Ristorante Pizzeria La Capanna — Restaurant in Castiglione delle Stiviere

An unassuming restaurant off the beaten track in Castiglione delle Stiviere. Tucked away in a residential area. Very popular with locals & largely unknown by visitors. Suitable for all ages. Known for its excellent pizzas. My brother-in-law is in a wheelchair & the restaurant was well suited to his needs. From the car park there is a slightly steep ramp to enter the building, which wasn't too hard to negotiate. Once inside the restaurant was equipped for his easy access & use.

It's been over 15 years since I've been to Pizzeria La Capanna. We were taken by family to celebrate their anniversary. It hasn't changed much. The staff were attentive & efficient. The food was tasty & plentiful. In the past we've had pizzas but this time we went for the fixed €30 per person menu - of antipasti, tagliatelle al fungi & mixed grilled meats (beef, chicken, pork & salamina) with chips. It also included wine, water & coffee to finish.

The food cooled very quickly sadly. Maybe because the plates were cold. We were unable to finish our final course, as the meal was filling. My sister-in-law felt it also lacked something such as parsley sauce (which she does at home. Giving the food added flavour & makes the meat less dry). The couple we went with were a little disappointed with the meal as it didn't live up to their expectations, based on numerous previous visits. It was also their first meal out in nearly two years, which made it even more disappointing for them.

However they were not put off. They, & hopefully we, will return but choose...

We got this place recommended and went there without to much or to say any expectations. We both don't speak any Italian and had difficulties ordering food from the menu.

The staff was super friendly and attentive from the first minute, and didn't hesitate to help us out. My biggest thanks to Elia who was translating all the foods, who went on explaining everything to us. This is the kind of service and friendliness every good restaurant needs!

The Pizza and the pasta were both super deli ious and the price was more then reasonable. Definitely a great place to go to eat locally and experience Italian service and...

Pranzo di natale, prima volta in questo ristorante. Si vede che ha una storia alle spalle, ma è metà vuoto, strano per essere natale. Va beh, è particolare, menu elaborato, magari anche la zona non aiuta. Antipasto eccellente, tutto si sposa egregiamente, aspettative altissime per il resto delle portate. Risotto, un azzardo nei menù fissi ma vincente, molto molto buono, peccato che la quantità fosse di un cucchiaio da minestra, letteralmente, per tutto il tavolo... Va beh, con una pirofila hanno voluto servire tutti e poi ripassano, ci sta... (lo facevo anch'io ai miei tempi in cui lavoravo in sala)... No, niente ripasso. Ma sì dai, si saranno dimenticati, è Natale... Questo si ripete con i maccheroncini al coniglio e con la tagliata (roastbeef più che tagliata), qualcosa non va, persino il panettone / pandoro con il caffè non arriva a dispetto dei tavoli vicini e questo era molto evidente, mancava il piatto sul tavolo. Ecco spiegato i tavoli vuoti, complimenti. I clienti sono tutti uguali, e vanno trattati allo stesso modo, soprattutto se pagano allo stesso modo. Avessimo almeno rotto le scatole, avrebbe avuto un senso il "dispetto"... Bah, assurdo, cucina 5 stelle, oggettivamente il cibo era buono nel complesso. Servizio 1 stella, 5/6 camerieri, 1 responsabile di sala e fare un lavoro così,...
