The food at Capri by Gigi never disappoints! This was our first time eating at the Zitt e Zitt next door to the restaurant. The sea bass was outstanding as was the meatball appetizer! Everyone enjoyed their food. The vibe was fun and the DJ played great music. Best of all was our server. She was fantastic as were the bussers who made sure our water was full at all times. Highly recommend!
