• Fusion / Eclectic • Downtown
Booked 61 times today
We know the word "fusion" has been wielded about to justify everything from Hula Burgers to Mexican lasagna. But the East-meets-South brand of fusion happening at Poor Calvin's? It's creative; it's innovative; and it's probably unlike anything you've tasted in the ATL. After working in kitchens around the world, Calvin Phan wanted to shake things up a little. And so, into the mac 'n cheese, the Thai spices went. Now, Calvin's giving Southern staples, like sea bass and fried chicken, a decidedly creative Asian-inspired twist (and a nip of spice, too). He has created innovative dishes, approached in much the same way, leave the hands of Calvin Phan day in and day out. His dedication and attention to detail are evident in each dish and dessert. You won't be disappointed.*Last seating 1 hour before close*

Upon entry, an upscale coffee shop takes your gaze. During the day, the cafe intriguingly offers unique flavors such as sea salt lavender and rosemary sage, or you can opt for a classic vanilla or caramel addition to your joe if you fancy.

Once you get settled, indulge in our savory light bites and carefully hand-crafted cocktail menu...and if you're lucky, maybe even the sounds of a DJ spinning some of your favorite hits.

    My experience was great. I had the feat of the 7 fish menu. The food was exquisite, my server was knowledgeable, attentive and professional. The ambiance and the decor is very cozy, romantic but modern. What I could criticize is the wait between the course went a lil over the reasonable time considering that the restaurant was not crowded. The ladies room decor did not meet my expectations considering the restaurant standard and price. Overall, I would rate it a 8.5/10

    Overall a great experience. The server was amazing. The bread is to die for. The oysters were delicious. The peel /eat shrimp appetizer was great. The octopus appetizer was great. We also had the she crab soup, the mushroom side, the hushpuppy side. The entrees were the scallops dish and the flounder dish. Overall great. The wait time between dishes seemed very long. Not a place to go if you are on a tight schedule for event after dinner. Suggestion may be to order everything early on and let them glow it. Definitely will be back for oysters and appetizers.

    We were met and seated upon arrival. Our server was Rueben, and he was very informative on meals, appetizers and specials etc. He did a great job explaining tastes, food pairings. The food was phenomenal! Tastes and portions were perfect. We couldn’t have asked for better care and service for the entire meal. Highly recommend this location and we will be back!
