Callie is a popular restaurant that offers a delightful dining experience with a young hipster vibe. The tasting menu, a 5-course delight with delectable desserts, is a fantastic choice, showcasing fresh ingredients and exceptional flavors. A standout dish is the crunchy Egyptian carrots, tossed in an orange-habanero dressing and served on a bed of creamy cashew dukkah, which adds a wonderful crunch and spice. The menu also features an array of tempting options, including the divine hummus and pita, the perfectly prepared lamb chops that are seasoned perfectly and cooked to tender, juicy perfection, and the comforting pappardelle with duck sausage ragu. Guests can enjoy the grilled lamb and the watermelon, described as out of this world, which pairs well with the protein dishes. The restaurant encourages a family-style dining experience, allowing guests to sample a variety of dishes. With clear markings for gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan options, Callie caters to diverse dietary needs. The ambiance and service enhance the dining experience, with excellent and attentive staff guiding guests through the menu. The drinks are well balanced and thoughtfully tested, with a particularly loved cocktail that has the perfect sweetness and a noticeable alcohol flavor. For wine lovers, the Som offers great pairing suggestions. Additionally, Callie provides free underground parking, making it a convenient choice for diners. Guests often enjoy sharing appetizers like hummus, baba gannosh, carrots, and broccolini, and finish with desserts such as the skillet cookie with fig ice cream or the Turkish rice pudding, which is an unbelievable combination topped with caramelized pistachios. Overall, Callie offers a creative menu in a lovely atmosphere suitable for a special dinner or date night.
