Ristorante Gli Scacchi In Caserta

We loved it so much that we organized dinner there for our 25th wedding anniversary. The food was carefully prepared and high-quality, the service impeccable, the location charming, and the wine selection extensive. The staff was courteous and helpful. A huge thank you to Mr. Gino and his wife.

Amazing food, fantastic vegetable antipasto, delicious primo, secondo … excellent choice of wines and tasty digestives …

I went there with friends on a Saturday for lunch after visiting the palace. I chose it because it was close by. When we entered, Gino, the owner, welcomed us. There were 12 of us, and we ordered two appetizers: a vegetable garden and a selection of cured meats; for the first courses: Gragnano paccheri with cod and cherry tomatoes, purple potato gnocchi with cheese and truffle, and ricotta ravioli with artichokes. All washed down with a good rosé. Homemade desserts. What can I say? Everything was perfect, from the deliciousness and quality of the food to the helpfulness of the owner and staff. Beautiful location. Prices were reasonable. Well done, Marilena, the chef we wanted to meet. I recommend it.

The best restaurant to eat at in Caserta. The quality of every course and dish is unbelievable. Congratulations!

Elegant and well-kept, both in terms of the ambiance and the interior. A wonderful discovery.

An explosion of flavor and quality ingredients, enriched by the history of the 18th-century building. The staff is characterized by kindness, friendliness, and expertise, qualities that make Osteria "Gli Scacchi" in Caserta unique.

Amazing food, fantastic vegetable antipasto, delicious primo … Primitivo wine.. tasty digestives …
