Base Camp Restaurant Reviews
The food is delicious. The Chef truly knows food.
The Pork Belly Deviled Eggs, Lamb T-bone, and Trout are what I highly recommend.
Great restaurant with freshly prepared , inventive dishes. Everything we had was absolutely delicious. I had the trout and my husband had the quail. Both were fabulous.
the food is amazing!! they say it's "small plates" but they're being very humble..the servings are amazing and very filling.. my partner and I went there for a birthday gathering and we were so stuffed and so happy. I highly recommend them
