Ordered the chef’s fall special for two and enjoyed every dish. Great service as we were one couple out of four on a snowy Monday evening. Ambience was great except the music was a little loud.

Delicious experience at Kama! Three of us shared the octopus, latkes, halloumi, mussels, shrimps, potato gems, duck pappardelle and gnocchi. Was definitely a LOT of food but we wanted to try a little bit of everything. Amazing food, great service, and really cool vibe inside. Highly recommend Kama - will definitely be coming back!
