Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Woodstock

Very nice ambience. It was a date night for us, but lots of families around us with young children which wasn’t a problem at all. The sounds of the open kitchen compensated for any noise the kids may have been making before the live music started. Once the music started, the noise level was still at level to carry on a conversation. We were in the middle back of the room. Music was at the front door near the bar. The food never disappoints. We had 2 appetizers, goat cheese ball and tuna tetake. Both fabulous! For the mains, I had the grouper. My husband had the crab cakes. Both excellent! We will definitely be back.

Great service and food at a good price. Bar experience was outstanding

Capers on Main doesn’t look like much on the outside. To be honest, my wife and I were wondering if we had made a mistake as we pulled up but the parking lot was full and capers had come recommended. We got in and the dining room was about 80% full with a mix of couples and girl groups doing “gallentine”. Shortly after we were seated the piano man started playing in the lounge which is comfy with a nice fireplace. We got our drinks and here is where I knew we were in for a good experience. I ordered a martini with a twist. Most bartenders will be lazy and toss in a wedge, never mind that the wedge overpowers the martini and I drink too shelf but this bartender gave me to twist and even had a cool presentation for it skewered on a toothpick. My wife had a special martini from the house specialty menu. She ordered the blackened pasta and I had the crab cakes. Both were good, the crab cakes had a fruit sauce that was light and sweet, not overpowering and the crab cakes were mostly crab, almost no filler. The blackened pasta was decent. It’s a good choice if you don’t want to be overpowered with seasoning. For desert we had the crème brûlée. It was enough for 2 with a few bites left over. All in all we spent a hundred bucks plus tip and felt we got out money’s worth. Our waitress was very nice and had a great balance for not hovering but also not letting us linger with needs not fulfilled. Service very good.
