First visit to Capriccio in Solon, and it was a pleasant surprise…read more We tried a few different dishes, and everything was done thoughtfully and well. The eggplant parmesan appetizer was cooked just right--the eggplant itself was perfectly tender, not mushy and not underdone, which is harder to get right than it sounds. The pizza was excellent. Well-balanced toppings, and I especially enjoyed the chunks of garlic and the balsamic glaze, which added depth without overpowering the rest of the flavors. The pasta was also spot on, and the added grilled chicken was nicely prepared--well seasoned, and a good complement to the sauce rather than an afterthought. What really makes Capriccio appealing is that it's a comfortable, neighborly, casual spot, conveniently right next door to where we live--exactly the kind of place you're happy to have in your neighborhood. Special thanks to our server, Lovell, who was friendly, attentive, and helped make the evening even more enjoyable. Overall, a very solid first experience. Good execution, flavorful food, and a menu that feels familiar but done with care. We'll definitely be back to try more.

I liked the way the bacon was crumbled in many pieces on the cheese. Every time you bit down on the sandwich you were sure to get a bite of it.

I ordered to go Eggplant Parmesan, dinner for a family member. I ordered desserts to go like the cheesecake and Tiramisu. The service was excellent and the server always on time with refills or checking on us to see if we needed anything else. We went earlier so there were not to many people. The dining area is a descent size.

This time, I brought my family along for lunch, and it did not disappoint! We took advantage of their happy hour specials, which included half-off pizzas, select appetizers, and drinks. We started with the Street Corn Nachos and added grilled chicken. They were absolutely incredible--easily some of the best nachos we've ever had. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and every bite was delicious. We also ordered the whipped feta, which was simply divine and a must-try. For our entrées, one person ordered the pepperoni pizza and really enjoyed it. I had the sausage pasta, which was fresh, flavorful, and surprisingly light while still being incredibly satisfying. The third entrée was the Thai noodles , and it was another hit. Everyone commented on how fresh and well-prepared their meal was. The service, as always, was impeccable. We were greeted immediately and seated right away. What really stands out about this restaurant is the teamwork. Everyone pitches in, whether it's bringing out food, clearing plates, or noticing your water glass is getting low. It doesn't matter if they're your server or not--they make sure you're taken care of, and that level of hospitality really makes a difference. The restaurant is also spotless, and I love that the open kitchen allows you to watch the team preparing the food. It adds to the overall experience and shows how much care goes into every dish. Whether you're stopping in for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or happy hour, this place consistently delivers. Great food, outstanding service, a welcoming atmosphere, and a beautiful space make this one of my favorite restaurants in the Cleveland area. If you're visiting the Pinecrest area, do yourself a favor and make this a stop--you won't regret it!

I had ten smoked wings which they smoke in a bbq dry rub. They were browned nicely and had really good flavor as they were. They came out hot and were far better than the ones I had just yesterday at Fat Buddy's. My wings were served with generous amount ofcelery and a thicker style ranch dressing which had good flavor. On the side I had the extra hot, sauce which was Franks based and brought decent heat. I would come back for these wings. Also had an order of fries which were served as most, out of a frozen bag and deep fried. Service was exceptional and I watch as they made sure all the patrons were taken care of. Would have been a solid 5 star with better fries.since there are no half stars I leaned to the plus side for the service and wings. They were servings lots of wings! Don't be intimidated and stop on in. The wings and service are worth it.

In town for a visit to Cleveland Clinic, I came here expecting to find the benchmark for all of tacology; how all other tacos are measured. But...there was no actual Tacologist. There was no science, let alone anything that I would refer to as a benchmark. When I arrived, I was seated and noted that I was one of three active tables in the entire restaurant. It was a slow day, as it had been raining much of the day. Beside me, there was a table of five ladies that had probably enjoyed happy hour a shade too much, and a couple who appeared to be having drinks. In other words, there was no excuse for the slow service and lack of attention I received during my meal. The staff was non existent. On to the food. I had guacamole as an appetizer, however it was brought out with my main course. I was told there was a mix up due to shift change. OK...a mixup with three tables and I am the only one ordering food? For my entree, I ordered the chicken fajitas. At least they came out piping hot! The guacamole was actually quite good. In fact, I should have ordered that and called it a day. The fajitas, while hot and colorful, had absolutely no spice. It tasted like sautéed chicken with salt and pepper. No cumin, no chile, no cayenne...nothing. And there wasn't a jalapeno or lime to be seen anywhere in the entire place. Come on... Nope...this is not the benchmark. This is Mexican food with a midwestern spice profile. If the chefs get confused over one order of fajitas, they have a long way to go before they can attain the coveted title of Tacologist. Two stars are being provided because I'm in a good mood today. The lack of effort is evident in the staff and the food. It's too bad, because this place has real potential.

My uncle was staying at the VA hospital for a month this summer and was desperate to get away from hospital food and eat some yummy Mexican! I had never been to Tacologist but it is nearby the hospital and not too expensive. We had trouble finding street parking but once inside, we were dazzled by the trendy and colorful decor and were immediately seated by the hostess. I ordered the mixed steak and shriml fajitas and my uncle got the steak chimichanga entree. Each was under $20 each. For the price, we were given huge portions of slightly above average Tex-Mex food, although the meat was rough, especially the steak, which made me a little sad. The shrimp needed some tajin or something! We did enjoy kind and quick service from our young waiter, Kevin, and we were wowed by the trendy interior inside. You can get some great shots for the "gram" here! The leftovers made for a good and hearty lunch the next day. However, with so many better tex-mex (or even authentic Mexican) food in the Cleveland area, I don't think Tacologist will replace my go to for fajitas, Los Arcos.
