We just had the Mother's Day dinner buffet and every item on the buffet line was great. The prime rib was amazing. I always have apprehension about buffets but this was all really really good. Thanks for a great night!!! read more

Great home cooked meals. Love the Ahi tuna. Referred here by Giorgio the Medford lawyer. My family enjoyed the spacious friendly and lovely restaurant. The chef Michael actually came out to our table to insure our satisfaction. This is a great family place no rif-raft! Service was excellent, the wait staff kept their distance so not to annoy but were quick to react when my body language signaled need ni loved dining here. This is upperclass without the fuss and snottiness. read more

This is the neighborhood restaurant. There aren't many others in our small town. I have only had dinner and visited the bar a few times. Every visit the staff has been courteous and knowledgeable of the menu. The food has always been good and we have had a good time in the bar when they have had live music. They usually offer great holiday and weekly specials. We look forward to trying the Sunday brunch soon. read more

Ate there for Easter. Very disappointed by the service!! We had reservations for 5 adults at 4pm and we were seated right outside the kitchen. Hostess was very annoyed by our request to be seated elsewhere. When we were eventually reseated she told us that we needed to be finished and leave by 5:30pm for the next reservation. Pork was very tough and green beans were way undercooked! Tuna needed to be sent back as it was undercooked from what had been ordered. Ladies room was dirty, ants on the toilet seat and there were no paper towels - makes you wonder how the waitstaff dried their hands? read more

Romantic , clean, pretty, attentive staff. Not happy with the arugula salad, too lemon-y and put grated Parmesan instead of what I thought would be shaved. But that got handled n removed from bill. Rest of the meal delightful read more

The food and service here is great and consistently great. I always get the spiedini followed by cheese ravioli. I've had their meatballs too which are great. Id recommend this place to anyone. read more

Four issues and one positive comment: 1) Dueling music (completely different songs/playlists) from the bar speakers on one side and the restaurant speakers on the other. This is a hugely frustrating/manic experience -- especially if you sit upstairs. 2) Very slow service - hardly half full, waited for an hour for entrees, wine took even longer -- my glass came after my meal had been boxed up. 3) Shockingly rude manager upstairs - I'm assuming she was a manager. The waitstaff seem to work in fear of her. Watching her interact with the others was like watching a young, female Donald Trump manage a restaurant. 4) The place doesn't know what it is - major identity issues. For instance a "dance party" band/DJ came in at 9:45, contrary to the classy, rustic, Italian vibe the design suggests. On the + side, the food wasn't bad. read more

Mother's day brunch....... Was amazing! The food and the service! I honestly didn't expect it to be as fabulous as it was, in the past at other restaurants we've had bad experiences with the busyness of the holiday but not LA CAMPAGNOLA! They were one step ahead of the game. The selection of food choices for the brunch were excellent. Fresh omelets and waffles! The mixed veggies were out of this world. They had paella and this stuffed chicken that was so delicious. I was surprised they had crab legs, my family enjoyed that! And who doesn't love a complimentary mimosa read more

my husband and I go there every Tuesday night, not only for the fantastic food, service and friendly atmosphere, but we just love Kim, Erica, Rich and all the rest of the staff tending to the bar... . FANTASTIC!!! KIM always makes us smile:) Arlene and Paul. read more

I really love this place but it is so INCONSISTENT!!! I used to love the grilled caesar chix - but they changed the chicken and it's horrible :( I used to LOVE the muscles diablo - the best sauce I have had perfect heat, sweetness and chunks of tomatoes, but no more. Now it's a very thin sauce with a different type of heat to it, like someone poured pepper into the pot and did not taste it. There are still great dishes- I hope they don't change them for the worst!!! read more

The veal was tough and chewy..crab cake was terrible. The service was not good, except for the busboy. Will not go back. read more

Definitely cannot say anything more than has already been said positively about this place. High-class menu, comfortable seating and decor, and excellent wait staff. My wife and I went with other family members to see the band that was playing - "The Shakes". Look them up on Facebook and online (http://www.theshakes.net). They place a nice collection of classic rock and they do it very well. We had a nice late dinner of various appetizers and entrees that were all delicious. This was our first time there and it is a place to try and visit again! read more

Some of the best food i've ever had was from there.. one time not so much.. Some of the best service i've ever had was from there... one time not so much.. It was only once, it happens. 9 times out of 10 delicious and wonderful all around.. ask for Tyler he's wonderful. Great menu options, everything you can think of. The bar looks pretty cool as well and i definitely would like to hang out there sometime soon.. :) read more

As a fine dining restaurant my complaint is not that unusual, too much added salt and sugar in preparations that don't need it. You can't take it out of a dish. The pork chop, scallops, duck are a few dishes they generally pair with some fruit sauce. Sounds upscale on the menu, but if I order scallops, I want to taste scallops, not an over sweetened "port and something" reduction. What also bugs me is the fixed vegetable and potato sides of the day included in the meal. If you want something different it's an up charge. I think $2-3 for a baked potato. The meals are already expensive enough. Ridiculous. And folks, when you wrap a potato in foil, it's a steamed potato, not a baked potato (baking dries it out to accept all the good stuff you put on it and just tastes better). I tried the seafood pasta once, dried out shellfish over spaghetti which I did not eat. I didn't have the patience to wait and it was taken off the bill. But both were a rare experience. The pluses for me are the nicely appointed and lively setting, the friendly and efficient (previous exception noted) staff, early week seasonal raw bar, happy hour and friendly clientele. All and all a decent experience in an area w/ few choices. read more

Dined here over 10 years ago and it was just meh. Gave it another try for a date night on the urging of some friends and neighbors. Our table was in the bar area. Weird atmosphere. Fried calamari appetizer pretty basic. The she crab soup was delicious. No bread offered - is this really an Italian restaurant? Our meals took at least 45 minutes to an hour after ordering and were average at best. Disappointing considering what we spent on dinner. It might take another 10 years for us to give it another try. read more

Friends brought us here and we really enjoyed it. The waitress provided exceptional service and was very helpful in providing recommendations. They're complementary bread is absolutely delicious. It is like a pizza with a bit of tomato on top. We all had a problem trying to stop eating it. The porkchops I ordered are out of this world. Everyone else liked their dishes as well. read more

We've been there three times so far this year. It's exceptionally clean and the ambiance is great. Not too big, so try to get there as early as possible. The wait staff is friendly and patient. Each time the Angus beef filet was so tender it actually melted in my mouth! Absolutely delicious! Hot bread with both butter and oil starts you off. The alcoholic beverages are decently priced, but this is not a cheap place. It is, however, cheaper than the Maplewood, and they don't crowd you here. I wish we could eat here every night. It's that good. I've had a few friends say that they get quite busy at times (I'm sure they do) and the service tends to be slower at those times, but that's to be expected. They have a nice dessert selection. The only complaint(?) I have is the side dishes are very expensive. I think $7.50 for mushrooms on your steak is excessive. But I have absolutely no complaints about the steak. Perfect every time. We're looking forward to trying their Prime Rib in the near future. read more

My hubby and I went to LC for a late night dinner. We were both very happy with our night! Drinks were delicious! Food was great! We'll definitely be coming back for date night! read more

Delicious food and attentive, friendly service. Our waitress Jessica and bus person Sarah were fantastic! They checked on us at just the right moment every single time! read more

My husband and I were at La Campagnola last week and although our dinners were okay, we were upset by hearing one of the managers yelling obscenities to his employees in ear shot of our table and also other employees as well heard his bullying tactic. It ruined our night, as we felt uncomfortable. Bullying is unacceptable anywhere! read more

Went with my family for the first time this evening for my sisters birthday. Both the food and service were excellent. Our server Heather was very friendly and very knowledgeable about the specials and menu. Everyone (5 of us) ordered different dishes and were all very pleased. (The clams fra diavlo was great). We had my 7 month old niece with us who had fallen asleep. Heather noticed this and instead of coming out with the group of servers to sing Happy Birthday as they usually do came out herself and sang to avoid waking up my niece. Much appreciated. We will definitely be back. read more

La Campagnola never disappoints the food is always in point and the service is top notch our hostess Gianna was very friendly and found a way to accommodate us even though our party wound up being two people more than what we originally thought! Thanks for being my go to restaurant! read more

Awesome atmosphere bartenders are fantastic 11/10/18 and Brittany was attentive and available when we needed her she is passionate with customer focus we love LC !!! read more

Our family has eaten brunches and dinners at La Campagnola for years. The services is always excellent, and the food is always great. It's nice to know that we can please everyone in our family, from toddlers to great-grandparents, in one place that everyone loves. I TOTALLY recommend this place! read more

My family of 5 had easter brunch at 930./AMAZING! Where do I start? We were seated right away, staff was SUPER friendly. Buffet food was delicious, they were constantly bringing out fresh serving, the omelet line had a staff member taking people orders in line, it was incredibly efficient. Our tables were cleared right away, drinks came right away. The place was busy too. It's just a well run establishment. I HIGHLY recommend. read more

La Campagnola - Some of the desserts. - Italian Near Me - Shamong, New Jersey

Had reservations and were seated on time. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful. Started with the pizza bread which was surprisingly very tasty. Followed that with a cup of pasta fagole that came piping hot and quite filling for a small serving. I chose the eggplant parmesan with cappelini noodles as my entre...The eggplant part was very thick, at least 6 layers and the noodles were cooked to perfection.. The portions were extremely generous. My only complaint was the side dish of sautéed spinach had the right amount of garlic but too much salt for my liking. Overall, prompt service and excellent food, a place I would visit again! read more

First stop here. Just driving by and decided to check it out. Very pleased. Sat at the bar as we did not want to commit to more than a cocktail. Realized pretty quick this place was a good pick. Drinks were perfect. Ordered a veal dish and it was perfect. Absolutely coming back. Service was great. Tyler at the bar was attentive and answered our many questions. This was a great dinner. read more

One of the best dining experiences I had this year. I had the shrimp scampi and it was like " Mama made it". The pizza bread was terrific and the service vey pleasant and accommodating... we will definitely be back!! read more

Wow, what a fabulous meal! This was our first visit and we will be returning, often. The service was perfect, unfortunately, I'm a bit hard of hearing, and didn't catch our waitress name, but she's been there since they opened(11 years) and is excellent, the owner even stopped by our table to welcome us. We had the clams casino, (probably the best we've ever had) and the eggplant rollitini, equally fabulous. I had the 'Ocean's Garden-shrimp, scallops, and baby spinach in a vodka blush sauce over pasta. Out of this world! The seafood was cooked perfectly and the sauce was rich, but not overwhelmingly so. My husband had one of the specials, snapper with lemon, capers, white wine, and chopped tomatoes, over pasta...he ate every bite of his large portion. I can only eat about half of mine. Also-the house dressing is amazing-wish the bottled it! Had fresh coffee and butterscotch creme brûlée for dessert. read more

We have an exercise group and we lunch once a month. The crab was recomended. We all thought it was Wonderfull. The food and service could not have been better. read more

We used La Campagnola to cater food for a party we were having at our house. Chef Michael was awesome helping us plan the menu and make choices. The food was ready on time and they even loaned us chafing dishes and serving utensils. Most importantly the food was amazing. The chicken and veal Marsala were done perfectly with great flavor. The penne vodka and penne pomodoro were a big hit with everyone. We would highly recommend La Campagnola. Great food and great service at a great price! read more

Excellent restaurant. Great food, service and atmosphere. Good variety of dishes, and reasonable prices.

I absolutely LOVE La Camp and my husband and I are extremely picky.The food and service is exceptional. I have ordered several things as we go here often and my husband is big on trying different foods,every time he has ordered something that ive never tried from here, it has been excellent,such as NJ peppers, the steak with port wine reduction sauce and gorgonzola cheese, etc. The servers are excellent however Zac and Sam are exceptional.I love the drinks there however Carrie Ann seems to be the best. The only drawback is it can be packed on a Saturday night, but thats to be expected and sometimes you have to wait around for a table. This place is both kid friendly and great to stop by for date night. Im surprised at the reviewers who didn't like the place but you can't please everyone and I think some people just tend to experience things looking for reasons to nit pick. read more

I am really sad to say that I had a horrible experience here today. I drove from Philly to have lunch with my mom and we chose this restaurant because it is a favorite of ours with typically good service and great food, not to mention it is so close to my mom's house so it is a place we always take guests. We didn't get there until about 3:30 so the restaurant was quiet and we sat in the bar area. We only had the chance to order sodas at our table when the hostess sat with the only guest at the bar and the bartender started having a heated conversation dropping the f bomb and other profanities for quite a few minutes. My mother doesn't need to hear this when we went to have a nice lunch so I asked our server if there was a manager present and told her that the bartender was using a lot of profanity. The bartender's behavior continued and if I wanted to hear someone speaking like that I wouldn't have chosen a decent Italian restaurant for lunch with my mom. We asked for the check. Our server apologized and said she can't say anything to the bartender because she's old enough to be her mother. I was so disappointed and I'm not sure if we'll be returning. read more

I have been coming here for many years. I love this place! A great place with great food. I would hope this review would come out positive rather than negative. Bar area was very busy tonight. Management has to be aware when servers are "in the weeds". Dirty dishes cannot be left uncleared on the table. Drinks should never be empty. It's money guys! Waitstaff has to be trained better on surroundings. read more

AWESOME!!! My experience was wonderful, the menu has everything from sandwiches & pizza to seafoodd, steaks, chicken. I even saw that on Tuesdays they have all u can eat dungeness crab leggs. On Thursdays they have prime rib night for under $30. The wine list is huge & they have a full bar with 20 draft beers. The staff was so pleasantt from the hostess to the busser. The food was amazing they have a great garlic bread with fresh mozzarella cheese called spidini bread for app I had zuppa DE peace seafood in a warm onion broth....awesome. Dinner I had rack of lamb ( best I ever had) my husband had shrimp & calamari Fri divlo over fresh pasta. They also have great desserts the bread pudding was best of the best in south jersey. It comes with a warm grand mariner sauce that makes you melt. There is also a dessert martini list if you are to full to eat your dessert you can always drink it! There was live entertainment that was great, everyone was dancing and having fun! The dress is casual and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. This is a great Italian steak/seafood house with awesome pasta. I can't say enough about it!! You deff have to go. My friend is having her rehearsal dinner there too!!! read more

got to to say, it has been 4 to 5 visits now that the service just keeps getting worse. last night's visit we went with a $25 gift card that the GM mailed me as a result of our visit two months ago when the service was so bad. last night's service still bad. waitress was bringing out one drink at a time four a party of 5. my wife waited over 20 minutes just to get her first glass of wine. wrong drinks twice. wrong food ordered. waitress was told it was wrong and then asked if we still wanted the wrong item. we finally asked a busser for help. getting the bill took forever. waiting for the receipt to come back took another 15 minutes. please do not send any gift cards. we have given you numerous chances. if you are going to hire inexperienced servers. please train them. read more

Heard excellent things about this place. We had reservations for Easter Sunday and I'm sure it wasn't normal customer service but for our first ever it was disappointing. We were seated on time, it appeared most wait staff was high school students, necesary by crowd. We went to buffet for 1st visit, and came back and had mimosas and ate our first dishes within about 10 mins. Our waiter asked if we were done or going back for another round. We'd been there 10 mins!!!! So anyway he understood we weren't done, we went for second round, came back and the table was being cleared and in process of it being moved. REALLY IMPRESSIVE. The table was reset for us and put back in place and we completed our meal and new mimosas without any other problem. Food from buffet was OK. We may go back on a normal week evening so we can get real feel for this restaurant. read more
