Our Story
A trusted Italian spot since 1983
On the lively edge of Groningen’s city center you’ll find Restaurant Capricio – a place where hospitality, craftsmanship, and a passion for food come together. What started as the dream of a close-knit family has grown into a beloved meeting spot, where generations gather to enjoy good food and warm hospitality.
Capricio is a true family-run business. For years, it was lovingly run by its founders, who poured their heart and soul into the restaurant. Their vision, flavors, and personal approach shaped Capricio into what it is today. Now the restaurant has proudly been passed down to the next generation, who continue the tradition with just as much passion and respect.
Pure Flavors, Crafted with Care
At Capricio, it’s all about the experience. From the moment you walk in, you’ll feel the familiar atmosphere that has defined the restaurant for decades. The scent of fresh ingredients, the satisfied smiles of our guests, and the warm welcome from our team – it’s more than just a meal, it’s about connection, pleasure, and relaxation.
Our kitchen is inspired by Mediterranean traditions, with a modern twist. From perfectly grilled meat and fish dishes to handmade pasta – every plate is prepared with attention and love. We work with seasonal produce and carefully selected ingredients, always with a focus on quality and origin.
Dining with Atmosphere in the Heart of the City
But Capricio is about more than just good food. It’s the place where you celebrate milestones, enjoy a spontaneous dinner with friends, or simply savor a glass of wine by candlelight. We don’t see our guests as customers, but as part of the Capricio family.
Whether it’s your first visit or you’ve been coming for years – at Capricio, you’re always welcome. Stop by, soak up the atmosphere, and discover why this restaurant has been a beloved spot in the heart of Groningen for generations.
