to soak up the red sauce with good homemade bread. When I was done with the spaghetti I didn't wanted to soak up the remaining red sauce. The bread was okay at best. My date did enjoy hers, she had the lobster dish. I will give them another chance and try something else. Just don't go with really high hopes if you are used to lots of flavor, spice and homemade pasta. read more

Great date spot. Probably the best pasta place in BCS.

My husband and I had not been to Caffe Capri in 6 years. I would really love for last night to be a fluke. Our server was terrible...they ran out of one of the ingredients necessary for my husbands meal (someone did run to wal-mart and pick up said ingredient)...ran out of bread...we were never offered a refill on any drinks, wine or water and they were not crazy busy. I would completely forgive most of those if the line was out the door to get in the place. The meal I ordered is my favorite from Caffe Capri, some of the ingredients have been replaced with imitation and my pasta was gummy at best. My husbands was good but soupy for something that should be baked and have a beautiful thick sauce thats just not ok. The ingredient from wal-mart was inferior and not cooked. He described it best when he said pizza hut makes this and it tastes pretty similar. We were very sad upon leaving. Caffe Capri has always been a special place to get an amazing meal and last night was a serious disappointment. read more

I find myself missing Caffe Capri since I moved to Dallas over a year ago. It's a great gem hidden in the midst of Downtown Bryan. My husband and I used this as our go-to date night when we were at A&M a few years ago. I had my graduation party here in 2011 and then we had our rehearsal dinner here last month in the same room upstairs (ask about private parties!) Between the two of us we have tried most of the menu and are never disappointed. Make sure you get their chocolate mousse cake for dessert too! read more

Only been there once. My husband, parents and I went for my birthday. I was not impressed at all. I couldn't even finishing eating my food. not very appealing. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing. read more

I've always loved this place. Never had a bad meal there. Menu is a bit limited but EVERYTHING we've had was flavorful and the service and setting is awesome. Get there early. They are rarely not busy. GREAT PLACE!!! read more

Only my favorite place to eat in all of BCS. I'm a former A&M grad, and I would try and eat here every week. I always make a point to come and eat here (or at least get takeout) whenever I come into town. Pretty unique place and the staff has always been awesome. Absolutely love the food, tortellini a la capri is what I get every time. read more

The food was absolutely delicious! Had their specialty dish with lobster and it was awesome. Pesto ravioli was great too. Highly recommend this place. Nice atmosphere and very clean. Service was just okay but it was very busy when we were there. read more

This is the best little Italian Café in town. His staff are always happy and helpful. And if you have an issue they will fix it. Their meatballs are so huge and great. Their salads are fresh and the bread is always warm. I have never gotten something there I didn't like. Give it a try and find out for yourself. Love carbs...... read more

The wine list gets five stars, but the food was unremarkable. I had a pasta dish that was overcooked and the sauce was flavorless. The dish featured chicken but actually only had a few tiny slivers of chicken. All this for $11? No thanks. Service is friendly and attentive. Maybe if you go with low expectations of what Italian is you might like this place. I won't be going back. read more

I discovered this place back in the early 2000s while I was still a student and have enjoyed stopping in for dinner when I'm back in town. I've always thought their food was really good but my most recent visit it was...okay. Nothing was bad but it wasn't the standout experience I remember from previous visits. I got the cajun tortelloni, a house special, and my husband got the chicken parm, both standards I'd expect to showcase the fresh ingredients and flavors they're known for. Disappointing, but hopefully just an off night. On the plus side, the neighborhood it's in seems to have really developed in the past few years, which is great to see. read more

Caffe Capri is so good! It's great American-Italian food at a fair price. Their bread is fantastic, which is the first sign of a great Italian place. I've never had to wait to be seated, even on First Friday, although it does get crowded around peak times and it's a pretty small restaurant. It's locally owned, the service is great, and I really have nothing negative to say about this place! read more

We had a lovely meal - good service - fresh ingredients - meat nicely done, not overdone - amazing dessert.

I've eaten at Café Capri many times since it opened and watched the value slowly decline. First, the rather limited menu has essentially not changed in 20 years. The ambiance is still nice and the pre-meal bread and olive oil is thankfully still there. The food is good, but the portions are smaller, meat scarcer and the once-included salad and sides, now add-ons. All for higher prices. OK, this is happening everywhere, but that doesn't make it right. My main complaint was the noise. We were in a booth near the back and were literally screaming at each other to be heard over a large group seated in the middle of the restaurant. We couldn't get out of there fast enough. read more

I appreciate the "Mom and Pop" type restaurants as they tend to be of higher quality and I enjoy supporting them. My friend and I had been hearing ads for Cafe Capri on the radio and how it was voted best of the Brazos valley. You can imagine how surprised we were when the food arrived and it was utterly disappointing and sub par. I ordered the pasta with tomato, pesto and garlic sauce. First of all there was no hint of pesto anywhere in the sauce and it was a basic marinara sauce that would be comparable to a cheap jar sauce. My pasta was not homemade by any means. I'm not sure if they say the pasta is made in house but mine certainly wasn't. My friend ordered the lasagna and received about 3 lbs of ricotta cheese. It was so much she was scraping it off by the spoonful because it made the dish so unbalanced and unappetizing. I was baffled and surprised that pretty much every dish on the menu was made with a cream sauce. I would of liked to have seen some variety rather than everything being slathered in a heavy fattening cream sauce. I was very disappointed with their decor as well. We sat at a table right up front and the chairs were old and sticky and had been recovered by an amateur. I was greatly disappointed by the lack of attention to detail and the run of the mill sub par italian food. I would not recommend Cafe Capri to anyone. read more

I had the chicken parmigiana and I would recommend it! Parmigiana is usually a shallow piece of chicken, but not theirs. It is a juicy, thicker chicken breast so that the breading is not overwhelming. The sauce is rich without being too heavy (probably because it isn't smothered with it), Their Cesar salad has an added zesty, lemony flavor that I really enjoyed especially before having the tomato based sauces in my entree. Their Tiramisu is a two layer cake and the sauce is soaked in properly, but not drenched. The ice tea is just the way this Texan likes it...not too dark with just the right amount of ice. Oh, and the bread is fresh with a lovely vinegary oil dipping sauce. My daughter had one of their specialty dishes entitled Tortellini Alla Capri and she said, " It was the perfect blend of flavorings without being too heavy with generous amounts of crab." read more

My wife and I walked out the restaurant and just looked at each other and she said 'Did that really just happen to us?". The food was really bad - tasted like paste, not pasta. The staff acted almost irritated that we were there. A really bad experience. read more

One of the best restaurants in the area. Rami is always making sure that everything is just right for you. The food is great.

Caffe Capri is a charming, one of a kind Italian restaurant. This restaurant has been around for over 20 years with the same owner and for good reason. The dishes are smart and tasty and very reasonably priced. And the wine list is fun and always changing slightly. read more
