| - I knew they have a location in downtown, so I was actually hoping this place wouldnt be like the usual mediocre franchises. But, I was disappointed. I probably would have prefered going to Moxies instead.
The giant 1/2 pound stuffed meatball ($13)
This giant meatball was served on top of a toast, drenched in their special sauce. The restaurant was really dark so it was hard to see all the ingredients. The meatball was stuffed with ricotta cheese and chopped bacon. It was a bit salty but tastey. The toasted almonds added a nice crunch to the dish. I would have perfected it to be served hot as opposed to warm.
Capri fresh pasta (small plate for $13.50)
Freshly made fettuccine with shrimp, scallops, PEI mussels, squid, roasted red peppers, scallions, lemon zest, tomato sauce. I did not like lemon zest which came in almost every bite. There were quite a lot of seafood which was good but the pasta itself was disappointing. This restaurant is known for its fresh pasta but it didnt taste any different than normal pasta to me. The sauce tasted bland.
Bacon and egg pizza ($16)
The pizza came with smoked bacon, mushrooma, onions, chillis, mozzarella, chilli oil with a freshly cracked egg. This pizza was a bit too spicy for me, which I was suprised since western food normally aren't that spicy. They have pizza and beer pairings on Wednesday, but only for specific pizzas.
