Got you -- here's the updated short version: Restaurant Review: Callie Callie has a clean, welcoming atmosphere and excellent service. The Mediterranean-inspired dishes were good, though not outstanding . The dolma was dry and the lamb a bit

Really creative cuisine and really lovely aesthetic and just a perfect place for a fancy dinner! Tip 1: take a reservation before 8:15ish because we had an 8:45 reservation and they were out of the chicken that we really wanted and also the seasona
Becoming a favorite restaurant after 2 visits.
The food is all so good. The crispy carrots dish is pretty much a raw tangy salad. Doesn't look like much but we loved it and ordered it again when we came back. The lamb dolmas were a surprise. I didn't realize it was a lamb sausage ins
The service was amazing.
We had no less than 5-6 staff working our table!! All so professional & fun! The Lemon Drops I ordered (I'm very picky) were perfect! The food, was a nice change to many of the restaurants we go to. I had a beet salad, sword fish, my husband

I came to Callie with 3 other friends for the Infatuation deal with Callie! Overall, the flavors were unique and robust. My favorite dish was probably the Aleppo chicken. It was tender and so flavorful. The carrots were also surprisingly one of my fa

Maybe the best meal I've ever had in San Diego! Went on a Saturday night with my girlfriend - had dinner reservations at 8:15, showed up at 8:00, but weren't seated until 8:30. While we waited, they did ask us if we wanted any drinks but we

This is my second time dinning in at Callie and it both times have been amazing. The food is outstanding. I've really enjoyed just about everything I've ordered. Ive always had great service. In my opinion these are must orders Carrots D
Tasty middle eastern food in downtown San Diego.
Went for a Saturday dinner - had their chicken, ravioli, and babaganoush. Chicken and ravioli were on point - the dip was good also but don't compare to the other two. Also had a couple cocktails that were delicious. The service and the vibe

Definitely make a reservation! Even though it opens at 5pm, the seats start to fill up quick. We were able to get an early 5:15pm reservation or else we probably would have had to wait a bit. There is a parking garage that gets validated which is nic

Our meal here was stellar and the attentive service + atmosphere was amazing. Highlights were Aleppo Chicken (must try), and the items on the seasonal menu! I loved the seasonal mushroom appetizer. Great for date night or an occasion!

The restaurant is nice and the staff were friendly, but during the ordering they overly recommend you to get more dishes. The pasta dishes were good, but the meat dishes and vegetables sides were not worth the high cost. With the very high cost for t

Anyone who gives this place a one-star review is an idiot or a pretentious a**hole. Everything was amazing: the food, the staff, the drinks, the timing, the free parking lot. Seriously one of the best meals I've ever had.

I highly recommend using the underground parking garage to avoid the angry vagrants on each corner. Also, they recommend you order multiple dishes per person because their portions are tiny. Just make sure you have a high limit credit card.

Really don't even write yelp reviews but I wanted the staff to know how much they made my birthday. Food and drinks were phenomenal. Every course was cherished, but god damn that toro toast. The staff really made it this time. Derrick is hands

TLDR: good luck getting a Michelin star with that attitude and food all while putting a mandatory 25% tip. I was so excited to try Callie, a relatively new and rising restaurant in the SD restaurant scene. First of all, the parking is SO confusin
Just sat at the bar before a Padres game but WOW.
Not inly are the cocktails amazing but the selection of tequilas and mezcals is top shelf too. Bartenders are very knowledgeable and can custom make drinks. Our drinks were the Tulum with Love, tad sweet for me but good, and the Kook Juice we which t

We were in the city for the night looking for a place to celebrate and this ended up fitting the bill pretty well. The staff were so so friendly and really worked to make it a special nice and the meal ended up being pretty good, not spectacular but
The food was beautifully delicious.
It's looks good and tastes even better. The service was fast and the ambiance very cozy.
Get the chicken.
Seriously. Just order it. Don't veer from it. Just get the chicken. Service was A+ both from the server and the server assistant whom had a trainee on her hip. Good job. Yall get paid well and that reflects on your ability to work well. It

All the flavors were thoughtfully curated and matched for a perfect gastronomic experience. I had to try the clarified margarita, which was its own fun experience. We enjoyed the crispy focaccia with whipped ricotta, patatas bravas, Aleppo chicken, a

My friend came to visit from SF and since Callie is just a short walk from my apartment, we decided to check it out. We went for the Mediterranean Feast and it was such a great choice -- every dish came out full of flavor and felt really thoughtful.
Expensive Restaurant
It is a fairly expensive restaurant not in terms of price but the portion sizes. The portion sizes are small even though the menu encourages family style dining. For four of us the total came to $300 without any drinks. The food was good. Also the ki
A super cool Mediterranean restaurant.
Except for the parking garage difficulties, we loved it all!! Super modern, hipster vibe and highly creative and delicious Mediterrean menu. From the extraordinary Egyptian carrots to the amazing caccio de pepe (they did it for us gluten free, ya
Surprised by the flavors! Maybe the best flavors in San Diego!
We went for dinner, and we were absolutely surprised by all the taste and flavors of all plates. Specially the legumes, the plate look simple, but it is absolutely delicious! Try everything you can, there is no mistake!
Rip off policies and shrink-flation at Callie
I have been to Callie 5 times and will not be coming back because of rip-off policies and "shrink-flation". I booked a reservation over the phone for Christmas Eve and was not informed that the menu was pre-fixe menu. The hostesses who sa
Better with more than 2 people so you can try several plates
My sweet friends took me out to my first time in Callie for my birthday and I had a great experience. Now I know why people rave about this restaurant so much! When we arrived, there was a birthday card for me on the table which was a nice touch. Don
High marks well-deserved
Expensive? Yup Some very small portions? Also yup Worth it? Most definitely! Fabulous pan-Mediterranean cuisine beautifully presented and flavorful. Worth the journey to San Diego’s East Village for one dish alone: the Aleppo chicken. The best ever
A really special meal!
Hard to imagine how anyone would have anything bad to say about this place based on our experience tonight! We had called because they were fully booked for this evening…a good sign…and were told we could come and land bar seating. We did, and it
Overall, the ambience inside the restaurant is excellent.
Service was fine. I liked that they had a whole array of non-alcoholic drinks to choose from. We chose not to have the feast. The entree they provided in the feast was chicken yesterday and we were more interested in trying the octopus and dolmas.
Big beautiful space.
The bar was especially gorgeously built and it. We git the duck and the eggplant caviar and it was very good. Great service.

The Aleppo Chicken was great! Meat was tender and crispy outside, the flavor was unique and taste awesome. Service was great!
Loved the decor.
Felt super trendy and chic. Service was attentive and friendly. Food was so so so good. Best meal we had in San Diego. Almost everything was 5/5! Hummus 4/5 but we had to have the garlic and sauce they normally include on the side since it wasn't v
This place is amazing.
Just try it. Food is incredible. Service is organized and attentive. Plus it's a lovely restaurant. Can't wait to go back!
We did the prix-fixe.
Was very impressed with the attention to detail and unique flavor combinations. Service was superb as well. It was a lot of food so you don't go home hungry.
Love their season special - garlic prawns with bread.
I've gone back just for this dish.

Pleasantly surprised to find this GEM! Remarkable food with five star care taken with each ingredient and method. Delicious flavor and five star service. Chicken was amazing so were the apps. Well worth a visit.
Great food and menu options.

Middle East meets America at its best
Superb dining with dishes made to share. Extremely well cooked and meat so tender that it melts. This goes for the chicken (a must), the duck breast and the lamb chops (my rival favorite). Few, but good wines by the glass and an extensive wine list i
Definitely worth the price
everything was fantastic, from the food to the location to the service. One of the best dining experiences I have ever had. It was expensive, but some time you get what you pay for. The staff all seemed to be having a good time, so hopefully that mea

What an enjoyable night out. We arrived at our reservation time, were warmly welcomed and seated promptly. Started with a non-alcoholic Negroni which was refreshing. We asked to share the drink and they split the drink into two for us. Sampled the h

There has been a lot of buzz about Callie, so I finally had to check it out. It was quite good but I wouldn't call it incredible, and I'm going to tell you why. I would honestly give it 3 1/2 stars, but Yelp does not allow halves so I rounded up- a
Great food, but just an overall rip-off
First, the food was really good here, so don't get me wrong. The issue is just the portion sizes. Shareable family style means that it is enough to share, at least I thought so. Our table of 4 was having to take one little portion of an entree pla

First, the food was really good here, so don't get me wrong.
The issue is just the portion sizes. Shareable family style means that it is enough to share, at least I thought so. Our table of 4 was having to take one little portion of an entree plate that came out and divide it up. It's really embarassing ho
Connect with users posting reservations for Callie San Diego
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Callie San Diego. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Callie San Diego at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Callie San Diego page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Callie San Diego to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Callie San Diego!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
