This is one of the best spots in Ocean City! First, this restaurant is small, with only six tables. The inside is super charming. My wife and I shared pasta and a sandwich. The food tasted great and was so fresh. I highly recommend Capo Strada! read more

Did takeout because it was a Saturday. Got a cheesesteak and order of meatballs. Meatballs are very good and recommend them. Cheesesteak was a bit disappointing. Amount of meat was skimpy for $15. Kind of thrown together. Disappointing. Won't order again unless someone has a picture of how they are supposed to look. It did taste good, but sorry it's not consistent with the other things we have gotten there. read more

We got two variations of chicken cutlet hoagies. Decent but very average. Service was good. Timing was good. pricing on par for the Island. I would definitely go back again. read more

I wish I could tell you how the food was... but i can't. I made a reservation at noon for 9 people at 7:30. We arrived 10 minutes prior to our reservation and were told to wait 15 minutes. After the 15 minutes, the table which we were supposed to be seating at only got their entrees. I would not recommend, you would have a much better time going to Luigi's across the street. read more

Order in, sit down and enjoy one of the best pizza in OC. Salads compliment the pizza well

The atmosphere and food definitely brought me back to my Grandma's kitchen. My wife and I started our dinner by sharing a giant bowl of wedding soup with was perfect with two nice crispy bread pieces on the side for dunking. We followed that with a house salad large enough to share, dressed with a light vinaigrette house dressing. Then came a delicious Polpette appetizer - the meatballs were perfectly done with a fresh bright tomato sauce and dollop of fresh creamy Ricotta cheese. For the main dishes, wife had the Cheese Raviolis and I had the Fettuccine Alfredo, both were done right and tasted fresh. Both served very hot and presented well. Our server was attentive and she helped space things out, but let's face it folks that is a lot of food in a short span! Good thing we skipped lunch earlier. We took home a nice bag with a little of everything for another meal. You will not be disappointed. read more

Sept '24 We ate in, dinner for two but were immediately disappointed in the inexperienced two young servers who couldn't bring water, silverware or menus. The girls were not well trained to interact with customers, and we could barely communicate with one of them. The Caesar salad was delicious! However, my sausage filled pepper went right through me! Barely made it to the music pier restroom! We won't be going back. read more

Good new spot for OC! Everything looks pretty good. We got the roast pork, Italia (chicken cutlet sandwich), and a Stromboli. The Stromboli is huge (which it should be for $24). I would like to try their pizzas too some time. The Italia sandwich was very good and I would recommend it over the roast pork. It took pretty long to come out. Bread is nothing too special. Pricing is average and comparable to other places on the island. Sizes are generous. Definitely more of a take out spot but it is hard to get a call in to order sometimes. read more

This place is a hidden gem! Authentic Italian food - this praise comes from a group of 100% Italians! Our waitress was very friendly and the service was fast for our group of 7. So glad we found this restaurant after years of OCNJ trips. This will now be one a regular stop for us each year. We told our friends about it and they went the following night and also loved it. If you haven't eaten here, don't miss out on their delicious food! read more

GREAT corner spot near everything! Food is really good and defo brings the homemade taste. We had the Arancini....light and crispy. Also order the Stromboli....f*kking huge! And just awesome. Really good pastry wrapped around super fresh ingredients and ground sausage. Treat yourself!! There was only one person working and he was killing it. Taking care of us and our killer food and taking phone orders and greeting people read more

Capo Strada - Stromboli! - Pizza Near Me - Ocean City, New Jersey

Cute little corner place with indoor or outdoor seating. The staff is very friendly. The food was incredible from the caprese salad to the eggplant pomodoro as appetizers. The dishes of eggplant parm, chicken parm, chicken fettuccine Alfredo and the orrecchiette pasta were all very good. The only thing that would make it 5 stars for me is if they gave us some bread or rolls with it to pick up some of the sauces. This might be the only Italian restaurant I've been to without bread of some type. But still good enough to come back. read more

Food was great. Sealed it for me as a place to go back to again. Service was fine considering late summer loses college kid help. Would do takeout anytime. read more

We had made especially trips to OC just to go here. I like a sandwich that had Italian meats and olive tapenade which was served on a long seeded roll cold. We ordered over the phone for take out . The only thing I saw on menu that resembles this was a Muffelatta listed under cold panini I did not review my pick up. I waited a significant time in building waiting for order in addition to 35 minutes I gave before I arrived . When I got home I discovered that our calzone and Stromboli were burned. Could not cut . My s cold panini was hot and burned. It did match picture on website so my bad for not asking for details, but clearly was in the cold menu. I wanted a sandwich not the tough doughy (burned) bread that I received. Major disappointment. The flavors were as good as we remember, but definitely will clarify order and do it in person not on phone. read more

Very busy but amazing food and staff. Obviously it's family owned and it shows in great attitudes, service and food!

Excellent food. Chicken Parm is the best I had. Pizza good as well. Only concern is on a Saturday night the wait is very long, like all places in Ocean City. read more

Amazing food! I really enjoyed the long hot appetizer which was so unique: savory, tangy , spicy salty in all the right ways. We were invited in out of the rain this evening w/friendly and warm service. Wedding soup had such a depth of flavor in the broth!! The veal Parmesan was exactly as it should be and the Stromboli with pepperoni and cheese was both massive and delicious. We wish we had room for the cannoli afterwards. Do not miss out on this delicious place! read more

Awesome food and service. Delicious and hot. Marlee was a great server! Thank you Marlee

Went last night for pizza and a beet salad. We got the caprese pizza. It was very good. Service was good too.

Amazing food amazing service now our go to restaurant for dinner out a must when on y the island

Excellent gravy and porchon sizes extremely large. Highly recommended!!!! Service was exceptional! Need to expand a little or let people know to make reservations! read more

Recommended to us and had good food and service. Would go back on another visit. Meatballs were the best ever had in a long time

Kinda disappointed. Service was fine, but I have eaten here before a few times and the food was excellent. This time, something was missing. Not sure I can put my finger on it. A different cook perhaps??? I have had, and loved, the Il Amore hot panino. I ordered it tonight but it just wasn't as good. It had all the same ingredients, but something about how it tasted was less satisfying than in the past. Don't get me wrong, it was good, just not great. I can't say I won't be back. Maybe it was just an off night. Oh, and the music, 50's pop? What the heck? Where is Sinatra? Dino? The ambiance would be so much better with a more appropriate selection of Italian music. read more

We've been waiting to try this place in ocean city! The manager who greeted us and made our food grew up working at Vince's Pizza (for those familiar with the Philly based pizzeria) so we will definitely return to try the pizza! The sandwiches were amazing; bread delivered fresh from AC each morning. Light, crispy, airy feel. The chicken and toppings were so complimentary. That salad was so delicious! The beets were so good, the goat cheese nice and creamy without being overpowering and the walnuts were delicious! read more

Good staple Italian restaurant in OCNJ. My wife got penne vodka with Shrimp. The sauce was pretty good. The size and portions of shrimp were generous. I got the Orreciette and Broccoli Rabe and sausage in a garlic and oil sauce. It was a pleasant surprise. Pasta was cooked perfect and the sauce and sausage were tasty. The Rabe added great flavor too and was cooked just right. We love their bread. It was busy and pretty full. Service was decent but running a few too many tables, so not quite as attentive to detail but was trying. We will do it again. read more

The bottom was just as burnt. I know they looked at it and went..." This don't look right" but proceeded to put it in the box and charge me $26 anyway. Not happy. read more

Great sit and people watch spot, while enjoying the cool night (almost) Ocean breeze. Waitress Zeynep was attentive and responsive. Italian wedding soup bowl was almost meal size, and with combination of traditional meat balls, along with chicken and vegetables was tasty and hearty. Our eggplant parmigiana was large enough to share, the pasta was done perfectly and the sauce was fresh with just enough spices. The eggplant was barely breaded (good!) and exceptionally tender and flavorful. According to my wife, "one of best Ocean City meals I have had" (and we are locals. read more

i've been thinking about it and i was just wayyyyyyy too generous last time. updating my review to one star because two was too nice.

Enjoyed a wonderful lunch. Great personable and friendly service. Great food too. Spaghetti and Meatballs was o e if the best I've had. We also enjoyed the exquisite Italian Wedding Soup that was perfect. We'll be back as often as we can read more

I want this place to succeed so bad. First of all, it s local. I m tired of going to Ventura s off the island for good Italian take out. Called twice at 11:00... no answer. Stopped by a little past 11:00, no one there. Third attempt closer to 12:00 success. First take out was eggplant parmigiana- off the chart good. Second attempt was a little disappointing. No vodka sauce as advertised. The marinara was a little sweet and the meatballs with a touch of too much garlic. I realize taste appeal for gravy and meatballs vary based on what you were raised on. Definition will go back as Luigi s is nothing more than egg noodles with ketchup. read more

The crust on the pizza was over cooked and lacked flavor. The toppings were ok. They were understaffed so the wait was long. We did take away so we ended up seated outside which was pleasant. In their defense it was Labor Day weekend and they were packed/very busy. A hard time to find employees. read more

Ordered eggplant appetizer 1st then chicken Marsala and chicken piccata. After 35 minutes the eggplant and piccata came out but no Marsala. Waitress said kitchen just told her they were out of mushrooms so no Marsala. I declined ordering something else because of how slow the kitchen was and how easily overwhelmed the waitress was. No refills on drinks nor check back on how our food was. Had to go in and request bread plates, napkins and silverware 10 minutes after she dropped bread at our table with nothing else. Just a poor overall experience. Avoid. read more

Another fantastical experience at Capo Strada Italian Street Food. Perfect weather outside, delicious flavors exiting the kitchen, every time we visit! (Or pick up to take home!) This time, we had the Beet and Walnut Salad, The Escarole and Bean Salad and Caprese Salad! The dipping Balsamic Glaze was so so good! read more

Awesome little place we just found today. New hidden gem in OCNJ. Food might take a little longer then some places but well worth it. The food is made fresh to order it and flavorful. Meatballs were delicious. I'll definitely be going back to try a Polpette panino (meatball parm sandwich) because the meatballs were very good. Also I wanted to try the arancini but they were sold out so I will be back to try them as well! Also our waitress was amazing and we had great service from her, wish I had her name for her boss to see in the review. This place will definitely be a spot I will visit when I come to OCNJ. read more

Amazing food and great experience! The penne alla vodka was phenomenal as was the eggplant pomodoro. It looked like they only had one waitress/hostess and one busser and despite the busy restaurant, they were holding their own! The busser overheard us say that bread would be so good with the pasta sauce and he brought us some, then another table asked for straws and he said they were out, but then went down the street to buy more. The vibe inside the place was super cute and italian, and I highly recommend checking this place out!! read more

First time going to Capo Strada and we had planned on dining in until we saw how small the room was so we decided to get takeout instead. The gentleman behind the counter was nice and knew what he was doing. We ordered the veal saltimbocca and eggplant parm and they were both delicious. My husband said his veal was off the charts and ate every bit of it. My mother-in-law and I shared the huge portion of eggplant parm which came with perfectly-cooked bucatini--SO GOOD! And I can't leave out the italian wedding soup. It was by far the best IW soup I ever had - from scratch and flavorful yumminess! Next visit will be for the pepperoni pie and pork sandwich and probably a repeat of what we had today! read more

So yummy! My favorite things are the wedding soup and chicken cutlets. Highly recommended Capo Strada

Good food, wait staff are very nice. Ordered a Stromboli the last time we were there. One of the best on the island.

Enjoyed a great dinner! The food was excellent! My chicken parmigiana was one of the freshest I've had. The meatballs were equally delicious. The pasta was perfectly al dente. Highly recommend a meal here! read more
