Description

Nestled in a cozy corner, The Camels offers a delightful mix of flavors and health-conscious options, showcasing dishes like phenomenal chicken shawarma and impressive steak tacos. While the inviting atmosphere and friendly staff receive praise, a recent trend of shrinking portion sizes has left some diners feeling underwhelmed. However, the expansive happy hour menu, featuring delicious cheese curds and a build-your-own ramen concept, continues to charm. With fresh, quality ingredients and accommodating options, including dairy-free choices, The Camels remains a solid dining destination for food enthusiasts eager to explore its vibrant offerings.

I tried this restaurant for the first time and I was blown away. The chicken shawarma was phenomenal, and the steak taco was just as impressive. Both the chicken and the steak were of high quality. Additionally, the staff were incredibly friendly.

I really love the cozy tables at The Camels! Their happy hour menu is fantastic. The cheese curds are especially delicious. The chicken pancake is also quite large and absolutely tasty!

This place offers a great selection of healthy and delicious food at reasonable prices. The service is friendly, and the environment is impeccably clean. I will definitely be returning!

Cute little place. The build your own Ramen was good. The place is really clean and the food is fresh. Employees are friendly, and explain the menu to you. They have a small parking lot, which you don't find often in the area. You do have to pay to park there though. Would definitely go back.
