Review summary

Capasanta, located near Pompeii's cathedral, specializes in contemporary seafood. Food quality is generally praised for its freshness and presentation, with specific mentions of excellent amberjack and salmon starters. However, some guests found portions small or overly salty. Service is largely described as friendly, professional, and attentive to dietary needs, though isolated complaints cite rude or impatient staff. The atmosphere is clean and well-maintained. Opinions on value are mixed; while many consider the prices fair for the quality, others find them high. Overall, it offers a solid dining experience for seafood lovers, provided one encounters the consistently positive service rather than the occasional negative interaction.
