The Capri was established in 1963 in the Eagle Rock section of Los Angeles by Joe and Helen Sams. They have a reputation for serving high-quality food at fair prices in a welcoming environment. Before turning over the helm to frequent diners from the neighborhood, the Thiels ran the eatery for 30 years.

Robert Fleming, a veteran of the restaurant business, restored "Capri Club" after a massive renovation and remodeling of the historic space. Capri Club provides a limited menu of traditional Italian Aperitivo food and cocktails. Chef Francesco Allegro, a native of Puglia, created the food menu, which goes perfectly with the large variety of Amari, cool Negronis, and traditional Martinis created by renowned beverage director and operational partner Nic Vascocu. This Negroni week relax and sip a glass of their classic or white Negroni cocktail, made with gin or mezcal along with some of their delicious food. You can also try their frozen Negroni which is super delicious and a favorite among customers.
