Luxurious Capriccio, carved out of the cellars of a Financial District landmark, is located along the Providence Riverwalk at the corner of Dyer & Pine Streets. It has long been the capital city’s renowned mecca for candlelight sophistication and black tie service “where locals and out-of-towners are deliciously pampered.” Creative continental cuisine with a northern Italian and Mediterranean accent has earned it over 35 awards for fine dining and wines. Signature dishes include imported Dover sole, Maine lobster, prime aged steaks, native seafood, housemade pastas, and flambeed desserts. Recipient of the Wine Spectator’s Award of Excellence, its elegant lounge boasts one of America’s great Cognac collections. Open weekdays for lunch, daily for dinner. Complimentary valet parking.

    Overpriced and bad service. Got a $55 beef Wellington that was soggy and small. Not to mention it took about an hour to come out. When the prices are in this range, the service should be great, and the meal should be outstanding. This just wasn’t worth it, left the restaurant hungry and disappointed after spending a lot for 2.

    I’m so disappointed in my experience dining for the first time at Capriccio. I booked this reservation with high hopes—romantic ambiance of the main dining area, craft cocktails, table side flambé and a top-tier dining experience. From the beginning valet was unnecessarily rude, and yes, I get it—it was snowing. But that’s no excuse to act like a d***. After finally getting inside, I expected to be seated in the beautifully decorated, ambient-lit area I saw online. Instead, we were exiled to a sad, low-ceilinged backroom, lit up like a doctor’s office, featuring about four tables and some half-hearted Valentine’s Day decorations that looked like they were from the discount bin at Party City. Despite the lackluster atmosphere, our server was great—friendly, knowledgeable, and the only saving grace of this meal. I asked for the cocktail menu, and I was informed that because it was a Valentine’s Day night (again, this was February 15th), there was no cocktail menu. I was able to get a Lemon Drop because I knew the name of the drink. Then came the food. My boyfriend ordered a $60 steak medium well (yes, I know, but to each their own), and it arrived very pink—medium-rare. Kitchen also forgot his truffle fries also, which didn’t show up until he was practically done with the steak. My gnocchi? Mushy and bland. We did eat it, was not horrible but was not good. By this point, I was still holding onto hope for dessert, the main reason I came. I had my heart set on their flambé crepes—a tableside experience that should have been on their Valentine’s Day menu. Make that make sense that your signature cocktails and desserts are unavailable on a holiday. For a place that charges premium prices, I expected a premium experience. We made the best of it but spent over 300$, mostly on drinks. Instead Capriccio gave me, “we overbooked for Valentine’s and are still recovering” Would I return? Only if I sat in the main dining area and if they have their full menu.

    Our server, Nick, was amazing. It took forever to get our appetizers and our meal. Even Nick had to repeatedly apologize for the delay. Except for the oysters Rockefeller - which were amazing - the food was just okay. Not worth the price.
