    Cappy’s is always my go to in San Antonio. Food is always good. Nice variety for both lunch and dinner. I had the Faroes Island Salmon with rice pilaf and sautéed spinach. It was very good….spinach had a bit too much butter and way too much much garlic, but it was still good. My friend had the fried shrimp and house veggies. The shrimp were huge and she loved the breading and chiptotle tartar sauce.

    Food and ambiance at Cappy’s was great. General Manager makes an effort to come by every table to make them feel welcome. Would recommend everything on the menu, but especially the mussels & fries!

    We have been to Cappy's many times over the years. It is the perfect "special occasion " restaurant for us. The food is fresh and delicious and there is an excellent wine selection. The service is attentive without feeling rushed.

    They were out of eggnog! I can’t imagine! Some of their fish didn’t arrive. We were there after the lunch rush and service was slow. The food was great. My Caesar Salad was delicious as was the pate. Everyone enjoyed their food. Our server was very nice. It was god, but the experience wasn’t what I’ve come to expect at Cappy’s over the years. I’m sure it was just a one- off experience. I’ll definitely return.

    The food, halibut and prime rib, was perfect as usual. Service was good, nothing at all to complain about, just not quite as friendly as what we normally experience. Noise level is high enough to make conversation a little difficult at times but this is a busy, friendly place and that is to be expected. We will never stop coming back!
