Food is delicious, staff is very kind and helpful. We ate pizza and really liked the test. However, the service is very slow. We waited over 30 minutes only for 2 pizzas. You should be patient and not starving when you visit here.

I was looking for some dinner after a really long day, and decided to try cafe Capone. My French failed me, as did my English! The bar man and waiter were amazing, friendly and patient. I left with energy restored, a full belly and a big smile. It was also nice to sit and enjoy the local vibe, having spent the day dodging my fellow tourists. What a wonderful place to finish my up travels.

The best salad we've ever eaten in Paris followed by a giant chocolate mousse to share. Decaf coffee was no trouble. The staff were friendly and attentive. And the decor included a small but genuine Italian sports car in the middle of the floor.
