Mariposa

The food is very good (4/5), the service is attentive (4/5) and the atmosphere is charming - good background music! (4/5). So why only 3 stars? Well... the price 😶 We very rarely go to restaurants in the high-price range, but when we do we expect something in return. It disappointed right there. Nothing to write home about...

A fancy restaurant in the golf club of Caesarea. The food was great as well as the service. The dishes looked good and tasted good. The service was great, no problems there. There is a special hall for reserved areas which opens on Saturdays if needed. Plenty of parking and close to main road 2.

Was so disappointed to see menus changed,chefs left,food now very average ,loud music as before was cool music. Service just ok . Not the quality it was sadly We used to bring everyone to experience it. We will not be coming back Sad to say

Excellent! Loved it!! My wife's birthday. A friend of ours ordered the table and we were told to come and enjoy. So we did as we were ordered, and we did enjoy! The dishes are all with complicated titles and plenty of ingredients. We started with good white wine, as per our waitress' recommendation. It was extremely good. Petit Castel. For starters we had the liver brolle (Liver parfait, pears in wine, spices crumble and toasted bread), the Red Tuna cubes (Fresh tuna cubes, asian chili peanuts sauce, eggplant cream and crispy sushi rice), the Salmon tartar (Salmon tartar, green tea ice cream, tom Sam sauce, sliced almonds and chili) and the fish kabab (Fish kebab, coriander and red onion, lemony yoghurt and tangy shifka vinaigrette). Every dish - beautiful and tasty! Presentation is a very strong part of the three young chefs work. As main courses we ordered the Eggyolk Pasta (Fresh pasta with black pepper, smoked lamb pancetta, spinach, mushrooms, garlic, fresh yolk and parmesan cheese), Drum fish fillet with goat cheese ravioli (Drum fish fillet in lemon butter sauce, tomatoes, ravioli of goat cheese and hyssop) and the Sea food Bowl with fresh pasta (Sea food casserole, corn and fresh ginger, lemon grass with coconut cream, coriander, chilly spice and pappardelle pasta) (guess who that one was for...) Again, presentation was beautiful and the taste as beautiful as the dishes were. Service is friendly and helpful. On Mondays there's a Greek evening with live Greek music at a very high volume. The outside is nice in cool evenings, but since it is the smoking area, I liked it less. When we ordered the bill I was surprised. It was far less expensive than what I expected it to be (in a fancy place such as this). We took very few pictures of the dishes. I will certainly come back here (though it's over an hour drive from home). They earned it. Big time.
