La Campagna is located in a small plaza at the intersection of Norfinch and Steeles. My mom and I came on a Saturday afternoon, and it’s small-ish. It’s not well known(yet), but to be fair they are a recent establishment. We ordered calamari and pasta with meat sauce. Both were very tasty and just enough portion-wise. I recommend this if you’re ever in the area and have a hankering for great Italian food :)

Just had dinner here. We were near York U and so hungry so it was between this and the Turkish place 2 doors down. Both had good reviews but I am happy we came here because of the experience. It was one of the sweetest restaurant experiences ever. The owner was attentive and friendly from the moment we walked in. The prices in the eatin and takeout menu didn’t differ so we got a 2 seater table but he urged us to take a larger table since it wasn’t too busy. I ordered white zinfandel and it was reasonably priced. My bf ordered the wrong drink but they gave him the right one for free even though it was our mistake. The server was so super sweet. The food was delicious and ample. The cherry on top was the fact that two little boys, presumably the owner’s sons were around to help and serve. It was so cute/precious! You really feel like you’re supporting an authentic family business when you eat here — and the food/service was absolutely remarkable. It’s a simple place but the feeling was incredible! Support local restos! Thanks Unilocal for helping us find this gem.

Homestyled Italian food, simple but tasty. The service was prompt and friendly. The pasta was hearty and the portion was a good value for the price paid. A plus is that they also have a tv with tsn on. Would visit here again for a quick lunch!

My last review of La Campagna was in April 2014, making it a full year since I was last at the restaurant. I just want to note, that although I haven’t been in a year, the staff recognized me and remembered me. The young lady remembered that I don’t like bread with my meal, and the owner offered me a coffee and thanked me for coming back. WOW, I am impressed. My position on their food remains unchanged — it’s delicious! I really think this is the best«fast food» money can buy, because I know everything is made fresh, in house and with love. Thanks guys!

Great pasta and attentive top notch customer service. Maria and owner Luciano were already taking excellent care of another group before we got in and the celebratory mood set up the welcoming atmosphere just right for a perfect dinner service(can you say chilled grappa shots and red velvet cake!) Was delighted to discover the store had just got their LLBO2 weeks prior so several white wines and zinfandels were available by the glass/bottle as well as a full bar and cocktails. I got the piña colada to bring those warm beach memories back. We were starving and I ordered the soup of the day with beans in an almost creamy tomato base stock — soooo super-satisfying. The bruschetta was good as well. My friend’s lasagna was very tasty and well-prepared and my spaghetti and meatballs were everything I imagined a great meatball to be and more. The complimentary garlic bread Maria offered to us for our first visit was certainly an added bonus. It was great bread! Unfortunately the cannolis are only made fresh during the week so we could not take that to go this time but I did take the nice light tiramisu and my friend took the red velvet cake we overheard the other table oohing and awing about LOL. I have to admit it did taste very good with some sort of cream cheese icing. They have homemade crème caramel for those who prefer it. Highly recommended for a nice mid-size group dinner or date night. They also have a hot table lunch special weekdays 11−3pm that offers freshly made lasagna, meatballs, and other hot dishes. I look forward to trying that one day. Great to have this place nearby, congrats on being open for a year. FYI: Dress is casual. Brightly lit small restaurant. Accepts debit and offers limited amount for cashback.

Amazing amazing amazing! Fresh and tasty homemade style food — it really doesn’t get any better and the prices are great :) The décor is straight forward and simple with the focus all about the the food. We were I town for work and ended up eating here two nights in a row cause it was THAT good ;) The first night we shared the calamari and bruschetta followed by the chicken campagna — devine! Our amazing server(wish I would have got her name) picked the basil for our bruschetta from plants right beside our table… that’s fresh! The second night we had Caesar salad with veal Parmesan and pasta la campagna… When you name a dish after your restaurant it’s gotta be the best and this was worthy of its name! Both evenings we were served delicious bread with our meals :) I haven’t written a review in a while but it’s this kind of restaurant that makes Unilocal work for me. It’s a small place in a non description strip mall that we only found by searching on Unilocal — yay Unilocal! Support local peeps!

The food here is really delicious and I could really feel that it was made with love. The meatballs, which are homemade, were amazing!(I don’t think I can ever go back to buying frozen meatballs at the supermarket.) We were also fed a lot of tasty bread before and after our meal. The bread was heated just right. It was a truly wonderful and comfortable dining experience and the service was very friendly.

We were on a shopping expedition and one of us was having hunger pangs. As it was about 4 in in the afternoon, this place was empty when we stopped. It is a modest, counter set-up type eatery which evidently features a hot table at lunchtime as well. Service was not fast, but there was only one person working and she had a lot to do with both minding the counter and cooking, so we have no complaints in that regard — she was very friendly. But I must say, the meatball sandwich was one of the best I have had in many years and the chicken cutlet ordered by someone else in our party was fresh, tasty and delicious. On top of which I am not quite sure where they got their espresso maker, but it turns out excellent first-rate cappuccino. If you are shopping in the Vaughan area or work there, this is a highly recommended place for lunch, a snack, or a modestly priced quick dinner.

This place is so awesome, the pasta is so good and made quickly as you order right before your eyes. Pizza is made in that homestyle Italian way. Homemade meatballs that are big and moist. You should eat here soon before this place gets very popular.
