“ Amazing owner and awesome food. The wine is great, too. Highly recommend! I will be back. ”

“ So so good! Amazing food and top notch service. Definitely adding this to my favorite restaurants to frequent. ”

“ Of course, nothing beats the old Il Capriccio with it eccentric and warm ambience, but the Il capriccio at the newer location still boasts friendly, knowledgeable servers, wonderful bartenders, and the incomparable Jan for wine selection. And the food and drink are still very good. I prefer the appetizers, salads and pasta to the entrees. The liver pate with cornichons and balsamic caramelized onion was out of this world - perfectly smooth silky texture with perfectly pronounced warm spices. The gem lettuce Caesar salad with smoked blue fish was a stroke of genius, the blue fish elevating a Caesar salad to something different and very tasty. The pastas are always very well made and perfectly cooked, and the ragu sauces tend to be very good. While not on the menu, the Basque cake is one of the best desserts I have ever had - a creamy cake with a beautifully browned top served with blueberry compote was savory, light, elegant - just sublime. Although not as special as the old bar with it cozy feel and the 'parrot light' light at the end of the bar, it's still the best seat in the house. The bartenders make mighty cocktails served in beautiful, elegant glassware. Il Capriccio is still a special place. ”

“ Place was great! Very very nice inside! I got a strawberry Negroni and the gnocchi with shrimp and scallops. Loved it! And for dessert we got the baked Alaska and creme brûlée. ”

“ Went to Italy recently and have found it hard to find a restaurant with decent carbonara and pasta. Well, my wife and I agreed that we may have found the closest in quality and taste at il capricio. We would go back and recommend giving this place a shot. It is a little more on the expensive side but you can clearly and easily tell it's because they use quality ingredients and everything is fresh. ”

“ Omg! The food was soon good here. This restaurant deserves a solid 5 star experience! The food was perfect in quality and perfectly portioned and balanced. The porcini soufflé was to die for! The beet salad was perfect with hazelnut crumbles. The lamb chops was perfectly medium rare and the scallops were fresh and perfectly seared on mashed potatoes parsnips! The pistachio Baked Alaska was good! It was a first class meal and my favorite Italian restaurant in Waltham. I will come here again! The service was professional and ambience was contemporary chic. I learned that this restaurant was 40 years old but this was a new location. ”

“ Well executed traditional Italian fare with fantastic service. The meat (veal, schnitzel and carpaccio) were all prepared perfectly and the accompanying flavors were unique but stayed true to the original dish. The service at il capriccio has always been fast and engaging without over-burdening. We had a table that was quite loud next to us this time, which made the atmosphere a bit underwhelming, but normally it's the perfect place for a night out. ”

“ It's the first time I visited ll Capriccio and was impressed by the quality of their food and service. We booked a table for 8 on a Monday night and were given a private room. The place was clean and the hostess was friendly. Our private room was spacious and inviting. They do have outdoor seating and it looked nice. Food was amazingly good as they used fresh and high quality ingredients. Our waitress Ann recommended the Giannone Chicken 'Schnitzel and it was one of the best chicken dishes we had tried. The chicken breast was crispy outside and moist inside. There was a fried egg on top of the chicken and the smooth buttery flavor of the egg yolk enhanced the taste of the chicken. Veal Scaloppine Valle d'Aosta was a great option for veal lover. It was tender and the Porcini Marsala sauce had a delicate flavor. Also we tried two fish dishes and they were both delicious and fresh. Our server Ann was excellent and knowledgeable about all the items on the menu. She provided good suggestions for us. Having such a great server made our experience more enjoyable. Lastly they had a few options for non alcoholic mixed beverages. So it is a really good place to bring your family and friends here. Who doesn't like having a delicious drink in a cute cocktail glass while eating a delicious dinner? I am highly recommend this place and will definitely go back. ”

“ My experience at Il Capriccio was spectacular, from the amazing food to the great service. You could definitely taste that the food was very high quality, making the prices worth it. We started off with two drinks which were refreshing. My friend got the Sangria Rossa (which was very sweet but yummy) and I got the Strawberry Negroni (which was a bit on the stronger end but still great)! The escargot was excellent. We loved the Tarragon Cream as it was very rich and flavorful. The cream sauce paired incredibly well with the escargot and the herbed polenta. The herbed polenta was a bit crispy yet soft in the middle, which was delicious. I also really liked the Gnocchi I got, which was very creative with the apples, pears, and walnuts. I do wish there was a bit more sauce, but the quality and freshness of the gnocchi really stole the show. The pappardelle was also really yummy and the rabbit didn't taste overcooked at all. To end the night, my friend and I shared a Warm Pear and Almond Tart with Prune Armagnac Ice Cream. The liquor was super strong in the ice cream but was delicious nonetheless. I loved how fresh the fruit was and it was clear that the cream was made in-house. Throughout it all, our server would check up on us, provide recommendations, and ask if we wanted more bread. The bread was great as well since it was warm and fluffy! Overall, I'm super excited to come here again. The menu changes every month but there are always a lot of creative dishes that sound delicious! ”
