                                My husband and I enjoyed an early dinner at Capolinea before a concert at State Farm Arena, and it was the perfect start to our anniversary celebration. We chose it for its excellent online reviews and proximity to the venue — and it exceeded our expectations. We started with the Pane E Burro and the Polpetti De Capolinea, both recommended by our server and both outstanding. The chef also treated us to an amuse bouche that was simply divine. The tableside martini service by Ian was spectacular — a real highlight of the evening. Our server was exceptional throughout, and when we return, we'll definitely request him. A memorable meal and wonderful service — highly recommend for a special occasion.

                                The Skyfall cocktail was a well balanced drink with a very lovely presentation. We also ordered a Sweet Deception and added vodka, as recommended by our waiter. It was sweet and smooth, and we were pleased to see a craft ice cube in the drink as well. We ordered the Pane E Burro to start the meal. The focaccia was especially impressive and we also enjoyed the sourdough with the Calabrian chili butter. I can’t say enough good things about the Spaghettei Al Nero Di Seppia. The squid ink pasta was perfectly al dente and all seafood was cooked to perfection. The highlight of the meal was the Gnocchi Fritti. The most exquisite crunchy outer layer followed by the pillowy soft inside. We couldn’t recommend Capolinea enough!
