The Scene – Moneyed couples occupy a row of booths outfitted in crushed (and slightly worn) tawny velvet, while dressed-up out-of-towners sit properly in contemporary leather two-tone chairs. A fleet of observant servers pass to and fro on the harlequin-patterned floor. Most everything in this hotel restaurant is well-appointed, from the luxe linens to the cavalcade of flatware for each course. – – The Food – While not as experimental as his predecessor, Chef Peter Rudolph's cuisine exhibits the refined techniques and savoir-faire people come to expect from this…

Way over priced and portions too small ...
by foodcritic747
I give it 3/5 stars because of the portion size and price.
I went to Campton because of the reviews on this site.
I ordered a suckling pig entree a soup and a desert.
The suckling pig entree was TINY !!!
At first i thought it was a sample apettizer on the house or something like that.
The suckling pig entree itself was not that great actually - what little there was. My wife had some poularde entree. That too was rediculously small.
The desert was actually the best part of the meal - it was good.
The wine was also good.
The final bill for 2 was $220 (includng tax + tip).
That was a record for me !!
Never had I paid so much for a meal and recieved so little food !!
I was actually hungry after that meal and had to down a protien shake later.
Even Kate Moss would starve on that diet !!
So to summarize,
* Desert was great
* Entree portion was rediculously small
* Wine was good
* $75 for a 3 course meal per person is too exepensive for what you get.
The date of this review is 31 August 2007 in case it doesn't say.
- Pros: Great deserts, great wine, great service
- Cons: Insane prices, microscopic portions

WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!
by gnhoratio
A week after eating here, we're still talking about it. A 3.5 hour meal where we felt like royalty. They don't miss a step. Quietly, discretely, like high class hotel dining used to be. SUPERB food that you could NEVER make at home. Double oyster soup? I'll have another bowl, please. Guinea hen so tender you can cut it with a fork? Yes, please. No room for dessert? You best find it, because they will NOT let you leave without trying something. We spent more than we did at any two restaurants combined, and it was worth it. GO
- Pros: WINE WINE WINE SERVICE SERVICE SERVICE

Good food and good service!
by bjk624
The service was good and so was the food. The portion sizes are on the smaller side so I would recommend either 4 courses or the tasting menu. Dessert was outstanding--if you like chocolate, order the Soft Chocolate Savarin. You won't be sorry!
