Campisi's

"Campisi is situated in a busy and trendy part of downtown Dallas. The lounge like atmosphere is inviting and comfortable. We were a party of 3 on a busy Saturday night. We were seated quickly and the waitstaff were initially very accommodating and helpful. When it came time to take our order, the waiter had lost focus and was not able to remember what drinks or food orders he had put in for us. While we did not wait long for our food, the waiter had no recollection of what we ordered and brought our 3 entrees at 3 separate times after bringing the incorrect dishes to the table twice. After the food was delivered we were not checked on again and empty glasses not refilled. It WAS busy, so all that could be forgiven. What could not be forgiven was the food. There was no discernible difference between what they distinguished as "red sauce" and "marinara". My combo pasta plate arrived so heavily swamped in sauce that I initially could not see any pasta under the soupy mess. The meatballs were bland. The sauce was beyond mediocre. The ravioli was actually gross. I would never eat here again."

"The pizza at this place is amazing! I had pepperoni with jalapeños. It was hot and fresh and thin crust (less carbs). It is really dark on one side of the restaurant, but you can sit on the side by the street with lots of natural light."

"Very Bizarre! You order and pay for your food at the bar then get your drink, go fill it up and find your table. Very odd considering they ask for a tip less than five minutes of being in the building. I’m so surprised by the ratings being fairly good. There is no lighting to even see what you’re eating. The mini table lights are tinted red and serve no purpose. Writing this from the table. Now that I’m done with my food…. I’ve come to the conclusion that maybe I’ve had too much good food and it makes this food taste like bleh. Too many good reviews on the food while my chicken parmigiana tasted like a dog shook bath water all over it. I’m glad I tried it and I will never come back. To add: my server came to my table once. To bring my food. I’m relieved and feel less guilty about not tipping upfront. Should definitely be minimum wage staff since they aren’t full service."

"Pizza was amazing! Chicken Parmesan sandwich was good. Love the fries. Food was ready quick."

"What a horrible experience overall. The veal Parmesan was disgusting. It was like eating a shoe. The meatballs had a very strange spice that I wasn’t familiar with and they were relatively cold. I will say that the raviolis were decent and the lasagna was acceptable. They put us at a table right near the front door when it was 107° outside. Our waiter must’ve just started. He literally brought us our check two bites into our dinner. I do not recommend this place at all."
