    Food was excellent, the fish plates were great, service was fantastic. Will return soon, only problem is they are closed on Sundays, which I work in the Bay Area and Sunday is really the only day I have the time to enjoy Modesto.

    Super friendly. We were quickly greeted and seated by the owner Damon. Wine selection is impressive. It continues to change over the years , always replacing a selection with a better one. We chose the whipped feta appetizer. Delicious and just the right amount for 4 people to share. I was so happy to see their lemon chicken orzo soup on the specials menus. Added that to a chicken pesto, apple, & Brie panini and my evening was perfect. Excellent food, excellent service, always a treat to visit Camp 4 in downtown Modesto.
