👍👍 Stopped by for a few light bites in the evening, while walking the Giralda Ave strip (a lovely place). Definitely ask to try the fried branzino, it wasn't on the menu at the time and was recommended by the staff. The fish was freshly made snd fried to perfection. The Spanakopita was also amazing and... People often mention good,

    Stopped by for a few light bites in the evening, while walking the Giralda Ave strip (a lovely place). Definitely ask to try the fried branzino, it wasn't on the menu at the time and was recommended by the staff. The fish was freshly made snd fried to perfection. The Spanakopita was also amazing and freshly baked, it was also a generous portion. Pricing was reasonable for the area considering most dishes were seafood based. Thank you Chef Thomas and your staff for the wonderful service and spot on dish recommendations!

    What a welcoming place. Located on a pedestrian street and surrounded by many restaurants and shops, this place transport you to the many little alleys and food packed streets in Greece. We really enjoyed our lunch on the terrace. The service was top notch. Alexander took great care of us and his suggestions were spot on. Our food came hot and well presented. All the dishes we tried were delicious. The moussaka, the lamb chops and the Greek salad were very good. The mezze trio paired with the house wine was also fantastic. The cherry on the cake was the Greek yogurt desert! We will come back to try other dishes.

    Great experience!!! Good environment, good music in the street (that day, there was a party in the street and we had dinner outside the restaurant) but everything was amazing!

    We ordered the fresh red snapper family meal for the 7 of us, plus 2 appetizers. Fish was fresh & cooked perfectly.

    The place is good to spend time with friends, a bottle wine and Greek appetizers to share and that’s it! The food isn’t great but is fine. Don’t order the sea food pasta, is really bad, the flavors are basic (caned tomato sauce ), the squid over cooked(too chewy), the same with the clams, 2 jumbo shrimps and 30 DOLLARS to pay. Not worth it.

    I've been to Calista a fair few times and it never disappoints! The restaurant itself makes you feel like you have been transported from Coral Gables to Greece! The food is always delicious and authentically Greek and the service on all my experiences has been wonderful. I'd definitely recommend this place for lunch – especially the greek salad with grilled chicken, or the evening for dinner.

    Great place! Interior looks so pretty, great service, they even asked if we like the music otherwise they could change it for us. The patio was empty that’s why I guess. Greek salad was really good. My husband was really impressed with chicken kebob plate, but unfortunately calamari was not good at all, that’s why 4 stars. I always order calamari since it’s one of my favourites, and this particular dish here was chewy, and didn’t taste good. We told the server but he didn’t offer to take it off the bill. We will come back for the salad and chicken kebob for sure.
