This is my go to spot in Atlanta. I've been coming here yearly and it never ceases to amaze me. Make sure to order the specials, they are always unique and over the top! I always request Louise as our waitress as she is always amazing, attentive, and knowledgeable about all their menu items. She truly makes the entire dining experience from start to finish something memorable!

I love the fact that Calvin brought our food out to us. He is very serious about his creations and Inwill continue to come back and recommend Poor Calvin's for this reason alone.

My wife and I shared the Seafood Spring Roll appetizer. She had the Lobster Fried Rice entree and I had the Chilean Seabass Sacchettoni. Everything was excellent. To top it off, Reuben, our waiter was attentive, answered all our questions and provided superb service.

Best restaurant in the entire world. Literally... Order the expresso martini with tequila repo.

Where do I even start!! Everything from the time I stepped into the restaurant was top tier. From the ambience to the service and that was before the food!! The food, OMG! So good. So much flavor and such an experience. Had the lamb chops, deviled eggs with caviar and crab, duck, lobster tails, and fried green tomatoes and EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING. The dessert sent us to the moon lol. Had two dessert. Peach cobbler empanadas and the pistachio pound cake. GET THEM! Can't wait to go back.

The calamari, the wontons, the sea bass, daily special (lamb) all amazing! TJ took great care of us! We had a reservation and called from the car to let them know that we would be a few minutes late (it was Dragon Con weekend so the traffic was crazy). We arrived 5 mins late and had to stand in a queue and waited 30+ mins for a table. Not cool that they gave away our table when I called ahead and to let them know that we were close.

The food is amazing. Even if you get there on time, there's a little wait. It is a small space, but besides that everything was great.
