Mariposa - Pizzeria e B&B — Restaurant in Capaccio Paestum

From the outside it doesn't really show what to expect. But once you entered through the gate, into the garden, you feel at home. They have a big parking lot where you can park your car, van or even motorhome between some big trees. You can sit inside, but we sat outside in the garden since the weather was great. For the kids there is a little playground and there are big trees that give some nice shade and nature feel to the big area. The food is no nonsense. It's good and tasty and the portions are very good. We had a starter and a main course and we had more than enough. The pizza's were good and we loved the Buffalo mozarella. And finally some bread that's not so dry and hard you can kill someone with it ;) we were told it's homemade and we can taste that: it's delicious! Prices for the food are good and not expensive at all. The guy who served us was very friendly and he spoke English. That was a very nice and welcome surprise, since most restaurants here don't have staff that speak English (or even try to bother to understand you). He really paid attention to all the guests to see if there was anything he could do. He even explained the dishes to us, to make us understand what we ordered so we wouldnt be disappointed. This is what service should look like! We had dinner in a "fancy" restaurant the day before and they could learn a thing or 2 from this guy :)

We really enjoyed this restaurant and we will try to return here one more time before going back home to try the desserts everyone is talking about in the reviews. Because after tasting their food we can only imagine it being very good! If you got the time, the opportunity, and an empty stomach, be sure to stop by. You won't be...

An unforgettable Italian experience 🇮🇹🍝

We visited this Italian restaurant and absolutely loved it. The food was outstanding! The Mariposa dish was a highlight — a beautiful variety of mini plates, each with different flavors and textures. It’s perfect if you enjoy tasting a little bit of everything.

The calzone was huge, packed with generous portions of delicious fillings. Every bite was incredible — warm, cheesy, and full of flavor.

The atmosphere was great overall — cozy and welcoming, and especially family-friendly. It’s a fantastic place if you have little ones, as it’s well set up for kids too.

Service was top-notch. The staff were super friendly and attentive throughout our visit.

Definitely a spot we’ll be coming back to. Highly...

Siamo andati in questo ristorante sabato sera, una comitiva di 10 ragazzi e ragazze che speravano di passare una piacevole serata. Andiamo per gradi: 1 appena ci siamo seduti al tavolo siamo stati invasi da blatte e insetti vari. 2 al momento dell’ordinazione (dopo una ventina di minuti di attesa) la “gentilissima” cameriera ha ben pensato con tono irriverente di suggerirci/ imporci di non modificare eccessivamente le pietanze perché “non le avrebbe accettate”…cosa che non avevamo intenzione di fare. 3 dopo vari errori, tra antipasti sbagliati e moltiplicati e pizze in più non richieste. Finalmente arriva la crème de la crème: antipasti misto di “art attack” e “com’è fatto” (con tanto di pollice della cameriera nelle zucchine), panini freddi ma bruciacchiati con carne cruda , cheddar solido e freddo e insalata del discount, che abbiamo preso come uno stimolo per intraprendere un percorso imprenditoriale nella ristorazione. Ma non finisce qui, l’impasto della pizza era crudo, come anche la salsa e per non parlare della mozzarella che una di noi ha gentilmente espulso dopo pochi minuti nel bagno di servizio. Nel mentre, una delle cameriere ha fatto cadere bicchieri di vetro, che si son rotti in mille pezzi, addosso a una delle commensali, senza chiedere nemmeno scusa. Infine dopo una lunga preparazione del conto abbiamo constatato anche degli errori. L’unica nota positiva era la coppia di cantanti, ingaggiati per la serata, che ci ha accompagnato in questa serata infernale. E...
