Amazing experience at Caprice tonight in an intimate setting for two. Delicious soups to start the evening with the perfect French bread and olive oil combination! Next the main dishes were scrumptious with the yummiest mash potatoes and veggie combos. The French Rose was a lovely accompaniment to this meal and reasonably priced. To top off the night was one of the most delicious dessert we have ever tasted!!! Nick took great care of us too! Can't wait to go back!!!

I went to Caprice for dinner last night and it was amazing! I sat at the bar and had a glass of wine. I had a delicious salad starter, delicious main meal, and dessert! Kat, my server and bartender, was amazing! She had great service for everyone in the bar and lounge. Caprice has a great atmosphere. Candle lit and small lights. Highly recommend dinner here.

This place was so romantic! It is good date night spot, upstairs near the windows.
The seafood was so delicious. The Waterzooi was the star of the show! The mussels were awesome because of the curry sauce and were presented beautifully. The French onion soup had the best cheese but, the broth itself could have had more flavor. The French white wine was a great compliment to all the food.
Overall, we had a great experience and the service was 10/10, thanks to Drew!

I have been coming to this restaurant for years and each time I go I am reminded why I keep coming back. Patricia, the hostess and owner, is very warm and inviting when you come in. The food is excellent. I highly recommend their specialty seafood stew, waterzooi as well as the escargot but any dish I’ve ever had there has been wonderful. The night we went they had a halibut special which was cooked in a shrimp sauce and had such a great flavor. I’m already looking forward to my next visit here!

Great little Bistro tucked into the middle of downtown. One of the owners greets and seats you with great warmth. The service, our server was amazing, is very attentive and knowledgeable. The menu has some of the well known French favorites but is a bit Americanised. Was hoping for some more adventuresome French but what we had, French onion soup, pate, escargot, a lovely French seafood dish and a rich saucy flounder dish were excellent. It's been around forever so they are doing it right! We will return!!

We had a wonderful dinner experience at Caprice Bistro yesterday evening. Our server, Nick, provided great service including recommendations from the menu and specials. The food was all delicious from the chilled carrot soup to the crème brûlée and everything in between.

What a perfect family night/date night it was at caprice bistro. Food was great, service was friendly and the vibes were that old town feel. Highly recommend.

An absolute local gem! Gorgeous French meal - just like sitting in a Parisian bistro but in the heart of Wilmington. Cozy ambiance / vibe. The meal starts with fresh, warm baguette and high quality olive oil + balsamic. We ordered family style with a mix of apps (crepe and escargot) and entrees (lamb, beef bourguignon, and waterzooi). Can’t wait to return to try more menu items - each visit can be a new adventure of taste and flavor. We loved hearing the history of the restaurant, the chalkboard drawn map showing where in France / Belgium the owners/chefs are from, and seeing the owners at work in the restaurant until closing, then watching them leave together holding hands. Our server was also very kind, friendly, and engaging and gave us great menu recommendations that we followed. We also greatly appreciated the ease of booking on Open Table. Thank you Caprice, here’s to many more years!

Caprice Bistro is me and my husbands go-to restaurant! We love their duck, their French onion soup, their rabbit sausage & I order their steak. Never have had a bad meal there. Their deserts are so yummy & flavorful & we love the “sofa lounge” part! You can make a reservation or try for the bar or sofa lounge if you don’t have reservations!

Food was delicious and service was excellent. We had waterzooi, escargot, house special flounder and gratin leek. Leek was okay, rest were excellent. The base(broth) for escargot and waterzooi was creamy and had great flavor. They have variety of alcoholic desserts as well. We settled for crème brûlée and it was nice !

We went upstairs and sat on the couches to enjoy a simple dessert and espresso martini. It was a smaller quante setting with a beautiful ambiance. We did a search for the best creme brulee and they didn't disappoint!

From booking the reservation to getting seated by the host, being attended to by the energetic waitress were all 5 stars! Food was absolutely delicious!! I’d highly recommend this place! I has the swordfish and it was super yummy!

Short walk from Wilmington River walk..we went here for a weeknight dinner. They specialize in French cuisine and are well known for escargot and waterzooi. We tried them both and loved them. We also ordered the leek au gratin which was the special for the day. The gratin was ok. We ended the meal with the creme brulee..which was one of the best we had. Costed us $97 for a weeknight dinner for two. In all a great experience and we would love to go back during our next trip to Wilmington.
Our only observation, with no direct relation with the restaurant was that we found the downtown area a little sketchy after dark and we didn't find any near by street parking and had parked 4 blocks away. Multiple people on the street tried to talk to us as we were walking back to our car, which made us a little concerned.

Superb! I celebrated my 60th Birthday here. The wait staff is excellent and attentive. Reservations are recommended. Had the Escargot in a garlic, cream sauce, lamb cassoulet and cream brûlée. Thank you Caprice fBistro and Nick my waiter for making my 60th birthday special.

With lots of dining options in Wilmington, only the best will stand the test of time and Caprice is one of those. Excellent French cuisine and quality service. The Escargot Petits Gris appetizer was excellent, the toasty French bread for dipping into the sauce made it even better. The Waterzooi house special is an assortment of fish and seafood in an herb & cream broth - superb! My wife had the a Gazpacho soup special (not pictured) and the Duck Confit as an entrée, loving both dishes. Our waiter Drew was knowledgeable with regard to the dishes and provided great service. Though our bill was over $100/person, that included cocktails upon arrival, a bottle of wine, and an after dinner desert wine. You can enjoy an excellent meal here for about $50/person and I highly recommend you try Caprice Bistro.

Such. Perfect date night, great mood lighting, romantic candle light in the evening. Staff very kind, attentive, and helpful! Food was way better than I could have expected! Loved the crepe caprice, beef stew, and duck confit. Will definitely be back with friends!!

They allowed me and my wife to sit outside with our dog and toddler. It was a great view to watch the sunset on the river. The food was out of this world! I highly suggest the calamari, it was fried perfectly. The service was spectacular, they even brought out a water bowl for my dog! S/O to Nick he was our waiter and helped to make our night very special! We have to come again and try other things on the menu.
