About
Waltham wasn’t always on the culinary map. But when Il Capriccio began racking up awards in the early ‘90s, knowledgeable foodies beat a path to this 128-belt suburb – and not all of them were computer geeks, either.
Today, chef-owner Rich Barron and his partner Jeannie Rogers run what is widely acknowledged as one of the best destinations for Italian food and wine in the country. Among awards too numerous to be listed here, Il Capriccio has been awarded Wine Spectator’s Award of Excellence countless times. Credit Rogers, a world-class sommelier and devotee of Italian reds.
