Excellent about the details. Roommate and I are industry workers in the City so take that as it is, we are very forgiving but harder to impress I think. Portions are shockingly large and the food is top-notch. Simple and short menu, everything 's executed perfectly. Pricing is super reasonable, we shared 3 first/app courses, a pasta, and a dessert, and got a very tasty and well-priced bottle of wine (very reasonable, about a 2x markup from retail) and two afterdinner pours (1 fernet, 1 port), tab $205 before tip. Bread was amazing, and I took solid pasta leftovers home to our other roomie. We left pretty stuffed. Octopus with beans was absolutely delicious, smoky and earthy and tomato-y. Car...
I can't say enough about Campagnola. The food is always great. In several years and many visits, I've never had anything I did not like. The atmosphere has an upscale feel but relaxed at the same time. Fresh pasta, a variety of fish and meat dishes, and seasonal changes that reflect what's good during the time. We will continue to have Campagnola in our regular rotation for the food and friendly faces.
The food at this restaurant was excellent and the ambiance was delightful. However, the service left much to be desired. Although our server was friendly, it took an extremely long time to place our order, receive our food, and get the bill. We ended up spending over 3 hours there in total. Despite this, the quality of the food really stood out and I would highly recommend trying the short ribs.
The atmosphere of the restaurant was wonderful, but unfortunately, the short rib I ordered was underwhelming. It lacked fat and flavor, tasting more like chuck. I have never had a mediocre short rib before. On the bright side, the scallops were delicious.

The restaurant has a fantastic selection of wines and a lively atmosphere, especially if you can snag a seat at the bar. The pasta dishes are delicious, offering a mix of traditional and inventive flavors.
great wine list and local chatter. Pasta dishes are awarded with both traditional and creative flair.
