Fellow Yelper's hinted my group to Capo's and there was not an ounce of disappointment by this choice. My boyfriend is Italian so I have a tough critic when dining at an Italian restaurant. He was extremely pleased with the selection.
I will be honest that I was a bit hesitant when I saw the location. Capo's is in a ghetto looking neighborhood within a strip mall, off the Vegas Strip. I guess that consoled myself that it would be worth a try when I saw Ruth Chris in the same type of setting, but a couple blocks back.
The entrance to the restaurant is quite fun and interesting. It is a simulated gangster hangout. You have to ring a door bell so that you can be let in. The restaurant itself is dark and you get a little light to read the menu. Capo's offers that very best service that I have seen at any restaurant. Jennine was our waitress and she was knowledgeable, attentive and looked happy to work at Capo's. The restaurant had a busboy, Jeremy who just worked his tail off and made sure that all the customers had all that they needed.
My boyfriend and I shared the lasagna as well as the egg drop soup with spinach. It was excellent. Taste, texture and temperature were outstanding. So far, Capo's is by far the best that we have had.
If only the restaurants on the strip could get the concept of great service and excellent food would they even be able to compete with Capo's.
