Appetizers like the poppers and momos are outstanding, and the sticky ribs are tender and flavorful, reminiscent of home-cooked ribs. While some reviews mention inconsistent service, the food consistently receives high praise for its flavor and tenderness. The restaurant also offers nice touches, such as a complimentary birthday dessert. Though not a traditional Indian restaurant, CaliChilli provides a flavorful experience with dishes like butter chicken pot pie, tandoori seabass, and chicken tikka that appeal to a variety of taste buds. Its inviting environment and delicious dishes make it a popular spot for those seeking a flavorful and enjoyable meal. Recent reviews highlight that the food is always delicious, with standout dishes like lamb biryani and lamb chops. Guests enjoy the beautifully presented lamb biryani and the excellent lamb chops, with some noting the butter chicken clay pot as extraordinary. The ambiance, especially in the enclosed alcove, allows for a quiet and pleasant dining experience, complemented by attentive service. However, some dishes like the short rib plate may vary in portion size and quality, which can be disappointing. Overall, CaliChilli remains a favorite for flavorful dishes and a welcoming atmosphere.
