The food that my wife and I ordered was subpar.
AMAZING FOOD. Best restaurant in Atlanta. Highly recommend.
Calvin’s flavors are soooo amazing! We enjoyed every bite!
Poor Calvin's gives a great vibe and the staff is extremely nice and accommodating. The entrée portions are massive. WILL NEED A TO GO BOX. Great food.
You must go here. It was an experience like no other.
My all time favorite restaurant. I let Louise-my server pick my meal and just told her to surprise me! From the drink, appetizers and my entree, I was throughly pleased.
Excellent!
Delicious flavors and well prepared dishes. We tried several different offerings from the menu and everything was great!
Our server Ashley was outstanding. One of the best we’ve had. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was really nice. We enjoyed ourselves.
First time visiting and what a great experience! I was in town for the Atlanta wholesale market and my team suggested Poor Calvins. Everything from the ambiance and service to the food were spot on.
To top it off, they comp’d our uber back to the hotel.
Will definitely be back.
Amazing food. Chef Calvin is indeed a culinary artist!
Great food, great service and great environment!! This ia an establishment that provides a delightful experience with Asian influences dishes.
Nice people! Courteous waiter! A more compact,smaller location than I imagined, however great things come in small packages!
I don't like pulling shells out of my food. Also they ran out of certain desserts and nobody showed us a dessert tray. The food otherwise was okay - but a lot pricey.
Shrimp and Grits were amazing
Amazing place nice decor and great food plus they have valet.
Awesome! A great place for romance and girl’s night out.
Food and service was beyond expectation!! What a great find.
The food as always was outstanding. Would highly recommend trying the Agedashi Tofu as an appetizer. It was fantastic, the bits of lobster with it really set it apart. I tried the Siam Duck & Shrimp. The duck was perhaps the best I have ever had, with the curry really adding a different twist to the overall dish.
Service was great, a little slow at start especially given the restaurant wasn’t all that busy. But it improved throughout the meal.
Great hostess and server, made my birthday amazing
Definitely a winner hasn’t disappointed yet, I’m a 4 time repeat offender here!
This is our favorite restaurant in Atlanta - we go at least once every time we are in town. The food and cocktails are fabulous - but what makes the experience OVER THE TOP is the service! Raven the hostess is charming and Louise was our waitress - we have NEVER - at any restaurant- had such a knowledgeable, perfectly attentive and wonderful person wait on us! We will request her every time we go back! And then there’s James - not enough can be said about how enjoyable he makes the whole experience! Funny, attentive and just PERFECT! The entire evening is always superb!!!!!!
Awesome! They even paid for our Uber home! Such. Fun energetic place and the food was to die for!! New favorite spot!
Always a “Sure Thing” dining here. Calvin was cooking on this particular night. Our waiter, Justin, was right on time with everything. The ambiance is cool and the food is phenomenal. The signature Lobster Fried Rice is not to be missed. I visit Atlanta 4 times a year for business and Poor Calvin’s is my first dinner out, every time.
Absolutely love the Lamb!! Our waiter was awesome, Tim!
Nothing short of an amazing experience!!! Food, service everything was perfect!!
Everything we ordered was good except for the veggie spring roll. I had to send it back. I could not exchange nor get it taken off of the check due to their "no refund/no exchange policy." I might go back. The grouper was good and the long Island was great.
Been several times now love it We will be going back
Celebrating my boyfriend’s birthday.
Awesome ~ service and food are always consistent and satisfying. The food presentation never lets me down. And Lowla (or Sha Na Na is thee best waitress)!!!
30th Birthday
The food was amazing. It was a different experience for me because of the spices they used. My only complaint was the breading on the chicken. It was kind of hard. But I just scrapped it off and ate the chicken. The chicken was moist and seasoned well.
Made reservations to celebrate my Boyfriend’s birthday. We were immediately greeted upon entering the restaurant. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Our waiter was well versed on the menu items and gave some awesome recommendations. The ambience was great . The food was deliciously delicious. My boyfriend ordered the lamb chops which he complimented were perfectly prepared. I had the Lobster fried rice which was amazing. They even bought out a nicely decorated dessert with a lit candle in celebration of my boyfriend’s birthday. I recommend Poor Calvin’s for any occasion.
Sha Na Nah was legendary, world-class level service. I'd put her up against ANY top server, anywhere!
Celebrated a Birthday
The food and staff are Magnificent. I shall return many times.
Omg this place is everything. The food , the drinks , and the staff were all nice.
Lowla is the best!
The food was outstanding! Our server Joy was super dope, efficient, friendly, and engaging. The ambience was cool. They were able to maintain social distancing, they took our temps everyone wore masks, which is super important with CV-19. The one thing I did not appreciate was when we arrived one of my party of four was parking their car and they would not seat us, causing us to wait an extra 15 minutes or so for a table (we did have reservations). I'm not tripping off that b/c the service and food made up for that. Everything was hot, fresh, and relatively fast.
First night in Atlanta!
