The food here is absolutely delicious. I had the house salad and lasagna. For dessert I had the tiramisu and gelato, Heath flavored. The service was on point. Abby was so attentive and very nice. I would recommend coming here if you’re ever in North Little Rock Arkansas.
The best real Italian food I’ve had since I left Denver!! I can’t find the words to say how amazing every dish was, I was utterly stunned at the quality of ingredients. The house Risotto was devine, sausage and white truffle with a cream sauce. The bruschetta was a fantastic surprise of spinach cheese sauce. I also highly recommend the Spinach gnocchi; they just melt in your mouth . I cannot rave enough about their menu and service, I cannot wait to dine here again!
I dont usually eat Italian food. This was an amazing experience! The food was amazing and the server, Chris was excellent! We had the seafood linguini, chicken pesto risotto, pepperoni Pizza, and shrimp and lobster linguini. It all was amazing and reasonably priced. For the service, ambiance, and service it was worth it.
This is a good, wholesome Italian restaurant. We had reservations, and we were glad we did since the patrons filled in quickly on Saturday evening. Their menu consisted of many of the standard Italian fare foods, including a fish of the day, which isn't shown on their menu. The waiter brought us their homemade bread, which was super warm and soft on the inside with a nice crunchy crust on the outside. We were so full from our entrees that we didn't get any dessert, but we learned they are all made from scratch, including their gelato. I highly recommend this restaurant if you're looking for wholesome Italian cuisine with a cozy but upscale atmosphere.
《9/25 Review update: If you are fortunate to have Richard as you bartender, it's a lucky/ good day. Food is excellent as always; drinks to complement whatever you get can be enhanced with the assistance of someone seasoned like Richard. Don't hesitate to ask about any preferred drinks that you like. My favorite drinks are always well made, regardless if it's off menu. This review is being written after four visits. Parking is free, but it can take a little effort at times, mostly street parking. There is bar seating as well as table. Good alcohol and wine selection, nothing excessive. The bartender knows what he's doing, feel free to ask about off menu drinks/ cocktails. The kitchen has been fairly consistent, and outstanding. The cost for food and drink is consistent for the area & quality/ quantity; nothing excessive. Menu can be a bit more diverse. Kudos to the management for a good team and good food. Will be back again soon.
We had the grilled meatballs for an appetizer, whoa! They were amazing! My daughter had the cheese pizza, loved it. My husband had the veal and enjoyed it, said it was one of the best he’s had. My dad had the Elk and said it was great! He especially liked the side salad with artichoke hearts and vinaigrette dressing. I had the seafood pasta and words just can not do this dish justice. It was Incredible! It was a wonderful choice for our last night in Arkansas!
A wonderful dining experience when visiting little rock. Be sure to get a reservation as the true Italian atmosphere packs the venue. The good is authentic and gives the reminece of old Italy. We all chose to sit at the bar with our wonderful bartender Richard. He is quick on the drinks and is very knowledgeable about the local area and culture. The Marsala Chicken had to be the most authentic and tasty that ive ever had and was complimented by the homemade bread. Nestled right in the heart of north little rock, it's a dining experience to remember.
Beautiful ambiance in this restaurant. The Bruschetta and meatballs were tasty yet quite small for the price. The Lamb with Figs is a signature dish. It was fantastic. Hearty, tender and rich with flavor. Highly recommend. A great special occasion or date night place.
10/10 would recommend! Made a reservation at Capeo to celebrate my little sister’s college signing day. Before we even stepped foot in the restaurant they made sure to communicate with us via text to confirm our reservation and update it with our changes. Once we arrived we received a warm welcome from the staff. Our waiter Dale was very knowledgeable of the menu and he was attentive so we never had to hunt him down for anything. We started off with the Bolla Pinot Grigio recommended by Dale and it was so not too sweet and not too tart. For appetizers we ordered the Clams & Mussels, Caesar Salads, Bruschetta, Wild mushroom soup and the butternut squash soup. All of which were delicious! For our main courses we ordered the Baked Rigatoni, vegetable lasagna, chestnut gnocchi and fettuccine alfredo. Again everything tasted amazing. I would highly recommend eating at Capeo because the service is top notch, food is amazing and the atmosphere is upscale.
It was a lovely experience before attending a show downtown. We were an early arrival and our waitress was wonderful. I had the chestnut gnocchi with pesto and it was ok. I think I would have liked a pasta dish better, but I didn’t want to eat too much before the show. The calamari was really good, especially with real lemon juice squeezed over it. Mmm!
