Gus and Carol on the road to Portland for a fabulous Italian lunch at Campagna's Restaurant. Wonderful owners and terrific service. I had to do some recon for the WLC. It fits us like a glove. Steve Casey of our WLC recommended it and he was right. We started off with some warm bread with a dish of olive oil, garlic and scallions. We had an "appetizer for two" of crab stuffed mushrooms, clams casino, calamari and fried mozzarella. Then, house salad. Then, I had the veal saltimbocca with prosciutto, provolone cheese with a light brown sauce over spinach and Italian veggies. Side of pasta. Carol had the chicken francaise. Superb appetizer and entrees. Took half home. Couldn't fit dessert but check out the desert and after dinner cordial menus. If you love great Italian food, you'll love Campagna's.

I ordered food from DoorDash and got their baked stuffed soul and stuffed mushrooms and it was spectacular. Usually you worry about food delivery, but it was hot and fresh.

We’ve eaten at Portofinos in Berlin many many times and have held several functions there. We discovered that the head chef at Campagna used to be the head chef at Portofinos. Same family, same excellent food, very well trained wait staff, lovely atmosphere. We had the Tues night 30 five course meal special and everything was outstanding. We had enough leftovers for 2 additional meals! A great value. We will certainly be back!

Our first time here. We sat at the bar and had the escargot and two old-fashioneds. Food, drinks and service were spot on. I would highly recommend this small little place tucked in along the side of the road and we will be back for more. A
