11 reviews for Capri Deli & Pizza
Fantastic food, but a little pricy.. I'm a fan of the italian subs, and the pizza. The pizza by the slice is greasy, and delicious, but if you have the chance, order a whole pan pizza; it's incredibly better.
The place gets packed at lunchtime during the week, so plan to arrive around 11:30 or else you will be waiting in line out the door.
A good Italian sandwich for a reasonable price. They went a little nuts on the lettuce, but that was easily dealt with. If you're in the market for a freshly sliced deli sandwich and happen to be in Palatine, this place should be visited.
The Capri deli is a neat little place. The first time I was there, I went on the recommendation of a former employee.
On that first time visit, it was way after lunch time and not close to supper time. The owner was the only one there at the time, and I told him that a former employee had recommended I try the place. I hadn't had lunch and was planning on a quick early supper, so I ordered an Italian Sub to take home. The owner threw in a slice of pizza that was left over. I got home and put the pizza in the oven for a bit. It was ok even though it had been under the infra red lights at the deli for quite awhile.
Recently, I had contractors in re-doing my kitchen, and floors. they said I was in the way so I said I'd go out for lunch. I went to Capri Deli, which was somewhat crowded, but managed to find a table. I had ordered an Italian Sub, bag of chips and a can of Coke. All together, it was a little pricey for the type of place it is. I think it was around $12 for what I got.
The reason for the 3-star rating is this: I had to wait for what I thought was kind of long, for this kind of place [I ate 3/4 of my chips & drank half of my Coke] before my sandwich was ready. Also, there was something about the sub dressing that I didn't like. It had kind of a bitter after-taste, like maybe old oil or something. Other than that, the sandwich was OK.
If you've read my other reviews, you know I'm kind of stingy with the number of stars in the rating. I will probably go back there sometime, but not in the near term.
Our office goes for lunch at least once a week and we never, ever been disappointed. My favorite is the Antipasto salad. This salad is to die for, it's fresh ingredients, the house dressing and the nice fresh loaf of bread makes this a PHENOMENAL SALAD.
If I could eat a sandwich everyday for the rest of my life Mama Capri's Deli and Pizzeria would be the place from where I would get my fix. The freshness of their sandwich ingredients and breads are top notch. I ordered a 6" Italian sub, 4" focaccia sandwich, and a slice of sausage pizza for my family and it was more than enough food to feed the three of us. Honestly, I could have eaten the 8" focaccia sandwich because the 4" was great.
I will be frequenting Mama Capri's Deli and Pizzeria on every occasion I can.
This is my favorite Italian deli in the Chicago area. They've got delicious, fresh bread, perfect meats, and enormous portions. Seriously - this ain't Subway, your 6 inch sandwich will be enough to fill you up for the rest of the day. I can't even imagine eating a 12" sandwich.
Friendly, family owned, and they make their own bread and slice their own meat. Go there now!
TOP NOTCH SANDWICHES!!! There isn't much you can say about Capri besides Perfect. It is everything you could want in a sub shop. They also have a good pizza, a medium thickness(kinda like Tore and Lukes). The Italian Ice is excellent, the service is great, they food is delciious. I don't know what else you could want in a place. I found them a year or so ago when I was at home for a while and it was the best find ever. My wife loves it also. They are the best. Go Go Go!!!
This place would be the most awesome spot to regular if I was writing a book or something, it's so cozy, the people there are really adorable. Especially the owner, and the food is DELICIOUS!
A friend of mine had told me that he had never heard of the place and had gotten a sandwich from there that was so good it made him cry. He was joking of course but when he took me there for lunch one day I told him there were tears in my eyes. We split this turkey sandwich on facatta bread (sp??) which had tomatoes baked into it. It was absolutely delicious. the owner even had originally taken our orders which were 2 of these things and I forgot why but he just gave us the bigger bread and split it in half and made our sandwiches a little differently on the half. He saved us some money, it is a little bit pricey but it's worth the money. It's not McDonald's after all, this food is so fantastic.
I saw a few other people that were there eating pasta dishes of sorts as well, they have a huge menu and I look foreword to going back and sampling some more of it soon!
Agree with all the other reviews, this place is great. They give out cards and when you get enough stamps you get free food.
Okay...This is by far the yummiest place to grab an Italian sub. I am in Love with their Foccacia Bread. Not once have they dissapointed me. Meatballs are always delicious too. It really isn't a great place in regard to dining atmosphere, but the staff is really courteous and the food is to die for. Still my favorite sandwich spot- much better than any chain or other Deli in the country.
First of all, I must agree that the 6" sandwich will definitely fill you up for lunch, if not..you may need a gastric bypass. My friend says the pasta is excellent, but I usually get the same Italian sub every time I go there. A bit pricey for a sub, but the quality, flavor, and quantity cancels the price out!
