Caprial graduated from the Culinary Institute of America and in 1986 began working at Fullers Restaurant at the Seattle Sheraton Hotel. Under Caprial's direction, Fullers was a leader in Seattle's nouvelle cuisine, and in 1990 the young chef was honored with the James Beard Award for Best Chef in the Northwest.

In order to be closer to her family, Caprial and her husband John, also a chef, moved to Portland in 1992 and opened their own small neighborhood restaurant, now called Caprial's Bistro. Acclaimed for its eclectic Northwest cuisine.

Caprial and John Pence, award-winning restaurateurs, purchased Madison Kitchen in September of 2019 from Founder Jim Goodall. They will bring their decades of restaurant experience to the Kitchen. After 21 years in Caprial’s hometown of Portland running Caprial’s Bistro, writing multiple cookbooks, and Producing Caprial and John’s Kitchen for PBS they returned to Seattle five years ago. Caprial and John bring creativity and excitement to the kitchen in order to add to the amazing job Jim did over the last 5 years. They are very thrilled to be apart of this vibrant community and look forward to growing their business in such a supportive neighborhood.
