About Us:
Founded in 2008 by Rob and “Mama” Debbie, the Campione family embarked on a mission to share our rich, unmistakable recipes of Chicago style food with the Nashville area. Inspired by our Chicago roots and Italian heritage, we named the restaurant after our Grandma Campione, ensuring each dish embodies true family tradition. The Original Campione Taste of Chicago is more than just a restaurant—it's a family legacy rooted in the flavors and traditions of Chicago’s culinary classics.
Bringing True Chicago Flavors to Tennessee!
Recognized as Sumner County’s Best Restaurant by The Nashville Scene and honored as Tennessee's only inductee in the Vienna Beef Hotdog Hall of Fame, Campione’s is truly "Gallatin's Best Kept Secret." On any given day, you’ll find three generations in the kitchen, making sauces from scratch, rolling hand-made meatballs, and serving each guest like family. Welcome to our table—welcome to the Campione family!
Serving Nashville the Heart of Chicago Cuisine!
Today, under the care of Debbie's daughter Jessica and her husband Geoff, Campione’s continues to thrive as a local favorite, serving award-winning Italian beef sandwiches, Vienna Beef hotdogs, and both deep and thin crust pizzas made with recipes handed down through generations.
