This is by far our favorite restaurant in Capri. For six years, we have consistently had excellent service and excellent food. The staff and owner are very friendly and welcoming. I had delicious baked fish with thin-sliced potatoes in a light wine sauce. This was the best fish I have ever tasted. The spaghetti with mushrooms was also very good,... More

We were roaming around Capri trying to find a place to eat and we came accross La Capannina. We were offered by the lady in the door the 20 euro set menu which had a great and big salad for starter with the ost amazing ravioli for mains and a delicious Caprese Pie for dessert. It was a very good... More

we were a bit wary of what the eating experience was going to be in Capri town - value for money and quality. this restaurant is in very safe hands - front of house and in the kitchen. Melanzane PArmigiana is always a good test and this passed with flying colours. a ravioli dish was sublime. even the nibbles were... More

The waiter was overbearing and kept annoying us and the other people in our party. It's best to stay away from this place. Hubby had to have the fish or he would have been who knows what! The waiter even bought all the fish to the table for him to choose from. Yuck! Daughter had a disgusting lasagne. I had... More

The best Caprese salad I have ever had!!! Really enjoyed the wine suggested by our server as well. The kids had the ravioli and it was excellent. The walls are covered in pictures of the rich and famous who have dined here. They are on to something...

Expensive, and the food is very uneven. Some of the dishes were good (but nothing exceptional for these prices), some ok, but one of our dishes, the pappardelle with mushroom cream sauce was absolutely atrocious. The cream was like paste, sticking in lumps to the pappardelle, which itself was under-cooked. The mushrooms seemed like they were canned, and were not... More

My husband and I had lunch here while on a day trip from Positano. It was a cold rainy day and we decided to stop since the restaurant looked small and cozy. The service was excellent and the food was tasty. I had the scialatelli with mussels and clams, and it was so delicious. The pasta was homemade and incredible.... More

Ate here whilst on Honeymoon and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It was a stormy week on Capri and this cosy, rustic gem was warm and welcoming. Really good prices for food and wines and excellent service. I had some lovely fresh squid and a deliciously fragrant, fresh seafood risotto. Wouldn't call it pricey at all, maybe day trippers don't want... More

We were in Capri for the day having caught the ferry from Positano, the town was busy and the restaurants on the main streets and squares seemed very touristy. We were wandering around and discovered this restaurant on a side street. The welcome was fulsome and we were pleased to see that the majority of our fellow diners were Italian.... More

We took an evening trip to Capri to enjoy the island when most of the tourists had gone home and decided to spoil ourselves in a restaurant recommended by a fellow traveller staying on the island. We had a nice window seat allowing us to people watch and look at all the photos of celebrities who have been there. If... More
