Yeah I asked For A Chicken Cesar Salad and when I got my order in they gave me a Tuna Salad with cranberry’s I dislike cranberry’s and my cousin got pissed at the server because she saw that they do indeed have Cesar salads and I specifically asked for one with chicken on top and yes the other people working or not working were yelling laughing and speaking other languages that I could not understand and the lady who took my order said we don’t have Cesar salads and that’s when things get hard and she finally took my order and I also ordered a grilled cheese that was pretty good the cheese was rich and gooey which I like! I did tell the server to not waste food and eat the incorrect order but she threw it away! My cousin is gluten free so that’s the only reason why she liked the place! I wasn’t expecting it to be like a mini supermarket! The atmosphere is nice I do have to say! When the Salad Finally came it was good! My cousin tried a piece of chicken and she said it tasted Great! I found capers in my salad I’m not a Fan of them

Definitely avoid this place if you have a gluten allergy. The gluten free "pizza" is just a tortilla with some cheese on it, and the flatbread is that same tortilla cut into strips. Meanwhile, the gluten pizza is completely bland. The manager was at least nice enough to give us a break on the bill for the sub-par experience.

Our lunch was excellent. The menu is very transparent about gluten free and vegetarian options with multiple choices.

This was my first time to Capella's and I loved the atmosphere! What a cute spot and the decor was perfect. We started off with the Meatballs, Burrata and Brussel Sprouts & Aged Parmesan with Balsamic. Both were delicious but the Burrata & Brussels dish was my favorite starter. I wish I could have tried the Arancini but the menu was different than what I had viewed online. For my entree I ordered the Rigatoni Vodka with Ricotta Gnocchi instead and it was delicious! I loved the additional of the peas and onions but the sauce had an amazing spice to it! My coworker got the Truffle Cheese Wheel Pasta and it was delicious! Very rich bit definitely a must try! For dessert we had the Canollis (3 to and order) which were non-traditional. I enjoyed the shell more than the citrus cream filling. The menu was wonderful with tons of variety. Next time I will be trying the salmon! The service was awesome but sporadic once they got busy. The runners/bussers ended up servicing our check and retrieve it once payment was in place. Loved the teamwork and the overall experience was great! The gluten free pasta options were incredible also!!

Great, quality Tai dining with a very friendly staff. The manger Paul is very customer focused as is the staff at the tables and in the separate bar area. Many regulars, as the dishes are healthy, with a light, clean taste and they have delicious, gluten free dishes if you'd like that. Flower Cups are a great, light appetizer and from spicy to light, we always find something consistently delicious.
