The food flavor is average, but everything is plated so beautifully. The bibimbap was overly salted and rice was mush. The omelette was fine, it's hard mess up eggs. All seating is outdoors, but they have heat lamps to keep you warm. I wish I could give five stars, but I can't..... The staff needs a lot of improvement. They took my order, brought out the food, and never came back. I had to flag someone down to get my water refilled every single time and to ask for more napkins. I asked twice for a to-go box and it never came. Warning: The servers are not fluent in English, so there was miscommunication in what I ordered, and what the server understood, and what I was being charged . It was a mess! Isn't understanding some level of english a part of the job description to be a server . We had to get the manager involved who thankfully helped us reach a solution.

I went to the one in Palo Alto as well, but it closed so this is the one that we went to at the time. We made an event of it, dressing up in lovely dresses, and the experience completely lived up to the anticipation. The aesthetics of the place are simply beautiful. Truly a feast for the eyes before the food even arrives! Now that I'm on Yelp, I absolutely had to share this gem. I don't want to wait until my next visit to sing its praises. The food was delicious and, thankfully, not overly expensive. It's the perfect spot for a fun, 'girly' outing with friends. Revisiting the pictures, I can almost taste the amazing dishes again! Our servers were wonderfully attentive, and I enjoyed a refreshing non-alcoholic spritz (though alcoholic options are available too). It was a perfect brunch: great food, lovely weather, and an overall fantastic atmosphere. If you're looking for a top-notch spot for a girls' brunch, this is it! There's a subtle Korean influence, evident in dishes like bibimbap, which adds a unique and delicious touch to the brunch menu. I believe I had the Fried Chicken Eggs Benedict, but what truly remains unforgettable is the Biscoff latte. I'm already planning a return trip just for that! Highly, highly recommend this place for an exceptional brunch experience.

Fantastic Cocktails, Vibrant Small Plates, and Great Group Vibe!…read moreWe had an outstanding meal at Horsefeather in Town & Country Village near Stanford! The space is sleek, modern, and light-filled, making it a perfect spot to gather with friends for lunch or evening drinks and bites. Here is a breakdown of what we tried: Deviled Eggs: A must-order appetizer! Topped with tobiko/caviar, crispy shallots, and chives, they are incredibly creamy with a nice pop of texture and savoriness. Korean Fried Chicken Wings: Crispy, perfectly glazed in a sweet-and-spicy sauce, and topped with sesame seeds. Served with a cool dipping sauce that balances out the heat wonderfully. Tacos (Carnitas & Shrimp): Both taco options were served on warm, fresh corn tortillas topped with pickled red onions, cilantro, and served with a side of slaw and spicy salsa. High quality and super flavorful. Roasted Cauliflower: A gorgeous mixture of purple and white cauliflower tossed with a rich green pesto and drizzle of spicy red pepper sauce. A phenomenal vegetable side with a great kick. French Fries: Golden, crispy, well-seasoned, and served in a massive bowl--perfect for sharing across the entire table. Overall: Excellent presentation, generous portions for small plates, and a super welcoming atmosphere. Whether you're stopping by for creative craft cocktails or grabbing a bite with a group near campus, Horsefeather delivers. Highly recommended!

I found the menu to be small but you can tell they put a lot of thought into it. We had a tough time deciding despite minimal choices! We ordered: Umami fries, a good starter Poke Bowl, very pretty but maybe a bit too much rice Wild Mushroom Miso Linguine + fried Chicken, very tasty but probably cheesier than I would have liked. They have an interesting drink menu as well. Overall a nice place to eat. I don't know what it's like for dinner, but for lunch it was a wonderful, casual place to dine.

I remember Camper being on the Michelin guide, so I had suggested the place for us to try. I made reservations just in case -- you never know how busy Saturday brunch gets. Looked like I didn't have to sweat it as there was ample seating when we arrived. Pretty cool restaurant concept. They really leaned into the camping aesthetic. Earthy tones, paddles as decor, and the bathroom stalls reminded me of public restrooms at campsites (in the cleanest way possible, of course). I even noticed the casual flannel the host wore to match the vibe. Overall customer service was good. Our server was delightful, and I appreciated her genuine excitement of us trying Camper for the first time. She was very proud of our food choices. That said, I did find that the food took a bit of time to arrive at our table. We only ordered entrees, and there was a handful of parties while we were there who were already eating. Not sure what was up with the delay, BUT after eating the food I recognized that you can't rush perfection... My husband ordered the blue ribbon cheeseburger, and I got their basket of famous fried chicken. My husband boldly claimed that Camper's blue ribbon cheeseburger was the best burger he's had in 2026. I wholeheartedly agree. I can't begin to describe how delicious the burger was, and it had the simplest ingredients: bun, burger patty, gruyere cheese, and onion jam. Loved the shoestring fries and homemade dips of garlic aioli and ketchup. This dish will singlehandedly bring us back to Camper. My basket of famous fried chicken was solid. In my mind I was expecting more of buttermilk fried chicken, but it was more in line of popcorn fried chicken. Loved that they used chicken thighs, so every bite was flavorful and moist. The dill ranch was the right complement to the chicken, and I was obsessed with their coleslaw. Basically inhaled it. Camper doesn't skimp on the chicken, so I found this to be a hefty dish with plenty of chicken to enjoy at home.

The menu was a bit of a challenge for me personally, since I'm not big on sheep or goat cheeses and a lot of dishes lean that way, so take my main course review with a grain of salt. I ordered the gnocchi and found it fairly bland. The corn bread appetizer and both salads (tomato and green) were excellent, though, and the rest of my table raved about their burger and risotto, so I think I just picked the wrong dish. My main hesitation is the price. Almost $40 each for the gnocchi and risotto felt steep, even for downtown Menlo Park. Great food overall and a fun spot, but the combination of a so-so main course (my choice, not necessarily the kitchen's fault) and the price point is why I'm landing at 4 stars instead of 5.

After drinks, tax and tip it was about $200pp. Only a few items were memorable to me. Steak was probably done more than we'd like - but we weren't given an option to how we'd like it. Seating outside isn't great. You're basically on the street inches away from people walking by and there's no barriers when the wind blows. Our menu flew away at one point. And once it started to get chilly, the patio heater gave up at some point too. Not a great spot to be sitting in for such an expensive dinner date. However, a great spot for kids because they can walk/run around and shout (that's what a kid was doing behind us). I'll try for an indoor spot next time. And just order a few dishes off the menu instead of the discovery menu.

The wild king salmon was another standout, and the warm sourdough with roasted garlic was absolutely delicious. Everything was fresh, creative, and beautifully prepared.

We went at the perfect time before the dinner rush and were greeted by our waiter Dylan. He was quick to answer our questions and offered great recommendations. I got the buffalo chicken sandwich with air fried fries and a pepperoni pizza. I also got a iced matcha horchata. Buffalo chicken sandwich tasted great with not an overpowering vinegar taste but also had that wonderful classic Buffalo wings flavor. The bread was very soft and the coleslaw was actually pretty good. I enjoyed the freshness of it. The fries were very dry and hard to be honest, I'll probably get a salad instead of those next time. The pepperoni pizza was a thin crust and not overly oily and cooked to perfection. No burnt crust or lava temperature cheese. Every bite was a joy. The iced matcha horchata was pretty much just a matcha latte lol. I did not taste any horchata flavoring at all. Not bad if it was just labeled a matcha latte but I probably won't get it again. Overall my visit was enjoyed and I look forward to exploring what the other items on the menu are like. Despite the shortcomings of the fries and the lack of horchata flavoring in my horchata drink I would still say my meal was rather enjoyable. On top of that our server Dylan was outstanding. Checked in at all the right times and was not overbearing but also not lacking in interaction. We did not have to ask for much as he was quick to provide everything we needed. The ambiance and the look of the restaurant was very nice and clean. Music wasn't too loud and the lights weren't too bright or too dim. The seats were very comfortable the tables were clean and I couldn't ask for much else.

She was quite talented too! ;) Meal started off with the complimentary biscuit, served with a side of beautiful butter, salt, as well as a piece of carrot. This was decent as the biscuit was merely lukewarm. The lamb chop as a snack was quite tasty. These were sold per piece and cooked to a perfect medium rare. The farmers salad, dungeness crab cake, as well as the cured trout small plates were all quite tasty. Loved how premium and light the farmer's salad was. The dungeness crab cake was super light and tasty too! The cured trout was excellent with the homemade potato chips! The cioppino was gigantic and perfect for sharing. It featured a ton of premium seafood, from clams, mussels, calamari, shrimp, as well as a couple pieces of black cod fish along with a few pieces of toasted bread!

I came to this restaurant two days in a row because I really enjoyed my first experience…read more Unfortunately, my second visit was noticeably different, and it really highlighted one of the biggest challenges for any restaurant: consistency. First Visit - Nearly 5 Stars On my first visit, I ordered: * Beet Poke * Mushroom Bao * Kale Caesar Salad with Falafel The beet poke was fantastic. It was fresh, light, and packed with seaweed, with a delicious dressing that brought everything together. There were great textures and flavors, and I would have happily ordered it again. The mushroom bao was another standout. The mushroom was perfectly fried, tucked inside a soft, fluffy bao, and topped with a tangy slaw. Great combination of crispy, soft, savory, and acidic. The kale Caesar salad was also delicious. Fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. At this point, I was thinking 5 stars and was excited enough to come back the very next day. Second Visit - A Different Experience I ordered: * Beet Poke * Mushroom Bao * Kale Caesar Salad * Potato Pizza Unfortunately, things were much more inconsistent. The beet poke was probably the biggest disappointment. There was barely any seaweed, very little textural contrast, and the dressing tasted completely different from the day before. It was also barely dressed. If this had been my first experience with the dish, I honestly would not have ordered it again. The mushroom bao was still good, but it didn't taste the same as the previous day. The slaw was noticeably spicy this time, whereas it hadn't been spicy at all on my first visit. It made me wonder if there were different chefs or if the recipes/preparations simply weren't being followed consistently. The kale Caesar was the one dish that remained consistent, still delicious on day two. The potato pizza was underwhelming and definitely something I wouldn't order again. The flavor combo wasn't working with me. We also got the gluten free crust which was not great. Almost more of a cracker than a pizza crust. The Verdict: If I were reviewing this restaurant based only on my first visit, I would have given it 5 stars. The food was fresh, creative, flavorful, and genuinely memorable. But after coming back the very next day and having several dishes taste noticeably different, I had to take a few stars away. I'm not sure if there were different chefs, different prep, or something else going on behind the scenes, but consistency is such a key part of a great restaurant experience, especially when you're paying restaurant prices. When a dish is fantastic one day and just okay the next, it's hard to know what experience you're actually going to get. The ambience is great, and while the service was friendly, it was also a bit slow. Overall, I still see the potential here, and my first visit was genuinely excellent. I just wish the second visit had lived up to it.

Nothing unique about it. I'm giving this 2 stars instead of 1 because their service compensates for what the food lacks. We told the waiter about the lackluster lobster dish, and they offered to serve another dish of our choice. We chose the Black Cod and not only is it cooked poorly imo, it smelled fishy and tasted a little too salty. But at least service was good, staffs were friendly, so there's that. If you only care about drinks and atmosphere, this may be the place for you. If you're looking for a decent meal, you can easily find a better fancy meal elsewhere at this price tag.
