Capri Lemont

We went here for Valentine’s Day, we were given a gift card so we made a reservation. It’s very small and cozy in here, you are sitting like 15 inches away from the table next to you (which isn’t horrible just not that great). The food is good, but I feel like I can make the same quality of food at home. It is not bad food, it’s good, but not amazing. The wine was good. Their ticket printers were broken so they did mess up a lot of what we had ordered (which again is fine, they were busy and it’s very stressful trying to manage broken technology during a shift).

Food was amazing and service was excellent! Our waiter was extremely friendly! Vodka pasta, baked cavatelli, orecchiette, and charcuterie board were all delicious!

We ordered the rigatoni alla vodka, cavatelli, and orecchiette and all were delicious. Service was great too. Will come back!

I am reluctant to post this because the owners are so accommodating but after two very bad experiences I feel I must let others know. First was a dine in experience last fall. I ordered the special, a chicken lemone. It arrived looking different than the same item I usually get for pickup. I could not cut the chicken with a knife. The server graciously offered to bring me another. It was definitely pounded thinner but still tough as leather. They removed the charge and I settled for my wine. Fast forward to December 20 when my family and I ordered carry out: 2 pastas with vodka sauce, 1 lemon chicken (I warned them), a chicken parmigiana and a veal lemone. $150 for inedible food. No salad and a piece of bread the size of a small croissant. The food in no way resembled or tasted like the food we had one year prior. Portions so small, pasta overcooked and chicken and veal, you guessed it....TOUGH!What happened folks???

I called to inquire about catering and the person who answered told me the prices doubled since last year. He told me it was $240 for a full pan of a chicken dish. I said wow, I find it hard to believe that the prices have doubled like that. He said, check the prices at Rosebud and hung up on me. I will never order from Capri Lemont again. How dare he hang up on me. I wasn't rude I was just telling him I find it hard to believe prices have gone up that much. I have eaten here recently also, but never will again after this man's rude behavior. I have been a customer of Capri Palos and Burr Ridge for a long time, but will never step foot in Lemont again. Totally unprofessional. GO TO PAPA JOE'S- A FULL PAN OF CHICKEN LIMONE is $98. He quoted me $240. That's ridiculous.
