What People Are Saying About Chameau Restaurant

The Editor

Randi Schmelzer

Citysearch

Tucked among the bakeries and shops of Fairfax, the copper facade of this windowless eatery might not look like much from the outside, but inside it's a colorful (although suprisingly tiny) space with an geometrically designed dining room and blue-hued retro coffee shop-style bar. Mediterranean-leaning starters include chilled watermelon-cucumber salad, olive and eggplant tapanades while ntrees range from olive-crusted baked halibut and roasted lamb to vegetarian-friendly options and the signature couscous tangines, covered plates steaming with fresh meats or seafood and couscous. House-made…

Morrocan Heaven

by CarlosG

We want them back in Silverlake! This is an excellent restaurant. Fine food, gorgeous decor. We have been going there for years fearful that the quality would eventually drop, but it has not. Au contraire.

  • Pros: Great Food
  • Cons: Odd neighborhood
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Nothing like it

by Jbatchelor

First, I'd like to talk about some of these awful reviews that are completely ridiculous. Not original? Excuse me, if this restaurant is not original then I don't know what is. Now the guy who felt insignificant in Chameau. Well hate to break it to you, but you are.

Now for MY review. The chef is amazing in the kitchen. The lamb, couscous, diverse wines, preserved lemon dip, should I go on? There should be a Chameau in every city.

  • Pros: Food, Service, Atmosphere
  • Cons: None
1 Star Rating: Poor

Avoid Kelly

by MrsOBrien

Kelly Klemovich is the older lady who does all the catering for movie sets and things like that for Chameau. The food is alright, however once it gets to location it is usually not very hot anymore. My biggest complaint about this is how inappropriate Kelly is with the clients. She is very ditsy, always late(which probably explains the cold food), and she kisses all the guys and jumps on them and hangs all over them whenever she sees them. She calls them hunny and sweetie and all kinds of pet names, and acts like they have a relationship outside of work. She is married, however it is to a gay man, and for tax reasons only, so shes like a cougar on the prowl. I have never been so disgusted by someone's total lack of professional etiquette, she must not have any formal business training of any kind, because because those of us who have know that one of the first things they teach is how to behave with customers and such. So if you like being harassed in a bad way at work when all you are trying to do is feed your crew, then shes the one for you. This comment is not made to be nasty, it's more like constructive criticism for her to learn from.

  • Pros: You get fed
  • Cons: Kelly is completely inappropriate for a business situation
