    Caesar salad, pasta, burrata
    Sophie L.

    The restaurant is so beautiful - both the inside and outside sections are stunning. We came here for lunch on the weekend and really enjoyed our experience. The service was attentive and the food came out quickly. I will say while I liked the food it didn't wow me, but still a great spot!

    The honey buns taste as good as they look, maybe even better, but save room for dinner! I know it's tempting but trust me there is more good food coming. The chicken parmigiana was amazing. Usually when I order chicken parmigiana, the chicken is small and there's a lot of pasta, but that was not the case at Capri. They give you a decent sized piece of chicken, which is great, but the pasta was also amazing. I actually wish I had ordered more pasta. The Caesar salad was average. The grilled lemon on the side was a nice touch when drizzled over the salad, but I wasn't blown away by the Caesar dressing. We sat at the bar on the patio, and the waiter was super kind and hardworking. He was managing a lot of groups coming and going and still provided great service.

    Came here in a Friday evening with a dinner reservation at 6:15. We were promptly seated in the outdoor patio area. It is in a lovely courtyard surrounded on three sides by the adjacent brick building. The very helpful waitstaff came by and answered questions we had about the menu. We put in our drink orders and all of the cocktails were lovely. The standout appetizers were the tuna tartare, Sicilian citrus, and the honey buns. For entrees, the chicken parmigiana was lovely and crispy, I enjoyed it much more than the same dish at their sister restaurant Prima. For dessert, the limoncello tiramisu was lovely, nothing like a tiramisu aside from the ladyfingers, but it was still delicious! Definitely recommend trying this popular restaurant out if you're looking to try a hot, new restaurant. Probably make a reservation though!

    I'd rate the food a 4/5 but the service/ambiance pushes this review up to a 5 for me. Our server was SO nice and I love that you're able to order half portions of pasta here if you want to try more things. It's also a very beautiful restaurant for pictures. They're known for their honey buns appetizer, which a good way to start the meal (didn't wow me but was still yummy). Of the pastas, I liked the garganelli the best (the chicken sausage was good). Also like the vodka sauce they use. Dessert was good but again didn't wow me. I actually wasn't the biggest fan of the cocktails-- they're beautiful but flavor was a bit one dimensional. Overall though, I'd recommend as a place to go with friends!

    This place is so dang cute! I died and went to heaven having the vodka sauce and trying the tortellini! Honey buns are a must!!

    Had a great dinner at Capri Italian Steakhouse in Boston! We started with the arancini, which were crispy and delicious, then had the bolognese--rich, flavorful, and comforting. The honey buns were such a fun and tasty addition, and the Aperol Spritz was the perfect drink to go with everything. Great atmosphere, too notch service, delicious food, and a really enjoyable night overall. Always a pleasure to return to capri

    Capri's an upscale Italian restaurant in Boston. The space is gorgeous with an elegant downstairs, vibrant upstairs, and they even have outdoor seating that I can't wait to enjoy once summer arrives. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. They answered all our questions and offered great recommendations. The cocktails are creative and tasty, and the food is even better. Their pasta dishes are phenomenal, especially anything that includes the Italian sausage. We also tried the espresso martini with limoncello, which was different, but delicious. We also got steak, which was surprisingly excellent for an Italian restaurant and definitely worth ordering. Overall this was a fun experience and we will definitely come back!

    Chicken Milanese

    Wow. We had heard that Capri was good but it really amazed us still. The atmosphere is striking- two levels and a beautiful outdoor space with lots of greenery, lighting, glass.. it's a fun place to be wherever you sit. It's very popular but also quite big so room for lots of people. Our server was excellent- very well-informed and practiced with a sense of humor. The food was outstanding. We started with the much-vaunted honey buns and they didn't disappoint! YUM! As often happens they were so good that I didn't get a camera aimed at them fast enough! We had the Chicken Milanese, Chicken Piccata, and a mussels special with pasta. All were really flavorful. I had the piccata, which I almost didn't order because it's a classic dish that I can get in most Italian restaurants. Fortunately they did what I had hoped- they took a classic and nailed every aspect of it. It had lots of strong lemon, buttery sauce, light, fresh crispy chicken, perfectly cooked pasta, and nice capers and herbs to round it all out. We had to run to a movie (I know, desperate times), so didn't plan to have dessert. The menu pulled us in enough though to get a single scoop of the housemade Fior di latte honey gelato to share. It was spot-on, with a smooth texture and distinct almost liquid swirl of honey throughout. Mmmmm! Great date spot!

    Super super difficult to get a table, glad I tried it but I'm not sure I'd come back. The food options are what you'd expect for food that tastes pretty good and photographs well. But, i think it's telling that this is a steakhouse and no one orders steak but instead goes for the pasta. Food was good but nothing special across the board at standard mid range prices ($24-$36 for a main). The space was beautiful but it's always so crowded. Service is inattentive at best, passable if you're there to hang out a while I suppose. Not sure I'll be back.

    Everything we ate and drank here was delicious! We started off with the honey buns with ricotta and it was so good. I definitely recommend starting with this for any meal here! We also decided to get the Zucca salad which was the most surprising and most delightful part of the meal for me. The roasted fruits and veggies alongside the fresh kale and vinaigrette was heavenly! For the main course we split the 12oz filet with a side of brown butter pasta and a side of rigatoni with vodka sauce. They offer half portions of pasta which was perfect for trying different options and flavors! We had an early reservation which was really nice because it was crowded at all and we could see the whole venue. The dining area is beautiful. I also recommend going downstairs for another gorgeous view.

    Finally got a reservation here on a Tuesday night and it was worth the hype. This restaurant is absolutely gorgeous. And the food was great! Arancini, chicken parm with vodka sauce, and the tortellini with corn were all incredible. Our waitress Maddy was the sweetest! 100% coming back to try more and get a cocktail at their beautiful outside bar.

    Caesar salad
    Joseph F.

    Finding a spot in town where the service actually matches the hype is getting harder, but this place pulls it off. Shyanne was absolutely amazing. Maybe the best server I've ever had. She gave recommendations, was friendly, and super attentive. She made the experience 10/10. After two visits now, it's clear they know what they're doing, especially if you can snag a table on the outdoor patio while the weather is nice. It's always packed and you absolutely need a reservation, but it's so worth it. What we got: Honey Buns (5/5): Served hot and crusty with a great balance of sweet and salty. The ricotta on the side is a nice addition, though the buns are good enough to stand on their own. Tuna Tartare (5/5): Creative with Calabrian chili that brings a solid hit of heat. Crunchy Caesar (4/5): A very good salad, even if it's not the absolute best version around. Wish they threw some anchovies on there. Meatballs (5/5): Outstanding texture that just falls apart, heavy on the herbs, which we loved. Rigatoni Alla Vodka (5/5): Exactly what you want out of a classic vodka sauce. Tortellini Di Mais (5/5): A new menu addition that hits the right notes for a summer dish. Big portion. Slightly sweet and perfectly cooked tortellini. Lobster spaghetti (3/5): The only real miss. Flavor was off and couldn't find any actual lobster meat, so skip this one. Chicken Milanese (5/5): Topped with an olive salad over a bed of pesto. It's simply outstanding. Acqua Pazza (5/5): Another winner The service really puts this place over the top, which is rare for a spot this busy. It makes sense for a special occasion or just a night out with a group. Bathroom review: Downstairs features a shared bathroom that's clean and stocks very nice paper towels, which is always a plus.

    Oh Capri, I really, really wanted to love you!! I'll start with the positives. Our server was fantastic! Super kind, funny, and attentive. He really made our experience so much more enjoyable. The other nice aspect of Capri is the gorgeous outdoor patio. You truly feel transported to Italy! My drink (the Sophia) was also pretty good. Unfortunately, all of the food fell incredibly flat for me. The appetizers were just fine, very unmemorable. The prosciutto & burrata was unfortunately a miss. Almost tasted like nothing, and the peaches did not add anything to the dish. The honey buns were okay. They were probably the best thing of the night. For my meal, I had the Tortellini De Mais, which was just not good at all. It had zero flavor at all, and the worst part was that it actually became SLIMY in my mouth after a couple of seconds of chewing it. How is that even possible? It just was not a good experience. It's so unfortunate because Capri is such a nice-looking restaurant, but I think they almost put too much time and attention into the optics and making it a pretty restaurant while the food is severely lacking.

A majority of the drinks were more on the savory side which was very interesting like "may all your bacon burn" with bacon bites at the top of the drink. The drinks my friend had were all stunning with the use of egg yolk to elevate the drink. We ended the evening by walking over to Bow Market and trying Viet Citron which was so DANG GOOD my gosh.

    Saltie Girl was easily one of our favorite meals in Boston…read more We had heard so much about Saltie Girl and knew how popular it was, so we made sure to get a reservation. Even going in the middle of the week, almost every normal lunch time slot was already booked. We managed to snag a 2:45 PM reservation, and when we arrived, it was VERY clear why reservations are a good idea. The place was still packed! The outdoor patio was completely full, but luckily we had booked indoor seating. Honestly, it worked out perfectly. We got to enjoy the beautiful interior and restaurant atmosphere while escaping the Boston humidity. We were warmly greeted and seated right away. Service throughout our meal was friendly, quick, and attentive, especially considering how busy they were. The menu is fairly small, but there was still so much we wanted to try. We started with the Hamachi Tartare, made with yuzu leche de tigre, serrano, Sweety Drop peppers, and macadamia nuts. This was such a refreshing start. Bright, citrusy, slightly spicy, and full of different textures without overpowering the hamachi. Of course, we HAD to order the famous New England Lobster Roll. We opted for the cold version, and it absolutely lived up to our expectations. There was plenty of lobster, and the flavor was fresh and clean without being overly dressed. Definitely one of my favorite lobster rolls from our Boston trip. The Jonah Crab Carbonara was another standout. Spaghetti with crab, corn, chanterelles, pecorino, and preserved lemon made for such an interesting combination. It was rich and comforting, but the preserved lemon helped brighten everything up so it didn't feel too heavy. My partner ordered the Saltie Girl Clam Chowder, made with potatoes, celery, bacon, and fried clams. He could NOT stop talking about it afterward. Out of all the chowders he tried during our trip, this was his favorite. It clearly left an impression because he was still bringing it up later in the trip! Even the warm house-made artisanal bread with sea salt butter deserves a mention. Sometimes bread and butter is just bread and butter...but this was absolutely worth ordering. And because we were in Boston, there was no way we were skipping the freshly shucked oysters. We tried the Unicorn Pink from Damariscotta, Maine, which was medium-large, deep and meaty with a mineral finish. The Rocky Nook from Kingston, Massachusetts was much larger, with a medium brine, silky texture, and buttery-sweet finish. Lastly, the Paine's Creek from Brewster, Massachusetts was smaller with a clean brine and a really nice sweet citrus finish. Trying all three side by side was such a fun way to taste how different each oyster could be. For drinks, we kept things simple with a pint of beer and their Frosé Spritz, which was especially refreshing on a warm and humid afternoon. From start to finish, everything we ordered was delicious. There really wasn't a dish we regretted ordering. If I had to pick the most memorable items, it would be the cold lobster roll for me and the clam chowder for my partner. Those were the dishes we were still talking about afterward. The only downside is that Saltie Girl is clearly very popular, so getting a prime reservation can be difficult. The menu is also on the smaller side, so if you're looking for a massive seafood menu with endless choices, this isn't really that kind of restaurant. But what they do offer feels intentional and very well executed.

In reality, the accommodation was inadequate and, at times, unacceptable. While the rest of us were served scones, my stepdaughter was given cut fruit in their place, and told that was all they had to accommodate.The dessert course consisted of what appeared to be basic gluten-free cookies, misrepresented as something more gourmet - egg nog cookies??? This lack of preparation was both disappointing, upsetting and avoidable. The broader experience was equally concerning. We were subjected to an unsolicited and uncomfortable "lesson" on tea service, which detracted from what should have been a relaxed and celebratory occasion. While trying to enjoy the time with the girls, being a lifelong tea drinker and someone who has been to many times at your establishment and its various incarnations, this is something I have never experienced. The food quality was poor (scones were clearly reheated and stuck to the cloth napkin they were wrapped in), and there were notable service lapses, including being served water in a visibly shattered glass. Additionally, when hot water was added to refresh the tea, my stepdaughter's pot curdled and had to be replaced. It was especially disappointing, as I mentioned that I had stopped in and spoken with the concierge, and was assured, as they had called the kitchen while I stood there that they readily accommodated gluten-free. There are numerous places in the city that could have done this, and if you had just told me that you could not do so, I would have booked us elsewhere. I chose not to raise the multiple issues in the moment so as not to disrupt what was meant to be a special day for the girls and me. However, the total cost exceeded $500, and the experience did not come close to justifying that price point! Do not recommend.

    Such a fun experience and honestly such a deal for how many drinks and food you get! Definitely…read moreneed reservations, even on a weekday. You have to enter the building with a small fox picture, go down a set of stairs and check in at the counter of said restaurant before they lead you into the back where the speakeasy is. The menu is "set" in that they have a particular cuisine focus for the night and the four food dishes are predetermined as well as the first drink. That being said, you get to order three more drinks from their cocktail menu that range from lighter to more spirit forward, ending with more dessert type cocktails. All the drink flavors were so unique and a fun twist. The food was actually very substantial. Good flavors as well. Our favorite dishes were the lamb cigars (large egg roll shape with eggplant and spices) and the whole branzino. Everything was good though. Service was a very friendly and they were open about the fact that if you didn't like a drink they'd make you another one.

    Man I love this place…read more Reservations are a must and it is a little tricky to find. Look for the fox on the outside door and go downstairs. We sat at the bar and Ada was our bartender. She was great! Really enjoyed talking with her and she had great drinks recommendations. The food was delicious and very unique which was refreshing. Its a 2 hour experience with 4 drinks, 3 food courses and a dessert. You definitely wont be hungry after. Highly recommend for a date night.
