B&B Oliveto

In a dining room with marble columns and flooring and enhanced by a beautiful grand piano, Rossana Marziale serves Mediterranean dishes that showcase the ingredients of Caserta and the Campania with a perfect balance of comforting classic flavours and creative modern ideas. Buffalo mozzarella takes pride of place here, presented in many different ways, including in some of the desserts.

One of the most attractive restaurants in the city centre, Sunrise occupies the ground floor of an old Bourbon palazzo, extending right to the back of the building where you’ll find the delightful “literary veranda” and, beyond the large windows, a beautiful outdoor space surrounded by a garden planted with citrus trees. The menu has an exclusive focus on fish, with a combination of classic options and light, modern dishes, while an entire page is dedicated to raw fish and seafood. The wine list includes several champagnes.

Nestled amid the verdant hills of the Upper Caserta region, this delightful restaurant is a real gem. Young chef Domenico Marotta serves surprisingly high-quality cuisine with a focus on local ingredients and vegetables (some from the restaurant’s own kitchen garden) which he transforms into modern, minimalist yet generous dishes which are anything but predictable, and are showcased on three tasting menus and a short à la carte. We particularly enjoyed the Leccarda-style pigeon, a reinterpretation of a traditionally Umbrian dish, in which every part of the bird is used. The sommelier/head wait

This restaurant with a discreet sign is situated in a small village overlooked by a splendid Norman castle. Meals are served either in the simple yet comfortable dining room or in the charming outdoor space in fine weather. The reasonably priced cuisine celebrates the sea in its many varied fish and seafood dishes, which range from pasta with shellfish or seafood to fish guazzetto (a tomato-based stew) with green vegetables and even raw fish options. Among the desserts, we particularly recommend the babà.
