Description:

  • One of the trendiest pizza restaurants in town, Capricciosa is where the hip and beautiful people eat. A large wood-burning oven dominates the back of the room and turns out great-tasting pizzas and calzones, from the plain Pizza Margarita with mozzarella, Parmesan, and fresh basil and tomato to the signature Capricciosa with tomato, ham, artichoke, mushrooms, bacon, and egg. The restaurant also has a delicious cold-cut and antipasto buffet, served with slices of homemade crusty bread, and offers a selection of pasta dishes. Those who prefer a more low-key and intimate setting can opt for the wine bar, to the left of the busy and bustling main dining room; the menus are the same. This ain't cheap pizza . . . in fact at these prices you could be digging into a juicy steak or a tasty seafood dish elsewhere, but that is the price you pay to hobnob with Rio's rich and famous.
