It’s not going to blow your mind, although the pizza is pretty dang good. They have a lot of interesting murals on the walls and it’s got that old school Italian feel. Anyway, we were seated quickly and the service is always great. They were still pretty busy, but from what I remember during previous visits, this is kind of rare. We called ahead to make a reservation since there were 10 of us, but when we got there I was surprised with how few people were there. I was home from Nashville for a week and my family and I decided to go here on a Saturday night. Otherwise, it kinda sucked.Ĭapri is one of the more iconic restaurants in Rockford to visit. I gave it two stars because I did enjoy going back to a place of nostalgia for me. It seemed like a lot of people there were regulars so maybe that’s why so many people are giving it 5 stars? I don’t know. I really wanted to give this place a higher rating. Awkward experience and I have no desire to go back. Thankfully she promptly brought the bill and we were able to leave. When I told the woman I didn’t want a box, she gave me a dirty look and basically ruined the experience for me. I got a mini one and ate everything but two pieces. It was pretty tasteless and wasn’t anything special. I set that aside and waited for my pizza. I was scooping it off my salad to find the lettuce. We each ordered a salad and it came back loaded, I mean LOADED with a funky tasting dressing. She then directed to an open table with out menus - didn’t even bother to walk us there. When she did she told us to wait while she went to find us a table. We walked in and waited a solid 5 minutes before a woman came out to seat us.

I recently went back for lunch and wasn’t so impressed. I remember the ramp, the ugly carpeting, the giant mural on the wall, and standing on my toes of watch them work through the window in the kitchen. So I have a lot of fond memories of this place from when I was really young. I don’t know where the gluten was hidden, but I am still very ill, 15 hours later. Just to make my birthday a little worse - I was violently ill within a half our of eating. It seems pretty simple to me, if you do not have particular items on your menu, don’t publish those items on your website.

This is the second restaurant in the area that boasts a gluten free menu, with dessert, that does not have it. The server went to ask, again, and was told they don’t carry it anymore. That gluten free dessert is at least half of the reason we chose Capri. I go to order my gluten free birthday dessert - and am told she didn’t think they had anything of the sort. The main courses arrived, quickly and tasted wonderful. Before the main course, I had a small salad and my family had soup. She came back and listed a couple gluten free choices (not nearly as many as listed on their website). When I asked about the gluten free menu, she looked at me like I was crazy, and had to go ask someone. Our server was pleasant, however not educated about their gluten free selections. The staff was polite and we were seated quickly (we had a reservation). My family and I went to Capri, for my birthday, because of their published (on their web site) gluten free menu (I have Celiac). If you are considering Capri, for their gluten free menu, don’t waste your time.
