La Capannina

An Italian-run wood-fired pizzeria facing the mangroves, serving swordfish and crab in sauce alongside its pizzas.

Located on the inner side of Independence Road, facing the mangroves rather than the beach, next to Le Corail. It is run by Italians. Wood-fired stone-oven pizza is the main draw, and one travel writer called it the best pizza they had eaten in Madagascar. On the seafood side, swordfish and crab in sauce get good reviews, and breakfast is also served. It has a Tripadvisor rating of 4.2 from over 110 reviews, and mid-range prices. Some diners find the flavours mild, and a few have found that the bill did not match the menu prices, so check the bill when you pay. It is a good change of pace after too much grilled seafood.
