My husband and I were on our way home from Shinjuku when we passed by this restaurant, with various Italian dishes displayed in its window. We could not help suddenly feeling hungry as the food looked so enticing and appealing to our senses, so we decided to get a quick early dinner before heading home. Capricciosa Italian Restaurant is just a short walk away from the East Exit of JR Shinjuku station. We surely went home with satisfied tummies and an unforgettable experience, as Capricciosa surely met our expectations.

An Italian restaurant at Shinjuku Station

Pizza! Pizza! Pizza! It was good, except for some burnt areas on the bottom crust.

This "Buon Appetito" greeted us from our seats. It means "Enjoy your meal!" in English.

Several foreigners were in the restaurant; some were on tour, while others just met at the place to teach English to Japanese students.

The various pictures of food were so enticing, we had a hard time deciding what to get.

Different tropical tea flavors that felt so refreshing to our taste buds, soothing all the other senses in our body...

Their vegetable salad topped with my favorite olive slices was indeed a delectable appetizer. We did not regret ordering it.

Then we were served with complementary coffee and hot tea.

This is the entrance of the restaurant from outside.

When we passed by, their window display of different kinds of Italian dishes caught our fancy and made us feel suddenly hungry.
