I recently had a really disappointing experience at that restaurant. Right from the start, the service was awful. The staff seemed uninterested and uncaring, making me wonder if they even cared about their customers. It took an incredibly long time for anyone to take our...orders, serve our food and refill of water during the day To make things worse, the manager's behavior was just plain rude. Instead of addressing our concerns, the manager was shockingly disrespectful. It felt like they enjoyed putting us down. Their lack of professionalism was really disheartening and left a lasting bad impression. The wait for our food was painfully long. Finally, when the food arrived, it was average at best. The taste was bland, and the presentation was basic for a restaurant of this standards. It was obvious that they didn't put much care or attention into the food quality. This whole experience has made me decide to never go back to that restaurant. The terrible service, rude manager, and agonizing wait for mediocre food have convinced me to warn others to stay away. Going out for a meal should be enjoyable, but unfortunately, this restaurant failed miserably at providing even the most basic level of customer satisfaction.More

We came upon Calvi when the restaurant we hoped to attend was closed. A great find. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful with arrange of gluten free options. I had the steak which was superb and my husband had Atlantic cod which was equally...great. Not cheap but I would recommendMore

My husband invited me at Calvi Bistro for Valentine supper. Upon arrival, I was a little apprehensive as the decor was somewhat unexpected....an impressive fuxsia colour lit dome ceiling in a rather cold environment...however it was the food and the service that I was really...impressed by! The Icelandic halibut was served on a wonderful bed of quinoa risotto, aged balsamic sauce and olive tapanade. Woww! It was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. One of the best dishes I had in along time. Bravo to the chef!! We will definitely return soon. LinaMore

Our family had a private room. Service was a little slow, but understandable given the size of our group. Food was good. But what offended me as that while I was in the ladies room, 2 male staff members came in to change the paper...towels. Nobody knocked or said "hey anyone in there?", nothing. I came out of the stall and they completely ignored me, like it was perfectly okay for 2 men to be in the ladies room. When I mentioned it to the hostess, she acted surprised, walked toward the ladies room, but then when I was going up the stairs back to the dining room, saw that she walked right back to her post, having done nothing about the men in the ladies room. Truly was not impressed.More

We are sorry about this situation. The hostess did mention it to the manager and it was dealt with.

We hosted our family Christmas dinner at Calvi. We has a private room to accommodate 20 people. The quality of the meal was excellent and the service was friendly and flawless. All our family were delighted with the experience. We will do this again.

We had a private room for 13 people. The service was excellent. Never had the feeling we were being pushed or waited for our food. The food was very good and everybody was very satisfied. Having a private room was great since we had 2...young kids (5 & 3) in the group.More
