We love dining at Campania because the food is so good. The portion sizes are perfect and everything is always cooked perfectly. I always like to try a new dish and this time I had the grilled octopus which I would have to say is probably one of the best I've ever had. Always a great meal and the service is impeccable. Love this place!

What a great time! Dinner was delicious and there with live music too, but our waiter, Franco, was the highlight of the evening. He was attentive, funny, and made sure dinner was memorable. An A+ dining experience. Thank you.

About the restaurant
Campania Coal Fired Pizza specializes in exactly what its name implies: delicious pizza cooked in a coal oven to produce a unique smoky texture to the crust and toppings. This special method of cooking pizza imparts certain flavors that simply can't be replicated by using a wood burning stove or other method of heating. Diners simply need to taste for themselves the difference Campania's incredibly hot coal-fired grill makes Campania's pizza menu comes with a build-your-own pizza option as well as several signature house recipes. Some of the delicious pizzas diners can try out are the Margherita, Buffalo Chicken and the Calabrese with tomato sauce, hot soppressata, mozzarella, pecorino romano and basil. If guests aren't in the mood for pizza they can also order one of the sandwiches like the chicken parmigiana or the Napoli with grilled chicken, mozzarella and a made-from-scratch pesto sauce.

First off- not cheap but good is excellent and portions are fair. We went 4 families three of us with kids. All kids under the age of 4! The service was excellent. I can’t stress this enough. I mean truly above and beyond to make us comfortable and even build rapport but not in an annoying way. And God bless them because our kids are loud, energetic and MESSY. Food was delicious. Very little leftovers we couldn’t stop eating and sadly had no room for dessert. I really appreciated the beautiful space and decor mixed with the ability to be there with my loud family - sometimes I miss being in a beautiful restaurant when I have to find child friendly places. Overall - loved! Will be back! Only dinged it on cost because I know that is very important to many people and this is not a cheap night out but also didn’t break the bank.

Wonderful experience. The food was outstanding. We had the special appetizer which was a stuffed artichoke. The surprise addition to this dish was mozzarella cheese! The Chilean sea bass was another special that was absolutely delicious. The service was excellent all around.

Went to the new location to celebrate our thirteenth anniversary. Very nice inside. Great food. Great service. They wrote “happy anniversary” on our dessert and gave us complimentary champagne which was a very sweet and thoughtful surprise. Highly recommend!!
