    Visited: September 2021. Probably the best pizza I've ever had in Canada. I am a huge fan of mushrooms and the pizza here was amazing. The atmosphere was very welcoming, a bit darker then I would personally prefer but it really adds to the welcoming vibe. Great place to eat, chat up a storm and have some drinks. Their servers and chefs always do an amazing job. I can't wait till we can dine in again because I have been dying to go back.

    Came here with a friend for a girls dinner date and had a great evening! We shared the bag of bread as an appetizer and it was good! We both enjoy eating bread in general so this was a good start. The dip for the bread was so yummy that we had to ask for another serving of it! Because bread in itself is very filling, I would advise against finishing the entire bag before your meal but rather eat it along with your meal. The pizzas were fantastic! Not over cooked or burnt and not undercooked and soggy. It was perfect and crispy. The Sangria was tasty too. The ideal summer beverage. The staff were friendly and attentive. You didn’t have to ask for refills of water because they came to you when they noticed your glass was almost empty. They even filled up our sangria glasses too when we were running low. Overall a great experience, definitely recommend this nice local spot :)

    Overpriced, under executed dishes. Everything felt like it was missing the finesse of a nice restaurant. Not bad, just below average and a little rough around the edges in terms of taste.

    I thought the food was absolutely delicious! Will have to go back and try a pasta dish aswell. Enjoyed the red sangria which was very refreshing and perfect on a warm summer day. The pizza had a nice thin crust and was cooked to perfection, the raspberry tiramisu was light and not too sweet. The staff was very friendly and helpful, would recommend this restaurant for sure! Parking is in the back of the restaurant so you have to walk around to the front doors to get in. The prices may be a little on the higher side but we’ll worth it.

    Absolutely loved this place. The atmosphere is designed very well. The food is extremely delicious (highly recommend trying the polenta fries) and the staff are very friendly. Unfortunately the menu has changed and they no longer have some of the items that were listed on their website like the tuna tartar or the grilled octopus.

    The food was excellent! I ran into Massimo and regret not taking a selfie with him. The staff was very attentive and patient. We were there for a baptism and the kids were out of their seats half the time ...

    A very cozy and relaxed patio. I thought I was in Europe for a second. You almost forget that you don't have the best of views around you (location is kind of in a plaza). Food surpassed my expectations, especially the Antipasoo misto di mare - their very new dish. Sea food was fresh and the pizza had a delicious aroma of mushroom and was super juicy. Pizza literally melted in the mouth and even the crust was irresistible. Music was great too. You get a relaxed European patio vibe. A little pricey though.

    Everything was excellent, drinks, food, ambiance, service!!! Can’t wait to visit again and try other menu items. They also have a feature menu that changes up regularly! Bonus: we got the pleasure of meeting Massimo!!! Also - a big shout out to Sean, our server - thank you for making our evening a memorable one!

    The food and the ambiance were awesome . It's totally worth the money. Was there for lunch, good food choices. Small menu, but the food was awesome. Decent wine collection. Felt a lack of attention in the service initially, but it picked up when the senior server took up the table. Another thing, I did not appreciate the bill on the table before I asked it. I would have asked for another coffee, but I didn't because the bill was already there.

    Excellent food, we ordered bag of bread and polenta chips in starters and ravioli caprese, capra pizza, gorgonzola in main course. All dishes were well presented, came in good portions and tasted delicious. Try Menabrea beer they have

    My second visit, but this time, we went in as a group of about 11. Ordered a bunch of appetizers including carciofi and funghi, hummus, ricotta and figs, along with couple of pies (Margherita and Calabrese) and beer on tap. The ricotta and figs was close to being fought over as it was really good and the pizza's were excellent. Main course, our host, who was wonderful but I'm terrible in not having remembered his name, swore by the tagliatelle al ragu (p.g.p. tagliatelle, beef & pork, pancetta, crushed tomatoes, wine, soffritto). We went with his recommendation and probably 6-8 of us ordered this; other choices were the salmerino and Spaghetti Fruitti di Mare. True to the sentiments of our host, the tagliatelle al ragu was amazing! Finished off with a bunch of desserts including castagnole tiramisu and ricotta pistachio cake - the tiramisu was my personal favorite. Overall, for the service, for the quality and amazing taste of the food, and the vibe, our bill was surprisingly smaller than thought (& definitely lower compared to similar group outings we've had at other restaurants). As I don't live far from Capra's Kitchen, I'm going to take my family in the coming days for a nice dinner.

    I have to give this restaurant a solid 5. There is nothing negative, I can think of. When went there for a casual dinner, they were very polite and sat us down right away, offered us water within minutes and took our drink order. I ordered the shrimp with spaghetti. The food arrived very quick. Plates were very nice and looked delicious, and it was very delicious. Had to be one of the best I’ve had. For dessert, I went with the Tiramisu, who wouldn’t? It was delicious. The service was excellent throughout the meal. The restaurant was also very clean, we sat outside in the patio. Definitely a place I would go back.

    I went for dinner with a group of friends on Friday night. The atmosphere was great. There were a few birthday celebrations going on and the staff were great sports singing happy birthday. Our group of 6 enjoyed the food. We had polenta, artichokes, pizza, lamb and spaghetti alle vongole. It was all delicious. The specialty drinks were great. For dessert we had the tiramisu. It was okay. The fact that there is free parking right behind the restaurant is a definite bonus.

  • 5/5 Tonia E. 1 year ago on Google
    It is definitely one of my favorite go-to places.. for brunch, lunch, dinner, even just drinks and an appetizer. I especially love bringing friends from out of town there. The service has never disappointed me. From reservations to the hostess to the wait staff... everyone is always smiling and giving 100%. I was most recently there on Saturday and I have to thank Hostess extraordinary Michelle for a) trying so hard to get us the table request that I wanted b) accommodating a seat add at the 12th hour! To our server, Sean/Shawn, you and your Assistances were incredible. You guys were a finely oiled machine, and you never lost a beat. See you all soon!

    Massimo Capra is an absolute pro! The food, atmosphere and service in his restaurant were all excellent. The appetizer of crispy artichokes and mushrooms was light and crisp and delicious. The ragu on his homemade pasta was divine. Highly recommend this place!

    Very delicious Italian Restaurant. I have gotten takeout twice before I got the Brazino ( Sea bass) and Capra pizza for takeout. My family ate on the patio for dinner on a Saturday with a reservation. Their food quality is consistent. My parents ordered the rib eye steak , calamarized carrots ,potatoes and I ordered the the Spaghetti Camberi and zucchini. The servers are very attentive and friendly. I would recommend this restaurant! Even their panna cotta was tasty as well.

    The ambiance if the restaurants was relaxing and falls under the romantic, but yet family like amumbrella. The staff was quick, efficient and friendly. The food was tasty, but too expensive in my opinion. But try it for yourself, the food is delicious.

  • 3/5 natasha h. 2 years ago on Google
    The ambiance was good,the staff was friendly and the vibe was great.Unfortunately the drinks ,food and dessert were a bit disappointing. The chicken wasn't cooked well and mostly inedible .The potatoes were salty ,sogged under the chicken and incredibly oily .They didn't taste freshly cooked or seasoned well. The sangria had a heavy bodied red wine base that didn't taste very delicious. The dessert was also sub par for the price. This restaurant is a one and done for me but I think for those who like Italian cuisine,it would be good for them.

    The ambience was great and we really loved Capra pizza. The pasta was fresh and had a nice subtle truffle flavour which we enjoyed. Unfortunately we got cold bread with hummus but the extra ones we ordered were served hot. Would come back again!

    Enjoyed our dinner. The truffle mushrooms chicken was delicious ! I think appetizers seem very expensive considering quantity given (especially the bruschetta)

  • 5/5 Jovana V. 5 months ago on Google • 44 reviews
    Phenomenal! The food was absolutely amazing. We had the Calabrese pizza and the Tortellini. For dessert we enjoyed the tiramisu and the chocolate & hazelnut gelato. Our server Johnathan was fantastic, and absolutely made our evening, thank you so much.

  • 3/5 Rajko C. 9 months ago on Google
    Lamb was cooked and garnished well. It was on the fattier side FYI. 8/10 Carbonara shockingly bad.Pasta overcooked, bacon had a springy texture, and the cheese tasted like philadelphia. I would consider this airport food tier. 2/10

  • 4/5 Aditya M. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was good but the server was rude. Will go back their but will definitely avoid the same server. One Dessert not in the pictures but definitely try it. It’s semifreddo. The best semifreddo in mississauaga and Oakville. Their pizza is really good as well.

  • 5/5 Ivana P. 11 months ago on Google
    Had a chaotic day before I arrived. Thought I’d revisit Capra’s. Alone at at bar. Cub was a fabulous server/bartender. Daniel returning from pre med classes was just so welcoming a delight. Food delicious. Had the Pomodoro. But being that I arrive close to three and hadn’t eaten since previous night, I was still hungry and it was brunch day so I was able to order side of sausage. Oh my God the sausage was worth $1000000! Delicious fantastic I’ll be popping it again soon.

  • 5/5 Usman Q. 2 years ago on Google
    Went to celebrate my wife birthday. Good experience. Got the best spot as requested. We ordered Grille calamari, Margherita pizza, Salmone, Gamberetti, and two pasta dishes. Food was tasty, rich but for pasta we added a bit of Parmesan cheese and salt to make it for our liking. Will go back.

  • 5/5 MIL G. 8 months ago on Google
    The food is delicious, the staff is very helpful and the ambiance is charming and inviting. The pancakes, French toast and home fries are also great from the brunch menu that I’ve tried. Also the ravioli, pizza & hummus (not together) also satisfy the taste pallets!

  • 5/5 O C. 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderful lunch experience here celebrating a birthday. Ravioli and scarola pizza were absolutely delicious. Great service and nice ambiance. We will be back.

  • 5/5 Jon Yip C. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent food, cocktails, and service. Perfect spot for a date night. Pastas are made in house and absolutely delicious. A lot of care is taken with the preparation of their dishes and it shows!
