    BBQ meats were bland, I saw Smoke coming out of smoker's chimney, but did not detect any smoky flavor or seasoning on the brisket or ribs. Got 3 small skinny ribs that were old & dry. BBQ not avail until 4 pm. I came 4 pm, should have been freshly made. I asked for fresh ribs instead. Potato salad was sadly inedible, Pieces hard & kinda crunchy, was very dry, not creamy and zero seasoning. I asked for fried sweet potato instead. They were very good about exchanging the not so good stuff and replacing. The new ribs were meaty and moist, yet sadly lacking any smoke or seasoning. The sweet potatoes were the best thing of meal, fresh crispy and delicious. The side salad was good. The man who brought the replacements was very apologetic and hoped I was happy with it. He came back and checked on me again, which I appreciated very much, thank you. First time here and was hoping for good bbq. Another couple was dining on the same outdoor picnic table. They understood my requesting replacements, said been here many times when visiting her parents down the road, and it's been hit or miss on several occasions. They said their brisket & tri tip today was also just kinda ok. Was better another time,

    Spicy ribs

    Stopped in for a late lunch on a Saturday around 3 p.m. and the place was not packed. We even got a parking spot. It's a plain table-and-chairs type of establishment. You order at the register and the food is brought to you. I hate when they ask for a tip before you are served, and this place does just that. Hubby tipped 15%. Service involved having our food brought to our table. There are no garbage cans; you can't clear your leftover mess. You leave it. So, they deserve a tip. We had a pulled pork sandwich, a steak sandwich, ribs, a sample platter, and chicken salad. Sides included sweet potato fries, cole slaw, and onion rings. All were very good. The ribs were so spicy we thought they were Jamaican-jerk style. My daughter, who ordered them, was not pleased. Hubby and I ate most of them. I loved the chicken salad with apples, not so sure about the mustard, but it was OK. Lunch for 5 with sides, beverages, tax, and tip was $126.

    They are rude. Service is no good. Food is mid. Did not give utensils and condiments for our to go order.

    Brisket Breakfast Burrito
    AndyMike E.

    My friend has been coming here for years and she finally broke the secret by inviting my husband and I. We came on a Saturday morning at 10AM. A third of the tables were taken and there was only 3 parties ahead of us in line to order. There is ample outdoor seating (some shaded in the vine-covered pergola), which is great for dogs and watching horses trotting by. There are about a dozen tables inside if you wanted to escape the elements. The only drawback is the limited parking. This place reminds me of East Austin - rustic, converted spaces turned into a dinette or cafe. And, the service reflect the laid-back atmosphere - counter ordering, beverages you pick up at an adjacent counter before sitting, food delivered to tables by order number placards, and self-service leftover boxes. The cashier was friendly and the bussers chatted with regular customers & smiled often. I ordered the Brisket Breakfast Burrito - tender smoked brisket with egg, cheese, beans and hash browns rolled into a grilled tortilla. I could have done without the beans and a side of sour cream along with the side of salsa would have made the dish perfect for my preferences. My husband had the Mom's Biscuits and Gravy - pepper gravy over crumbly & buttery biscuits, flavorful chopped sausage, and instead of eggs they allowed a substitution of fresh cut fruit. The diced seasoned breakfast potatoes were really yummy too. As a sharable side, I ordered the Parm Garlic Fries - crispy thin-cut wide fries that was the perfect vehicle for the salty parm, fragrant garlic, and herbaceous rosemary and basil blend. The only downside was the fries arrived warm, not hot (probably cooling at the pass while the runner waited for another entree). I'd order it again with the request for extra crispy fries. I also enjoyed the cold brew coffee that packed a lovely amount of caffeine. My husband liked the peach arnold palmer a lot - it was well mixed and sweet. As we sat inside, we watched the steady line grow while was enjoyed the meal and caught up with you dear friend (2 hours long). A former spin class buddy who my friend hadn't seen in 7 years happened to be there too, so this place really felt like a welcoming, neighborhood spot. By the way, my friend ordered the Breakfast Quesadilla, which looked really good and well stuffed. I look forward to coming here again...and definitely on the earlier side to ensure the line is short.

    Chorizo Skillet, Chai Latte
    Sarah L.

    Recently, I had Sunday breakfast at Basecamp Dinette with a friend, who previously dined here and recommended it. We parked nearby and arrived at around 9:15am. There was a queue, but it moved quickly. We ordered at the counter and picked-up our drinks there as well. After finding a table, our food came out in about 15 minutes. The service was fast & friendly, and the ambiance is casual & homey. For my entree, I ordered the Chorizo Skillet with a sunny side up egg ($15.99). The skillet was flavorful and filling. It came with a side of corn tortillas, which were warm, but stuck together in the foil, making them hard to pull apart. The skillet can be sharable, so I ate half and took the rest home. There were self-serve takeout containers by the entrance of the restaurant. For my drink, I ordered a hot Chai Latte ($5.00). Unfortunately, their steamer wasn't working at the time, so I had to get it iced. It was fragrant, but a tad too sweet and milky for me.

    Came here for coffee and a quick breakfast with friends. A lot of people stop by to grab some coffee and a pastry before headed to work. It filters through pretty quickly. Their pastries were the star of this place. So many I wanted to try but I had their homemade biscuit and I've been thinking about it for days. Other than that had their latte which was solid and their English muffin breakfast sandwiches that were tasty. Quick, easy, solid all around. There are a few tables inside but seemed more like a grab and go place. They have a parking lot but street parking is also available.

    Great local hidden brunch spot. Parking felt super easy and the style was casual and dog friendly! I would come back here again. The coffee was really good and it's an easy place to eat at. It felt super busy but not packed. I'm sure on the weekend it can get pretty packed so I do think be prepared hahah! The food was solid!

    Breakfast Burrito
    Andrew C.

    Tried this place out near my work and I really kiked the overall vibe. They serve both food and coffee which is great for a lunch break. The breakfast burrito was pretty good, and the coffee tasted great! Only complaint was that it took a long time for the food to come out and they weren't that busy. I did have to check in eventually to ask how much longer I had to wait for my order. The coffee itself came out quickly which I appreciated!

    Basecamp is a cafe and coffee shop that is feels like a casual neighborhood hangout. The food and coffees drinks were very good and the service is friendly and helpful. We tried the brisket burrito and the Basecamp burrito; both were excellent and a nice size. We also ordered the waffle with fresh berries, and the Asian chicken salad. The ingredients were good quality and fresh. There is a lot of outdoor covered and uncovered seating and indoor, air conditioned seating. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming. You place your order either at the front counter or online and your order is delivered to the table. Parking is limited but street parking is available. Basecamp is a unique cafe experience with good food and helpful, friendly employees. Definitely stop by. 4.6

    This charming retro-modern restaurant with its novelty camping decor is adorable. It's like I found a sliver of R&R tucked neatly within a residential neighborhood. I could easily get lost here for hours in just the decor and menu alone. All it needed was horseshoes, s'mores, and ghost stories to complete the ambiance. Instead, it's got all that and more. Great coffee, easy service, and seriously delicious breakfast. First, I love how they branded every inch of this space with the Basecamp theme, including the menu. The front signage is brilliant and you can spot it from the street while driving by. The outdoor patio is made to feel like you're chillin' next to a parked RV. And it's lush. The picnic tables and outdoor greenery feels like you've escaped the concrete jungle, and you're somewhere out by a lake with lots of tall trees and maybe even a bear. Or rather, as hungry as one--which I was. As I walked up to the front of the line inside, I didn't mind the 10-minute wait since there were so many good choices on the menu. Chilequiles looked good. The portion looked like it could satisfy a lumberjack crawling out of hibernation. House-made Pasties? Yes, please. Bring on the fresh fruit cronut. Yes, it tasted as good as it looked. Flaky, buttery, and topped with a crystal sugary glaze, it beared fresh bananas, blueberries, and strawberries like a badge of honor. Huevos Rancheros - It was a fiesta of spices mingling with over easy eggs on top of warm corn tortillas, and topped with a ranchero sauce with just the right amount of heat. I like that they aren't shy about avocado rations and that the hash browns are perfectly crisp and buttery. I'd say the whole plate comes together like a campfire song everyone already knows the words to. Kumba-YUM!!!!!! Verdict: Hangry campers walk out feeling fueled up and happy to start their day. I did. Next time I come back, I'll turn off my cell and go off the grid and get lost in more of their house-made pastries*. *Scones, Biscuits & Jam, Coffee Cake, Fruit Danish, Morning Bun, Turnovers, Chocolate & Almond Croissants, Banana Bread

    Lunch review! Pretty tasty! Friendlier service at this hour too (i know its strange but ill make note of it.) I ordered the Buffalo Chicken Salad which was very good and a tad spicy with delicious cut bits of fried chicken. I noticed everyone else's food choices in the restaraunt also looked very well presented. A new note for this lunch was the line got pretty busy for the weekend noon hour; but that is expected for how good this place is. It wasn't a quick line though, slower than usual, but we got there :) There was still a good amount of seating with their picnic style benches which some folks shared and the inside with smaller seating. Good for families and saw kids with their parents seated comfortably. The picnic tables actually allowed more room for the kids to move about. I would recommend this place for lunch, yes!

    Breakfast Tacos
    Marcela L.

    We visited base camp dinette after a morning at Griffith Park. Finding parking was a breeze. There was a long line but it moved quickly and it gave us time to look through the menu. They have an array of pastries with vegan options. The person taking the orders was knowledgeable on what was dairy free, which I appreciated. There was ample seating outside, even on a weekend morning. I ordered the brisket breakfast burrito and it was so tasty and I can't wait to order it again.

    Perfect place for a chill brunch with friends! We got the brisket breakfast tacos and quesadillas, along with some of their lattes - all so good! The vibes were laid back and I loved the outdoor seating area and open concept as well. Highly recommend! It's also pretty easy to find street parking nearby tldr 5/5 food - brisket breakfast tacos were superb, good bang for your buck as well 5/5 service - you order at the counter and the line moves fast! 5/5 vibes - chill, laidback, good vibes overall

Employees were super friendly and we were excited that they were showing the telemundo World Cup coverage. The menu was great. We split the carnitas plate and got Long Island iced tea. The brought out complimentary chips and salsa as well. The salsa was so good! The carnitas plate was awesome. It came with rice and beans and plantains. It was perfect for us to split. If we were still hungry, we already had planned on ordering à la carte tacos, but the plate was perfect. We were pleased. The menu was great, food was good, drink was good, and we had a nice time! I'll definitely come back!

Completely different menu. Food was beyond sub par you can make the food at home and would taste better! Save your money. Everything we had from two orders of "taquitos", "esquite", quesadillas and a blood orange mojito. The only thing with a bit of flavor was the esquite, but again to pay for roasted corn on the cob with just mayo and cheese? For $13 ? NEVER AGAIN. I have a problem with the way they name their items which is a bit misleading. For example, they have an item called taquitos, meaning you would expect a rolled fried taquitos. What came was tacos dorados so why is it named taquitos? They DID write on the menu that it's fried tacos..but again why are they not just calling it TACOS DORADOS? Same with esquite typically esquites are corn off the cob but this was on the COBB and yes it was described on the menu as on the Cobb but again why not call it ELOTE instead of esquite. Clearly this is semantics but just frustrating. If you want authentic Mexican food there is a Don Cuco's around the block that is WAY better than this place. They are at a different tier than this Kalavera's location. If you're a drinker perhaps that would make the food taste better...so disappointed and a waste of money!

I also ordered their basic breakfast, which includes three eggs, and I opted for fruit (although you can get home fries, hash browns, and other sides as well). The pancakes were warm and fluffy, and the fresh berries went really well with them. Everything tasted fresh, the portions were great, and the meal came out hot and nicely prepared. The eggs were prepped over medium, as requested. The eggs plus the fruit made for a quick and healthy breakfast, complemented perfectly by the pancakes. Overall, this was a great breakfast experience. Good food, great portions, welcoming service, and a comfortable neighborhood atmosphere. Parking and seating can be a little challenging because of the restaurant's size and popularity, but the food makes it well worth the visit. I'll definitely be back to try some of their Mexican breakfast dishes, especially the chilaquiles.
