Celebrating with a friend we were greeted warmly and treated well. Service was excellent and the staff very friendly and helpful. Food too was excellent, particularly the Angus steaks which were done to perfection. Would highly recommend.

Very welcoming staff, and very relaxed. Food was good definitely a meat eaters place as vegetarian options were limited. The ones they did have were well prepared.

All 3 of us enjoyed our main dishes. We had the sirloin, the beef fajitas and the skewered meat. Great service and good eats! Thanks!

I had a great black angus steak with fries, it came on a hot metal contraption. The pepper sauce was quite weak, felt pre-made and sorta stiff consistency, but the rest was great. Fries crispy and fresh.

The Fork discount was not applied at first and was only corrected after we reminded the waiter. The food was okay, but smoke from the kitchen made the air unpleasant. We also noticed that walk-in customers were offered sangria samples, while we were not, possibly because we used the Fork discount.

Their town was very nice executed our expectation we were worried that the restaurant isn’t very touristic area but actually it’s very lovely place and the food is delicious. The waitress was very helpful and very friendly and funny. We definitely go back.

Excellent food. I did have to ask for my steak to be done some more as it was a bit underdone, but it tasted great once it was brought back. Excellent friendly service and such a good deal with the Fork discount.

We had an amazing experience at Restaurant El Capricho. We ordered the salmon, fajitas, and different cuts of meat — everything was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The staff was incredibly friendly, and being able to speak with them in Spanish was a big plus for us. Great food, great service, and very competitive prices. Totally recommended!

The food is ok. Nothing special. And the meat of the burguer is very processed

I received a warm welcome and was looked after so well as a solo female traveller. The restaurant was beautiful with lots of little details around the place and some cracking Latino music so I was foot tapping along. The Gambas de la Plancha were delicious! I'd highly recommend them!

The Angus Steak straight from Argentina with lovely potato, house wine and wonderful staff made my stay memorable and I cannot wait to come back there. If one loves the high end quality and tasty meat El Capricho is the place to go.

The owner and the staff were the sweetest. They offered us a free shot before the meal. Grill was delicious, literally one of the best kitchen I've tried in Amsterdam. Food amount was also satisfying because most of the time we do not feel full after getting the order.
