Reviews
Our server, a quiet young lady, took our drink order after a delay. She was unemotional and hard to hear, though she kindly let me sample the passion fruit tea, which was tasty. Drinks arrived after another 5-10 minutes, delivered by a different server— quiet, with minimal engagement, not checking if we needed anything.
With two babies under the age of two with us, I grew increasingly disappointed with the service.
After another 10-minute wait, Pearle arrived to take our order and transformed the experience with her sunshine-like demeanor. She single-handedly salvaged the visit, as the first 35-40 minutes had me vowing never to return.
The food, however, was a highlight—fresh and delicious. The Calico Grub burst with flavors, enhanced by peppers.
The passion fruit iced tea and toffee Irish cream boozy sipper were exceptional, as were the Calico Clubhouse with chips and the kids’ ham and cheese croissant. The cinnamon rolls (which I’ll try next time) looked irresistible.
The bill felt steep—$14 for a side of bacon (4pc) seemed excessive. I’d love to rate the restaurant five stars only thanks to Pearle; the earlier service was lackluster. If I could, I’d give Pearle a hundred stars. The other staff could learn a lot from her training.
Though it wasn’t busy at first, it got crowded later. Every time a tray of food passed, the vibrant dishes caught my eye, tempting me to give this place another chance.
This is the last time I assume reasonable prices based on blind faith – they don’t bother putting prices on their pastry case. It’s a weirdo pricing breakdown where you see the base croissant price of $4 and then an additional $3 or more for the topping. Almost doubling the price for some slivered almonds and powdered sugar is a bold choice and not one we would have agreed to had we known up front. Just post the prices. This isn’t a lobster restaurant.
If we had known that pastries and coffee would be almost $40 at that quality we would’ve gone elsewhere.
The point of sale transaction was also bizarre because the gal who took our order turned around and started making it, and then somebody else took her place halfway through so we had to go through the order several times.
I don’t understand the 4 1/2 stars for this place and I don’t understand how a place that seems to be pretty well established has such a chaotic front end.
The customer service of the wait staff was great. The food was very good. If you want cinnamon rolls this is the place.
We would recommend this place with the caveat the you may have to deal with the unfriendly hostess.
