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.

    We went to celebrate my partners birthday. The remodel of the outdoor seating was spectacular. We sat in a corner booth, comfortable cushions and lovely warm overhead heater!! The food was spectacular and exceeded expectations. The cheese ravioli with red sauce yummy, root vegetable lasagna fabulous and the clam linguini best we have ever tasted. The gem salad was the best salad we have ever had!!! We loved very thing and the starter of knot bread was chewy and full of garlic and had amazing dipping sauce sauce. The colors, texture and delicious flavors along with fresh ingredients made the food spectacular. 91 y/o momma loved house made Italian soda and we loved the house cocktails very yummy. The perfect spot for a fabulous birthday dinner.

    The exec chefs are a married couple, one from Brazil and one from Argentina. Their food is so brilliant and just tasted so good! The sourdough is incredibly soft and the crust is so delicate but crunchy. We loved the scallops and the polenta. Everything tasted so special and different than how we've had it before. Meghan was our server and we felt so cared for! She brought us out so many different types of tastings of wines and we settled on an amazing Argentinian Chenin-Blanc! The only note we had was one of the servers (not Meghan) came by and asked us to identify our ethnicities and proceeded to share tropes that she identified with them. We felt extremely uncomfortable. Meghan kindly came by afterwards to apologize and check in on us. But we did hope that other diners in the future will not have to experience that. We would love to come back and experience the food in the future but hope that this is addressed.

    The Christmas Eve special event dinner was very good. The food was creative and they were very helpful dealing with a dairy intolerance issue. It was a it pricey, but worth it.
