Great little diner. Excellent food and service. Definitely recommend. Yelp shouldn't make a minimum number of characters to post. Lol read more

This place has really slipped. Used to be a solid place to get a proper breakfast. Not anymore. The waiter messed up my simple order and brought be a totally different dish. He offered to bring out the correct order, but I passed. A very little portion of scrambled eggs that were not real warm. Yuck! You can see the cooks and others that work the back of house. They had clothes on that look like they have not been washed in sometime. Makes one question what else is not real clean in the restaurant. read more

Great food quality and value for the money. Very busy place but service is great and friendly

Middle of the road all around... Pros - Fast phone order, easy parking, fair price and good packaging and food hot. . Cons - I ordered a sandwich to-go, and had to walk to the end of the bar and disturb a patron to sign my credit card bill. Not sure why they didn't just ring me up at the register, where there was actually space for the transaction. Sandwich was half empty and sloppily made, falling apart. . Meh - Food tasted fine, but not outstanding and employees did their job, but not overly friendly. . Conclusion - Would I return? Yeah, I guess maybe if I was in the area, but I wouldn't go out of my way. read more

If you love breakfast (I do), this place scratches the itch every time. They nail the classics. Hash browns are on point. Wait staff is constantly moving and they would like you to know what you want. No attitude but they are fire. Biscuits and gravy with the additions is the way to go. read more

Loved Capri, great local diner in the west end of Boise . 3 words. Biscuits and Gravy

Talk about old school!!! Rudy the Rooster who is on top of the business sign came from another diner from the '60s that closed down. Rudy needed a new home and owner Nick West took him to the top of the sign 8 years ago. Rudy had been shot twice, so the entry and exit wounds had to be fixed. Welcome to Idaho. Inside the building, wait staff who are incredibly pleasant and efficient will take care of you. How many decades they have been there is a secret. The best damn people in the business. The banquettes are really tired. The seat cushions are lumpy and compressed - the seat backs rock when another patron sits behind you. More of the charm of Capri. If it keeps the tattooed, blue and pink hair, body pierced crowd out, then it appears to be working. This is a place that your parents took you to for biscuits & gravy. No kale or sprouts in this building. Speaking of which, check out the photos of the food in the review. Plenty of free parking as it is connected to a motel. This is a huge advantage in a downtown Boise which does not give a damn about cars and parking woes as they tear down more & more buildings and parking lots to create the next generation of tenement (ghetto) apartments. What are the criteria for a great old school coffee shop? Great skilled table service, fast kitchen and plenty of tasty food. The ambiance scores and the cutesy scores that Gen X, Y, Z and Millennials always whine about are not needed here. We had the open-faced beef sandwich covered with mashed potatoes and brown gravy along with a Rueben rye sandwich and a Bloody Mary. Where else can you get this combination of rib-sticking food? There was a side green salad involved as a nod to healthy living. Would we go back? Hell yes. If you are offended that this restaurant does not have a Drag Queen Brunch or that the menu does not have fava beans with goat cheese or rainbow pasta salad with tahini-sesame dressing, then you need to get to another part of Boise or even Portland to eat. read more

Ordered the biscuits and gravy. One biscuit with no sides was $9 and it was terrible. I took two bites total. It tasted like it was just poured from a can. The biscuit was just ok, but the gravy was horrible. Extremely disappointed. 0/10 do NOT recommend read more

Capri Restaurant - Bacon and cheese omelette with a side of hashbrowns and country gravy...delish. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Boise, Idaho

Great food (especially huckleberry pancakes), no wait to be seated and VERY nice waitress!

My dad and I went in for a late Friday brunch, we were greeted immediately by a very friendly waitress. My coffee was kept hot and fresh. Food came out quickly and as ordered. The only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is the sausage gravy was quite bland. read more

Tried Capri for breakfast this morning. I would say that this place is a solid 3, which is very good by my standards. Had the biscuits and gravy with Bacon. Also tried a Maple bacon cinnamon roll as well. Let's just say that the food was very good and served quickly. Big portions too! Our server was very attentive, always coming by with more coffee. The restaurant is clean and comfortable, but small so you may need to wait a bit for a table to open up. Overall good place, would definitely go back. read more

Peaches and Yolibeth are two incredibly sweet souls. The service was quick and efficient, the portions were large despite affordable prices. The food was absolutely amazing and the whole experience was great. I am 100% coming back next time I'm in town, the diner is such a cozy place to get some breakfast read more

Checked out the Capri today for brunch. Man, was this place crazy busy! Walking into this joint was like walking back in time. Everything was old school. From the decor to seating, everything was vintage. It's a smaller venue so when it's packed like it was today, you're waiting for a bit! We ended up sitting at counter and it was pretty chill. There were a lot of bussers there that helped with drinks and set up. They got us our drinks quickly. They were all nice and helpful. Our server did take a minute to get to us. It was pure chaos there with a full house of guests. It was all good though, we were there to enjoy the moment. Today we ordered the one biscuit special, the bandit breakfast sandwich and a side of cowboy potatoes. The biscuit was hearty and fluffy. It was very soft and fresh. The gravy that covered the biscuit was savory and full of sausage bits. It is very dense so I only was able to finish half of my biscuit. The bacon was a little floppy but still yummy. The cowboy potatoes were good. It's pan fried mashed potatoes with all sorts of goodness on the inside. The bandit breakfast sandwich was toasty and loaded with cheese and sausage. Toasted sourdough, melted cheese and the gooey egg in addition to the sausage made such a good breakfast sammy. If you're looking for a good food and you're not too worried about the esthetics of the restaurant, Capri is the joint to hit up! read more

My spouse has been here many times and she finally enticed me to join her. The large variety of choices on the menu make it hard to decide what to order, so I started with something a bit traditional (and my spouse joined me in the same order so we could discuss it). Very good brunch and made it clear that my normally exotic tastes would make me move to the different areas of the menu next time. Service was friendly, and it is obvious a go-to spot for many. read more

Capri Restaurant - Capri special I'd order it again - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Boise, Idaho

My car needed new brakes which take time to put on so I decided I would take a long breakfast and get some work done afterwards. Capri was close to 27th Street Auto and that is how I choose this restaurant. WOW...my breakfast was wonderful. I ordered the Veggie Hashbrowns with bacon. It was so tasty, filling, beautifully prepared, and enough I could take half home. The coffee was great. I drink mine plain so I know how good it is...smooth, just the right strength, and hot! Demma was my server. She is efficient, funny and a pleasure! Demma made sure I had coffee refills & water refills when I needed them. I think I stayed for four hours all total while I waited for my car. Working from this location was easy, I even made phone calls and was able to hear myself talk. Others know and like this restaurant. I went on a Thursday and it wasn't ever totally full from 8am-noon, but for the most part it was usually 75% full and it was obvious most were regulars. As to the Covid protocols - most everyone followed the mask wearing and social distancing. I felt safe. I plan to visit again when I am able. read more

If you want to step back in time and visit Boise in the 50's/60's, visit the Capri. The ambience is what you come here for and the maple bacon cinnamon roll that is a table sharer and bigger than your face! You can also expect squeaky cool booths, topped off coffee, small groups of regulars, and often on the weekend, a line of brunch goers. (Yes you can get a Bloody Mary and mimosas here, whoop!) Lots of menu options most of them typical eggs, meat, and potato options. You can pay a few extra dollars for their Cowboy Potato's which are worth every penny. Breakfast is served all day but around lunch/dinner you can also find the classics like burgers, sandwiches, and meats. This is a very special place with a very special local crowd. Please love, respect and appreciate it for the gem that it is. Capri, please don't change. read more

Good dinner breakfast if that's what you're looking for. Love the atmosphere here. Feels like you're stepping back in time a bit. Staff was friendly and quick. Wish we had tried it a long time ago. Great neighborhood spot for the west end. read more

The food was REALLY good and the price was even better. The waitress was very nice with a sweet accent. The 1st waitress that brought over the drinks and menu decided to put her hands all over the lip of our drinks. I almost sent the drinks back. Maybe next time use a tray to carry the drinks. The last thing was all those flies, I know the climate brings millions of flies, but dam. I do recommend the french toast special. Very yummy read more

What happens when your flight is delayed by 3+ hours and you don't want to go home?! You feed your cravings and treat yourself to breakfast! Capri is a ways from the Boise Airport but worth the time if you're in the mood for a greasy, old-fashioned diner meal. This is the original location. You can't miss the building. On top of the sign sits a big old rooster overlooking the cityscape. A large poster on the awning reads "Famous Biscuits and Gravy," so naturally that's what I ordered the moment I sat at the bar. And yes, you gotta get it Loaded (fresh baked buttermilk biscuits, country sausage gravy, topped with crispy bacon, fresh cut green onions and cheddar cheese, $8.95/half order). The food came out super quick - not that B&G ever takes long. The smell of bacon and hot gravy had my mouth watering the second it was placed in front of me. There was so much gravy. Personally, I think B&G should be more G&B. There was a generous amount of chopped bacon, which made up for the insane lack of sausage in the gravy. I wish there was a little more cheese, with how much was on my plate I wouldn't have noticed if it was there or not. The green onions were a delicious addition, albeit a bit strong, so be prepared and okay for onion breath the rest of the day. Generous portion sizes, too. I ended eating half my plate and taking the rest to my husband at home. The service was excellent. When I eat outside alone I like to keep to myself by reading articles on my phone and the waitstaff understood. Since I was sitting at the bar they were right there, but never once bothered me. I was in and out of Capri within 15 minutes. 10/10 would recommend and consider returning for a classic diner experience. read more

Not sure why this place is so busy, maybe because it's Sunday. Walked in and a server said yes you can sit there, how many? I said 2. She ignored us from there on, took the order at the table right next us who walked in after us, after waiting almost 10 minutes for someone to take our order the hostess came and took it. 4 more tables after us got their food before us. After waiting and waiting for our food it came like warm, I asked for cottage cheese in place of hash browns, got hash browns. Won't be back! read more

Capri Restaurant - people sitting at the bar - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Boise, Idaho

Best biscuits and gravy in the United States, hands-down. This is a popular breakfast/lunch place located in Boise, Idaho. A smaller diner, typically with a small wait, but absolutely worth it. The biscuits and gravy are my go to and whenever I'm in town this is my go-to for breakfast. The service is amazing, they are always hustling as they are always busy. This restaurant is located in the parking lot of a local hotel, so there is lots of parking available. read more

The squad and I, lately, have been trying new breakfast places every Sunday morning. This past week, we tried, Capri's If you love olllllllllld school diners/cafes, you'll LOVE this place. It's crazy old school...which I LOVE! These places almost always have better food than national chains. Scratch that, they ALWAYS have better food. Denny's, IHOP, and others...no thanks! Gimme a homey little old diner like this any day! This place didn't disappoint at all. Although, I ordered my usual...Belgian waffle and I think it was a tad overdone or it sat on the counter for a hot minute before being brought over. Either way, it was still good, just a little hard is all lol. All my friends enjoyed their breakfasts. None of us had any real complaints about this place. I gave it 4 stars because for such an old place, I didn't expect the prices to be as high as they were. It's in the downtown area, so I know they have to charge a bit more to make their rents. I'm sure the idiots who run the city try everything to get rid of these amazing places. My waffle was like $7 bucks or some shit. Just supporting these old places tho, means so much to me. Boise is quickly becoming a city where they destroy all the history of this great city, just to make room for all their tacky ass new developments. And let's face it, we all know those are uglier than shit, haha! Even if you're afraid to admit it, deep down, you know destroying historic buildings is sad and should never happen. (Cough! Californians! cough! Hahahaha!) Got sidetracked haha! Aside from the prices that are a tad higher than say...Merritts, another great old diner, Capri's is a great place. It's SO IMPORTANT that we continue to support these places. This place has been there a very long time. We need to keep it here. Don't allow some developers to come in and level that entire complex over there just to build some cookie cutter lofts!...because RIGHT across the street, that shit is happening! For those who aren't aware, especially after this review lol, I'm a HUGE advocate for saving historic buildings, homes, restaurants, etc. That's another reason why I love going to these amazing little restaurants. Ok enough rant, haha! If you've been here, you know it's fantastic. If you haven't been...go so you can ALSO see how fantastic it is! Cindy was our waitress. Old school type of waitress. Super sassy. I loved her! Thanks everyone!! Cheers! read more
