    Took my best friend to Camper for her birthday and had a great brunch! Staff was great and food was awesome. Everyone made a point to acknowledge her birthday. It was such a great time. A dinner with family over the holidays was equally a great meal. Camper is my favorite restaurant in menlo park.

    We had a going away dinner for a colleague. The staff were very helpful in ahead of time in ensuring we had space for our group of 14. The service was excellent and handled the large party expertly. drinks and meals came quickly and service was attentive throughout the night. Everyone enjoyed their food. We had starts of calamari, escargot, and charcuterie which were all excellent. I had the cassoulet as my main and it was also great. Overall it was a wonderful night and between the food and service it felt very special.

    My husband and I really enjoy Left Bank. The food is very reliable and the hamburgers (which we usually get when we go to the bar) are superb. The combination of the perfectly cooked fries, the crisp pickle, and the delicious cheeseburger is just exactly right.
