   Antony is the BEST. No one makes Caesars like him. Pasquale is the best chef.

   We dined at Isle of Capri for our most recent wedding anniversary. Having heard great things, we were excited to try something different other than our usual restaurants. Unfortunately, this place was a huge disappointment. The entire restaurant feels extremely small and cramped. The hostess seated the two of us in this oddly shaped, uncomfortable round booth that was big enough for at least four people. Next, they seated a family with kids directly behind us, even though the entire upper section was empty. It felt like they were right on top of us. Sadly, Isle of Capri has no soul other than playing Frank Sinatra music in the background. Every employee there seemed to be going through the motions. Our waiter provided adequate service, but he never smiled or attempted to get to know us or make small talk. I'm honestly not sure what the point is of making Caesar salad table side. Our server stared down the entire time while preparing the salad and didn't speak to us, making it very uncomfortable. He never asked where we were from or if we were celebrating a special occasion. The Caesar was ok, but didn't live up to the hype. Plus, the price is outrageous for four pieces of Romaine lettuce per plate for $30. Our entrees were actually worse. My wife had the filet. It was smothered in tasteless sauce. I had the Shrimp risotto. The dish seemed like it had been heated in a microwave, as it was steaming hot. The risotto was very buttery/oily, probably the worst risotto I've had at a restaurant. The shrimp was likely straight out of a frozen bag - definitely not fresh at all. The only decent part of the meal was the dessert - the tiramisu. Never once did the waiter or a manger stop by to ask if we were enjoying our meal. This place had the feel of a tourist trap that actually serves warmed up hotel food under the guise of authentic homemade Italian and fine dining. Sadly, that is $180 of hard-earned money we won't ever get back. We definitely won't be returning.

   The view is very nice and our server was great however this pasta is definitely not homemade as they proudly claim and I asked them if it was and they assured me it was.

   Food was ok. I found it under seasoned. Our waiter was very pleasant, but service was very slow on the night we went. Disappointed based on reviews I had read online.

   Not worth the money for their food and service. Yes it was tasty but overpriced. Also served a drink where the martini glass was broke and chards of glass were splintering. Didn’t even comp the drink. Tableside Caesar salad was good but not for $15 a person. It’s a side salad not a full salad. Definitely should not be charging that kind of price for it.

   If you want a fine dining experience at the beach, this is your place! There's a bird's eye view of the beach from every table. The vibe is definitely old school Italian and so is the food, but with a modern and seafood twist. We enjoyed seeing the Caesar salad table-side preparation at other tables! Our food was delicious and the service attentive.

   Food was mediocre at best. I knew it was an expensive restaurant to begin, but the surprise was the total unimpressive mediocrity of the food.
