    Food, service and atmosphere were all top class. Tommy was particularly attentive, nothing was too much for him, he ensured we were very well looked after.

    Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, das Restaurant war sehr schön. Eine top Lage mitten im Herzen von Cascais. Wurden sehr Gut Empfangen, und anfänglich auch gut von einer brasilianischen Bedienung bedient. Leider hatten wir nach den Getränken, eine andere Bedienstete. Sie war portugiesische Abstammung... Sehr unhöflich und arrogant! Habe trotz dessen 10 Euro Trinkgeld hinterlassen. Darauf hin ging die Dame ohne was zu sagen, oder sich zu bedanken 😔 ich hoffe das Trinkgeld wird unter allen Mitarbeiter geteilt, weil alle anderen haben einen super Job gemacht. Mit freundlichen Grüßen Marc Aurelio Lüpke

    Comercial fast food pizza. I was really disappointed, ordered a Margherita and a Speciale it was exactly the same taste but with some bad ham on it. The tomatoes sauce was orange instead of red 🤷🏻‍♀️ the dough was pre-cooked… defined not coming back.

    This restaurant is primarily a pizza place, and in that respect it excels. It was quite full when we showed up without reservations, but we were seated pretty quickly. The service was quick, kind and attentive. The atmosphere is a homey, modern and clean feeling. We selected our pizzas from the well laid-out menus and waited for an average amount of time to get our meals. Considering it was quite packed, the wait wasn't long at all. The pizzas were great and tasty, with quality ingredients. I've seen a number of pizza places charging quite high prices for such a basic food, but Capricciosa has very reasonable prices indeed. Strongly recommended.

    Amazing sunset view. Prompt and attentive service. We ordered seafood pasta and a pizza to share plus some kids meals. All of it was filling and good. We waited 30min to be seated, reasonable for a Friday in July at 9pm with a family of 5.

    Patricia was extremely kind and helpful during the service. Everything was good (pizza Toscana is my must-have) and we were rapidly served. Last but not least, the point of view absolutely charming. Do not hesitate to try or to return if you have already tried !

    Great place on beach. Came for lunch and view and both did not disappoint! Service was quick and efficient! Pizzas came really quickly! Fair prices too. Enter on the street side, not from the beach.

    So, firstly, the food here was very good! The starters were very tasty and huge portions (so beware unless you're really hungry), and the pizzas we had were delicious. And if you have a table by the window facing the sea, the view is lovely. However... overall experience was soured by poor service. It wasn't that the staff were rude or inattentive, they just didn't seem at all organised. We ordered 2 "Port Tonic"s (like, a national drink in Portugal!) but about 10 minutes after, just two plain Tonic waters arrived. When we asked about the port element, we were told they didn't do that... Ok... so we asked to have a couple of gins to put in the tonic.... Another 10 mins passed until someone else came to check what we wanted... A further ten minutes passed until the gin arrived. At which point, we'd been sat down for almost 30 minutes with no drink and no food order taken... Eventually we ordered, and the starters arrived pretty promptly. But we weren't even half way through them when our pizzas turned up! The waiter tried to shove the (large, they're pizzas!) plates on our small table, pushing our starters out of the way. We asked for the pizza to be brought back in at least 10 minutes so we could finish our starters... just 5 minutes later the pizzas returned... we gave up! I can't see why the pizzas weren't requested from the kitchen until our starters had been finished - everyone needs a break after the first course and pizza doesn't take long to cook... Hopefully if you visit they won't have similar service issues. I'm afraid I won't be giving them a second chance.

    Nice place with good Italian food. I tried the Pizza Toscana and it was good. The 4 star rating is related to the somehow not so prepared and not so professional waiters and the way they lack to connect with the customer.

    Sitio bonito se come bien hay unas vistas increíbles lo peor el calor que hacía en la terraza

    In einer Seitenstraße gelegen, aber sehr gut besucht. Die Kellner "fangen" die vorbeigehenden, aber auf eine nette und nicht aufdringliche Art und bitten einen Platz. Viele Plätze drinnen und draussen. Essen schmeckt gut und der Service ist es auch. Sehr nett zu Kindern. Haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

    It’s the second time we come to this place and second time we like it. All the dishes are great and tasty. The view is great and the drinks are as well. I only don’t give 5 stars because the pizza dough is not the best and we waited 20 mins for the menu to choose the dessert. But the waiters were actually very nice 👍

  • 5/5 Fernanda S. 5 months ago on Google • 154 reviews

    The food is always awesome and good quality. The view and the atmosphere are great. Pity that the quality of the service you got, unfortunately, depends on the person who will be in charge of it! We go there two or three times a month and we noticed that many times!

  • 2/5 Lisa A. 1 year ago on Google
    I ordered a pizza a few nights ago to Estoril , and I’m really surprised , that the ratings here are good at all. After living in Italy I would not recommend the pizza in this place - the tomato sauce and the cheese are not well done/ chosen and that is shown through the taste. I will not come back for food to this place

  • 5/5 Francis B. 1 year ago on Google
    This was honestly one of my best meals during in Portugal, and I had plenty of delicious food throughout my trip. My wife and I visited Cascais on the tail end of our Portugal babymoon. After almost two weeks of eating Portuguese cuisine, we opted to have Capricciosa Italian cuisine. It did not disappoint. Starting with the flatbread, I did not expect so much flavor to come from a flatbread. There is a veal and mushroom pasta that even now, over 6 months later, I wish I could have again. The pasta was delicious and the Veal was perfectly cook (and I normally don't eat Veal). My sangria complemented it perfectly. They have great seating as you can enjoy views of the beach while you dine.

  • 5/5 Jennifer T. 11 months ago on Google
    It’s not a “five star dining experience” in that the menu is casual and they have wood fired pizza. But for what they are, it’s excellent! The pizzas were delicious. We had one with a ricotta cream and ham and tomato and cheese, and a 4 staggioni. We ate overlooking the beach outdoors, and the staff was pleasant. We had good coffee at the close of the meal. Only complaint is that there was no regular salad or vegetables on the menu. All the “salads” were entree sized items with shrimp or chicken and costing €11-12. Or a pesto covered mozzarella salad. The red berry sangria was €3 a glass and very tasty!

  • 3/5 Christine P. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice spot by the beach. Only went for drinks and ice cream. I didn’t like the gelato much. Tried 6 flavours and none were like that great. My boyfriend liked them tho. Good wifi too!

  • 2/5 Ivan V. 1 year ago on Google
    Service and view is great, but pizza was very disappointing. We got the one on the photo for 14 euros and it seems, that they have spent one minute on making it. Not worth it. Can't recommend.

  • 5/5 Laura V. 1 year ago on Google
    I had the most delicious prawn pasta and sangria at this pizza pasta place in Cascais, Portugal! The food was amazing and the view of the ocean was breathtaking. The staff were friendly and attentive, making our experience even better. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a great meal with a beautiful view!

  • 5/5 Aleksandra B. 4 years ago on Google
    Lovely food, great view. Staff not so friendly.

  • 3/5 Aquiles C. 1 year ago on Google
    The place has a very nice view on the bay, and that’s the only highlight. We had pizza’s, which were OK, but far from spectacular for the price we paid. Dough was not as good as I was expecting. On the other hand, Sangrias were quite good. For Portugal, it’s an average place.

  • 5/5 Nuno F. 2 years ago on Google
    The service was amazing! I hadn't reserved online so they said we had wait 1 hour, but we got a table in less than 20 minutes. The food was so good and we got it so fast even though the restaurant was packed. It put all the other pizzarias in shame.

    Lovely restaurant with great views nice pizza and pasta reasonably priced

  • 5/5 Ivan S. 5 years ago on Google
    For starters we ordered olives and burrata. They were delicious. For entrees, we got pizza and pasta and both were great. Even though the server spoke limited English she was able to understand our limited Portuguese and everything arrived correctly and promptly. Plus the view is spectacular and the restrooms are clean. It’s also fairly affordable. A fantastic dining experience.

  • 5/5 Cheap W. 5 years ago on Google
    Beautiful sand beach just across the central Station of Cascais. So easy to get here. The beach is accomodated by a lot of bars and places to buy suncream, food, cold drinks and more. There are people walking around on the sand beach to sell you blankets if you don't have any, so all comfortable enjoyings at these beaches. If not enough, you can always go to the city center of cascais or cabo de inferno few kilometers further.

    I'm a frequent client who enjoys their pizza a lot. Cheap and with a very nice ocean view during the day, also very cozy during the night.

    (Translated by Google) My god, that's ex-that-llent! The burrata is divine, the shrimp pizza is not to mention and the salmon gnocchi just amazing. The service is perfect, they even offered to share everything so that we could taste everything. A real treat ! I advise 20,000% (Original) Mon dieu, c’est ex-ce-llent ! La burrata est divine, la pizza aux crevettes n’en parlons pas et les gnocchis au saumon juste incroyables.

  • 5/5 Wen S. 4 years ago on Google
    Great tasting pizza and sangria. We were greeted fast and friendly and seated fast. Our server, João came quickly and was not only professional but friendly and efficient. Got our order in and brought out food and drinks at an appropriate time! He was delightful :) The view of the beach is perfect and fun at sunset. Would definitely come back. Fast, friendly, good service and great tasting food!

    I don't have words to describe this Alcantra Calzone! It's amazing, perfectly since the flavour to the texture. I really loved it. The food comes really fast and we were a big group of people. The employees were very nice and patient and I definitely will come back.

  • 4/5 Lucía Rodriguez F. 2 years ago on Google
    It was okay! Good place with an amaizing view, I put 4 stars because pizza was cold and I don't like cold pizza, but the rest was excellent!

👍👍 Perfection. Spider crab was very well cooked, and was cut and set to eat with least effort. Steamed octopus was so tender and seafood rice had rich taste. And all the foods went so well with green wine. Wish I could visit again.
