" Everything at Mama Capri was delightful! We had the calamari for starters and they were crispy perfection. The pastas were lovely—genuinely authentic and rich in flavor. The waitstaff was attentive, always making sure our glasses were filled. The atmosphere felt intimate, like a classic Italian restaurant you’d find in a small town in Italy. I can’t wait to go back and try more dishes; I feel like every meal will surprise me again! What a find! " (*Curated Review*)

" This tiny Italian restaurant offers a charming escape into authentic Italian flavors right in Brooklyn. Last week, I came with my partner and was immediately drawn in by the warm atmosphere. We ordered the Caprese salad, which was fresh, followed by classic spaghetti aglio e olio. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the flavors were exquisite—exactly what I expect from a great Italian trattoria. Service was quick, and our waiter was very knowledgeable about the menu. Can't wait to revisit and try more items! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved everything about Mama Capri! I had the best birthday dinner here with my friends. The staff was incredibly friendly, and our waiter went above and beyond. We enjoyed sharing various appetizers, and everything from the bruschetta to the fried calamari was perfectly cooked and flavorful. For the main course, I had the seafood spaghetti, which was overflowing with fresh, tender seafood. The tiramisu was the highlight, as it was light, airy, and heavenly. Truly an unforgettable night! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Mama Capri was decent but fell short of my expectations. I expected highly authentic dining based on the reviews but was underwhelmed. While the ambiance was nice and inviting, I didn’t find the food to match the hype—my pasta was cook-along fine but not remarkable. The waiter was very helpful and friendly, which was a plus. I may try again to see if the food varies on another visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an utterly delightful experience at Mama Capri last night! From the moment we stepped in, the friendly staff made us feel right at home. I ordered the homemade ravioli, which were divine! With every bite, I could taste the freshness. We also shared a lovely bottle of wine which complemented our meals beautifully. The little touches in decor made the atmosphere feel extra special too. Highly recommend for both a casual dinner or a special occasion. I’ll be back soon for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Mama Capri is where Italian cuisine meets a cozy atmosphere! My friends and I celebrated a special occasion here, and we were all impressed. We started with the bruschetta, which was delicious—so fresh! For the main course, I had the gnocchi, which was light yet filling. My friend had the seafood pasta, and she loved it. The service was spot on! I really enjoyed the decor as well; it added to the authentic vibe. Definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for quality Italian food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was thoroughly disappointed with my experience at Mama Capri. Despite the good reviews, I felt the food fell flat. I ordered the lasagna, which was decent but nothing spectacular. Additionally, the service was a bit slow, though the staff was polite. The ambiance was fine but it didn’t live up to the bustling energy I expected. Maybe it's just an off-night, but considering the price point, I expected more. I’m hesitant to come back, but who knows? " (*Curated Review*)
