First, thank you to the whole staff - the ladies up front, the bartenders, the servers and bussers cleaning and clearing the tables. Everyone made our Valentine's Dinner awesome. The Fig bourbon is delicious. Trevor was a great waiter and was responsive to our table. 1st course - beef tartare for me and jumbo shrimp for my wife were great. 2nd course - she crab soup and the duck confit spinach salad were very tasty. Entrees - Salmon Oscar cooked beautifully as was my wife's broiled seafood platter. The mashed potatoes were very creamy and tasty. Dessert - the warm butter cake was delicious. Thank you again.

This was a Paris like experience. Our table faces the front door so that we could people watch. The place is pretty loud but in a bustling exciting way. My wife and I could still hear each other because we were right next to each other on a small round table. The food and service were impeccable from start to finish. We had a wonderful Valentine’s lunch today.

Capers on Main doesn’t look like much on the outside. To be honest, my wife and I were wondering if we had made a mistake as we pulled up but the parking lot was full and capers had come recommended. We got in and the dining room was about 80% full with a mix of couples and girl groups doing “gallentine”. Shortly after we were seated the piano man started playing in the lounge which is comfy with a nice fireplace. We got our drinks and here is where I knew we were in for a good experience. I ordered a martini with a twist. Most bartenders will be lazy and toss in a wedge, never mind that the wedge overpowers the martini and I drink too shelf but this bartender gave me to twist and even had a cool presentation for it skewered on a toothpick. My wife had a special martini from the house specialty menu. She ordered the blackened pasta and I had the crab cakes. Both were good, the crab cakes had a fruit sauce that was light and sweet, not overpowering and the crab cakes were mostly crab, almost no filler. The blackened pasta was decent. It’s a good choice if you don’t want to be overpowered with seasoning. For desert we had the crème brûlée. It was enough for 2 with a few bites left over. All in all we spent a hundred bucks plus tip and felt we got out money’s worth. Our waitress was very nice and had a great balance for not hovering but also not letting us linger with needs not fulfilled. Service very good.

It was our ten year anniversary so after ordering oysters (delicious!) and cocktails, we decided to order broiled lobster, which since they hadn’t updated the menu-they were not serving it. Okay, so we decided to go somewhere else. After explaining this to our amazing Server, O.D. He spoke to the Chef, Eddie. Eddie visited our table, apologized that the lobster was not available to be served the way we like, but he said that he would accommodate us and prepare it especially for us since it was our anniversary. He also served us a few complimentary dishes and a glass of champagne, too! The food was absolutely amazing, and we gave a generous tip to O.D in appreciation for going above and beyond. Chef’s kiss to Eddie and we will be returning.

La Grotta never disappoints. While the food is great, it is the service and pacing that makes the entire experience so wonderful. No pressure to order, no rushing you out after you’re done. Instead of just a meal, it becomes a wonderful event.
