Perusing the menu reminded us that Executive Chef Andre Poirot and his crew face the challenge of being a full-service hotel restaurant open seven days a week for breakfast, lunch and dinner to guests with a vast scope of tastes and appetites.
For big spenders, the headline act among dinner offerings is prime beef from Ruprecht’s of Chicago: 24-ounce bone-in Rib Eye Steak ($39.50), 16-ounce New York Strip ($36.50), and Filet Mignon in 12-ounce ($38.50) and 8-ounce ($33.25) cuts. The Veal Loin Steak is $40.50, Lamb Chops are $36, and the double-cut Pork Chop is $27.50.
Among options lighter on the stomach and the credit card are a couple of nightly fish specials and five Italian dishes including Chicken Parmigiana ($21.75) and Veal Piccata ($23.95). There are six pasta dishes, among them Fettuccini Alfredo ($18.25) and Wild Mushroom Ravioli ($23.95). The three pizza choices are priced under $14. An ample dinner could be made by pairing, say, Insalata Caprese ($8.95) or Minestrone ($4/$5.50) with a hearty appetizer such as Crab Cakes ($18.95).
As we were reminded by the waitress, Capriccio’s main courses come strictly a la carte. Sizing up the 10 side dishes, we chuckled at the notion of paying $6.25 for Creamed Sweet Corn. Then we splurged on the Sauteed Spinach ($8) and Sauteed Wild Mushrooms ($8). Served in shallow soup bowls that hogged table space, spinach and mushrooms were flavorful — although Marcia remarked that the chef might be chuckling about the high profit margin.
