Tips for a Better Visit

1

Try mash. Order the cheese mashed potatoes if you want the dish returning diners describe as Capri’s standout.

2

Expect crisp pizza. Choose Capri for a crisp thin-crust pizza rather than a soft or deep-dish style.

The Bottom Line

Capri Italian Grill is a long-established Italian restaurant in Trade Centre with a cosy, vintage dining room and a strong following among families who have been returning since the 1980s. It is a useful choice for a relaxed lunch, dinner, birthday or date-night meal, especially if pizza is the priority. The thin-crust pizza has a crisp base, and the menu’s most talked-about comfort dish is the cheese mashed potatoes.

Garlic cheesy bread, vegetarian pizza, bolognese lasagne and tiramisu also appear regularly in recommendations. Some reviews praise the pastas as much as the pizza, while others found particular dishes too salty, bland or heavily sauced, so execution may vary. Expect a distinctive Capri style rather than strictly traditional Italian cooking: one diner described the pizza as Indian-inspired, and another felt the lasagna was not a classic Bolognese version.

Service is usually described as friendly and attentive, though one visit involved slow dishes and a serious complaint that was not handled well. Portions have also been called small for the price. Reviews mention outdoor seating in cooler months and say parking fees were covered by the restaurant.
