While I'll have to say that the ambience of the interior is nice and fits the theme, the food and service qas hit or miss with our group's dinner. In terms of food and drink, my maple bourbon braised brisket and campfire drink was delicious. The shared artichoke dip was also good with the bread served with it. For others in my group, the fried turmeric collarflower and pasta was not that great. And the way the porkchop was served could have been done better. For the most part, service was ok, except when someone in our group asked for his steak fries to be served before his entree and got them with/after his entree came. read more

Amazing experience all around. I'll start with the place environment. The restaurant has a cozy, more intimate atmosphere. Very nice for a date night and for luxurious meals experience. Clean and well designed floor plan. We did not set at the bar, but it was very full and it looked like a very nice area to unwind after a long week/day. The kitchen area what I was absolutely in love with the most. It's very open and the lighting is distributed very well. The aroma of the food was just divine. Staff: the welcoming guests staff, she was super friendly and polite. Had our reservation ready in les than 10secs. We were escorted to our booth; she had gone over our reservation notes and was very knowledgeable about food restrictions we had added to our reservation. (Not a lot of places actually train their staff to understand all different food requirements, so I was really impressed) Our waitress was absolutely amazing and she had taken care of us very well. Our drinks, food, and side dishes arrived very quickly. She had attended us at all right times to check on us and was super wonderful. Thank you Madison, Food experience: expect this to be a high-end quality and an expensive outing. If you are trying to impress your partner, family or just for yourself pleasure this is the place to go for a great time. The food was delicious. We only had vegetarian/non-meat dishes and nonalcoholic drinks. Everything, and I mean everything was just perfect. If I could eat the meat they had I would try it, but I have food restrictions and I truly can't imagine how the meat dishes would taste, if the vegetarian options were absolutely scrumptious. We are going back for another try for their brunch menu, and I'll update this post with more pictures and information. - Dishes we ordered: House-made Pita Bread & Ricotta French onion soup Stuffed Delicata Squash Oyster Mushrooms Pried Brussel Sprouts - Drinks: The forager (mock-tail) Ice tea read more

This is my wife I's new favorite restaurant. Thr only problem is we live over 200 miles from it . The service, environment, and food was perfect. Whomever is coming up with their recipes deserves an award. Treat yourself and make a reservation! read more

Food was outstanding as was the service. Definitely worth stopping by and enjoying a craft-cocktail before dinner Highly recommend. read more

More like GLAMPground! Wonderful and delicious upscale dishes and craft drinks. A wonderful place to get dressed up and enjoy elevated dishes and be serviced by smartly dressed servers. Our hostess seated us professionally even though this place was pumping. The decor is no campground, but a fantasy of a campground. Just saying it's elevated. Our server took great care of us. They have a revolving changing punch recipe. Also, I did mention a full bar with a lot of craft inspired drinks. All the accoutrements needed for ohh lala drinks and not! read more

My girlfriend and I had reservations for 5:30pm on a Saturday evening. When we arrived, we were greeted and seated promptly, so it didn't feel the reservation was necessary at all. The front of the restaurant is well lit with natural lighting but we opted for the booths further in the back for a more intimate experience. Although it took awhile for our server to come around, he was very friendly and provided some drink recommendations - we went with the Up a Creek and the Forager, which are both popular drinks at this restaurant. For our main course, I had the boneless 20oz ribeye cooked medium rare, and my girlfriend had the scallops. The wait for food did take quite a bit of time, but was worth the wait. My steak had a nice char and was cooked perfectly. I only wish the steak knife was a bit more sharpened; it took some sawing to get a nice cut. The scallops were also cooked very well. Main Course: 8.5-10 Drinks: 7.5/10 (lost rating because they were very weakly made and we aren't strong drinkers, so that's saying something) read more

The drinks were excellent very unique. Host, bartender and server were all nice and professional. Love the open kitchen. We had the ribeye and rack of lamb both were cooked perfectly. Corn on the cob(a side dish special)that evening and mashed potatoes both excellent. We will be back next time we're in town! read more

Probably the best Steak I've had- but the waiter was not very attentive. Probably worth the wait but for the price, I'd expect better service. They need to turn the heater down too- had to stand outside for awhile to cool off. But again- the steak was amazing and the appetizers were delicious. Compliments to the chef- I hope the tip was shared with you!! Definitely recommend. read more

We were ready for a good meal after traveling for several days. My husband and I split our dinner: Cobb salad, 20 ounce rib eye and mashed potatoes. Everything was delicious. The rib eye was prepared with a seer from the open flames that added flavor. The mashed potatoes had plenty of flavor without me adding anything else to it. The Cobb salad was a very generous portion with nice chunks of bacon. It was definitely a good choice to eat here! read more

Fantastic food! Great service! We got there 30 minutes early to our reservation and were seated in 5. The steak was amazing, the lamb was perfect, and the burger was delicious. We got the tune crude as an app and it was just the right about of savory and tuna-y. We got the crème brûlée and s'mores cake for dessert. Fantastic dishes. The ambiance was very cozy and warm, as befits the name: Campground. read more

Came on. Friday night, was lucky to get a seat at the bar within 5 minutes, very popular. Had the French onion soup and cream brûlée matched with 2 glasses of Riesling. Perfect light meal. All staff working great to get everyone served. $36 total for the meal and 20% tip was earned by the staff. Highly recommended. read more

I had such a lovely dinner here! The ambiance itself was divine, so warm and woody! Service was absolutely divine as well! All of the waiters and waitresses had such kind and peaceful energy. I ordered the lamb chops with a side of mashed potato's. The lamb chop was perfectly charred on the outside but medium rare on the inside--just as I requested. I noted that the chimichurri was paired so perfectly with the flavors of the soft mashed potatoes as well as the lamb chop. For drinks, I ordered the forager! Let me say I was so impressed and had to order a second :) I can't wait to go back. My night here was amazing. Blessings! Thank you! read more

Campground - a man sitting at a table with a plate of food - New American Near Me - Arcata, California

What a gem of a near perfect restaurant in the most beautiful town in Northern California serving the best brunch and dinner! I had never been to Arcata before but this quaint little town with so many interesting history and it's own college nestled just north of Eureka is one of the few remaining places that preserves its beautiful downtown with old architectural style of 50's and early 60's marvelous America as seen in many nostalgic movies. When you walk into this quaint little restaurant you will be whisked away into the Time Machine which takes you to the Happy Days era. The hostess in front of firewood stacks, nearby old saloon's bar and warm ambience of wooden tables and chairs invite you to the time when everything was old and perfect! The service is quick and foods are served hot. I had the best fried chicken and waffles but the others had wonderful burrito and steak salad. I liked my chicken which was served hot right out of the fresh deep frying oil. The waffle was thick and perfectly made. I strongly recommend you try this one out. read more

Fogged in on a Monday night. Not a lot open in Arcata on a Monday night after 9 pm. But Campground is. And Hallelujah! I was by far and away the last (and soon the only) customer in the restaurant and no one bat an eye when I dropped my order on the kitchen eight minutes before closing. The short version of this story (leaving out the rant about Avelo Airlines), includes two very nice glasses of wine (a Montepulciano d'abruzzo, I think), a very nice hunk-o-swordfish, and a very nice bartender named Lizzy. Another reason why I love Arcata. read more

Came in a couple weeks ago and was pretty disappointed. We ordered two "Prime" New Yorks and the scallops entree. One of the cuts was a poor cut and very fatty. The other cut was fine. Both steals were cooked to the propped medium rare requested but the steaks were chewy and tough. If these were indeed "Prime" they had no age on them. The scallops were just flat out disappointing. 3 small scallops and some various vegetables. Definitely not what i would consider an entree. Looked like a fine place to have a drink and get a burger. Anything more than that I'd be hesitant to waste my money. Giving an extra star because the server was pleasant. other than that I'd skip this one in the future. read more

Waited 1.5hrs for a waste of a steak! Overcooked and no flavor! Ran out of rib-eyes and forced us to get a much more expensive steak, because it was all that was left! Way too slow!!! Also didn't help that we were the only Hispanics in the restaurant! Don't waste your time, Not worth the wait! read more

The service is banana slug slow. They are charging Los Angeles money for pretty mediocre food. The last 3 visits have been sub par. To add insult to injury my wife's duck dish was completely overcooked, no seasoning and inedible. It took the team 40 mins to replace it with a cheeseboard. The evening was really very bad. All style no substance. read more

My boyfriend and I came here for drinks 45 minutes before they closed and they still delivered the best drinks and customer service! We sat at the bar and the two bartenders that helped us were so lovely, gave us drink details and recommendations, and even checked on us frequently. Unfortunately we didn't order any food but when plates came out for other tables, it all looked good and smelt good! Drinks were 10/10! We would definitely come back here to eat and drink the next time we're in town again! read more

Campground - Absolutely best steak I've ever had in a restaurant. And it was just as delicious on day two. Worth the drive worth the price. - New American Near Me - Arcata, California

Well I'd love to review the food but I can only review the service. I had a reservation for 5:30, got there exactly at that time and we were told we were 20 minutes late. I know for a fact I had made it for this time because I originally wanted it for 5 and the server said "No, how's 5:30?" And I agreed. The waitress admitted that their computer messes up sometimes but told us there was absolutely nothing she could do about it. When I told her I had called and left a message she said that she has no idea who took my reservation in the first place because "she's the only one answering the phone". So even though I had only made my reservation about two hours before... And you're the only one that answers the phone... You don't remember anyone under my name calling and making a reservation... And you admit that your computers mess up "all the time"... But I'm still not allowed to come and have my date night dinner I've been looking forward to for over a month? Will not be coming back and will not be recommending. Rude, careless, waste of my time and too bad for them because I had a $300 dinner and drinks tab to run up. I'm suspicious that because my boyfriend and I are an alt looking couple they had zero care to have people with tattoos and piercing in their establishment. I still can't get over how rude the hostess was. Just fully admitting that our reservation getting messed up had nothing to do with us, everything to do with THEM, and just looked at us like we were shit out of luck. NEVER again! read more

Great experience from the hostess to Madison the server and the beautiful portions shown here in my pics. It was washed down with the Fox Den - smoke added. Lucy, bar tender at Humboldt Provisions, suggested this place. Go to her for recommendations. She's spot on. read more

Campground - New American Near Me - Arcata, California

We typically go to Campground once a month. The food is almost always spot on. However, when paying $250 and up it should be spot on 100% of the time. This past weekend the service was absolutely terrible. We had the impression that the server knows the tabs are large and tips will be good so no extra effort made. We watched as she played on phone and ignored us for 10/15 minutes with empty drinks. Meal was mediocre this time. There needs to be an owner making presence known, talking to diners, asking about service and meals, not just collecting money. Oh and the light fixtures have never been cleaned since opening read more

This place is amazing. Get the Butcher Block as an appetizer with things like Duck Prosciutto with fig jam, Chicken Liver Mousse and the House Smoked Bacon with sweet and spicy miso glaze and you'll be in heaven before the main course. The steaks are huge - enough to split with someone. This is a fantastic place but just know that it is very expensive. And worth every penny... read more

We were in town for stuff and tried this place since we were told it was the best food in town... it was incredibly good! We haven't tried all the other restaurants so can't say one way or the other but the deviled eggs from the appetizer menu were fantastic and the steaks were perfect! read more

This place was great. You definitely want a reservation but we were able to sit at the bar (party of 2). So glad this place is open on Mondays since everywhere else was closed!! Atmosphere was great. Bartending staff obviously working their butts off and they did a great job taking care of us, too. I had the Kale Caesar which came with smoked chicken -- I wish the smoked chicken made more of a "statement" in the salad and was warm instead of cold, but it was a great salad. Husband had the Wagyu steak with umami butter which was just phenomenal. Perfectly cooked and amazing flavor. Glad we stumbled on this spot! read more
