THE FOOD IS DELICIOUS! The service/bartenders/mangers/owner all so nice and worked really hard during a super busy time. We went at 5:30 on a Sunday and it was PACKED. The only con was that we sat at the bar and people hovered the entire time we were there (we are a couple and it would’ve been nice to enjoy our meal without all the people ordering drinks over our shoulders). Other than that- best meal in ATL.

First of all, the name POOR CALVIN'S, you CAN NOT be poor and eat here. We spent $200 for 2 people. We arrived without reservations and were seated immediately as long as we left by 730pm. That was fine with us. The waiters were attentive, helpful and knowledgeable of the food selections. 10/10 Lobster Fried Rice 🦞 9/10 Lobster Pad Thai- the Lobster was almost raw. 10/10 Crab Won Ton 10/10 Streamed Crab Dumplings 10/10 Ice Tea 5/10 Lobster MacNCheese Overall, we would come everyday 🌟 🌟, this was the best restaurant in Atlanta that we had visited. The food was superb 👌🏾 😋. Everything made our taste buds excited and please. Everything was Great. Cons: Parking could be challenging

Divine! Met some colleagues here while in town for a trade show and was blown away by both the food and the service. Truly one of the best meals of my life. I can personally vouch for the Manhattan (best I’ve ever tasted), the Thai-inspired cocktail, the vegan fresh rolls, and the vegan curry. The chunks of vegan meat were expertly cooked. Wish this place was closer to home because I’d be a regular for sure.

Guys this place is a must try!!! I literally had an outer body experience eating the food it was so amazing. And let me tell you...I am not easily impressed with food these days. It was so good that I had the lamb chops that came with mashed potatoes and asparagus. Then I also got the lobster fried rice to go. I convinced myself it was for the kids but who are we fooling 😅. I had lychee martini for drinks and it was delicious. I only regret not getting a dessert. Enjoy!

Is this a very dressy or casual dress place?

Rae Allyn | Dec 18, 2018

Its absolutely not a dressy place. However the food is very well presented and you would not be out of place if you felt like dressing up. From jeans to a ball gown, come as you please. That a the beauty of city dining says this longtime transplant from New York.
