It was a cute small place. We went early evening so it wasn't too crowded. I appreciate everything being made to order so the wait was a bit. Also they didn't have bacon for my carbonara but it was still good. The fries shrimp was also perfection.

This is our second time to Mama Capri and we have had great experiences both times with service and food. Our server last night was so kind even though they were a little short staffed. We loved the Buratta Fritta, Cacio e pepe, the trofie e pesto, and the fried zucchini side. The Tiramisu is our favorite in the city. We’ll def be back!

Food is always amazing there as is the service. Unfortunately this time around there was a hair in the dish that we didn't notice until we finished which ruined our desire to have dessert. The server was great about it though & took the item off the menu. Mistakes happen so we will go back.

We had a delicious meal here last night and I would definitely go back. We shared the Burrata appetizer and it was great - the burrata was so fresh. My husband had the Rigatoni Bolognese and I had the Spaghetti alla Nerano. We were both very happy with our choices and couldn't even finish it all bc we were so full.

Not up to the ratings. Not sure what the others had to eat but our meals were nothing to write home about. Fresh pasta was very good (which IS the italian way) but our sauces fell short. We did have a risotto which was the best meal on the table. Fried seafood app was good!

Never happens often that I get such a weird experienceOutside of Simona who is the kindest person ever, everything else in this place screams "low quality"Even a simple pasta tasted like expired food, the guanciale was burned and the taste of cheap oil permeated the whole dish.It made me very sad and I felt cheated on giving all these 5 stars reviews which I'm very curious about where they come from.I hope that this review can help the property in identifying where they want to invest. You can have something simple but at least the food should be high quality.

Cute neighborhood spot to hit your Italian cravings. Service was incredible friendly and prices are reasonable. Came here with my husband and we got the pasta special of the day with guanciale (pork cheek) which was delicious! We also got the steak with fries which was just average to me. The wine selection is great as I got a glass of a montepulciano and my husband got a barbera. The tiramisu was a highlight! You could taste that it was homemade as it had a great balance of cream, lady fingers, and coffee. It wasn't overly sweet either. Not the most mind blowing dishes I've ever had, but overall great option when you're in the mood for Italian with a welcoming ambiance.

Mid range Italian, the gluten free noodle was still crunchy, the carbonara was just a creamy pasta was little flavour and was ice cold. We were only one of two tables in the restaurant. Not sure what happened here as this place was recommended by someone who is a fan of good food. I wouldn't recommend this if you are looking for a good pasta place.

The food is excellent! The service is warm and welcoming. I love the interior. It was well thought out. I can feel the Capri vibes. Never a miss coming here!Vegetarian options: They had quite a few options for vegetarians. I can always find something on the menu

The food was amazing! From beginning to end! We had the calamari, bolognese, great service. Just flew in from Los Angeles and I was looking for Italian food and I was pleasantly surprised. Great service Simona was fabulous as a server and it's real authentic Italian cuisine. Let's not forget the dessert!

I love this place. I often come here for a late dinner after a long day of work and I never leave disappointed. The prices are fair, they have amazing dishes and great specials, and the servers are so kind and welcoming. Seems like a place that draws regulars but I've never felt like an outsider, even on my first day here. The perfect cozy Italian restaurant.Kid-friendliness: Laid back restaurant, not too hectic, and very welcoming so it would be good for kids
