Great Food! Great Ambience! Great Service!
by Cynthia Trump
I've been to Isle of Capri several times since discovering it in May. The food here is incredible. Their staff is always polite and extremely professional. I, personally, love the greeting Jane (the owner) gives to each and every client. She's always sure to walk by every table and engage her patrons. Isle of Capri is a MUST in NYC.
- Pros: Best Italian Food on the UES

Excellent Evening Out
by pdub22
My husband and I celebrated out 10-year anniversary here last weekend and had a fabulous evening. The wine was reasonably priced as was the splendid food. We loved the choices and devoured everthing on our plates. The profiteroles are to die for, and a must to end the meal. Ciao Bella!
- Pros: Warm decor, friendly staff, and outstanding food
