Capo, with its modern Italian cuisine, offers a rustic yet elegant dining room with high-beamed ceilings, flickering candles, museum quality art collection, and a large Tuscan-style fireplace where the chefs prepare much of our menu. Capo has an extensive wine list, earning Wine Spectator's top award, and a classic cocktail bar where our guests can enjoy our full menu alongside the warmth of the fireplace.

Our waiter was rude unfortunately and it tainted our experience. Front of house and everyone else was so lovely, and the food and ambience was great.

the food and service is outstanding. like many other reviewers who mentioned price, it’s on the high side so if you are accustomed to fine dining menu prices, you’ll love it. if you’re not at that level, you’ll compare this to your local italian favorite that more “reasonably priced”. that said the wine and food menu specials were top notch. the grilled caesar salad is a must. enjoy a top wine menu. the level of attention was just right.

Excellent food and excellent quality. The rigatoni pasta is one of the best in the city! The blueberry crumble for dessert is a must order. Anything cooked on the open fire grill is delicious. Very expensive but very good!

Great service. Good food; but in this town of amazing food, perhaps a little unimaginative. Feels massively overpriced, compared, again, to most of the great restaurants in Los Angeles.

This was by far one of the most premiere gastronomical experiences of my life. Chef Jordan and the staff have outdone themselves. This was also my girlfriend’s birthday and we felt so honored and celebrated. May this concept live on as one of L.A.’s most premier restaurants.
