Me and my wife have been coming here since we moved to Plainfield in 2018 and it has never disappointed. Today we came for our 9th wedding anniversary and did not make an appointment we said we would wait the 20 minutes because we love the food so much. While we waited we talked with the host who ended up being the owner and chef. We explained that it was our anniversary and that we love the food at Capri. He said he would do his best to get us seated ASAP and we thanked him. Two minutes later he treated us to 2 glasses of complimentary wine while we waited and shared some of the history about the restaurant. We were seated in shorter than expected wait and were waited on by very friendly and attentive staff. We had the bra joule for an appetizer and it was the best we have ever tasted. My lamb was everything I could ask for and my wife's chicken vessuzio as always tasted like heaven. If I had one recommendation it would be to make Capri Sogno a must to experience the atmosphere and amazing food!! read more

I was in the Plainfield, IL area for business and came across Capri Sogno, which turned out to be a GREAT find! Cold and rainy night that screamed comfort food and their linguine and clams hit the mark. I started with the obligatory Caesar salad, which was great, followed by the pasta and it was perfect. I did make one modification...I like a spicy red sauce so I subbed that over the traditional white wine sauce and it was awesome. Didn't have a drink but sat at the bar as I was dining alone and chatted with the bartender who was great, and I have to give a shout out to the server who stopped by and put the idea of the spicy red sauce in my head. Thanks Capri team...Great dinner in a great restaurant in what looked like a cool downtown area of Plainfield. A definite win and this would be on a rotation if I lived in the area! read more

Here's a polished Yelp-style review based on what you shared--natural, enthusiastic, and 5-star worthy: Capri absolutely deserves 5 stars. Everything about our experience was fantastic. The food was incredibly delicious, especially the seafood. I had the octopus and grilled calamari, and both were cooked perfectly and full of flavor. I also had a cocktail that was excellent. The service really stood out -- the staff was friendly, attentive, and everything came out very timely. The atmosphere is nice and intimate, which made it perfect for a relaxed evening out. On top of that, it's not overly pricey for the quality you get, and the desserts were truly to die for. I would definitely recommend Capri and can't wait to go back! read more

The service here makes you feel like family and the dishes are always on point. The chicken Vesuvio is worth the wait. It's tender and perfectly seasoned. And don't forget to grab a tarty and sweet lemon martini! read more

This was my first visit & I ordered takeout (what had attracted me was the fact that they make their own pasta!) I was so impressed with the taste of the food that I actually called them to compliment the chef for me! The food was perfect (obviously made with love,) the serving was large enough for 2 meals with a great price & (walking into the establishment,) I noticed the ambience was relaxing, it was impeccably clean & the staff was friendly & welcoming! I highly recommend this restaurant & I definitely will return (for both dining there as well as take out!) Also, parking was easy. The prices are comparable to chain restaurants that offer less food. The real question is "do you want a meal or an experience?" read more

Capri Songo is fantastic!!!!!! The owner/chef Rob is very attentive and welcoming. The staff is excellent!!! Now on to the food.... Remarkable!!! Rob and staff really bring it. I have a lot of favorites from Eggplant Parm, Pasta Alla Mamma. Rigatoni Vita Mia, Rigatoni Di Casa (Vodka Sauce), The seafood platter, The Clams are mouthwatering, Baccala Al' Italiana (hubby's favorite) to my Rigatoni Arrabiata!!!! YOU CAN'T GO WRONG!!! I Recommend you get there soon....RUN Don't Walk!!! (Oh and the Wine's and Martini's .... Top Notch) Deb and Sal Bruno... Approved read more

Nice cozy setting. Excellent wait staff. Easy to have conversations at the table. Good pours of wine. Upstairs dining room was cooler than i expected! The food. It was solid. I don't know what I ordered but I know I didn't have leftovers. A solid meal priced as expected for some good ambiance, service and meal read more

Went here for the first time and had a party of 6. We had a wonderful meal & experience! Truly remarkable service from Vincent! We had the minestrone soup which was very good! Very light...a tad bland but nothing a little Parmesan cheese couldn't remedy. We also had the Caesar salad with delicious dressing, yummy homemade rigatoni vodka with sausage, & cheese ravioli with marinara. Marinara could've been a bit more flavorful & less acidic. It was a bit boring, too...the butter cake was too die for! Also, we really enjoyed the tiramisu & crème brûlée! Can't wait to return! read more

This is such a great spot, I love coming here in the winter especially. We sat at the bar and Larry was our server/bartender. He was attentive, friendly, and hospitable. The food, service, and atmosphere is great. read more

Tried Capri Sogno on a whim to try something new!! Best decision ever!! Atmosphere is cozy, intimate, sophisticated- beautiful classic huge bar downstairs. Service was thoughtful, friendly, attentive. The food was amazing-"the best lasagna and vodka sauce I've ever had" said my husband who has had more lasagna than any one person should ever have! Also he ordered two entrees as he couldn't decide! The chicken Vesuvio was delicious-the sauce rich and flavorful. Will be back and will bring friends!!! read more

Ugh!! I usually love this place but tonight was total disappointment. As a busy mom with three Littles date nights are so hard to come by. Came here for a very early New Year's Eve dinner after over a year of being able to come back and it was awful. We were completely rushed through our whole meal and my husband and I both had the same thought on our dishes which we chose from a pre set menu- this was made ahead of time and reheated. Besides the wine it was blah. read more

Capri Sogno is delicious warm and inviting! The staff is top notch! The food is so authentic and delicious. Larry the bartender is outstanding at making drinks! We love to try new drinks and love the ones on the menu but Larry has made special off menu drinks at our request as well as made delicious suggestions and new drinks to try! Larry is a master behind the bar acting as both bartender and waiter. Even when the bar is completely full he sees that all guests both at the bar and tables are quickly attended to. Capri has become like home to us when we are in Plainfield! read more

Went in for a quick meal and decided to sit at the bar. Larry the bartender is the most intoxicating man I have ever met and made our evening enjoyable. I wasn't sure what I wanted to drink and he made something special from what I described I like. I would highly recommend not only to come for the food but the attentive bartender with the good drinks... read more

The handmade pasta was super thick and delicious. Caesar salad tasted more like a creamy Italian dressing. The breading on the calamari was so flavorful and crisp. The calamari meat parts were on the thin side so the crispy breading made up for it. There was a wait for a table on the main floor but we got full service at the bar upstairs. The prices were reasonable and service was great. read more

We moved to Plainfield 4 years ago. Every time we drive through town we say we have to try Capri. FINALLY, we tried it tonight with our friends. First visit for all of us. I LOVED the atmosphere in the restaurant and more importantly the not only had drambuie at the bar, the bartender made an excellent rusty nail, my husband's favorite cocktail. I didn't care for the merlot I ordered. Kate substituted an old fashion, much better, My lemon chicken & my husbands eggplant parmigiano were very good. Such a wonderful atmosphere to celebrate Christmas with our friends. Can't wait to go back. read more

So we just spent over 200 dollars then they choose to call the police on us 57 year old lesbians for apparently being offensive we were told. The owners are discriminatory towards gay people. The owner put his hand on me and then I shoved him told him not to touch me and he proceeds to call the police. We had to sign a notice of trespassing warning they actually called the police on us! I was beside my self. If this is the type of establishment you want to patronize I would highly recommend you don't it was so degrading the way we were treated. read more

We made reservations here for Christmas Eve dinner at 6pm. We arrived at 5:45 and were forced to wait outside in the cold for an hour because our table wasn't ready yet. We eventually gave up and went somewhere else. Very poor management and communication. Many others were in the same boat and we were given no information as to why things were taking so long. My family and I were very disappointed that our Christmas Eve went so poorly. read more

Excellent food and service. Love the pasta dishes and the Caesar salad. The best Italian in the area.

We were blown away by our dining experience at Capri! My husband and I went out to eat last weekend and the experience was as memorable because of the delicious food that we ate, but also because of the top-tier service provided to us by our waitress Monika. My husband had the Pollo Parmigiana, and I had the Vitello Limone. Growing up in an Italian household, I am very familiar with the smells, taste, and textures that Italian food presents. My dish was delicious, and my husband wanted to order a second round to take home. Like most restaurants on the weekend they were extremely busy, but not once did we ever feel like we weren't being taken care of. Our waitress was extremely knowledgeable of the menu, attentive to our requests, and honestly made the experience at Capri's. We will most definitely be returning back again soon! read more

Capri Sogno in Plainfield is our go-to Italian Restaurant, and we come in from Naperville to just to go. Any family special occasion, larger work groups, or just a nice date night. Tony, our server, is like an old friend who greets you warmly and makes you feel special the minute you walk in. Our food is always great. The chicken and eggplant parmesan are top-notch. The sausage appetizer and the light-battered, tender calamari reminds me of my Italian vacation. I wish I could remember the name of each pasta dish I've tried, so I could recommend them to you. You'll have to try for yourself. We love this restaurant, and our kids usually ask us to bring home a meal or two for them. read more

Capri is always excellent. The food and service are consistently wonderful, and Tony is the best! One of my favorite restaurants. read more

The food...the service...you want to feel like you're in Italy? Then Capri Sogno in Plainfield is it! From the moment you walk in, you are immersed in the authentic Italian restaurant ambiance. Larry behind the bar is a true professional and will get your experience started so well, you might not want to leave the bar for your table (we usually don't). But if you do grab a table, you can trust Tony to take care of you, another real professional and true gem. These guys take customer service to a whole new level. The food...well it speaks for itself. The owner Roberto is there everyday making sure everything is perfect. When he's not in the kitchen, he's checking on the customers in the restaurant to make sure everyone is happy (never heard a bad word yet in my 10 years of dining there). And they have specials everyday, which are always to die for. Tonigh, my husband had the Ossobuco and it was outstanding. But, then again, everything is. If you want real authentic Italian food and a truly memorable experience, Capri Sogno is it. read more

Amazing entrees and appetizer's! Service was excellent as well. A hidden gem great place I highly recommend

Best traditional Italian food in the area! My husband and I have lived close for a little over a year and finally made it here for the first time. We went to celebrate his birthday, hoping for some heart warming, authentic Italian food and we got exactly what we were looking for. The interior is dimly lit, with pretty chandeliers and intimate seating. We started with wine & complimentary bread and their roasted red pepper oil- YUM. We asked for extra oil because it was so good. I do wish the bread was served warm but still a delicious combination nonetheless. Our waitress told us about the specials and the braciole sounded too good to pass up and I'm glad we didn't. It was one of the most tender meat dishes I've ever had. So flavorful and hearty. We then split the tortellini with prosciutto, peas & mushrooms and their vodka rigatoni. Both were phenomenal. The tortellini was creamy and rich. Vodka sauce was silky and cheesy. Both pastas cooked to perfection (al dente). I absolutely loved the large rigatoni noodles. The best part of our night was when the chef (or I'm assuming maybe owner?) came around to ask us how everything was. It really gives you a warm, family owned feel. We had to try the tiramisu & the cannoli. Both were nothing short of incredible. My only complaint is that while our server was so sweet and attentive, she came around about once every 6-8 minutes. I appreciate being checked up on, but that often made us feel pretty rushed. I get they probably want to turn tables over to get people in and out but I just wished I didn't feel like that was obvious. Regardless, we had an awesome time and can't wait to come back!!! read more

Dinner for a special occasion. This area is extremely busy so parking is a little tough but manageable. For a Friday night at 6:45 their was no wait. Place has a cool ambiance. We were seated upstairs. It's was kind of dark so it was alittle hard to read the menu. Katie our server was very polite and did an excellent job with explaining everything and serving us. We started out with bread and a side of red pepper in olive oil bread dip. I had a glass of the House Chianti it was great. Our appetizer the Calamari Fritti with the red sauce was very good. FYI there serving are pretty big. We had the Salmon special and the Piatti Di Mar. Both were excellent and well prepared. Great presentation and very good flavor. We didn't have room for desert. Will definitely recommend and will come again. read more

My wife and I enjoy going to this restaurant for many reasons. Their cocktails are well crafted and delicious. The service is impeccable with servers who are attentive, courteous and respectful. But, very specifically, we go for the Sea Bass. It's served in a bed of sautéed spinach in a pool of lemon butter sauce. This dish is to die for. My wife enjoys the lasagna. It's rich, cheesy and very flavorful smothered with a delicious bolognese sauce. The restaurant is quite small, but very intimate and welcoming. We highly recommend restaurant. read more

I would like to thank Larry for being the best and most professional bartender I've ever experienced. Also i would like to shout out Roberto for checking on us to make sure the food was up to standard (it definitely was, don't worry). The scenery we experience was beautiful and we wouldn't trade it for the world. I will gladly drive 3 hours (1 way) to experience this place again. Thank you Capri! read more

Been here several times and highly recommend. As accommodating as you could ask for. Dinner on the patio, everyone loved their selections. Excellent wait staff. read more

Let me say that the service was great and I cashed tip well but the interim manager is a dick i will never recommend this place as a local place; now if you want a nice place to chill with a significant other the foods good , management can take a class but eh go somewhere else a drive to Chicago maybe a better option read more

Great food and service. We love to visit them , Mentor was our server and he did amazing work . We will be back

We went on a Sunday and reserved the wine room. Our server, Ashley, was amazing! She was so attentive and made our experience so much better! The food, drinks and dessert were great!

Everything is outstanding here food service ambience. One of the best Italian places I've ever been to outside of Italy.

Food was good/ok. Service was not good. Never brought bread even though we asked. Water glasses were never refilled even though we asked. Wine selection was above average. Ambiance was nice. Spent over $300 for 4 people which included app, alcohol and dessert. Too expensive for quality and quantity. Many better restaurant choices in the area. Glad I tried it but won't go back. read more

Great food!! My new special dinner place. Staff is friendly and the restaurant is cozy and beautiful.

We have been to Capri several times over the past few weeks after being away for the winter. We always try different appetizers and entree's and are never disappointed. Quality food with very nice presentations. Several long time servers on staff which makes for a great overall dining experience. Capri never disappoints!! read more
