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.

Wonderful place. Staff was so professional and welcoming. This is a direct reflection of of Greg the operator.m who makes it a point to visit every table. It was crowded when we got there but worth the wait.

About the restaurant

A typical food love story. A boy meets a girl while eating pizza. He attends culinary school and open’s a pizza restaurant named after the girl. Thus bringing us to Emily! The Manhattan iteration of the Brooklyn based pizzeria centered around a historic brick oven and comforting food. Emily has earned a following for its signature Detroit-style pies and award winning burger. The pizza here is rectangular (not round) and utilizes the "frico" technique, in which cheese is drizzled on the edges of the pie to create a crispy brown exterior. Beyond the main event, the menu extends to include salads and sandwiches, which shouldn't be ignored (think an attention-grabbing burger and a top-notch spicy fried chicken sandwich).

Please note, there will be a time limit of 1 hour 30 minutes for guests so we can fairly utilize our limited capacity. Our outdoor dining is enclosed with heaters that will keep you toasty! Thank you :)

Food was great. Made the mistake to not look further into the restaurant, it is definitely a place intended to go with a group as the portions are a healthy size so I took plenty home (which is a good thing). Great service, everyone is nice. The basement was nice and can foresee myself returning with at least another person.

A Fantastic Dining Experience at Campania! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently had the pleasure of dining at Campania on Page Avenue, and I can confidently say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish! From the moment I walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the tone for a delightful evening. The staff at Campania are truly phenomenal; they were welcoming, attentive, and genuinely passionate about providing excellent service. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and offered great recommendations that made our dining experience even better. The manager was actively involved in ensuring that every guest felt special, checking in on us throughout the evening and adding a personal touch that made a huge difference. It's clear that the entire team is dedicated to creating a memorable dining experience. Now, onto the food! Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The attention to detail in the preparation was evident, and every bite was a testament to the chef's talent. Whether you're a fan of classic Italian dishes or looking to try something new, the menu has something for everyone. Overall, I cannot recommend Campania enough! The combination of outstanding service, delicious food, and a welcoming atmosphere makes it a must-visit restaurant. I can’t wait to return for another wonderful meal! Thank you, Campania, for a fantastic dining experience!

Second time at Song, first at this location. The food here is unbelievably good. Everything is expertly made and is some of the best I have had anywhere in the world. Initially tried it because it was on a World's 50 Best Pizzas list and it absolutely is amazing. Words do not do it justice. The pastas are just as good. The gnocchi and spaghetti bolognese, although simple dishes, were just as memorable. Great friendly staff who offer great recommendations.

The food was good as always. I had 2 issues though. They brought 3 of our 4 appetizers and then halfway out that course they told us they were out of 1. This should have been done earlier. Then they brought our main courses before we finished our appetizers.
