Cozy Italian-Peruvian spot with standout ceviche and popular pizzas; generally warm service and fair prices, but recent inconsistency and longer waits reported after a change in ownership.
Capriccios delivers reliable neighborhood dining with strong food quality anchored by praised ceviche and generous portions, supported by friendly, attentive service. However, inconsistent execution—particularly recent reports of variable pizza dough and uneven Peruvian mains—alongside occasional long waits prevent a higher grade. The cozy Neustadt setting and fusion menu appeal to neighborhood regulars, but quality variation and operational challenges keep it competitive with, rather than ahead of, the area's better casual restaurants.
A snug neighborhood room with a mixed Italian-Peruvian menu, Capriccios draws a lively crowd from Neustadt’s bar streets. Service is often described as friendly and attentive, and plates like ceviche or seafood pasta arrive with generous portions. One diner summed it up: "Warm people, cozy space, and food that makes you linger." Recent reviews note longer waits at busy times. The cooking blends pizza, pasta, and Peruvian staples like ceviche and lomo saltado. Expect fusion comfort with bright flavors more than strict tradition; ceviche gets frequent raves while some Peruvian mains divide opinion. Pizzas were once a local favorite, though a few recent diners reported thicker, denser dough and uneven results, especially via delivery. Families should find it approachable thanks to pizza and pasta that most kids enjoy. The room is small and can get lively, so strollers and high-chairs may be tricky. For younger palates, simple pizzas or gnocchi are safer bets, while ceviche suits adventurous teens who like seafood and citrus.
