We had a wonderful time. It honestly made me feel like I was in Manhattan. The cocktails, beer and wine selection were phenomenal and the food was all delicious. Service was also on point and the place was PACKED. Wishing you the best of luck and looking forward to having you around for years to come.
I really liked everything about Camillo, the ambiance, the size of the bar, the wood planks on the ceiling, the way the menu read, the way things are presented, cutting board with little holes for the ramekin when the chicken liver arrived at the table, the braised baby octopus, the pinsa romana we tried the very satisfing double option of 1/2 cacio pepe and 1/2 amatriciana with a great glass of roman Cesanese del Piglio. The service was just right.I really felt like a king.It deserves another visit very soon.

Excellent Roman restaurant right in the middle of Brooklyn. Roman food is my favorite of all Italian foods and it's also hard to find authentic Roman food in NYC - but apparently it's been down the street in Brooklyn the entire time. They have the holy Trinity of Roman pastas (cacio e pepe, amatriciana, and carbonara), a variety of pinsa (Roman pizza), and my personal favorite - carciofi giuda (Jewish styled fried artichokes) that I've never found close to correctly made outside of Rome. They also offer a variety of spritzes - I went with the limoncello spritz which was great and apparently the limoncello is made in house.
We went here for an anniversary dinner and every dish we had was amazing. I had cacio e pepe which is my litmus test for the real deal or not - it was perfect. They even use tonnarelli pasta - it was better than many that I've had in Rome. My partner had the oxtail pappardelle and loved it. The wild mushroom pinsa was amazing. The selection of mushrooms was unreal - lobster mushrooms, oyster, and maybe chanterelles. Usually restaurants skimp on mushrooms and toss in lower tier shrooms like cremini, white button, and portobello - not at Camillo.
For dessert we had tiramisu and pistachio olive oil cake - both were great. Also, the wine selection was good. The service was excellent and not rushed. The atmosphere was friendly and lively on a Sunday night. All in all - I have found my new favorite Italian restaurant for the 11 months out of the year when I'm not in Italy.
This place reminds of a rustic old Italian place. I think definitely worth a visit and they do an amazing Aperol Spritz, one where they pipe the bubbly from tap, which is fun! We really enjoyed a number of the appetizers and the lasagna was fire. Would say that the meatballs were not that great. Might be a good idea to retire that dish! Service was also spectacular. Looking forward to coming back to here again during the fall.
On Christmas Eve, we arrived at the restaurant and were pleasantly surprised to find it quite busy. Whether you're looking for a family-friendly atmosphere or a place for a romantic date night, this is the perfect spot for you.
The staff at this establishment are not only friendly, but also extremely knowledgeable about the authentic Roman dishes featured on the menu. They are also well-versed in recommending the perfect wine pairings for each dish.
For our meal, we decided to try the pizza pasta combo, starting with the indulgent Felino Pinsa. These pizzas are generously sized and can easily be shared between two people.
The Cacio e Pepe dish lived up to our expectations, with its smooth and cheesy flavors. The Beef Lasagna was baked to perfection, with just the right amount of crunch on the cheese topping.
One of the staff members recommended that we try the chilled Cabernet, which is served on tap. It turned out to be an excellent choice to accompany our dishes.
We been going here for a few years now. Their Fughi pizza, oxtail pasta, meat lasagne with beef cheeks, sooooooo good. The bartender made me an amazing drink once not sure what it was called or what was in it but it was everything. My daughter gets the shirley temple with her funghi pizza or meat lasagna but its no regular shirley temple it is a very elevated version. Not those sickly red maraschino cherries. They add some delicious dark dark red cherries that add a completely different flavor profile to the drink. Save the best for last. The fried artichokes 😍😍😍😍😍😋😋😋😋😋😋 they are my favorite!!!!! I go there sometimes & just order that. I sit and enjoy or take home the lemony goodness & crispness of the leaves & the soft inside the heart. Sooooooooo goooooooood. Let's not forget the staff. They are great! It's been the same people here for quite some time. We also enjoy eating outside on summer nights.
The restaurant looks clean , friendly staff , food is delicious. They use real tomato 🍅 sauce in some restaurants use tomato paste and makes the food taste bitter. I think this Italian restaurant is my favorite for now .
Great place with a cozy atmosphere! I went there with my friends and we had an amazing time. The food was awesome so tasty! Highly recommended

The food and drinks here are top notch. Highly recommend getting anything with mushrooms on the menu, it was so absolutely fresh. I got a non alcoholic negroni, which was so close to the real one. Would come back :)
Such a wonderful neighborhood gem! I started (along with my husband) going to Camillo's during the pandemic, and met such wonderful people along the way. The menu is small and simple. Some of my favorites is the oxtail pasta and the lasagna. Also, a tasty pizzas--my personal fave is the felino. Shout out to the crew : Fernando, Felipe, and"nephew" !
I wanted to check out this place for a very long time and I wasn’t disappointed! We ordered olives, chicken liver pate and caprocciosa pizza. Food was great! My partner didn’t like his drink and our server was very helpful with suggesting something else.
That definitely wasn’t my last visit in this restaurant!
We arrived without a reservation and weren't sure we would be seated but we did get a table after a few minutes. Ambiance is perfect for a relaxing, cozy dinner. Service was friendly. I just can't stop thinking about the eggplant appetizer. Omg!!! Also had the Cod. It was good but the portion was very small and a little lost in all the sauce. It tasted great, however. I definitely plan to return.
