So glad I found this gem! Amazing view of the mountains. The food is AMAZING! The atmosphere is so romantic and serene. Shout out to my waitress Marize who was sooooo amazing — always being so attentive, keeping the drinks flowing and making us feel so welcomed. A must for anyone visiting George.

La Capannina Mediterranean Restaurant is an absolute little gem. The pizza was next level — a perfectly thin, crispy base, generous toppings, and absolutely divine flavour. Every bite was a delight. You can taste the quality and care that goes into the food. I highly recommend La Capannina!

We had a wonderful experience. The Italian-style beef fillet with chive smashed potatoes and mushroom sauce was beautifully prepared and full of flavour. The chef personally brought out our mains, checking in on us — making the experience feel warm and personal. Fantastic meal with genuine hospitality.

What a gem in George. We were welcomed by the head chef and immediately felt at home. Our waitress was very knowledgeable and friendly. The food itself was simply excellent — do yourself a favour and try the bacon and brie. My osso buco was perfectly cooked and elegantly presented. We will definitely visit again!
