Reviews for Caprice Cafe in Redlands, CA

This place was amazing. Great food, great service and a wonderful setting to mark a special event. With temperatures in the... upper 90s, we were initially upset that our reservation preference for indoors was not honored, but with the patio misters goingit was fine to be outside. Plus it made for good people watching. Everything we ordered, from appetizers to entrees, wasdelicious. Stand outs were the ahi tuna tartare, crab cakes, rainbow trout and the spicy angel hair pasta that seemed Thaiinfluenced. Their pastry chef had made an almond plum tart that was to die for, as good as any in Europe. I only wished that theserver had warned us that we had ordered too much. The portions are very generous; pasta dishes can easily be shared by 2people. It did make for tasty leftovers... Read more

Really enjoyed dinner here. The food was good. I was really lookong forward to trying the braised beef short ribs but it was... not offer that night. Decided to try the Butternut Squash Risotto, which was good. The service was really nice, and they havea patio for outdoor seating. I would definitely recommend Caprice. Read more

Been here twice. First time was when Covid was an issue. We live the ambiance, the food and the service this last visit. Joe... and especially the busboy, Jacob. Read more

We came here a few years ago and remembered how delicious the food was but couldn't remember the location. So, when we stumbled... in the other day, we instantly raised our expectations. The place is tight and a bit cramped. The tables are small and, if notfor the high ceiling, one would easily feel claustrophobic. What this restaurant lacks in space, it makes up for in decor. Thelights, greenery and bar gives the place a cool vibe. As for the food, i highly recommend the Crab cakes. One word describesit: perfect! My husband had the Parsnip soup. He said it was good and ate every spoonful. Next, there was the bread thewaitress placed on the table. It was buttery, crispy goodness. I wouldn't say it's better than Texas Roadhouse bread, butdefinitely good. For our main entrée, I had the short ribs. It was as tender as warm butter, but it lacked seasoningaccording to my preference. I thought it was slightly bland. My husband ordered the eggplant lasagna. It was good but nothingto take you to heaven. Our drinks were tasty and not too strong. I had the pomegranate mojito and my husband had the longIsland iced tea. For desert, we enjoyed the apple dumpling puff pastry and the chocolate pecan tart. Overall, this place is adefinite "recommend". Read more

The risotto with the butternut squash was not creamy as expected, but it tasted good. The wagyu meatballs were tasty, although I... expected something spectacularly different (first time eating wagyu meat). The meatballs were cooked well, and the marinarasauce they came with was great. However, the food wasn't hot when it arrived. The waiter was friendly and knowledgeable. We wentexpecting high end food, and although the food is good, it's at the door to high end in my opinion. Read more

1st timers here ???????? Per usual, we try an array of items on the menu. First up, we ordered crab cakes & pork bites. Crab... cakes get a 9/10. They were absolutely delicious but I would have liked them to be just a tad bit crisper. Pork bites get a7/10. They were good, but really hard on some bites which made it hard to chew. For drinks we ordered the lemon drop, bloodorange cosmo and an old fashioned. Blood orange was by far the most delicious out of all 3 10/10. Lemon drop was okay, butI’ve had the same flavor at other places 7/10. The old fashioned was good & had great flavor but was REALLY strong 8/10. Forentrees, we ordered the waygu burger with cauliflower mash. Burger itself was really juicy and had amazing flavor with eachbite, too much meat for my liking but my boyfriend would disagree. It’s just a thick cut burger. Cauliflower mash is a musttry for sure. We also ordered the lamb with artichokes. It comes with quinoa but we wanted to try the artichoke. Artichokes werea huge let down so we actually sent them back and asked for the green beans with almonds. Unfortunately, they are also lackingin the flavor department. Lastly, we ordered the papardelle shrimp pasta. This was the winner of the night. Absolutelydelicious. I wish I had asked for just a tiny bit more of the sauce but I would order this again in a heartbeat. Our waitressrecommended the apple fila for dessert. It was okay. But just okay. Nothing to rave about. I’d go for another item next time.The puff pastry was a little burnt which In turn makes the pastry taste bitter. It has a nice crisp to it and is filled withsemi sweet apples. We sat inside and it is really beautiful with dim lighting and comfortable seating. We can’t wait to goback honestly. Read more

Surprised to find a great French restaurant in Redland. We stopped by here for lunch after visited 123 Farm. When we saw good... reviews on Yelp, we decided to have lunch here. We found the restaurant was nicely decorated with charming design, butdefinitely didn’t feel French. Staffs were very friendly. Once we got inside, we were seated by the receptionist and thedrinks were served. The ice tea was refreshing and cooling, that was very fitting for the weather which was 107 F that day. Thefoods were good despite the decoration of the restaurant was not much of a French design. I had a quiche with arugula. Thequiche was done well. The crust was flaky and the the quiche was very cheesy. The house bread was heavenly. When they wereserved on our table, the breads were warm and buttery with herbal taste. Definitely recommend this restaurant for anyone whohappens to visit Redland. Read more
