Our Story
A Neighborhood Italian Eatery
Campana is critically acclaimed, being recognized by both The Oregonian and Portland Monthly Magazine as one of the city's best restaurants. Notably, in The Oregonian's 2024 Readers' Poll, Campana was voted the best pasta restaurant in Portland. Eater Portland described the space as "bright" and "industrial," while Portland Monthly noted its ambiance as "part New Jersey food DNA, part New York fine dining."

In the Press
“Campana started as a pop-up inside Grand Army Tavern, but quickly devoured the host, replacing the bar full time three months into the pandemic. Now it’s the best pasta restaurant in the city,.. and might be Portland’s best Italian restaurant, period.”
“There’s plenty to like in this bright, open industrial space, but the simple-yet-delicious plate of spaghetti and meatballs is hard to beat, especially with a crimson glass of Italian wine in hand.”
“And every once in a while, the whim of the cook aligns perfectly with the desire of Portland's diners—like a culinary eclipse that ultimately leads to a whole lot of people to the same place at the same time for the same attraction.”
