Review Summary

Cavally's presents a mixed reputation characterized by high praise for its refined food, flavorful menu, and attentive service during dining hours, contrasted by significant dissatisfaction regarding its nightlife operations. While many diners enjoy the modern atmosphere, music, and welcoming staff, visitors during peak evening hours frequently report issues with disorganized door management, unprofessional security, and poor service at the bar. Although the establishment is commended for its daytime hospitality and management efforts to resolve minor issues, the chaotic environment and negative experiences with event-related staff suggest a sharp divide between the restaurant's quality of service and its late-night operations.

The place turns into a club during the night. While the ambiance & music were decent, the whole experience was ruined by the bartender automatically charging 20% tips before passing the terminal to me to pay. At first I didn't realise since the screen that she showed me was the total amount & it's only after I tapped my card that I saw the break down of the cost+tips. Same thing happened to a friend of mine too, so it wasn't an isolated incident. I would not recommend going there due to the malpractice of the staff, but if you are there, be careful & pay attention at the bar before paying. If the owner is reading this, know that your bartender is ripping customers off & this will drive business away.

This review is really about Cavally's night life & the service of the employees there on a Friday or Saturday night. This is not about the daytime restaurant, but I just had to leave a review about the night life for any visitors or out-of-towners.

I was so disappointed when I got to this place as it was my first & last time. You will NEVER catch me there again ever not even to dine even if there's an event. It's embarrassing because this place is right on Crescent which to me puts it on a pedestal. After my experience though, this place should've been located in a back alley somewhere hidden.

The lineup to get into this place is ridiculous, which has me questioning is in there too small to hold the number people waiting in the line up. It was between 1:30 & 2am. Clearly they hire popular people in the city to come & host to bring more exposure to the clubs, sure no problem. Just do a better job at managing the doors & the crowds.

The bouncers refused to let people in. Pressuring people to buy bottles for ridiculous prices to get in (with this economy almost all clubs are doing this). Even so, our friends did buy bottles & it still wasn't recognized because the other half of the group was not welcomed in. Numerous police are parked right in front because there's a huge crowd of people of color trying to get it so they see a threat.

The people waiting were frustrated & the night was almost over. There was favouritism & the door, because the lines never moved (the regular line nor the'VIP' line). It was chaos & havoc. People were pushing & almost fighting to get in; not demure at all. It was all a big fuss for nothing, really. I ended up leaving & going to another more popular club but it had better security & everyone working in front was uniform, professional, demure & respectful.

The management staff needs to speak to the night life crew & do extremely better especially when hiring popular people to bring business to your club. You want to make money but the reputation is being ruined for those little dollars. I was embarrassed for Cavally's as we had friends visiting from out of town wanting to spend there. I won't recommend to any of my friends. Hope this helps you to do a bit better.
