About us
A Wonderful local Italian food restaurant
Julius N. “Cap” Capri, originally from Altoona, Pennsylvania, was appointed to supervise all civilian mechanics at what was then known as Greenville Army Air Base. During this time, Mama Capri began baking pizzas in her kitchen once a week for the “Yankees” stationed there, and soon the demand became overwhelming. After World War II, “Cap” decided to make Greenville his home, where the Capri family opened a cozy log cabin restaurant on Augusta Road. Capri’s Restaurant thrived, and today both “Yankees” and Carolinians alike can enjoy authentic Italian cuisine at any of our three locations.
