Any help would be really appreciated! I've been to Reiner's and Szmania, not Campagna. I didn't like the ambience at Reiner's at all, it felt very depressing, like waiting in the hospital to watch a friend die (in feeling only -- the place didn't resemble a hospital at all). Szmania, on the other hand, provided a very pleasant and lighthearted experience, as well as good food. I'd recommend that you expand your choices to include Le Gourmand; I'm convinced that Bruce Naftaly, the owner, is the very best chef in town. I've been in his kitchen and seen him work. I've seen his ingredients. For someone who really cares about food, Le Gourmand is the place. Regards, - Irving
