    My first time at a Michelin restaurant and it was SUPER! The 7 course meal was pricey but worth every bite. The ambiance was not stuffy and stuck up. Service was kind and courteous. Each course came perfectly timed. Thank you for the lovely experience.

    My friends and I had such a great time at Calabash! The food was delicious - we shared the veggie curry (which comes with fragrant rice, a beautiful salad and plantains), a side of roti and the coconut dumplings with mango butter (to die for!). The spicy plantain margaritas were amazing - our server added a special touch for us, so that made us feel pretty special. The staff were all so kind. After we left, we went back for dancing later. They played great music and it was a wholesome, fun vibe. The place is highly secure. We felt very safe inside despite it being in the DTES area.
