First impressions, ease of reservation was extremely easy. The ambiance was cozy, mood lighting and open concept. The menu was somewhat limited which heightened our expectations. We ordered the brined chicken and gulf shrimp over polenta. The brined chicken came out piping hot. Presentation was spot on. Unfortunately, the chicken was dry, lacking seasoning and not brined as suggested on the menu. The gulf shrimp was well seasoned and fresh. However, the polenta was blended with oil and grease that made it extremely heavy and dense to east. The service was top notch and the atmosphere was amazing. Overall, the price of the menu item did not reflect the overall quality of the dish. Based on these above factors, I would not recommend Campfire unless you are looking for a place for ambiance.

We had a great experience at Campfire. The food was delicious and service was great. It was quiet on a Wednesday night at 8 pm. It has a nice ambience as well. We would definitely eat here again and stay at the Stella!

Went for brunch and had a great meal. Migas were exceptional! Doesn't feel like a hotel restaurant at all. Will be back!

Went here for my wife's birthday. Had not been before so decided to try it out. We did make reservations but I was still surprised when we were asked if we had and the restaurant was mostly empty. Nevertheless, we were seated and our waiter, Oscar, did a good job with his service and suggestion. Was disappointed that they were out of two of the beers that I liked. So, I was not able to have one because I didn't care for the others that were available. Thus, I ordered a margarita. The ABSOLUTE WORST MARGARITA in the Brazos Valley! My wife had the chicken and I decided on the red fish. Wife really enjoyed the chicken but menu stated that it came with mashed potatoes but it was served to her with diced potatoes. Which she didn't ask for and we were never informed that it was a substitute. My red fish was okay at best. Could tell it wasn't the freshest but it was eatable. Overall, just okay experience. Expected more from how the restaurant was touted on the reviews. May give it another chance but not sure because we have other restaurants in the area where we know we enjoy.

Excellent experience for brunch before TAMU graduation. Our server was very kind with our large group and they let us set up some decorations prior to our reservation time. All of the food was great and the server timed everything -drinks/apps/entrees to make for a special and relaxing brunch. Food was great.

It's hotel food pricing. Limited menu. Wouldn't choose if you're looking for a variety of selection, but to just hang out and have a drink and snack it's fine.

Took quite a while for our waiter to show up But once he did, service was fine. We were surprised to be given a brunch menu at 12:45 PM on a Thursday; therefore, the food choices were limited. I had a bacon cheeseburger which was huge and good. My wife had fish tacos that she commented one was dry. Parmesan fries came with both meal. I would have preferred regular fries. Overall, a little disappointed primarily with the limited menu. However, since we've had both dinner and brunch there in the past, we'll return.

We went for the Thanksgiving Buffet, we had one of the last reservations for the afternoon service. Hot food was at room temperature, cold items were cold and still on ice. Several dishes were not replenished for our service. Overall it was a B+.

What an absolutely lovely Thanksgiving brunch we enjoyed at The Campfire at Stella! Phoebe was fabulous and attended to our every wish...Would highly recommend choosing The Campfire for your next culinary adventure in the Bryan/College Station area!

My boyfriend took me here and the food was amazing. Very comfortable environment and our server Jordan was very warm and friendly. Food was out in no time and service was incredibly attentive. The Texas pecan waffle I had melted in your mouth it was delicious.
I took my girlfriend on a date here and was very delighted with the environment they had here. Our waiter, Jordan, was very welcoming and hilarious while treating us to our food very quickly. I got the Rueben sandwich (~$20) and absolutely loved it! Will definetly need to come again to try the rest of the menu.

We've been coming here regularly for the past two years now—at least a dozen times, probably more. And up until this last visit, every single meal has been fantastic. The food has always been on point, which is exactly why we kept coming back. That's why our most recent experience was such a letdown. The quality just wasn't there this time. Everything from how the dishes were prepared to how they looked when they came out was pretty far from what we've come to expect from the Campfire.

We made an online reservation. They told us the app didn't record that we needed a table for 6 as requested instead they only had a table for 4. We had to wait about 30 minutes to get seated.
Rebecca
Food was amazing, drinks were too. For a busy game weekend, service was reasonably fast. We had a wonderful time!

We enjoyed our Friday night date night at the Campfire at The Stella. Our service was fantastic and food delicious. I loved the S'more for dessert.
