" Let me tell you! This is one of the finest Italian restaurants in Albany. Every dish we ordered was not only fresh but also bursting with authentic flavors typical of Italy. The ravioli was homemade, and the sauce was crafted with herbs straight from the owner's garden! Our server was attentive throughout, and the ambiance made us feel like we were dining in a quaint little village in Italy. Will be recommending Café Capriccio to everyone I know. " (*Curated Review*)

" Café Capriccio has become my go-to for Italian cuisine in Albany! I adore their consistency in food quality and service. Every visit feels special—friendly staff, romantic atmosphere, and the food is always on point. Their ravioli specials are exceptional; definitely a must-try. I recommend making a reservation though, as it can get quite busy! " (*Curated Review*)

" While Café Capriccio had some fine points, there were also several drawbacks. My dish was enjoyable, but there were clear lapses in service—my drink took far too long to arrive. On a pleasant note, the atmosphere was engaging and made for a good night out, but I felt that the staff could be more attentive. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience at Café Capriccio. The food was good but not exceptional, and I hoped for a richer flavor profile. The service could have been more attentive, as I felt overlooked several times. Although the ambiance was lovely, it didn't create the experience I had hoped for. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Café Capriccio on a busy Friday night, and despite the crowd, the staff managed to keep everything running smoothly. The food was delicious and reminded me of the times I spent in Italy! I particularly enjoyed their bruschetta—it was vibrant and flavorful. The service was attentive, with staff checking in often, making a warm atmosphere to enjoy my meal. I highly recommend this restaurant! " (*Curated Review*)
