Camille's Sidewalk Cafe

I wanted to like this place due to its convenience and location. I was on the way to Ike's and decided what the hell, let's try this spot...

I wish I read yelp reviews before but basically everyone is spot on. The food is just plain bland... pretty 'meh'. It's obvious this spot makes very little from scratch and they are just putting together food from their food delivery service. The chicken in the sandwich I had was oddly mushy, almost fake like. Had the texture and flavor of mushy sliced pre cooked chicken strips you get in the grocery store next to the lunchables and bologna.

Something had a weird sour flavor in my wrap and even the soda tasted funny. Such a waste of my $10, I should have just gone to Ike's. I guess that's what I get for trying something different without checking yelp first!

Horrible experience!

I ordered the chef salad to-go and it took over 20 minutes for them to make it. Mind you this salad does not have anything that needs cooking. When picking up the salad it was also missing a couple of items. I was also watching them put the orders together and both people there looked like they had no idea what they were doing. I will never go here again.

STAY away out of this place!!!

I decided to try this place because there was a huge line in Ike's Sandwiches. The panini is most terrible that I ever ate. The bread tastes like it was poured in water. They put TINY piece of bitter undercooked eggplant with goat cheese. I don't know if this is the combination of ingredients or just their quality, but it tasted like old socks.

Despite the fact that I ate only the quarter of the panini, they refused to do anything about it. They just keep saying "You ate a half of this, You ate a half of this".

There is awesome "Ike's Sandwiches" and a few other places just next to it. Stay away of this place!

Time for a rant...

Maybe because I missed the lunch crowd I didn't get a good read on the place, but I have to say it was a pretty lame experience.

Wraps were uninspired and bland. The $7 Tex Mex Club Wrap had no flavor and I ended up using the salsa for the chips to try and make the wrap palatable.

The $4 Orange Sunshine Smoothie I ordered wasn't done for another 15 minutes after we got our wraps! Worse was the fact that the "fresh" oranges had gone bad. I originally thought I was drinking orange juice and champagne, the juice had fermented that bad!! Yuck!

The first time I came here was only because it is a block down from where I used to work. It looked like the kind of place that would have great salads and sandwiches, almost like a Panera. WRONG!

The first time I went there I got an eggplant mozzarella sandwich that tasted pretty bland, not to mention an hour or so after eating I got sick and tossed my lunch (which I should have done earlier!). Didn't go back for months. Second time around, I thought, maybe I should give them another chance. WRONG again! I ordered a garden salad which was literally some lettuce and 4 tomato slices for $8, which I could have easily made something much, much better for less time and money. Fortunately, this lunch did not get tossed.

The staff was slow, could hardly understand English, and was a bit rude. Most of the co-workers I had gone with agreed that this place was just a big no-no. Maybe there are other great items on the menu, I just can't or won't be able to try them. Too bad! I'm not going back. Good luck if you decide to go.

Walked by decided to try it, got the turkey sandwich, literally nothing special. You know that sand which mom used to make for you to take the school? I kid you not its the exact same thing.........no special bread, no avocado...nothing. $8 for a plain sandwich. Probably won't be coming back.

I like the idea of this place but that's about it. It has an extensive menu so I plan to update this review as I try more items. Hoping it will improve!

Had the chicken gyro. Very disappointed. Expected nice cooked chunks of savory chicken. That was not the case. My gyro was loaded with chicken lunch meat!!! Bland chicken lunch meat at that. It was basically a chicken sandwich in a pita! Nothing special. Came with tortilla chips and salsa. The salsa tasted like bottles Pace brand. Again nothing special. I ate only because I was really hungry and had already waited like 6 minutes for this delicacy despite being the only order. Ha! Staff not super friendly either. Going back to see if it was an isolated incident.

Love the Italian roast beef panini. I usually come in here during my lunch hour. The owner and cashier are very nice, and are always going out of their way to make the customers happy.

They also have kebabs and gyros on their menu but I haven't gotten a chance to try those yet. Rock on Camilles!!

Camille's is a great place to go for lunch! They have yummy wraps that feels healthy and the paninis are just delicious. It's also very close to my work so it's a great place to grab a fast light lunch! With each order also comes with a side of multi-colored chips with their homemade salsa! Yums!

My favorite here is the following:
Spicy Chicken Tender Jalapeno - spicy chicken tenders, Provolone, salsa, ranch dressing
Napa Valley Chicken made with Focaccia bread, grilled chicken breast, Provolone, sun-dried tomato pesto, mushrooms, red onions, balsamic glaze

Only sucky thingy is the parking! But it's worth the hassle!

Rosalia ROCKS!

We have been getting take out lunches for executive meetings here at Camille's for the last year. My execs just LOVE the Turkey Jabanero Panini! Not kidding, we got a whole tray of them today! haha

Today was different, however. Today... I was too busy to put the large order in a day before like they request. I called them with a 1 hour notice to make lunch for 20 people. I honestly DID NOT expect them to react well to my request. I mean, who would? right?

This woman who answered told me if I picked it up she was certain they could accommodate my request. and she even offered to call her manager to ask if a delivery was possible. Impressed, yes, but I decided I should not be totally lazy and go pick it up.

They had all of my orders ready on time and didn't even forget the plates and napkins! Everything was wrapped up nice and tight and Rosalie even carried everything out to my car with me and made sure it was secure for the drive back to my office.

oh yah, I almost forgot. when i told them to do assorted wraps - she asked me how long it would be sitting out and then suggested i not get the chicken tender wraps because they are hot and tend to soggy up everything around them. AWESOME personalized service.

Thank you, Camille's! We will be back!
