Locanda del baccalà
Marcianise, Caserta
02/11/2025: What can I say, you are masters
02/11/2025: There were endless waits between dishes, but the absurd thing was that there was a set menu. The quality of the cod was extremely poor.

Il Magnifico
Teverola, Caserta
08/10/2025: I visited this restaurant with friends two years ago. I was impressed by the truly unconventional setting. I was also amazed and satisfied by the abundance of food and the price, which was truly in line with what we consumed and a good value for money.
So I considered bringing my wife and kids. You have to tour the restaurant, which is like a sort of underground and upper museum, packed, overflowing, and excessively full of objects. It might seem like a museum, it might even seem like the place of a serial hoarder, but once you've seen it, it's probably not worth it. In fact, most of the other diners preferred to sit outside.
While I was satisfied with the food the first time, this time I was truly disappointed. I wanted to choose à la carte, but the waitress recommended the €30 per person menu. According to her, this menu consisted of a sampling of first courses, a meat platter for four with side dishes, and the menu included soft drinks, dessert, and coffee, as explained.
Well, the first course samples ended up being a bowl of gnocchi, beans, and sausage, but the portion was tiny when divided among four diners. When the platter arrived, I was surprised by the time it took—it took so little to grill the meat, but from what I remembered, the side dishes were more numerous and plentiful. Instead, the platter contained a bed of salad that was cooked by the steam and heat of the meat, a single portion of French fries, and a small cup of pickled eggplant and broccoli rabe that was gone in three forkfuls. Under the meat was a stale focaccia, only the parts where the hot meat sauce had soaked it were edible. We waited quite a while, and after the verbal promise, we asked for the rest of the menu. The answer was that for dessert and coffee, the menu cost €35 per person! In the end, I can clarify that I spent €120 just for that platter and three Cokes on tap. I paid and we left disappointed. What was once a positive outlook on food has turned out to be a failure.
29/08/2025: A uniquely special place! The atmosphere is wonderful.
The dishes are rich in imagination, tradition, and above all, abundance.

Antica Osteria Duca d'Aosta
Pignataro maggiore, Caserta
08/10/2025: A pleasant surprise, we stopped by chance but it was absolutely worth it.
Typical local cuisine and excellent management; the owners were very kind and helpful.
For two, we ate a mixed house appetizer and two first courses of the day. With wine, coffee, water, and dessert, we spent about €50.
Highly recommended if you're passing through.
05/10/2025: There were 13 of us (including 6 children) today. The owner was incredibly kind and offered a warm welcome like no other, telling us to "make yourself feel at home," and we truly felt that way.
The food was delicious, catering to all tastes: children, vegans, and those with intolerances... if we're ever in the area again, we'll definitely go back.

Mya Fiaschetteria
Cesa, Caserta
29/08/2025: Seems to no longer exist.
We found the doors locked Friday evening.
Everything inside was a mess.
26/03/2025: This is the only restaurant in Cesa, a hamlet of Marciano della Chiana. It's only open in the evenings, from Thursday to Sunday, and you need to book. But it's worth it. I've only been there once with my husband, but I was happy with everything. The presentation, the food, the service, and the owner is really nice and kind. There should be more restaurants that make you feel at home.

Pizzeria I Masanielli
Caserta, Caserta
03/05/2025: Siamo arrivati da Napoli per provare questa rinomata pizzeria ma non mi ha entusiasmato, nei pressi dell’uscita Autostradale Caserta Nord, ha parcheggio adiacente ma può trovarsi spazio anche lungo la strada, dopo la prenotazione fatta un mese prima con carta di credito a garanzia 🫤, siamo entrati all’orario prestabilito, ambiente cupo e senza luce, personale disattento nel servizio, la pizza è discreta ma venendo da Napoli non ho trovato nulla di superiore alle rinomate pizzerie napoletane.
03/05/2025: Siamo stati ieri sera a cena.Locale pieno già dall'attesa.Ho trovato un locale troppo scuro in un posto discutibile e con aria condizionata a palla.Pizza buona,ma nulla da poter dire ci ritornerei e a dire il vero,in zona ci sono altre pizzerie migliori.La marinara in tre cotture,buona,ma non issima..olive amare ed anche stracarica di aglio.La nero corbara incommentabile..con una fettina di provola(stile silano) e null'altro di particolare.A mio avviso nulla di eccellente,buoni i fritti fatti con prodotti di qualità.Insomma nulla che mi faccia pensare di riandarci,anzi!Prezzo in linea con il nome,ma non con la qualità.Consiglio di provare altro.

MidnightCafè
Lusciano, Caserta
01/11/2025: Everything was excellent, with remarkable attention to detail. We ordered this gluten-free pancake with a fresh chocolate flavor, and it was incredibly fluffy.
11/10/2025: A million miles away from the midnight hours of yore.
I ordered a baiocco pancake and a slice of cake. The result? A pre-cooked pancake reheated in the microwave with two crushed biscuits on top (not even remotely comparable to the photo on social media or the website), and a tiny slice of cake for the modest sum of €12 total.

Le Colonne Marziale
Caserta, Caserta, 20-30€
29/09/2025: We had a wonderful meal, delicious dishes, prepared with care and skill. Recommended for those seeking a fine dining experience.
The only downside was the atmosphere: the air conditioning didn't work as it should have, making our stay less pleasant. With some improvement in this area, the experience would be perfect.
13/09/2025: I went to Le Colonne – Chef Rosanna Marziale for a quick lunch, but the experience was anything but a "quick" one: full of surprises, flavor, and attention to detail.
Location & Atmosphere
The restaurant is located in Caserta, on Viale Giulio Douhet, near the Royal Palace; the Marziale family has run it for generations, maintaining strong ties to the Campania region. The atmosphere is elegant but not overly formal, welcoming; the service is professional, friendly, and attentive to every need.
Signature Dishes That Made Her Famous
Chef Marziale is known for some now iconic creations: Pizza al contrario (Pizza Upside Down), a fried mozzarella ball stuffed with basil tagliolini, and mussel soup in black mozzarella milk.
Our Experience (the dishes we tried)
Various dishes offered by the chef. Delicious
Pizza al contrario (Pizza Upside Down): excellent. Crispy, clean, well-balanced, with local ingredients (San Marzano tomatoes, DOP buffalo mozzarella, and cafone bread). I was truly satisfied.
Fried dough ball / stuffed mozzarella ball: I had very high expectations, and unfortunately, this dish fell a little short.
Desserts: Three different desserts, all excellent, but the dessert that blew me away was the fried dough ball with cocoa-infused buffalo mozzarella—a truly exceptional result: deep in flavor, with well-crafted contrasts, a must-try.
Staff and Hospitality
The waiter who served us was very professional: attentive, courteous, and present without being intrusive. I appreciated the moment Chef Marziale came to say hello: you can sense her passion, dedication, and humility, despite her success. She is an exceptional person who puts her heart into what she does.
Conclusion
Le Colonne is an experience not to be missed if you love innovative Campania cuisine, with a strong sense of place and ingredients. It's the kind of restaurant where every dish tells you you're in the right place, even if some expectations weren't entirely met (in this case, the fried pasta ball).
