We went to Campagnia for our third (yes the Big Three!) anniversary this week, and the service and dining experience were, as always, stellar. Even though we were a good 30 minutes early for our reservations, we were seated immediately. We enjoyed a bottle of Tobin James and an order of bruschetta, shared a wedge of Romaine salad, I had the rack of lamb (which was amazingly tender and flavorful) and my wife had the bacon-wrapped filet and ate every single bite, an incredible rarity but testament to how good it was. In honor of the occasion, Campagnia offered us dessert on the house - we chose the blackberry/cabernet sorbet, which is like essence of blackberry distilled down into heavenly frozen goodness. Wine, appetizer, salad, entrees, dessert - $120. Deal. Big Five Stars for the effort, Campagnia! less

And if you have a chance, go and experience it for yourself because it is an excellent restaurant. <br> Greg <br> Campagnia is an excellent little restaurant in a shopping center in North Fresno. I can easily see this restaurant either expanding or moving to a larger location in the foreseeable future, because the traffic was busy, the food was outstanding and the service was impeccable. <br> The emphasis seems to be on sweet flavors; the tangerine martini was sticky-sweet but good, and very generously served. Salad dressings were also sticky-sweet, but complimented the bitterness of the baby greens and pecans in the salad very nicely. A must-have is the prawn appetizer, with the prawns coated with a crunchy-nutty batter and served in a mildly spicy citrus sauce. Wonderful! with a capital W. Seared duck breast and various beef and chicken choices on the menu all sounded very good but it will take multiple visits to try them all, and I certainly intend to. Drinks and appetizers for two was $40, but the quality and quantity of both the food and drinks was very acceptable. Very highly recommended. less
