I so would've wanted to be blown away by Campo. I had such high expectations. It's in my building and I love Portuguese chicken. I would've been there everyday.
For the good:
- I love the restaurant itself. The setting is beautiful.
- The chicken is good.
- The fries are good, albeit the greasy good kind.
- 13$ for a combo would be reasonable for a good lunch
Now the bad:
- I went the 2nd day after opening, the process was understandably disorganized. That's not an issue. The issue is that the process is weird. You walk in and: 1) you order at one end of the counter, 2) go pay at the other end of the counter and 3) return to the 1st place to get your food. That's so counter-productive. What's wrong with 1) order and pay, 2) get your food and be on your way!
- The sandwich is 80% bread and 20% meat. Oh no! That was such a disappointment. Put some of that delicious chicken inside your sandwich!!
- The combo doesn't include a drink! WTF? The combo is sandwich + fries + salad. You don't make friends with salad. Salad sucks. Give me a exciting drink to go with my delicious sandwich!
In conclusion: The chicken sandwich is good, but you don't get nearly enough chicken in it.
I'm going to try the poutine next time.
