My family has been coming to Campfire for years, but this past weekend we made it official: Campfire is our favorite restaurant! Always the best service and the most flavorful and unique dishes (and drinks). Thank you Campfire!

This is a top restaurant. You got to figure out why. Broccoli is what everyone starts with. Charbroiled first and finished with crunchy peanuts. The atmosphere is good, and the food is even better. Campfire is a no brainer for good and eclectic food.

After a long time I had a 11/10 experience. The best ribeye in town with a great service and ambiance. Truth to be told I would love to see another cut of beef in the menu as well.

Fantastic dinner at Campfire and recommend checking it out. Amazing decor, great service, nice, simple and elegant menu and everyone was very helpful. Fun vibe for a date night and a hidden gem in Carlsbad.

Among new American restaurants, this one really stands out. Nothing too salty or heavy, just beautifully fire-roasted dishes with well-balanced, flavorful sauces. The dessert was a highlight: a very creative panna cotta, layered with watermelon and bright citrus notes — surprisingly good and memorable. As untrained diners, we felt the complexity of flavors in some dishes almost hit a Michelin one-star level.🌟

I was told repeatedly how phenomenal Campfire was. My expectations were high, and even those were surpassed. All the food was absolutely delicious. The presentation, the service, the atmosphere. They excelled in all of these. I was extremely glad we came here for my girlfriend’s birthday. They were so kind and courteous. Absolutely worth a 2 hour drive just to dine at this establishment.

Campfire was a real treat for a birthday celebration. We opted for outdoor seating, which was on a lovely patio with heated lamps — so comfy it felt like we were inside! Food was superb, the waitresses really know the menu. Got the blueberry rosemary cornbread (yummy, melts in your mouth), beet salad (so fresh, goat cheese very good), mushroom cavatelli (the freshest pasta!!!), and finished off with a decadent pumpkin baked alaska (suchhhh a treat!). Can’t recommend this restaurant enough. It was the perfect end to a fun day in Carlsbad.

We celebrated our anniversary here, and everything was truly exceptional. The food was incredible — the ribeye and the octopus were absolutely amazing! For dessert, we had the Alaska, and it was delicious. The cocktails were also on point and perfectly crafted.
