Updated Italian-American “red sauce” cuisine meets the freshest local ingredients in this family-friendly neighborhood gem. Dinner, lunch, and weekend brunch are served on the year-round garden patio or in the lively dining room with its mix of cozy booths and banquettes. A love letter to the owner’s Brooklyn-born and raised Nonna, Campanella’s menu is classic East Coast Italian with some modern touches. Think New York-style pizza topped with Chicken Parm or “Mac & Peas” with house-made cavatelli. Vegetarian, gluten and dairy-free options, too. Full bar with craft and classic cocktails, local and Italian wines, and beers. The whole family will feel like they’re in the warm embrace of their hip grandma.

Popular place, good food, excellent service. Unfortunately, it's very loud. The place is apparently meant for fun and good times at volume, but not for conversation so we wound up shouting across the table.
