Excellent food! Great service! Sadly! Extremely short pour on the cocktails.

Food was ok for the price .. I couldn't believe that I paid $30 for rice and my husbands bourbon was an embarrassing pour .. the waitress rushed us out of there.. didn't even sit down and she was already asking g for drinks appetizer and dinner all in one breath.. then gave us the bill and we thought we tipped and the owner came out and said was there something we said no and then he asked why didn't we tip.. I have never had that happened. If there wasn't so many things o probably would think they had an off night but for $350 I expected more .. not going back

One of our favorite and most frequent go-to restaurants in Menlo Park. Chef Greg's food is always delicious and creative – their cocktails too! As a Rocket Vodka launchpad, you know the cocktails are going to be elevated.

A lovely meal. The chef is super creative in the use of vegetables and original sauces. Nice selection of wines by the glass, which our server was happy to let me taste before ordering. Highly recommend the cauliflower starter and the chickpea risotto, which were quite exceptional. The baked cod however was a bit too salty. And we needed to order some bread to cleanse our palate afterwards. They did offer to remake the fish which was thoughtful, but it would have interrupted the flow of our dinner at that stage. That said, it was a great experience overall. And don't skip the s'mores desert!

Everything was SO delicious: the scallop crudo with peas, the tortelloni , the spaghetti w/Dungeness crab, the waygu hamburger and fries and the apple tart tatin. I think one cannot go wrong with dining at Camper and I look forward to trying the pizza on my next trip :)

I understand going to any restaurant on Valentine’s Day means you sacrifice choice and quality but this was little much. It took 45 minutes for drinks to come, each course was almost inedible, too salty no taste or just plain not good. I spit out each piece of my steak bc it was too chewy and the scallops were literally inedible. The aesthetics were lacking as well. Too bad! Could have been such a good concept restaurant but would not recommend this to anyone who is used to good food and decent service.

Really underwhelmed by this restaurant. Service was terrible, food was unremarkable, under-seasoned and overpriced. Not a whole lot of accommodation for dietary restrictions, no salads with protein and the only option to add was chicken. Some guests didnt get place settings for the duration of the meal. Drinks were never refilled. Took a very long time to get food.

The reason it's not 5 stars is that we waited quite a while after Checkin for our table. Ambience is nice & cozy. Our server greeted us with a big warm smile & the recommendations were good as it was our first time and we had out of town guests. Cornbread was excellent & the two pasta dishes were delicious. Dessert recommended to us was outstanding. Perfect dinner!!!

It was a rainy night and we decided to find a place close by to home. Camper did not disappoint. Our server, Abigail, was amazing!!! Everything she recommended we absolutely loved. We can't wait to come back again.
