Atmosphere is wonderful - has the look and vibe of something I'd expect to find in some of the upper middle class eatery/shopping districts of Dallas, Fort Worth, Memphis, etc. ('Whoever designed your interior did a fantastic job. My only concern: you might have overshot your local target market a bit.) The menu offers plenty of delicious options at reasonable prices for the local economy. Service is fast - but not rushed, knowledgeable, very friendly, and attentive. Our waitress was great. If Camden's overall attitude toward making itself into a truly great, prosperous, family-oriented place to live with plenty to do and a good standard of living was as good as What's Cooking's is toward its patron and how it conducts business, Camden would be on its way into the stratosphere. I'm a former marketing professor (Colo State U) and consultant to many small businesses and other organizations. I am extremely impressed with this gem of a restaurant! What's Cooking definitely has the right recipe for Camden's as well as its own success. We will eat at WC frequently! - J. Cook

This place is very good!! I'll admit my expectations were low (considering i'm from los angeles & this place is in the middle of nowhere to me) and i was very happy to find it was clean and delicious! I ordered the chicken jack sandwich with fries (which i definitely recommend cuz bacon) and it was a generous portion and the chicken was cooked perfectly and not dry! The drinks are also big! The menu has a wide range of mexican..tex-mex? food. I don't really eat that so i cant speak to it except to say i would recommend trying it if you do. My mom had the quesadillas & she said they were very tasty. Everything comes hot. Chris, our waiter, was extremely nice & efficient. The bathrooms are good too, and prices are reasonable. I cant say if i'd come back (since it's a tad bit far from california) but if i found myself here again i would be happy!
