I couldn't have picked a better place to host a birthday dinner. Alessandro and his team were incredible, as well as the food and drinks. They were very accommodating as well as gave some recommendations for delicious appetizers to share for 10 people. I had the fettuccini with mushrooms which was out of this world good. I highly recommend Mr. Capri for a group dinner, or even just having a bowl of pasta and a good glass of wine by yourself!

THE BEST DINING EXPERIENCE! Hands down one of the best dining experiences I have ever had & i do not say that lightly. The owner Alessandro, our waitress Emily, one of the servers Ash they were impeccable. They checked on us consistently and made us feel so catered to and welcomed like we were at home. The restaurant is beautiful and homey. The staff is kind and friendly. And of-course we came to eat and the food was 10/10 AMAZING!! Everything we ordered, the plates were left empty. Everything was fresh, seasoned perfectly, and the portions were great. The dessert was amazing as well, not heavy, and refreshing. The owner went out of his way to make this a great experience and we are so grateful. I will definitely make this our spot when we come to NYC and you should too! I cant say enough about how great the experience was and how great this restaurant is.

I don't typically write reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience at this amazing spot. The food was absolutely impeccable, and the service was top-notch. I had the Calamarata allo Scoglio, and it was a true standout—perfectly authentic Italian flavors. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving genuine Italian cuisine!

Really cute place with good service and good food. We came here by chance after happy hour nearby and were impressed. Our server was kind and attentive. She helped with recommendations and they took dietary restrictions and allergies seriously. The lemon risotto with shrimp was fantastic. Friends also really enjoyed their pastas. Drinks and wine were really good, not bad prices for the neighborhood. We’ll be back again to try the rest of the menu.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Mr Capri, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The highlight of my meal was definitely the arancini—crispy on the outside and bursting with flavor. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients, and they’re fried to perfection. What really made the visit special, though, was the warm hospitality. The owner was incredibly welcoming and took the time to check in with guests, making everyone feel at home. Our server was equally delightful—attentive without being overbearing, and she made great recommendations. The overall atmosphere was cozy and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a casual meal or special night out. I’ll definitely be back for more arancini (and to try some of their other dishes). Highly recommend!
