Capriccio

Lola and Andre moved here from Italy and the kitchen has not drifted since: pizza and pasta made properly, antipasti, and fresh fish done the Italian way. The wine list is the part that surprises people — it is the largest Italian selection in the Caribbean, chosen and imported by the owners themselves rather than ordered from a distributor.

Open Wednesday to Friday for lunch from 12:00 to 14:00 and dinner from 18:30 to 22:00; at the weekend dinner only, same hours. Closed Monday and Tuesday. The lunch service is worth knowing about — few restaurants on this stretch open in the middle of the day. Reserve for dinner in high season. An hour for lunch, two for dinner.

Pizza and pasta are the cheapest part of the menu and prices climb with the fish and the wine, so this works both as an inexpensive lunch and as a long evening depending on what you order. Thirty years in one family also means the staff know the list — ask rather than guess.
