Ciao Capri - Henrico

I recently had one of the best meals in years at this restaurant! The owner even took the time to come to our table and engage in conversation with us. The food was excellent, the drinks were top-notch, and the atmosphere was lovely. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great dining experience. Food rating: 5 out of 5.

I visited this restaurant for the first time and was impressed by its cleanliness, welcoming atmosphere, and friendly staff. The staff was very welcoming and took the time to explain the menu and specials. I ordered a mocktail and was pleasantly surprised by how delicious and visually pleasing it was, despite being a non-alcoholic drink. The ravioli I ordered was flavorful, with a delicious tomato base that complemented it well. I also enjoyed chatting with some regular customers, which added to the unique experience. I would recommend making a reservation ahead of time and be sure to check out the specials menu.

Their biggest weakness is the limited menu. I had high hopes because of the small cafe atmosphere, and apparently many regulars were in the place. The staff called some of the customers by name. But the food was a disappointment. A solid three stars at best.Food: 3/5

We tried Ciao Capri on a recent visit to the area, and we were not disappointed! This is a lovely, quiet restaurant with a warm welcome and delicious food. My husband had the meatball starter and shrimp and pasta main course. He thoroughly enjoyed both dishes. I had a salad followed by the Halibut special, served with broccoli and potatoes. (The halibut was cooked perfectly. We hadn't planned on having dessert but ended up ordering the Neapolitan icecream encased in a chocolate shell and the cannoli. Both were delicious! Do make reservations as it is a small restaurant with about 7 tables and the bar. On the evening of our visit, Erika and the owner took care of us and the other diners. If you have any trouble finding it, look to the right of the Mexican restaurant. If we lived closer, we would definitely come back to try some other dishes!

I was disappointed with the service at Ciao Capri. My boyfriend and I were turned away from the restaurant and were informed that they were at full capacity. Despite there only being 3 dining parties present and at least 4 empty tables, as well as empty seats at the bar, we did not feel welcomed by the host. Additionally, the restaurant appeared to be quieter and emptier compared to other establishments in the area.
