Do not let the appearance fool you. The food was fantastic. Went here with my father for lunch, we loved it. We got a little history about the place from the owner. The food is made from scratch. The prices were VERY reasonable, highly recommend.

The dive atmosphere with the authentic taste. Phenomenal food for a reasonable price. I get recommend it enough. You will walk in and question your decision based on the atmosphere. Everything single thing tasted great

We very much enjoyed our visit to Campanello's. The prices are very reasonable. I had the Chicken Masala, it was delicious. The team of Dustin and Mary Ann worked very hard for us, service was good, though it appeared they may need more servers. My wife and I love Mom and Pop cooking, quiet surroundings. The back room filled all of our needs. Campanello's is a place we will return to again.

We almost walked out when we first entered. The place definetely needs refreshed and spruced up. Glad we stayed. Pleasantly surprised by how good the food was. Everything is homemade and fresh. The service was great. The prices very reasonable.

We came here on a Friday afternoon about 11:30. As others have mentioned, it does have a very "old" Mom and pop "hole in the wall" look to it so if it not being a "current" atmosphere matters to you, this is probably not a place that would appeal to you. I disagree with those calling it "dirty". The restaurant was a bit on the dark side if you like super bright eateries. Those things matter less to me than quality of the food. I ordered the Italian sausage hoagie, my son had the manicotti and chicken noodle soup and my wife had the manicotti as well. I did not encounter any of the issues with long waits others have complained about and it didn't appear to happen to anyone after us even though it would have been their lunch rush. Our waitress (who was older..i.e. my age rather than teens/20s) I am guessing was the proprietor. It was quite obvious from her interactions with customers that a lot of them are regulars. (Greeted by name, asking about missing friends of the customer, etc.) I was told the sausage was "a bit spicy" which made me eager to check it out. Unfortunately, it was not. The tomato sauce also was lacking in spice in my opinion. Chips that accompanied were store bought. Bread was obviously homemade and was good..not fantastic..but good. My son's chicken noodle soup was also obviously homemade (very wide flat noodles and not perfectly machine uniform). He rated it excellent for what it's worth. I will however agree with those praising the cannoli. Quite crispy, a nice dusting of powdered sugar and generous amount of sweet cheese/walnut filling. Our bill was just under $41 for our family of three. Discussed my review with wife who strongly disagreed. Wife said she would prefer slightly sweeter sauce but loves the manicotti. TLDR: Cannoli is recommended. Pasta is probably also a good bet but I'd skip the hoagies.
