Caprese Trattoria

Come here often and it is always rock solid. Recommend the gnocchi pomodoro, trout, pizza, tuna crudo, lasagna, …. always consistently excellent. Small but diverse wine program so I can always get something delicious that pairs with what I am having. Service always fast and friendly. Longmont is lucky to have this restaurant!

My wife and I wanted to try something new and came here a Saturday evening at 5 PM. We thought it looked rather upscale, so we were excited. We were able to be seated but the room was already rather loud, and we were less than three feet away from another table, which seems rather inconsiderate during a pandemic that has not been declared over with at all. I bet the tables weren't even more spaced out during covid earlier, which is irresponsible. I read other reviews saying this place was a little loud. That was sure the truth. It was quite loud and grew louded so that my wife and I were shouting at each other, yet we had been seated at the tiniest, 1.5 foot by 2.5 foot table for two. Two tiny people. I had to keep my elbows tucked in for lack of space as we were right next to the "aisle". We ordered our food after looking at a large menu. Our food came maybe 8 minutes later, if that. And it was busy. How did it come so quickly? And it was not hot, neither of ours were. She got the Potato Dumplings. She said it was a bit flavorless, but maybe we should have expected that? I got the chicken, pasta, and brocolli dish in garlic sauce. It tasted alright but it compared to Twisted Noodle, which is not great quality. The brocolli must have been brocollini but it was mostly thick stalks not cooked enough. The chicken was not great quality. Everything was a differenr temperature from each other like they had it pre-made and threw it together. The waitress was nice enough, so that was good. Just a bit of a letdown and more pricey. I made the same dish much better at home. I am Italian, after all. 😉

Hands down the best Italian food I have had in the states. Their in-house pasta and sauces are amazing. The ravioli and eggplant parmesan are worth mentioning. Even the gluten free pasta was delicious. We ordered 2 cocktails and both were perfect. The server was very good with recommendations and service. Highly recommend!!

LOVE this place! Really nice servers and comfy spot to have some really yummy food and their wine list is huge. The sauces are on point and the minestrone hits the spot. The meatballs are amazing, not mushy or grainy. The trout is super good too, reminiscent of salmon. I will come back as often as I can.

Bummed to leave this review. I have previously enjoyed some of my experiences here. But I brought my daughter in tonight & had a terrible experience. There was one offering for kids - a pasta. No other options. We try to feed our kid healthy & asked if we could get salmon for her. But they offered nothing to deviate from the fixed menu. Also there are no changing tables I. The restrooms. So I had to take my kid out in the cold to change her in the trunk of my car.
