Family had recommended Cameron's for seafood and fish platters. After hearing how good their fried…read moreoysters, black bass, rockfish and perch platters were, I decided to give them a try. I ordered a pint of fried oysters, yes a pint for myself, the oysters were fresh, perfectly fried, crispy, not greasy and tasted delicious. Condiments included Cholula Hot Sauce and Heinz Tartar Sauce. The only additional item I could have used was a lemon wedge. Service was friendly, after ordering I was asked to return in 20 minutes, 19 minutes after ordering I walked back into Cameron's and my food was ready. Definitely will return for more oysters and will give fried fish options, especially the bone fish options a try.

Ugh... where do I even start?! I ordered the "Ultimate" fried seafood platter and it was anything…read morebut. I swapped the usual fish for ocean perch (bone) and received THREE tiny, toddler-sized fillet strips and that I paid an up-charge. Then came the shrimp situation -- 3 "spiced" steamed shrimp that had zero seasoning and tasted rubbery, plus 3 battered shrimp that showed up as rock-hard, nearly black coconut shrimp. Completely unacceptable. I'll give credit where it's due: the roll, fries, and crab cake were decent. That's the only reason this isn't a complete zero across the board. But the second order sealed it for me -- those stuffed shrimp should have NEVER left the kitchen. Hard, burnt, overcooked, inedible... The mac and cheese was watery and running all over the plate like soup. Only the fried okra was halfway decent. Cameron's seriously needs new cooks and better management. This was a waste of money, and I won't be returning.

It's perfect for my sister and I, who are vegetarians, and it's within walking distance of the main strip of Anacostia. Change has to start somewhere and this store is just the beginning.

I could've eaten here every day while on my assignment because the menu is insane. I ordered the Jumbo fried shrimp and Shrimp fried rice. The shrimp were fried perfectly and seasoned to the T. The fried rice was the best I've had in a long time. I loved that it had bean sprouts, they provide the necessary crunch and not too greasy. Jam packed with shrimp. Legit good food and its inexpensive. Now the customer service is terrible. The gentlemen that was running the front was also assisting with cooking. We waited about 5 minutes to even get our order taken. And when he did take our order it was very rushed as if he had no time for us. They do have parking out front and the back of the place.
