Capri Restaurant & Bakery

In my futile search for authentic and good Cuban fare in West Palm Beach, I have reached the point of surrender. I found Capri while searching for Cuban food. I took my grandchildren, I thought that they would get a kick out of a place that is a hangout for older Cuban men playing Dominoes.
We ordered Café con leche, it came in an aluminum cup, I thought it was a nice touch. Café con leche is supposed to be served in a way that the patron customizes his drink. Nobody asked if I wanted sugar or not. Did I want it dark or light. The girl served it her way, let me put it this way; it was sooooo sweet that it was like drinking a cup of Robitussin cough syrup.
We ordered a couple of meat empanadas, they were fried, I prefer baked but the problem is that it only had at most a teaspoon of filling and it was drenched in oil. Not good.
Like everywhere in this city, the croquetas are the frozen packaged ones that you can find at the supermarket.
Please, I beg any of the Cuban restaurants to step up their game, Cuban food can be very delicious, but the best Cuban food in Palm Beach County and is no better than the very worst in Miami. I read some of the reviews and I wonder if those that give a positive reviews really know what quality food looks or tastes like.
The service was so mediocre that it bordered on bad service. Totally unprofessional.
I am beyond frustrated!
I give up.

Very quaint little restaurant off the side off southern Blvd, few blocks away from I95. Parking is little tight but manageable– in the morning you will probably walk past tables filled with older gentleman huffing under their breath while they play dominoes and such. I love that feel :)
Haven’t been here since I was a little girl, dad knows when I’m around this part of town I stop by the familia to grab my cuban sandwich (bodega store literally right next door). Capris has the homey feeling of walking into grandma house in the early afternoon, with colorful pictures and flowers. It gives you the vibe of being welcomed. The restaurant has high top wrap around bar setting and little tables in which you can choose to grab your food. The counter has a variety of pastries and quick ready to take homes too. I am assuming you can call ahead to pick up and go too. I saw at least 3 people walk in come to the counter and leave quickly!
Dad and I split a regular Cuban sandwich– mozzarella cheese, ham, and pork roast, with pickles mustard and mayonnaise (well pressed or all the way) I make no changes to the delicious traditional sandwich. I also ordered a mamey shake which a a fruit blend with milk, it was perfect ;one of my favorite drinks I catch when I am having a light lunch. Since we were extra enthused on grabbing a quick bite we also ordered tostada, (Cuban bread pressed with butter) and a chicharon (friend pork chunks).
I paid $ 11.56 for everything and that is I shared with my dad :) great lunch opportunity, will invest in having a bite here with friends whenever they ask what’s good if they want something light, fresh and original!

Disgusting. Food from off the floor. I went there for my first time before work at 6:30am to get coffee a pastry. I was the only one at the counter ordering and it was like pulling teeth, the lady wouldn’t quit talking I was staring at her like wtf. As I was getting my coffee a girl carrying some glazed pastries on a tray around the counter to put in a case, one slipped off the tray onto the floor, she looked at me as I was staring, she put the tray on a table and leaned down to grab it. I thought she was going to set it aside to throw out. Nope she put it back on the tray and slid it into the case, even though she saw me watching her. If a worker would do that in front of a customer I could only imagine what the do in the back with the food. I will never go back.

Well, I live right down the street and I’m a regular Americana. But when friends come into town, they HAVE to eat here-it’s so funny! Gotta get their Cubano fix and they’re Americanos too. But anyway, it is a little slice of Cuba, the ambiance makes you feel that way. But, seriously, the service is so hit-​or-​miss! AND… if you don’t speak Spanish or have a translator, they will not understand. You need to have some Spanish words in your language word bank part of your brain or, oh well. The orange juice is made fresh right there-​they want to add ice, I say no so it comes out room temperature. Who cares because it’s probably fresher than the ice. If you HAVE TO HAVE another type of bread («pan») toasted other than what they serve you at breakfast (which my friend HAS TO HAVE-​lol! they call it «tostada») but here it could be anything they want to give you which is usually the toast that regularly comes with the breakfast :-/​
All in all, decent breakfast joint or if you have to get your Cuban breakfast/​coffe/​pastry fix.

Whenever I visit West Palm Beach, Capri is always my first stop! I always order the same thing: Pan con Bistec + Café con Leche. The steak sandwich is simply perfect: the fresh baked bread that holds everything together, the perfectly cooked steak with caramelized edges, and the toppings (with the star being the potato sticks). The portion is huge, the service is friendly, and the price is right (~$ 6). I love washing it down with some Cuban coffee– they really get it right! Maybe next time I’ll try something else, but if it’s not broke, don’t fix it, right?

This place is very expensive for what you are getting. The food is above average but way to pricey. The services is a hit and miss, you could either get good or bad services, you will never know. This place is very close to my job which is very convenient but that’s about it.

Staff was very friendly. Authentic Cuban food for a great price. I had the cuban sandwich w/​cuban coffee. the sandwich was decent, the coffee was delicious. service was quick and kind. I wouldn’t go out of my way to return, but if you’re in the area. It’s not bad.

good Cuban food. Very noisy outside though. kinda like a street food atmosphere. The tostones could be made a lil better. They also serve food that isn’t Cuban… Like tacos n fries. Do not order the fish critter or the empanadas that are displayed. Cheap for a reason. However If you order a real dinner there you will be getting a very good meal for a decent price. Eat n go type place…

Ok cuban food and service with an attitude maybe just come back for café con leche only!

I always come to this place when in town for beans, rice and eggs for breakfast. It is not on the menu, but they gladly serve what I order. I love the fish dish, and other Cuban delights. Today, when I got there they were playing loud music that was deafening — hurt my ears. May have been because of 4^th of July, but my cousin said that someone had sued the business for disturbing the peace with loud music that can be heard from the street and neighboring business. Why not at least turn it down so it does not break your eardrums? Be a good neighbor and be considerate of others without blaring rhythms.

This is Cuban coolville!!! The food is like mom used to make and the place is authentic. I’m sure to be back often.

This is an authentic, homey, Cuban restaurant. Food very good, but surprisingly limited menu without my favorites, roasted chicken or stewed pork. But what we did have was fresh, generous, very good value, and good service. It is bright and diner/​cafeteria like in a not too pretty setting in a parking lot facing Publix but looks like it has a strong and loyal local clientele.

Poor service — wait staff either do not speak English or barely do. Food is marginal to unacceptable at best. Very inexpensive with generous servings but the food is simply not good by any measure. Obviously caters to repeaters whose first language is not English. Very loud and noisy and not even basic service is provided — like no glasses with canned or bottles drinks. Music is almost unbearable. One couple got up and left because it was sooooooo loud while we were there.
Perhaps we went on an off-​time but I suspect that, at their best, the food is just tolerable. Very loud guests were having fun but ruining the dining experience for others. Lots of heavy smoking going on at the tables outside and the smell wafts in — hard to walk through if you do not like cigarette smoke. There are wonderfil hispanic restaurants in the area but this is not one of them.
Small, crowded and unappealing. Yuck!

The service was great, very attentive. However the food was just okay. The kids liked their steak & fries but my rice with chicken lacked some flavor. I also tried a pastellito de carne which was good in flavor but the pastry was a little burned.

Definitely worth a visit. Prices are out-​of-​this-​world cheap and the quality of food is terrific. I think it’s best for breakfast. You can feast on terrific Cuban pastries, breakfast platters, orange juice and coffee for less than $ 7/​person easily. It’s on some famous Miami-​to-​New-​York Cuban bus tour. I need to look into this…

Love, Love, Love the Pollo Sandwich! Made with authentic cuban bread, marinated chicken, lettuce, tomato, sauteed onions and potato sticks. This is THE best chicken sandwich EVER! I love cuban food, and this place is great! Everything I’ve ever eated here is delicious and the wait staff are so friendly and helpful. Try the fresh squeezed orange juice. It tastes exactly like it did when we pulled oranges from our tree in the backyard as kids.

Excellent Hispanic diner hidden in plain sight on Southern Blvd. Amazingly affordable (5 stars in this department!) eatery that specializes in hearty home-​cooked meals.
The ropa vieja (literally ‘old clothes’) was fabulous, consisting of shredded flank steak in a tomato sauce, black beans, yellow rice, plantains and fried yuca. Mmmmm…

I just don’t think it gets more authentic… of course I haven’t actually been to Cuba nor am I Cuban but I really do stand by my opinion. :) My fave: the Cuban sandwich… a little slice of heaven. Hubby’s fave: café con leche. The menu has a good deal of variety but I do so love that sandwich. I had ropa vieja once and it was very, very good. It’s right off of the highway so not picturesque but if you want to sit outside and have a coffee and a cigar/​cigarette they have ample seating. Capri’s is about an hour away and I need one of those sandwiches NOW!!!:

Saw this shack before we got into palm beach island for our honeymoon at the breakers. and i was excited. he was just annoyed.
my husband calls this the «dysentery» since he figures he’s gonna get dysentery from eating here — well, whatever. let him eat his blah sub sandwich while i have my roast pork and rice and black beans.
this place is no Havana (the restaurant) but what they serve is pretty good. it is definitely cheaper than what you get at the breakers. can compete in taste (but not in presentation. haha)
its good, its cheap, it almost feels like a different country inside.
there’s really nothing much to eating in this part of florida besides fast food and expensive restaurants. this is one of the restaurant that fills that in-​between void, in quite a deliciously satisfying way.
