Caprizza is a casual, a la carte Italian ristorante in the Mission built around pizza and a full range of antipasti and primi rather than a fixed-course format. The antipasti run from bruschetta di pomodoro and beef carpaccio to mussels and clams, grilled octopus, and meatballs in sugo. Pasta covers linguine alle vongole, penne arrabbiata with shrimp, lobster ravioli, rigatoni with scallops, and spaghetti bolognese, alongside a Margherita pizza and entrees like chicken parm, baked pork tenderloin, and steak.
Regulars describe it as a neighborhood find — the kind of spot that gets talked up quietly rather than loudly — pointing to homemade-tasting pasta, attentive and personalized service, and value that holds up for both weeknight dinners and special occasions.
