Reviews for Bar Camillo in Brooklyn, NY
Small place with an intimate setting but also a bit confined, good food but needs more staff. Upon arrival we were told it would... be a five minute wait, but waited more like 12-15 minutes which is okay but we weren't offered to sit at the bar. Just seemslike due to low staff options, customer service was lacking. Also the Camillo Old Fashion wasn't prepared like a traditional"old fashion". Read more
EDIT: 6/11/22 - I'm editing my post because Google won't let me leave a 2nd review. I held my wedding reception here and it was... FANTASTIC! Prices are extremely affordable/reasonable for Brooklyn. (Especially if you hold it earlier in the day!) The foodwas fresh and delicious. Our server was warm, welcoming, and attentive! I cannot recommend this place enough, please check themout! Bonus Tip: You will have the place to yourself if you rent out the backyard prior to the dinner hours! Original Review: Highly recommended hidden gem! Delicious cocktails and pizza, will be back to check the rest of the menu! Staff was friendlyand food came out quickly. Read more
Loved this place, we just popped in without a reservation on a Friday evening and they still accommodated us. Very good service... and Great outdoor space in the back, super cute. The drinks all tasted great and none were stingy on the alcohol portions. Theyhad good gluten free pizza and a rich flourless chocolate cake. Would for sure recommend and visit again when I am in the area. Read more
Cozy spot, backyard space too. Had Cacio e Pepe macaroni and a sausage and broccoli rabe pizza both quite good. The Mac was a... little salty but tasty. Only one hostess/bartender/waitress doing it all,but the service was good. Read more

The pinsas were pretty good! The flavors we ordered I haven’t seen much on pizzas. I think the real winner is the negronis!... The backyard is also really cute. I would recommend this place as somewhere to have a lowkey date or chill with your friends. Read more
So I’ve been three times in two weeks-alone each time: one for take-out, one seated outside in front and once on the back... patio. Speaking of the patio, someone from Vogue recently gave a review, which was good for publicity, but didn’t share thedetails about what makes Bar Camillo a gem. The staff is friendly, inclusive, and hospitable with a hip, modern Italian vibe.Meantime the menu is rooted in tradition-the ancient style “pinsa” or Roman pizza with fermented dough and traditionaltoppings, eggplant parmigiana (which tasted just like my nonna’s or as good as any I’ve had in Italy) and traditionalpastas. Some innovative cocktails at reasonable prices, a selection of good wines and beers and you really can’t go wronghere. Take-out lasagna was delicious and still crisp on the edges. I showed up in the rain and asked for a martini while Iwaited, which they got a kick out of. The sidewalk seating is stylish with covered separates “covid booths” and a couple ofhigh-top tables. Patio also dent cozy and is mostly enclosed with a fabric ceiling, plants, and a natural wood and brickvibe. Come here for a cocktail and a snack (I recommend a negroni and the anchovies in buttered bread-the famed Recca anchoviesof Sicily) or split a pinsa and a glass of wine with a friend, chat up the friendly staff, and plan a trip to Italy ASAP.

Vegan cheese can be added to any of their veggie pizzas, turning quite a few of them Vegan. We got the one with sun dried... tomatoes and olives- delicious. Their negronis are the highlight of the dining experience. Read more
