Max Boonthanakit and Lijo George opened Camphor in 2022 in the Arts District and earned a Michelin star within a year. The menu marries French bistro structure with Indian spice; the dining room is about forty seats with a bar that seats another twelve.
Resy opens two weeks ahead. The 7-to-9pm seatings clear first; the bar takes walk-ins for the full menu most nights.
