 We went out for a family dinner, the vibe was phenomenal. The service was great and the food was good. It was exactly what we expected. Will definitely be back. Absolutely loved the views as well. We had a table outside, it was a little chilly, but well worth it.

I have never had a bad meal at Cafe Capriccio and last night was no exception! I absolutely love the Eggplant with Four Cheeses and always get that as my appetizer. One of these days I will have to try a different appetizer I suppose (nah). I got the Rapini & Sausage for my entree and was happy to bring home enough for dinner tonight too! We did not get dessert but I was tempted by several of the options. Once again an excellent meal!

We celebrated our first wedding anniversary at 677 Prime, and it was everything we could have hoped for! The tomahawk steak, creamed spinach, and asparagus were phenomenal, the Frenchy’s cocktails were delicious, and the crème brûlée was heavenly! The atmosphere was beautiful and lively, yet comfortable for conversation. Our server, Brendan, was truly 1000/10! Warm, attentive without being overbearing, and incredibly thoughtful. He made us feel genuinely special, turning an already wonderful dinner into a beautiful memory of our first year of marriage. An unforgettable anniversary experience worth every penny. We can’t wait to return!

We sat by the fireplace at the front of the restaurant by the live music - such a great spot! Ordered Brussels sprouts, scallops, mac and cheese, mushroom risotto and the NY strip — everything was delicious and the two mocktails we had were so good! Jonathan was our server and he was wonderful, super nice, efficient, and helpful.

    Absolutely amazing dinner this week here! We all had the restaurant week option for the prix-fixe and it was a great value with well rounded choices and such a fun theme of Wicked! Service was impeccable. The food was delicious and definitely menu choice that you just won't see anywhere else!

    Excellent food, service. It is a basic Italian restaurant that does what it is supposed to do. I’m from out of town but I’m sure the locals love it.

    The pop-up brunch venue was a large tent behind the historic mansion but it was a nice day so it was enjoyable. My croque monsieur and fries were delicious and the coffee was excellent. I would like to have dinner inside next should there be an event like that.
