Pesto Bianca, hot roni, and prosciutto pizzas
Sarah C.

Capishe was a fantastic dinner spot! The city view is incredible, and they validate parking for the garage next to it which was great. The food was reasonably priced and SO GOOD. You order and pay at the counter and then your food is served to you when it's ready. Quick service. Will be back soon!

Fast service. Good food. Spacious. Validated parking. What else could a girl ask for?

Met Albert out on a Harley Ride who happens to be the owner. After a long day of riding and socializing we headed over to the restaurant. Albert gave us a tour before letting us sample a few of the favorite dishes there. It was absolutely amazing and the staff service was exemplary. Cant wait to head back. Paul

10'' San Lorenzo Pizza - seriously sooooo good!
Kenny C.

Wow! I came into this meal expecting a 4 star meal but I was happily surprised how great this pizza was. I got the San Lorenzo and the flavor combination was incredible. I need to start making this pizza at home - the sausage, sweet peppers, and onions worked so well together and really brought this pizza to life. I also did the Spicy Marinara Wings and they were good, but not amazing. I would have preferred them more crispy, but with oven roasted wings that's what you get. I'm going to try a dry rub next time, maybe it'll be a better texture. Overall I gotta go 5 stars because the pizza was that good.

Food and service are both bad. Don't know how to bartend. If you get takeout pizza expect to have to cook it yourself when you get home. I live across the street from this place and I will never go here again.

I must admit that my expectations for this restaurant were sky-high. I had seen incredible reviews and wonderful photos (especially of the pizzas), but I was disappointed and in full force. Let's start with the positives: a very pretty place, interesting decor, and beautiful pastries in the window that make your mouth water just by looking at them. Now for the points of concern: the furniture is very worn out, with a torn sofa, scratched and dirty tables. It's a very large space but clearly underused. We ordered a spicy Calabria and prosciutto pizza. The prosciutto pizza tasted ok, but I must admit that the prosciutto didn't seem to be of good quality and looked like lean ham. The spicy Calabria pizza was impossible to eat. We like peppers, but the level of it is so strong that you lose your taste buds. Each of us could only eat one piece and we left the whole pizza on the table. Unfortunately, there really was no way we could keep eating. The price is good, but I don't think I would go back because it didn't surprise us.

Food Ordered the Angelina and added artichokes. Really liked how there were options with regular pizza sauce and with no sauce. A lot of great food options but was only in the mood for pizza. I enjoyed the light crust, that bufala mozzarella was something special!! Nice garlic flavor, as well. Service Exceptional! You order at the front then pick an area to sit. Sat outside with it being mild weather outside and they bring the food to you. We asked for napkins and plates and they brought those, also. As soon as we were done eating, they cleaned up the table immediately. Ambiance Indoor and outdoor seating make it a great place to take in the city sounds with great company. I will definitely be back when I'm in Charlotte.

Fresh, flavorful, and made with care--Capishe delivers Italian comfort food at its best. The house-made pasta is silky and satisfying, the pizza dough perfectly crisp, and every dish feels thoughtfully crafted with quality ingredients. It's the kind of food that keeps you coming back. The ambience matches the food--modern yet welcoming, with exposed ceilings, hanging lights, and sleek industrial floors that give it a cool, urban feel. It's casual but charming, making it a great spot for anything from a quick bite to a leisurely meal. No fuss, just really good Italian. Capishe?

Rigatoni with chicken & mushrooms- DELICIOUS!
Bob B.

The food is good. BUT the parking garage charges you high fees even when capishe validates your parking ticket. Rip off for eating there & having to pay high fees for parking. Don't go here with a big group and stay over 2 hours.

15'' Margherita Pizza
Nancy L.

My friends and I ordered take out from here for dinner. We ordered the Margherita pizza, rigatoni with chicken, and the San Lorenzo pasta. All were delicious! The pizza is a thinner Neapolitan style crust with fresh ingredients. The rigatoni came with mushrooms and a light cream sauce which was not too rich at all. Really comforting. The San Lorenzo came with sausage and was pretty spicy! This was probably my favorite one. Even the free breadsticks that came with the order were fluffy and warm when they were delivered. It was overall delicious! I bet it'd be even better dining in.

Carbonara with chicken
Jonathan B.

Food came out hot and on time. We also ordered a side salad that was good and plentiful. As for the carbonara pasta while the presentation was great, I wouldn't order again. It was very bland and lacked flavor especially in the noodles. Sadly I spent more time adding Parmesan and pepper to dress it up but still didn't do the trick. Maybe if I let it sit and try again tomorrow it'll be better. But seriously lacks flavor.

Greasy 10'' Calabria Piccante

I ordered the Calabria pizza and the antipasto salad. The pizza was so greasy it was inedible. I tried to get the grease off with napkins but even so it was so floppy and tasted like it was soaked in grease. The salad was fine. Also, it is counter service and they flip the screen around for you to tip. I tipped my regular 20%. When my salad arrived I asked for a fork and the lady bringing the salad told me I could get my own fork across the restaurant. They should make it clear there's no table service ahead of suggesting 20% tips.

San Lorenzo (10")
John H.

Spacious setting with outdoor seating and fast service. We've been a few times and the pizza is decent and well prepared (not burnt). I went with the Calabria Piccante the first time and peppers were a little much for me. The second time I went with the San Lorenzo and it wasn't quite as flavorful as I had hoped. Decent selection of beers on tap. Service was friendly and prompt.

All of the sauces and curry creams were cooked to perfection hot in temperature not too hot to enjoy. Our servers were very kind and patient and courteous to us as we made our decisions. They also made perfect combination for our selections. And the best selections for drinks and desserts. Since then, I've even ordered on Uber eats and my food came just as perfect. This is a great go to place for good Indian food. If you're in the uptown area it's located below the Green parking lot, which is across from the Knight theater. It's just a good place even if you want a good drink at the bar. Enjoy!

The staff was very courteous, friendly and just the kind of people you would want working at this type of place. They were very attentive, thoroughly explained menu choices and kept refilling our drinks without us asking. As for the food, I was told that the chicken was pretty good. You could taste the hot honey on the Brussels sprouts and some were crunchy, while the rest was not as much. Now for the short rib, I really like short ribs and was told this was a popular dish, but mine was a bit dry and a little too firm on the exterior. The broccolini and shallots were great, but the Ty Leno polenta wasn't my favorite. I would come here again, but I would try a different dish.

Disappointing overall. Went for dinner but they didn't have their regular Dinner Menu available…read morebecause there was an AC/DC concert that night and their kitchen isn't able to deliver their regular menu on busy nights. Ridiculous. The Dinner Menu is posted on front of the restaurant AND online, with no mention the limited menu was the only option. Our server told us he completely understood our dissatisfaction, and said that we were welcome to go elsewhere. At that point, we didn't have the time to shift gears or we would have done so. While 3 of 4 couldn't get what we came in for, the food we had was good. Duck & Dumplings was probably the best dish. Two got the Shrimp & Grits and said it was good. My Ceasar Salad with chicken was pretty tasty, too. Service from Devon was very good and food runners delivered food to the right spots without prompting. I went back later in the evening for a bite and cocktail at the bar and I was completely ignored. Bartenders kept just clearing and taking orders from people walking up. Infuriating. Its a shame that the restaurant is just poorly managed.

El Italiano was a close second, packed with flavor and just the right texture. The torta was solid too, just a little spicy for my like, but I never checked if it was, and the Caprese made for a fresh, lighter option, it was missing the fresh mozzarella and fresh tomatoes. Service was fair. Overall, the place has a chill vibe, the food came out quickly, and we'd come back to try more of the menu.
