Had an outstanding meal there last night. Great atmosphere. Excellent service from ALL staff. Fabulous decor. The food was the best Italian I've had outside of a Nonna's kitchen. Absolutely divine. Can not wait until the next visit. read more

This was my third time coming to Capra's, and I was very disappointed in my most recent visit. We had a group of 10 for Saturday at 6 pm. We arrived at 5:45 pm and did not leave until nearly 8 pm. The food came painfully slow - there was a 20 minute gap between placing our order and when the appetizers arrived. Then there was another 30 minute gap between when appetizers were finished and when our mains arrived. Once we received our mains, they had forgotten 2 of our salads, which took another 10-15 minutes to come. As a piece of advice, don't order the caeser salad. It was one of the worst caesers I've ever had in my life - it was over dressed and had odd ingredients - like shredded hard boiled eggs. But hey, to each their own. Half our table ordered the spaghetti with clams and the other half ordered the tagliatelle - we all noticed that everyone's tagliatelle was lukewarm. Auto gratuity was set at 20%. So thanks for the slow service, average food, and giving yourself a 20% tip to top it all off. read more

Came here for lunch on a Saturday and the food was delicious. We ordered the polenta chips and crispy artichoke for starters, these were recommended by our server which was quite delicious. I had the agnolotti which is a wild boar ravioli, very creamy and comforting. My wife ordered the parmigiana pizza and that was very good as well. Service is great and atmosphere is very chill. I would recommend this restaurant if you are looking for family or bigger group gatherings has a lot of room to accommodate, I also noticed that there was a private party room in the back. Parking is a little weird because they have their own parking in the rear of the building, apparently the front is reserved to the other patrons in the plaza. Thumbs up for Capra's Kitchen. read more

Rainy on Saturday, we went to this place with great ambience. We ordered one venetian salad with very delicious grilled salmon, and robusta pizza. Love them and will visit again soon! read more

I have only been for brunch and it was a good experience. The portions are very big for what most brunch places serve these days. I would probably not order the egg white frittata again, but anything else on the brunch menu is solid! Thanks for the great food. Will be returning to try the pancakes. read more

We have not had great experiences when visiting the restaurant because we always end up with the worst table in the house when seated inside. And the service tends to be so-so. Having said that we order take out all the time and the pizzas and vegetables sides are always a four and sometimes a five. read more

Ordered a takeout meal from Capra's Kitchen last evening, and it was delicious! The service was friendly and they were so appreciative for the business. I will definitely be ordering again and can't wait to attend in person. 2 Margherita Pizzas, Caesar Salad with Cheesecake for dessert. Yum! Thank you for continuing to serve our community. read more

Great food, casual , friendly setting . Good service. Perfect for a night out when you are craving Italian food ,like we were tonight. We will be back to have more from the menu! read more

Fantastic food and amazing cocktails. I had the Agnolotti pasta dish with wild boar and it was one of the best pasta dishes I've ever had; everyone at my table tried it and loved it! read more

Very slow service, clearly they are not prepared to serve the number of people their restaurant holds. Almost 2.5 hours for a glass of wine, an appetizer and a bowl of pasta. The two appetizers (fried artichokes and a burrata dish) were competent but dull. For the mains, we had boar agnolotti, which had a sweet sauce that totally overwhelmed the dish. It was like desert for dinner. The crab pasta order was messed up and we were served spaghetti and olive oil. It was, not surprising, very plain. We got a complimentary glass of wine, but they charged us $20 for the spaghetti and olive oil. Ironically, it was better than the agnolotti. We won't be back. read more

My first visit to Capra was during Savour Mississauga. We weren't overly impressed but we allowed Capra to redeem themselves a couple of weeks later. Capra is located in the Clarkson neighborhood of Mississauga. For our second visit, we went to Capra's for a birthday dinner with family. I called ahead to let them know of the occasion and they had a birthday card signed by Chef Massimo awaiting at our table - a nice touch. The restaurant has a warm interior with unique lighting and a bar lined up with wine bottles to the ceiling. I noticed that the restaurant was filling up fast and Chef Massimo was making his rounds greeting diners. As we settled, I had let our server, Jason, know that one member of my party had a low sodium requirement. Jason was great. He knew the menu and specials off the top of his head and even described how the dishes were prepared and which ones could be made with low sodium. We started with drinks and appetizers of bruschetta and crispy garlic and chickpeas dip. Both dishes arrived and they were delicious. The dip was especially tasty that came with soft bread and was topped with whole roasted chickpeas. Jason (who provided great service throughout our visit) came by for our dinner orders. There was one item that we asked if it could be made low sodium - the Capra Pizza. He checked with the kitchen and he said they could accommodate by removing the tomato sauce. Along with the Pizza, the table ordered Spagettini Clams, Salmon Filet, Agnolotti Wild Boar (on the advice of Jason) and Tagliatelle Bolognese. It took a little while for our orders to arrive. However, while we were waiting, the Manager, Joanne came by to check in on us. That was appreciated - great customer service. The food look a little longer than expected, probably because they do not rush you here. When the dishes came, they came piping hot. Members of the party raved about the Spagettini Clams and Salmon Filet. Both tasted so fresh and the salmon was a big filet portion cooked perfectly with caviar lentils which was a nice touch. I had the Bolognese. Most restaurants overpower the bolognese with tomato sauce. Not here. It was in perfect balance so the meat flavour of the beef, veal and pancetta shines through and goes perfectly with the al dente cooked pasta. The pizza was good, even without the tomato sauce and was big enough for 2 people. The Wild Boar dish was amazing. I had a chance to have a bite of this. It was ravioli stuffed with wild boar in a rich mushroom sauce served in a unique circular dish. Very unique and tasted great - thanks for the recommendation Jason! Jason came by periodically to re-fill our drinks and check in on us. We were so stuffed that we didn't have room for dessert. However, Jason came by with a big plate of Neapolitan ice cream topped with whip cream and a birthday candle. He lead us to singing "Happy Birthday" and we all had some of the dessert (there is always room for ice cream!) A great way to cap our great dinner experience. If you go, do make reservations. We will certainly be returning. read more

Friendly service, nice menu options, good patio. They can make a side of kale/cabbage/brussel sprouts into a standout dish. The clam pasta was nicely seasoned, the calamari was fresh and cooked to the right texture. Pizza crust was perfect. Food had a tad too much oil for my taste but enjoyable nonetheless. read more

Much improvement over the first couple of weeks after the opening. Food arrived on time. Pizza is not under cooked. 3 stars because 1) menu has too much emphasis on carb 2) servers confuse you into ordering bottled spring water by calling it stillwater and calling tap water "mississauga 's finest. Very cheeky. Maybe they're trying to be cute? 3) Morretti tasted very skunky and watered down. Came home and immediately opened a bottle of Morretti to check and confirmed their beer was off. Would still go for pizza because I can get a ok pie w/o having to drive to Oakville downtown or Roncesvalles, but for pastas casalinga or Michael's is much better. They need to rework their menu to ease up on carb and balance it w/ protein w/o having to order a second dish. read more

Massimo Capra was in the kitchen on a recent weekday lunch, which explained the perfectly seasoned and plated food. This restaurant is hidden in a simple strip plaza in gentrifying Clarkson. Questionable decor includes cardboard hung strategically on walls. (Emperor's new clothes?) If you can overlook that there's nowhere to hang your coat, that the server fools you into ordering $6 bottled water, and the $13 subpar cocktails, then this is the place for you. Stereotypical suburban menu overemphasizes carbs and desperately needs a secondi (meat) section. Awesome dessert tartufo full of delicious nuttiness ($9). read more

Great food in a warm and inviting atmosphere! After hearing that Massimo Capra's latest restaurant was situated in the heart of Mississauga, my husband & I were looking forward to giving it a try. We arrived to a packed restaurant just after 8 p.m. on a Saturday night, but luckily were able to sit at the bar with s full view of the appetizer/dessert prep girl and kitchen. We were originally going to wait for a table but decided to stay put as we really enjoyed watching the hustle & bustle of the kitchen staff, prep staff & servers. We started off the night with a meat & cheese shared board which was a nice variety of meats, cheeses, olives. house pickled vegetables fruit mostardo & focaccia bread. Next we shared the Caesar salad consisting of baby Romaine |Fried Mortadella| Spicy Anchovies &!Shaved Pecorino. As someone who eats a lot of Caesar salads, let me tell you this was one of the best I have ever had. The dressing was divine. The lettuce & ingredients were so fresh &'that spicy tangy dressing was so delicious & unique. Next I had the Lamb T-bone | Tomato | Olives | Caramelized Onions & Thyme & my husband had the Tagliatelle Bolognese: Beef | Veal | Pancetta | Wine | Crushed Tomatoes. Both meals were delicious & the portions were large enough that we had some left to bring home for lunch the next day. We usually don't order dessert but we couldn't resist ordering the Chocolate Charcuterie Board, the highlight being the white chocolate mousse. We had the pleasure of meeting Massimo at the end of the night who obviously is very proud of his new restaurant, He expressed his desire to bring a top-notch dining experience to Mississauga and we think he has done just that. We will definitely be back and will recommend Capra's Kitchen to all of our friends & family, read more

Outstanding meal, outstanding service, outstanding décor, this is a great spot!!! Nice vibe to the place. Ask for Natalia, she will take great care of you and engage beyond the regular server banter. We had a fun time. She loves serving "basic" drinks. Was there for a work meal, started with the daily special tuna app and the bruschetta and polished that off. Entrees ordered at the table included the mushroom risotto, Pancetta wrapped Stuffed Chicken and the Salmon Filet, oh, and to top it off we finished with a Skor ice cream dessert. All parties were completely satisfied and had a wonderful evening. Would recommend for a work dinner, romantic dinner or just a fun night out with friends. Visit, you will not be disappointed!! read more

You cannot make reservations at this restaurant for less than 5 people. We went for an 'early Valentine's' bc we could not get a reservation on the actual day. When we arrived we were told it would be a 45 minute wait despite three 6 tops that we could see that were empty. Predictably, the first group arrived as a foursome and we got their two left-over seats. The other two groups arrived MUCH later (like 8:30) and guess what - they were actually fours as well. So, sorry but, this restaurant is going to get taken advantage of that way, and couples that want to get in won't. Maybe 4's should be able to make reservations? There is zero 'ambiance' in this restaurant. The ceiling is high, the tables are close together, the chairs are not the most comfortable and at one point after 9, some tinny music came on that only served to further drowned out the possibility of any feeling of intimacy. It is too loud and brightly lit to feel truly relaxed over a meal. Maybe some baffles in the ceiling to stop the noise bouncing around the whole room? The food is why we gave this restaurant three stars. The Bruschetta was so flavourful - goats cheese, caramelized onions and sweet tomatoes - but served stone cold? The flavours would have been enveloping if only the Bruschetta was warmed. The stuffed chicken was moist and very tasty and the Lamb t-bone was a generous portion of three on a bed of something delicious that complimented the lamb perfectly. But having to pay for sides? We've never liked that - it seems like an unnecessary up-sell. But the buttery carrots and rosemary roast potatoes were cooked absolutely perfectly. Flavour, flavour and flavour are the three stars of Capra's. read more

Third visit. Food was great - lots of vegetarian options and staff was willing to accommodate to make dishes vegetarian if needed. Everything was cooked perfectly, full of flavour. Drinks were expensive but again, very good. Requested a premium gin in drink and didn't get charged extra which was nice. Wine list is extensive. Brought out ice cream and a sparkler for the birthday we were celebrating. Can't wait to go back. read more

I've been to Capra's Kitchen several times. Last time I even brought my team out for a business dinner. Everyone loved it! The menu is simple with a great variety for everyone! The service is attentive and accommodating to allergies and custom specifications! Way to go Massimo! Welcome to Lorne Park! We are happy to support you! read more

Everything we ordered was excellent. Three of us shared two pizzas (salsiccia and funghi), mozzarella app, artichoke app and venetian salad. For us the portions were perfect. Taking one star off and yes it's petty but the trouble is when it's highly rated I'm more critical - the table we were at was at the height of a little higher than regular but not as high as a bar stool so I found myself perching at the edge of my seat so my feet could touch the floor. And our server, he was very attentive and friendly but heard 'perfect' and 'no worries' way too many times. Maybe I'm just old but that really grates on me. read more

Full disclosure...I worked with Massimo at Prego a few decades ago. My friend and I had lunch at the restaurant a few days ago. We started with a kale salad with goat cheese and roasted beets. It was attractively presented, perfectly dressed and tasty. We shared a pizza and wild boar agnolotti. Pizza was a great combination of flavours and textures and a crispy thin crust . The wild boar agnolotti was the highlight of the meal. Creamy mushroom sauce with petite onions. It's was delicious. Dessert was a skor semi-freddo. Nice finish to a great meal. Massimo was, as always, personable and attentive, working the floor of the patio and restaurant. He is one of the nicest chefs in the GTA. Service was also great from our waitress. Great lunch all round. read more

When Italian cuisine includes pasta, it should be all about the pasta. Unfortunately, Capra's drowns their pasta dishes in sauce (four of us each tried a different pasta dish). My sauce was richly tasty; but there was so much of it I felt the menu item should have been called "sauce with pasta" instead of "pasta with sauce." read more

Portions were small and mediocre at best. Would not substitute mushrooms (wife is allergic to them) and had to remove the onions because they were sauteed together. Entree was a 6oz. steak on a thin bed of mash potatoes. Would not serve bread even though i asked to pay extra. they reversed the desserts and all I got was a smile and an apology. This is our 4'th time there and our last. read more

I'm am so happy to have a proper restaurant in our neighborhood! We went for my husband's birthday tonight and didn't expect much as most of Clarkson and port credit is so so, we were delighted with the service, food and atmosphere. Our server, Alisha, should be cloned! As restaurant owners ourselves we know how hard it is to find people who know and love the business as this young lady did. She was an absolute joy and accommodated our adorable but sometimes not so adorable young children. The food was delicious. Get the octopus, even if you don't like octopus. Great wine selection and the atmosphere is casual and classy. Thank you chef Massimo and team. Good show. read more

Loved the ambiance of the place, it has a warm, family feel to it. I loved the spahettini with crab & salmon roe and my friend loved her pasta too. The service was great and very friendly. We had tiramisu for dessert and it was good, only thing i would suggest would be to put less cocoa on top because there was so much of it on top that it takes away from the enjoyment of the dish when the cocoa powder gets into your throat and makes you choke up, Lol Overall love it! Just less cocoa please read more

Good food, good service but the portions are small for the $$. Love Rosa and Massimo and most of the staff is excellent. I love the decor and special details! My favorite dish is the brunch item with eggs, salmon, avocado toast and salad. YUM!!! read more

Wonderful meals...ever time. Service is slow sometimes, but the food is worth the wait. It can get a little loud so if you are looking for a quiet place to eat, this is not the place. Capra's is a hip place, with a cool bar and fantastic food. read more

I visited this restaurant a couple of weeks back with some coworkers. The decor is interesting, though not very cohesive. Everything looks like it was found in a second hand store and thrown together. The waitress suggested a "amazing cocktail special" which sounded so much better than it was. I did not find out until I got the bill that this drink was 15$. I ordered the mushroom pizza and for something that cost $18, I was totally underwhelmed. Finally, our waitress suggested a chocolate and cookie chacuterie board for 4 people (we were a party of 8 but did not want too much dessert) and granted it was quite big, we were charged $56 for average tasting dessert. I am a big dessert fanatic and I could not understand why I was paying $56 for a board of minature cookies and chocolates which were so plain tasting. I frankly could've gone to any bakery and found much better and higher quality dessert. All in all pretty average but for the price, things just didn't seem worth it to me. I will not be coming back. read more

Delicious food! Fair prices! Good wine selection and very friendly staff. Keep it up!

My wife and I were out and about and decided to head to our favourite restaurant.....Capra's.....for a bottle of wine and pasta on their lovely patio. Capra's is without a doubt the BEST Italian restaurant in all of the GTA. The service is an 11 of 10 as is the food. When we got there Capra's has been reduced to takeout only. What a pity for a restaurant that observed all the rules for stage 3. My wife and I were there a number of times leading up to this set back and felt totally safe each time. Our good friend, the "fabulous" Fabio, took an order for us for a pizza and a Caesar salad that we took home. A half hour later the food was still amazing. Fabio thank you so much......you are a genius at what you do. Your attention to your customers needs is a thing of beauty to watch. As soon as Capra's can re-open for inside dining we will be dining with our entire family. To all the just amazing staff at Capra's keep well and stay safe. read more

This was definitely not very good. Limited menu, boiling hot inside and incredibly loud and very slow service. Food is very ordinary. Better choices nearby like the Clarkson Pump. read more

June 14/17- This was our second visit to Capra's kitchen. Celebrating my son's 27th birthday. Our first waitress was wonderful, we were sitting outside on patio but became to cold so we were seated inside (4 people). Second waitress, by bar was not so good. My son had requested to try the beer from Barcelona, which seemed to be on tap outside. She flat out refused to serve us this beer stating not allowed to bring that beer inside , was only to have on patio. She became quite dramatic about why she could not serve that beer inside - her quote " it would create mayhem if she started bringing outside beer inside..she then walked away and did not even offer another selection of beer to my son, we then had to get the attention of our first waitress to order another beer. She kept trying to take our food away before we finished. Food was great, the Charcuterie board it AWESOME. Don't think we will go back as after our first visit both my husband and I became ill and we did notify the restaurant. JB read more

Me and 2 girlfriends dined at Capra's Kitchen last night and it was a very underwhelming experience. I ordered the spaghettini and couldn't believe I was served a teeny bowl of pasta priced at $22 - very disappointing. There were a couple of pieces of crab (unsure if real), the dried leeks stuck to the back of my throat, and it was lukewarm. The Bruschetta consisted of 3 tiny pieces of crostini for $9. My friend had a plate of mushroom risotto that she said was way too salty, and my other friend had the wild boar dish and said it tasted like mushroom soup. The word around town is that the pizza is the best thing about the place. For the hustle bustle in the kitchen, I would expect better food. I also had a gentleman hanging over the half wall watching me eat as his group waited for their table. Even the wait staff is lack lustre in grey t-shirts and jeans. I've lived in Clarkson for over 15 years and we always try to give our community business owners business but I will not be returning. I had high expectations but overall it was a thumbs down experience. UPDATE: Have been reading other reviews and they all seem to point to people having great meals when Massimo is in-house. Maybe they should erect a flag pole and raise the flag at half-mast when he's not there - that way you will know to stay away. Still won't go back. read more

We decided on Capra's for dinner after friends had raved about the food, but sadly we had a much different experience. We ordered the artichokes, the olives, the hummus, parmigiana pizza, tagliatelle bolognese and the porcini mushroom, and all you could taste was the heavy use of salt. Drinks orders took well over 10 mins to arrive, each time and the service was mediocre. The place definitely has potential, but if you're looking for somewhere local to enjoy a night out, I would try somewhere else. read more

When we went to celebrate a friend's birthday we chose this place based on the reviews we read and also because we know of Massimo Capra. Perhaps I expected more because of having heard of him but found my dish a little salty. It was good but a little salty. The atmosphere was very noisy and wasn't quite what I had expected but nevertheless, I may have held my expectations higher than I should have. The entrance was a little confusing but other than this, it was a good evening and everyone else was happy with the food. read more

Wow....loving this place. Simple, rustic Italian dishes that are executed very well with quality ingredients. A simple concept, but restaurants like this are hard to come by in the west end. Service was on-point (we were a group of 8) and although I didn't see many kids there, the atmosphere was very much family-friendly. As a vegetarian, I was also thrilled at all the vegetarian options on the menu. I will most definitely be back to try them all! The only reason why I'm giving this place 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the wine list. Selection is small and much of it is very expensive. Of the reds, only 3 bottles were in the $40 - $60 range. read more

Ok I almost hesitate with the three star because it definitely was more then that, but four star to me defines excellent as I'm kind of stingy with the five star. I'll put it this way, I definitely want to go back. The hummus was good although the boyfriend described it as amazing, either way worth ordering. We had pizza and I have to say the crust was seriously good. Thin, but not dry, yet not flimsy. Honestly it was damm good. You could definitely order one pizza and an app or two and be totally fine. Service was lovely as well. My downfalls are although we were in there at 2:45, we ordered around 3 and at 3:04 she came back and told us she didn't realize the time and that the only thing they served between 3-5 was apps and pizza (we originally ordered something else). I don't know considering it was 3:04 and we ordered before three, I'm thinking they probably should have sucked that error up. Also although the food was lovely it's a pretty basic looking restaurant and perhaps overpriced for what it is. I do want to go back and try the mains.... note to self go after five. If you haven't gone, go... it's worth the trip at least. read more

Made the trip from up north to treat my cousin from Toronto to dinner @ your new location. Server Michele was very bubbly & knowledgeable with information but food lacking & very noisy to attempt to have a conversation having to raise your voice to hear each other. Owners both on site socializing with patrons & told that attention to detail for food delivery...... but not tonight!! The Caesar salad had an entire rib of brown lettuce served which was very unappealing. My stuffed chicken made with dark meat had three pieces of end veins that were not removed, pulling them discreetly out while eating. Disappointing that no even minimal side served but for an extra cost, a few veggies should be put on dishes with the prices for Mains that are charged. Most patrons park in back & walk in the back door to have to walk through a busy restaurant to be seated from the front, would it not make sense to position a hostess @ the back door instead? Massimo & Rosa lots of details to iron out yet before driving such a distance for dinner. read more
