We rented the air bnb above this restaurant which is owned by the family who owns the restaurant. The rental has a balcony that looks out over the harbor and down onto the restaurant. We stayed 5 nights and didn’t see much traffic at the restaurant during our stay. This was the end of April, so maybe the season hadn’t really started yet or maybe this is just a hidden gem. We decided to have a late lunch/early dinner and ordered the Greek salad with bread and a bottle of Greek white wine. For entrees we had the grilled octopus with fava bean puree and cherry tomatoes, seafood risotto, and baklava for dessert. My wife and I shared all plates. We are from Charleston SC and know about properly cooked seafood. This meal was perfect. The Greek salad was fresh as expected and the feta cheese wedges were amazing, also as expected. This island is known for food and this meal did not disappoint. The shrimp, squid and clams were plump and juicy and not overcooked, which was a pleasant surprise. The risotto was perfect al dente with the faintest appearance of a crunch, again, perfection. The octopus was fresh and tender, not overly chewy, and fava bean puree, a staple of Naxos, was good. The cherry tomatoes were the sweetest we’ve ever tasted. The baklava dessert was absolutely next level! Just look at the pic. The desert was served with Chios Mastiha on ice, a digestif distilled on a small island named Chios just of off the coast of Turkey. The drink was so perfectly sweet and the spot-on compliment to the amazing baklava dish. The meal, including the bottle of wine, was 85 euros. In Charleston, this meal would have been twice that amount with a 20% tip expected on top. This price doesn’t expect a tip although we typically tip 10% over here with good service. Give this place a try. You won’t be disappointed!

This was my best meal since I arrived in Greece a week ago and I’ve had delicious food daily. We had a red sangria that was semisweet. We ordered the crab tartare as a starter. It was fresh with a good mix of flavors: crab on an avocado bed with tomato, olives,and celery . I ordered the seafood linguini. The squid was not chewy. It was perfectly cooked along with the shrimp and mussels. They brought a container of Parmesan so I could continue to add it throughout my dining experience. My husband ordered the stuffed squid. It was stuffed with tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, and delicious seasonings. The squid was full of flavor! I highly recommend Capriccio if you go to Naxos!

I was in Naxos only one day and eating here made it totally worthwhile! We tried (and recommend) blue crab tartare, the fresh homemade pasta with clams/mussels, the stuffed calamari and the original grilled octopus with beet sauce ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Highly recommend for celiacs or those who need gluten free food; we ate here twice during our stay. The menu is well-labelled for dishes containing gluten, and they can make most of the pasta dishes with gluten-free spaghetti. The staff are very aware and sensitive to gluten, and also very friendly and welcoming. And the food is good! 5 stars all-round!

This is a great restaurant if you want to try Greek seafood. The location is great as it is right on the port. The staff is extremely friendly and offer recommendations. They also offered us Greek dessert and drinks on the house.

Greeted with a warm welcome by a super polite gentleman. The customer service was exceptional, just like the food. Brilliant flavours, good portions and I love the touch of providing plenty of cheese next to my pasta. Certainly worth a visit!
