capriccio cafe

bestitalianin connecticut, by far. cappriccio is easily the bestitalianfood in connecticut & probably better than most in italy!! it's a true cafe, come with your family & friends and enjoy wonderful food & a lively atmosphere. there's nothing better than enjoying a nice summer night at cappricio!!

you can tell when the weather is nice again because capriccio café on bedford street in stamford is poppin'! people sitting outside buzzing with conversation, enjoying some niceitalianfood and wine, relaxing, and people watching. yeah, seeing the crowded outdoor dining on bedford street is a way better indicator of spring and summer than weather.com . after we got to check out zaza with nick racanelli jr., we were jonesin' for some food. capriccio café has always been a nice go-to spot for dependable food in a nice atmosphere, so we were down to enjoy the beautiful night. we started with one of our favorites, the antipasto misto. a nice mixture (misto) of prosciutto, dry sausage, bresaola , speck , parmigiano, arugula, olives, and roasted peppers that's big enough to share with two people. our favorite thing to do is take little bits of meat and cheese then stack that on the fork with the olive or the roasted peppers, then take a sip of wine. for our meals, kristien had the gravina

this place is not good at all!! i ordered spaghetti al pomodoro and the pasta was overcooked and cut up. realitalianspaghetti is never over cooked or cut up into pieces. the sauce was nasty and tasteless as well. i also tried the ice creamand it was at best mediocre.

big bummer. all my friends rave about it, stopped by for lunch, $10+ for a beer and a grilled cheese with ham, one slice of cheese and one slice of ham on a plate...thats it. maybe its better for dinner but for me its just an over priced diner, make thatitaliandiner
