la locanda del pozzo In Capua

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).
