Rate-A-Restaurant, #25 in a series

Restaurant: Il Capriccio

Location: 1757 N. Vermont

Type of restaurant: Italian

They stipulated: Bring your own wine.

What we ordered: Zucchini with corn soup for both so we wouldn't fight over the last spoonfull; Black Tagliolini with Shrimp (Mike); Lobster Ravioli (Maria)

High point: The dishes were put together nicely, each with a distinct flavor. You know how sometimes when you go to an Italian restaurant and everything tastes the same but with a different shape of pasta? Not so here.

Low point: Even though we sat in the patio, I felt like we were the forgotten lone table in the back. The nice waitress was always late catching up to what should happen next as we wait patiently.

Overall impression: Reasonably priced, great food. The clientele seems friendly enough as we exchanged some small talk with the table on either side of us. Plus, BYOB is always a bonus.

Chance we will go back: Yes.
