Capricciosa Pizzaria

Two weeks ago, Luanda-Nightlife announced it had found the best pizzas of Luanda in La Pasta... Since then, we found an even better pizzeria: Capricciosa Restaurant in the Alvalade area.

If you work in Total E&P Angola, it's very close from the Impala/Palanca residences, only 5 minutes walking and you should really try it!

Capricciosa is very tiny, it seems to occupy what used to be a house's garage. There are around 10 small tables in the open air and in the back, a few more tables are under a roof near the kitchen. It's very simple but laid-back and welcoming. The manager even came at our table to ask if everything was OK.

The pizzas are quite expensive (3000 kwanzas and more), but they are made of fresh ingredients and the pizza crust is really thin. We were four people and we only took two pizzas. For once, the pizzas are not called by their typical name: No margarita, no napolitana, no quattro stagioni, each one is specific to Capriciosa. We were still a little hungry after our two pizzas but in the end, we only paid 1600 kwanzas each so it won't cost you so much if you have a small appetite.

Conclusion: Very recommended. They also do take away.
