Superbe nourriture & cocktails dans une atmosphère détendue, ce qui est parfait pour moi. Tout est bon ici mais je recommande vraiment les duos de bokits. Ils sont aussi impressionnant avec leurs sauces qui rajoute du goût extra à leur tapas déjà bien bons.

J'ai bien aimé. J'y retourne bientôt c'est sûr.

La nourriture était excellente, j'ai beaucoup aimé! C'était un "remix" de plusieurs plats caribéens classiques. J'ai aimé les rouleaux frits de poulets & les drinks étaient très bons aussi, je recommande le "Coach Dan"!

Really nice restaurant with delicious food & great service. The cocktail menu alone is worth the detour with so many options & twists on classics to give it a tropical feel. The food was really good, like an elevated fusion caribbean comfort food. Our server Stevie was super nice & very accommodating. We were a group of 9 & he kind of made us a taste all menu. Very affordable feast :) Definitely recommend!

Délicieux ! Un vrai coup de coeur à 5 min de chez moi, je suis ravie ! J'ai testé le rougail saucisses en plat à emporter & c'etait une explosion de saveurs. Je recommande vivement à tous, le personnel est super sympa & le décor très soigné, on se sens bien. Je vais y retourner c'est certain !

The food is AMAZING. I highly recommend to go at Kalysta. We ordered 6-7 tapas, including Jerk chicken, griot, salad, etc. Everything was delicious. Cocktails are really good too. Please go visit that restaurant ASAP, it's worth it !
