This place offers a great dining experience... I can feel everyone in the restaurant enjoying their food. Love it!"

"This was seriously good food. Fresh and excellent. Risotto pescatore was to die for. And Mammas home made tiramisu was perfect.
All round 100 for us"

About

CAPRICCIO

“At Capriccio, we know and respect that sometimes being old-fashioned – especially when it comes to cooking – is not a bad thing. It’s the reason we’ve been known as an icon in Glenelg since 1980. Esterina and I have over 40 years’ experience running the kind of restaurant we’d want to eat at.

We’re proud of our heritage, and Esterina’s parent’s legacy – Paganas Italian Restaurant. Paganas had the honour of a featured write up in Vogue magazine, which was very rare for a restaurant.

Today, Capriccio upholds the tradition of a genuine Italian restaurant, focusing on good service, good food and a warm, comfortable atmosphere. Let our family serve yours the food we’ve always loved – straight from the heart.”

– Francesco Scuteri

It looks lovely and has a beautiful vibe. The service was wonderful, lots of staff and each being attentive and friendly. The menu is great with lots of vegetarian options. Our meals were prepared quickly and they were divine. The photos don’t do the meals justice. Each meal was flavoursome with lovely presentation. I am already planning our next dinner there. Also, I don’t typically drink table water at cafes or restaurants. I’m a bit germaphobic, so I always bring my own water bottle. However , the glasses were perfectly clean as were the water bottles. The water was beautifully chilled. This is literally the only restaurant (in years) that I have drunk the table water. Well done to the manager and staff- you have created an amazing restaurant experience for your patrons ⭐️
