Il Cappero in Trafford

Booked to go here tonight to celebrate granddaughters a level results only to find find they were closed .. . Booked 3 weeks ago , would have been nice to have been informed that they were close!!@ We went to Dolmus Italia and had a lovely meal were very accommodating and had a lovely meal. We'll recommend.

Never again!!! Horrible, 3 from 4 sick this morning. Bruschetta joke! Arancini joke! Calamari joke! Waitress joke! Never again!

Yes best italian and decently priced. Tried their King Prawns ,Carbonara Garlic bread and of course Desserts which were home made apparently.

We went to Il Cappero with some family who were here visiting. From start to finish, the staff were fantastic. We needed room for a pram so they had moved a few things around to accommodate us very well. The waiter discussed the menu with us, answering all of our questions and gave several great recommendations. The starters were presented very well and tasted great! We got the garlic bread, arancini, duck salad and prawns dish. The portion sizes are great to share with a few people. The mains were lovely and we finished the dinner off with probably the best desserts I've had. You can tell that everything is fresh. I will be visiting again for sure! Thank you

It was Ok, nothing special. I have had better and I have had worse. It was very different compared to when we went a few months back. Dessert was better than my main meal. I had the lasagna, it was far nicer on my previous visit. The place is completely different also. It does not look like a Italian restaurant anymore, it’s really bright now and does not have that old vintage Italian feel to it anymore.

I haven’t been to this restaurant before but was invited by friends. I checked out the reviews before we went and I saw that it had new management, so I was unsure whether it would be any good. At first I thought it looked a little like a chain, but how wrong I was. The food was delicious and not at all processed, we had garlic bread with cheese and olive focaccia which was fresh and tasty, big fresh olives, not those cheap ones out of a jar, the waiter suggested honey and chilli dip, I was a bit sceptical but it was lovely. We had watermelon salad and mixed seafood to share followed by lasagne and a special vegetarian lasagne which wasn’t tomato based, it was like nothing I’ve tasted before but really delicious. We shared puddings with our friends, we had a pistachio tiramisu and a strawberry cheesecake desert in a glass. Overall I couldn’t fault it and we’ll be back again. Big thanks to the lovely staff for looking after us so well, they were really attentive, making recommendations that were all good.

This is my 4th visit to the restaurant. The portions were always very generous. This time it was very small plate of pasta. Also the original staff are not there. There was a lovely Italian lady who always used to talk to me, who does not seem to be there. The place is very different, it did not feel the same.

Fantastic Food!! Portion size amazing. Excellent service, staff were lovely . I would definitely recommend this place and will be returning.

Fab food good value £11.95 2 courses... couldn't have managed anything else! Garlic bread with tomato huge and the mushroom risotto excellent

We had an evening meal at Il Cappero in April 2024 on a Thursday afternoon on their early bird menu. The food was amazing, even though we ate from the early bird menu the portions were generous and everything we ate was very tasty and all of the food was piping hot. It was such good value. We aren’t local and hadn’t been here before but would travel back to eat there again. Service was faultless and a special thank you to Sara & Fady.

Had such a lovely experience at this restaurant. Just wanted something to eat after my shift at work and ended up having a very pleasant dining experience. The decoration in the restaurant is so beautiful and has such a nice atmosphere. The service was amazing with the staff being very quick, welcoming, warm and authentic. The food was extremely good, the mushroom bruschetta was amazing and the lasagna for main was also beautiful. The service for the food was really nice and the server wound grind the pepper and sprinkle Parmesan to my personal liking until I said stop! The food was cooked and seasoned beautifully with a lovely presentation. The chef cares about his dishes and it showed! I wouldn’t change anything! Would definitely come here again with friends or family for a special occasion. The menu looked great and would love to try even more of their offerings! Highly recommend!

Amazing food and atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this restaurant, I have now been 3 times and will be coming back. The food was cooked fresh and delivered with a smile. Thank you so much.

Myself and my friend went here after the cinema and got the set menu which is excellent value for money. The food was delicious and the portion sizes are huge, so much so we couldn’t eat it all and they gave us the rest to take away. I had the mushrooms for starter and lasagne for main, I couldn’t fit a desert it but they looked great. The food was fresh and service was great. We are looking forward to going back here again

We visited twice in late March, first on a Saturday evening, and had a lovely experience on that occasion, not cheap but worth what we spent, were well looked after by a chap called 'Shan' ? Second visit last weekend for Brunch was not as enjoyable and a step down, from our welcome until we left. Different staff members on duty. I had ordered two bottles of Moretti, two halves arrived, normally bottles at the table and poured! I realise the venue is relatively new, and the decor etc is lovely, it's a shame on both occasions that it was so quiet. Can I suggest that the piped music is changed to something more Italian-sounding, instead of what one would hear in an hotel cocktail bar, might help create a better atmosphere. We intend to return despite a disappointing second visit.

Poor starters, awful mains and a tasteless dessert. Why it has high ratings I do not know! We had all been looking forward to visiting the restaurant for a while. An expensive disappointment.

We had Bruschetta Al Funghi, Garlic bread with cheese and pollo pizza. All served hot, fresh and tasty! and yummy Biscoff cheesecake served with ice cream just because i asked for it and wasn't charged extra

Our first visit to this nice restaurant, prompt service and food was very tasty. Sadly we were the only four people in the restaurant all evening so there was no atmosphere but we still enjoyed ourselves. It was a Tuesday evening so maybe weekends are busier. The restaurant hasn’t been open long but hopefully good reviews will encourage more people to go. Don’t let the location put you off, it’s a short distance away from the market area and the main street in Altrincham but definitely worth a visit.

We were most impressed with decor and layout. Very comfortable chairs and spacious table. Staff were all very helpful, friendly and efficient. Food was totally delicious for all of our family. Would recommend Pollo Pizza, Calzone and Cannelloni Della Casa as main courses and Sticky Toffee Pudding, Profiteroles and Biscoff Cheesecake for desserts. Drinks were reasonably priced and plenty of choice. Lovely atmosphere.

the food was great especially the carbonara, 10/10 highly recommend , the steak was also amazing. the service was great the staff were so nice and made sure everything was okay at all times. very helpful and very cosy.

Lovely meal delicious food and really friendly and attentive service will be back . Salmon pasta was delicious and the staff are very welcoming.

Great food and excellent service from all staff. Simo looked after our table and was very helpful. Will definitely visit again.

Booked late but they squeezed us in. Food very tasty, friendly service, excellent range of choices - ordered Risotto Marina / sea bass Risotto, King Prawn Linguini and huge face shaped kids Margarita pizza. Puds great too
