    A very enjoyable Christmas lunch. Seeing you have British in your name, you could offer a more British option too. How to improve for next year - turkey as an option, real Christmas pudding, crackers. Nevertheless, we enjoyed the fixed price menu.

    Wow, what a DELICIOUS meal we enjoyed tonight. From the PICKLED VEGETABLES, the LITTLE LETTUCE SALAD, to the my DUNGENESS CRAB TAGLIOLINI, the food was on point. All four of us enjoyed our respective entrees. There was a small snafu with our second round of drinks, but the EXCELLENT ATTENTIVENESS of the manager, Sarah, quickly and happily resolved everything. Our wait staff was very attentive too. We will definitely be back for dinner again and we were thrilled that CAMPER delivered…AGAIN.
