This place was surprisingly good! The servers were very nice and it was cute but casual inside. We got the ribeye with Mac and cheese and the corn salad, and the pulled pork sandwich with fries. I liked that there was seasoning on the fries but it wasn't my absolute fav. Not bad though! The ribeye was cooked to our liking and seasoned well! I was a little upset there wasn't any other vegetable option but you could get a side salad. I was just hoping for some broccoli or green beans. My other note is that it's a decent sized restaurant but they only have one bathroom. Pretty inconvenient. Otherwise this was a great stop!

Fried Green BLT salad with a burger patty added.

A great spot with tasty food, decent prices, and great service. I was checked in on multiple times to make sure i was well taken care of. I got the Fried Green Tomato BLT salad and added a burger patty to it. So delicious, just what I needed!

While visiting Helen this place had some great reviews so we gave it a shot . Service was excellent, from beginning to end. Our waitress Alyssa was very kind, attentive and made sure everything came out perfect. In addition the support provided from the other waiter and waitress was great to see. The place was slow and we were able to get seated immediately. However, even when a place can be slow there might not be enough follow up to make sure everything is good. This was not the case here at Campfire. Again, phenomenal service. Food was great. The nachos weren't your typical chips, they were wonton style, so a little soft and some crunch, but the plate was loaded. The chili came out hot and was loaded with toppings, loved the cornbread croutons in it. The smash burger was very filling, stacked with 2 patties, bacon, soft bread and great side of fries. Overall would come back to check out more items in the menu. Once again, excellent service complimented the food.

Ribeye, Mexican street corn, Alabama white sauce slaw

Came in with a group 6 in total we all ordered something different and it was all delicious. Get the Ribeye it's so worth it!!!

Campfire is a must have if you are hungry and looking for a plate of food that is going to fill your stomach and make you leave feeling happy. Our server AJ was so pleasant and even with a full restaurant and a lot of people waiting to eat, the staff was pleasant and doing a great job at serving and pumping out food. I had the smash burger with bacon and it was delicious! The menu said the beef is locally sourced and the flavor/ seasoning was great! The fries were crispy and perfectly seasoned as well. Overall a great experience in a nice looking restaurant. If you are in Helen looking for a bite to eat, look no more!

Campfire signature smash burger (partially eaten sorry ) the lil campfire prod is way cute!

Our server was great Food was good. I would recommend the chips & queso! Decent food, mostly decent prices. The music was fire AF though so if you go to dinner in hopes of taking in some awesome tunes, you'll be happy here I do want to add they might want to check some of their entitled younger staff members. We originally sat outside but there were two toddlers that started screaming and crying. They continued for over 5 minutes so I asked if we could move inside. Literally after only being sat for 7 minutes and our server had only brought us water. Coming from the industry I understand this creates an issue with servers and their sections so I get it but to have a server be rude and make a snide comment "well let me know if the next one is actually my table and I can have my section back" AS SHE WALKED PAST OUR TABLE was so incredibly uncalled for. But I do understand her frustration. But being rude to the customer bc another customer made a situation very unpleasant isn't how you should handle it. I almost left 3 stars bc of this but it's not fair to everything and everyone else there that was awesome

Stopped in after our hike in Helen cause some of the locals recommended it to us. Everything was just alright. The place was pretty empty but the service was super slow. The pork was definitely the best thing we ordered but it was dry could use more sauce.

Helen Georgia~ Cute lil cafe! I had the fried green tomato salad. I love fried green tomatoes. These were nicely breaded, but very mushy and tasteless tomatoes. Disappointing, but the rest of the salad, including their smoked Caesar salad dressing, was really delicious. Cornbread croutons topped off the salad and they were super yummy. Everyone else had a version of the smash burger. One person had chili cheese fries, one person had a gluten-free bun, someone else had regular fries, and one also had the Mexican street corn salad. All agreed that the burgers were juicy and delicious! Sides were good too! Definitely would recommend this place, even though the service was extremely slow. I think the guys made the food with love and patience.

Jes B.

Ohhhh Yes! Love the food, unique, fun, and you can tell everything on the menu had thought put into it. You have to keep coming back because there's so many items I want to try! Everything we ate was delicious. Daughter had a burger, I had the nachos, husband had their fried chicken, son chicken fingers, other son had fish and chips. Omg the slaw is some of the best I've ever had!

After a fun afternoon making candles in Sautee Nacoochee we asked for lunch recommendations and this place sounded great. So we headed over to Helen for some burgers. There was a huge parking lot inside a plaza with other stores. Warning that my cell service was very intermittent while they to navigate here so plan ahead for directions. We took a seat and the menu had a lot of appetizing choices. We went with the smash burgers and they were delicious. The fries were well seasoned too. If I had room for dessert I would've kept going. I really wanted to try the campfire s'mores pie. The food was a 5/5. The service was good and attentive. My family and I were engaging In conversation and catching up with each other. Now this is where the lower rating comes in. We were politely asked to vacate our table after we had finished our food. We were deep in conversation and told that they were prepping for the dinner rush. I wouldn't say it is completely unfair to request this, however it wasn't the vibe we were going for. It did sour the experience the bit. If you are looking for a quick in and out meal, this is your place. The food is delicious and there are so many tempting things on the menu. However, if you are looking for a slower paced meal where you can chat and hang around a bit after, this is not the place.

Kat H.

We ordered the campfire smash and a plate of nachos. The burger was great! The nachos were an 8/10 for me, wonderful in house made chips but I do wish the toppings came with a little more meat, it felt a little stingy for the price. Flavor was great though! The restaurant is pretty small and our server was great, she gave us enough space and time to look over the menu without forgetting we were there. Would go again

Azalia P.

Campfire delivers amazing food, great service and a relaxed atmosphere! We started with the fried green tomatoes; absolutely unique flavors with feta, balsamic and hot honey...I could not get enough of these! Next up, a perfectly prepared smash burger with fresh toppings and seasoned fries; well prepared and carefully crafted food that makes you want to eat every bite on the plate. To compliment the amazing food, the service was very friendly and attentive! If you are in the town of Helen and hungry for GREAT food...CAMPFIRE will not disappoint! Try the fried green tomatoes...you can thank me later

What a great place to eat in Helen. Truly an exceptional meal. It took a minute to get waited on but they were very busy on a Friday night. It was WORTH THE WAIT!!!! My salad was amazing. My hubby had the chicken sandwich and said it was very good. We debated whether to got the smash burger or steak but the portions were huge! Others around us were enjoying them though!! The fried chicken looked delicious too. Top level dining. read more

In a world (NE Georgia) of not great restaurants Campfire is a standout. I've been three times so far and headed there tonight for trivia. The food is good but can be salty. I like the burger and the nachos. Service is usually pretty quick even if it looks like only a couple people work there. The interior is getting nicer. When we first went the overhead fluorescent lighting was pretty harsh. Now instead the dining room is light with strings of lights for a better, cozier feel. Keep getting better Campfire! read more

I can't say enough good things about this brand new entrant to the Helen restaurant scene. The hand cut 14 oz ribeye steak is easily the best in the county, and would hold its own in a big city restaurant. It was seasoned and cooked perfectly, and was served with a butter poached lobster tail that haunts my dreams. Another standout is the smashburger with crinkle fries. Desserts are made in house by the talented young pastry chef and are always fantastic. I give this place my highest possible recommendation! read more

Pathetic is all I have to say. We are in town for my mother's birthday, it was a busy night and we knew there would be a wait. so we put our name down and waited about 35-40 mins. Time goes by and we are taken inside and seated. A couple minutes later, the manager , I assume comes over to us and says that this table was wrongly given to us and we needed to leave. He said that a 12 top needed to fit here and there clearly was no room for that. He than quickly ran away from us. Very sad that your employees sat us and we were kicked out. We will be giving out business elsewhere. I work at a restaurant and this type of service is pathetic. We were very excited to go to this spot but clearly we will not be back. read more

The food was fine. Nothing great, as the chili was room temperature and the portions didn't seem worth the price. The trouble was the service. Once we got sat at our table, we waited about 10 minutes before anyone came up to ask us for drinks. After we got waters, it took another 10 min for them to be delivered at our table. Our waitress took 5 minutes to get a side of ranch and kept forgetting about us throughout the meal. Wouldn't come back, it was just alright. read more

It wasn't near a large pieces as it used to be and it was no longer the crunchy batter on it that I was used to getting. What happened to grandma's crunchy fried chicken recipe.

Not bad but not good and with a thicker batter. The hush puppies were small but very good. The fries were batter coated and looked like typical food service fries. Megan's sandwich looked good but the salmon was over cooked and tasted earthy. Salmon is a fish, salmon live in in the ocean. How are they earthy? Anyway Megan said the best part of her meal was the fries. Maybe we ordered the wrong thing. This place gets a lot of love but I'd eat at Captain D's for better food for way less money. My plate was $27 and Captain D's is currently advertising a fish and shrimp plate for $7. I will be reviewing that one soon.

Booty's Fish House

If you want to know where the locals go, this is it. Booty's has been an institution for as long as…read moreI can remember. The food is served buffet-style and the offerings are Southern home cooking. The star of the show is the fried catfish, which on my recent visit felt like it melted in my mouth. Chicken, country ham tilapia, and Brunswick stew are among other offerings. There are also desserts. My only complaint on our recent visit was that the Brunswick stew was only lukewarm. On the night we visited, there was a bluegrass band for entertainment, but ambiance is sparse. This is a place that you come to eat, not to stare at the walls. Service is friendly, but being a buffet place, there isn't a lot of interaction aside from drinks and refills.

It's a buffet, of mostly fried food, seafood. They had some really great green beans, fried okra, fried shrimp, fried fish, Brunswick stew, and biscuits. There were some other things to try, including a couple of cobblers for dessert. there were some nice young ladies, cleaning off the tables and being active in the dining room, which was nice. They were watching to make sure our drinks were filled. The food was hot and good. I'm not sure if they redid the decorations inside, but they have some old Timey things on the walls, kinda like a country place! You do have to wait in line and go through the buffet, but everybody was courteous. It's definitely worth the money.

The man that sits you down offered a table in the middle but I asked if there was any way to get a table by the window. Very rudely he said no. I was like okay guess he's having a bad day. We then proceeded to sit down and order our drinks. This man comes and asks, "what do you want?" He drops off the drinks and throws us our straws. At this point I suggest to my little brother that we go elsewhere. We paid for our drinks got up and left. I don't care if I have to drive another 20 min out. I'll never step foot in this restaurant again. I believe that person was the restaurant owner; it's a thin Asian man. If it is I'm surprised at the fact that the place is still standing.

We ordered the Wurst Platter, which came with Hungarian sausage and Weisswurst, sauerkraut, a crispy potato pancake, and spaetzle. It was hearty, flavorful, and a great option for anyone who wants to sample several traditional German favorites on one plate. Our server, Madi, was absolutely amazing. She had excellent suggestions, patiently answered all of our questions, and even brought out several beers for us to sample before we decided which one to order. She was kind, personable, and genuinely funny, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The atmosphere is unmistakably German, with traditional décor, a festive beer-hall feel, and live music that added so much energy to the room. Everything we saw coming out to the surrounding tables looked delicious, and people were clearly devouring their meals and enjoying themselves. It was one of those places where you could immediately tell the food and atmosphere were making everyone happy. Gutes Essen, kaltes Bier und beste Stimmung, Prost! (Good food, cold beer, and great vibes, cheers!) Overall, this was a fun and memorable dining experience with great service, comforting food, and an atmosphere that feels like a celebration. I would definitely return, especially with a group, to try more of the menu and enjoy the live music again.

Folks, we dont get out often, ( due to the APB fm Habersham County SD on me, Ha Ha!!). We are locals. Went to campfire yesterday, best steak, BY FAR, in the area. Had the filet and my wife had the rib eye. Both were GREAT. Although I'd like to drop names, I won't, but in comparison to other steaks we've tried in the area, both our cuts were great. These folks WILL BE our go-to place for a good piece of meat. Have to mention, be careful with the sides. The mashed potatoes were good, the mac and cheese was good. Need a little bread to go with the meal and add an appetizer beforehand. As I said in the opening, we dont go out often, but when we do, we will be headed to Helen, mid-week, early hours. (Locals, you know what I'm talking about) Give 'em a try , you won't be disappointed. I have no issues with adding my name to this post, these folks are good. Bentley Howard read more

Campfire in Helen is a must-visit! We stopped in for a meal and were blown away by the food, service, and overall experience. The smash burgers were absolutely awesome--perfectly crispy edges, juicy inside, and packed with flavor. The pulled pork sandwich was just as impressive, tender and full of smoky goodness. Beyond the food, the service was top-notch. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The ambiance was spot-on, with a cozy yet lively atmosphere that made for a great dining experience. The menu had a great selection, offering something for everyone. If you're in Helen and looking for a great meal, Campfire is the place to go. We'll definitely be back! read more

For starters, the service was amazing, and we had the sweetest waitress. The atmosphere was nice and family friendly. Finally, the food....it was outstanding! Would recommend it to anyone! We only had two pics of what we ordered, but the rest of our group tried several other dishes, apps, and sides. It was all fantastic! We were just visiting for the weekend but this a place I definitely wish was local to me! read more
