What a hidden Gem! Caffino has amazing food and the decor is great! I had the calamari and veal and it was amazing. We split the Maria pizza which was also very good. Decent prices and I'm told the Gnocchi was amazing as well.
food was so so good and really good portion sizes. calamari was perfect! definitely recommend if close to budwiser stage or tfc stadium.
My recent outing with two coworkers at Caffino left me with mixed feelings about the establishment. While the staff's friendliness was a highlight, the culinary offerings fell short of expectations.
Service and Ambiance: From the moment we walked in, the staff at Caffino greeted us with warmth and courtesy. The inviting ambiance set a comfortable tone for our evening, and the attentive service was a definite plus.
Culinary Lows: Unfortunately, the food we ordered did not match the initial positive impression. The calamari, while promising, was marred by an excessive amount of salt that overshadowed any other flavors. The caprese salad, typically bursting with the freshness of tomatoes and basil, fell short in delivering a memorable taste experience. Even the pizza, a staple at many restaurants, failed to impress with its mediocrity.
Inconsistent Espresso Martini: Ordering an espresso martini, I was met with an unexpected inconsistency between the two drinks. The first one I received seemed to lack the vibrancy that defines this classic cocktail, making me wonder if it had been sitting ready for some time before being served.
Silver Lining: Amidst the culinary disappointments, the one redeeming factor was undoubtedly the staff. Their friendly and accommodating demeanor added a touch of warmth to an otherwise lackluster dining experience.
Final Thoughts: Caffino, while showcasing an inviting ambiance and welcoming staff, fell short in terms of its culinary offerings. Over-salted calamari, a lackluster caprese, and an inconsistent espresso martini left us wanting more from our dining experience. While the atmosphere and service were commendable, the subpar food quality makes it difficult to fully recommend this establishment for a satisfying dining outing.

What a fantastic meal and experience! The decor is out of this world and once greeted inside you are made to feel like family! The food was amazing and authentic! The drinks were perfect. Our waiter Marco was so so personable, making amazing suggestions. The owner Roas was so personable, especially with our kids !
Can’t wait to return :) what an experience!

Located in the Liberty neighborhood within an old industrial building, Caffino provides as wonderful surprise reveal as you pass through the wrought iron gates and into an innocuous door...a casual yet dressy bohemian inspired decor with a truly classical Italian menu. The first area as a bar and bistro seating area with views of the open kitchen, which you pass through into the main dining area surrounded on three sides with bright airy French pane windows. A wonderful eating environment.
We order a Caesar salad and Caprese salad (both very good) which is accompanied by complimentary fresh baked bread season with olive oil and rosemary (very delicious). For our mains we had pappardelle ragu, spaghetti carbonara, and linguine alle vongole (all of which were excellent) ending with a traditional tiramisu (also excellent although it had a bit too much cocoa power topping for my taste). All in all an excellent meal.
Service was on point with a charming wait staff who were attentive and prompt. Definitely a winner if you are looking for classic Italian cuisine. Enjoy!

This is a new gem 💎 we just founded it. Amazing food, ambiance and service! We loved it there and have such great time. We were there before the TFC game but we actually want to go back and have more time to enjoy the delicious food. Everything we ordered was really good. Price was reasonable and the quality surpassed any expectations.
This place is a hidden gem. The entrance is tucked away alongside of a factory building and it's like you enter into a new atmosphere. Our server was very clear with the current specials and made us feel welcomed. I ordered the rigatoni tenderloin pasta and my boyfriend ordered the shrimp rose pasta special. Both pastas were cooked perfectly and the sauce was immaculate and not too overpowering. We also both ordered espresso martinis and a charcuterie board as an appetizer. I highly recommend the cocktails because they pack QUITE the punch.
