    My beautiful, delicious, and larger than expected Greek salad.
    Kathie C.

    My husband and I ate here in 2021 but haven't been back to the area since then. I have to admit, I had forgotten how truly amazing this little Italian restaurant is. It's simple and unpretentious - but wow is it Italian! From the kind men behind the counter, to the music, to the menu. We ordered weirdly. I'll admit it. I ordered French fries and a Greek salad. My husband ordered the ravioli with pink sauce. All this was to share as we've done for more than 50 years. I have this thing with fries. If they are hot - I love them. If served any other way - eh, not a fan. We'll let me tell you - I was served the hottest, freshest, best BASKET of fries I've ever had in my entire life. I mean sizzlingly perfect! Then came my beautiful SMALL salad - just as perfect and just as surprising. It was bigger than expected with generous - well, generous everything. Feta - smooth and delicious. Parmesan - thinly sliced perfectly, olives, tomatoes, crispy lettuce. I was in heaven and then I tasted the ravioli! Served so hot and cooked al dente as any pasta should be. We have zero complaints and only hearty kudos for Capricio's. To be sure this is a favorite restaurant. 5 stars all the way. (The reviews says I haven't mentioned the service. Well this review wouldn't be this good without perfect service too)

    The "Special Italian " minus the mozzarella,prosciutto, fresh lettuce and oregano . I didn't want mayonnaise on it at all , ugh

    It's hit or miss here . If the owner Joe takes your order then your food will be amazing but if the older gentleman takes your order .... oh boy . I ordered a Special Italian and what I got was not what the menu said . No fresh mozzarella, no prosciutto , some old lettuce and no seasoning but the worst part was that both sides of the roll were coated in mayonnaise ! Also not stated in the menu and I despise mayo , ugh . Our Texas fries had very little bacon and no jalapenos and my boyfriend's cheesesteak had no sauce even though the man on the phone asked if we wanted it ....very disappointing meal . Thank you to the older gentleman who gave us the meal he wanted to give us and not what we ordered . This is the second time it's happened and I hate being one of those people who complains but ..... if there's a next time I'll be sure to speak to Joe .

    Chicken Parmigiana

    I suspected my teenage niece needed someone just "to talk to". I was in town and made time to ask her out on a "date". I let her pick the place, I wanted her to be comfortable. BJ's Brewhouse would not have been my first choice for a heartfelt talk but this is where she wanted to go. And you know what? Turns out it was a great place! It was a Monday night and not too crowded - we were seated and greeted immediately. I had looked ahead at the menu and saw that Monday was 1/2 off pizza night. We decided that was the way to go. The 1/2 off pizzas were the flatbreads and the large deep dish. My niece wanted to try the chicken pesto which came on flatbread. Since I am a founding member of the "never enough bread" club, I really wanted deep dish. No problem, the crust types were swapped and both of us were happy. She loved the combination of chicken, tomatoes, and mozzarella and goat cheeses on top of the pesto sauce. I wasn't a fan but I knew a pizookie was in my future. We talked and talked. The restaurant was loud enough that people wouldn't overhear our conversation yet still quiet enough that we didn't need to raise our voices to be heard. We spent a long time talking and our waitress kept our drinks full and checked back a couple of times but she didn't make us feel rushed. I don't want to forget the pizookie. A large, fresh baked cookie topped with ice cream and sauce. Totally overkill on the sweetness but, since I subscribe to the monthly newsletter of the over the top dessert club, I was right in my element. I would not have ordered it, but my niece wanted the strawberry shortcake pizookie. A hot sugar cookie, a huge scoop of vanilla ice cream, strawberry sauce and fresh strawberries turned into my new fave. It was huge. It was decadent. It was too much. It was AWESOME! We had a great talk - she got a lot off of her chest and I complained about gram and pap. We laughed. We bonded. It was the perfect evening.

    Eggplant Parmigiana Pasta
    Rachel R.

    Very low key pizza spot near the airfield but very tasty pasta! I had the eggplant parm and it came with garlic knots and a salad. Perfect take out for my hotel room while I was in town for a class. My only regret is that I don't leave nearby and couldn't save my leftovers. Nice touch with the fresh basil!

    Really good seafood fettuccine.
    KhanhMy V.

    Amazing Italian food joint. Hits the spots. We love the tomato sauce in the seafood pasta. It was one of the best seafood fettuccine I've had. My boyfriend really likes his cheese steaks. The bread was delicious. We didn't get pizza but we figured that it would be delicious considering the cheese, bread and tomato were on point in other dishes. Too bad we don't live nearby or else we will be coming back again. We had a 5 star Italian meal at a reasonable price. P. S. The extra star is for my amazing boyfriend . He was the true highlight of it all. Haha

    Eggplant Parmigiana Sub

    Don't miss out on this Italian gem in Lancaster! My son and I decided to check it out based on Yelp reviews, and we were absolutely blown away--Joe truly exceeded our high expectations! Even my son, who is notoriously picky about food, devoured the fried ravioli, chicken tenders, and his personal cheese pizza. As the sign in the window proclaims, independent pizza makers craft their pies differently than national chains, and my son wholeheartedly agrees that this is the superior option. As for me, I indulged in the eggplant parmesan sub, which was huge and delicious, but the real star of the show was the Capricio stromboli. It was simply out of this world! If I lived closer, this would undoubtedly be my go-to spot for Italian cravings. As it stands, I am going to make it a point to visit whenever I'm near Lancaster, and it's easy to see why this place has such a dedicated following. If you haven't yet had the chance to experience this incredible restaurant, you absolutely must! A huge thank you to Joe for the fantastic food and exceptionally friendly service! You won't be disappointed!

    Lancaster Brewing Company Taproom

    (401 reviews)

    $$

    We had a wonderful trip to Lancaster. I made a wish list of the "must see" locations (farm, cow,…read morecovered bridge, soft pretzel, horse & buggy, etc). Hubby wanted to visit a bar. I read the reviews for Lancaster Brewing (near a farm, cow, covered bridge, they serve pretzels, horse & buggys are nearby). When I saw that there was a bartender named Boots, I knew we had to visit. Hubby had already read about Lancaster Brewing and we were happy to visit. You can't tour the actual brewery anymore but the manger and bartenders are great about discussing the brewing process and styles. There were some interesting seasonal beers. We could have moved to a table but we enjoyed chatting with Boots. He is easy going and quite knowledgeable about everything on tap. The menu has sandwiches, pizza and pub food. My only wish is that they include fried pickles. The place is fun. The retail items are limited but you can buy a six pack for about $13 that you mix and match yourself. Growlers are also available. The place closes at 9pm, so plan accordingly if going at night.

    Lancaster Brewing Company stands out as a brewpub that balances tradition and experimentation. If…read moreyou appreciate a good stout, a bold peanut-butter beer, or just a solid beer-food night out -- it's a reliably great destination. Their stouts are indulgent and well-executed; the Fresh Roasted Peanut Butter Ale is a fun, off-beat twist that's worth a try at least once; and the food (especially the crab dip and spicy wing option with Creepin' Dog Hot Sauce) rounds it all out so the experience doesn't feel like "just beer." If I were you and planning a visit, I'd start with a flight including the Double Chocolate Milk Stout + Fresh Roasted Peanut Butter Ale, grab the crab dip and maybe some wings with Creepin' Dog sauce -- that combo sums up everything great about what Lancaster does right.
