    Rang in 2025 here with a group of friends! I thought Cala did a great job capping the ticket sales-- it wasn't too crowded and I never had to wait long to order a drink. They nailed the ambience, it was an exciting and inviting place to spend the evening! We paid the $55 fee per person for our "reservation," and with it we were supposed to receive a complimentary glass of champagne at midnight to toast with as well as a dessert. I did not receive either one of those items. They also turned on the lights inside before closing which was a bit of a jump scare. Overall, we had a positive experience and would do it again!

    We opted for thecearly seating 6:30pm. Nice room, menu, but a very chaotic and loud dining room. The sound system blasted rhythmic music, making talking at tabe difficult. Waitstaff could not hear customer orders easily. Our table received the wrong food (for a different table) twice. On a positive note, staff was friendly in spite of the chaos, and everyone made an effort to be in a celebratory mood - staff all dressed in white. Food was all well prepared and very good. I like this restaurant on a normal night and will return.

    I’m not one to ever write reviews especially because Cala is one of my favorite restaurants, but the service was very disappointing this trip, waitress was slow and took forever to address us or take orders, didn’t refill water unless we tracked her down, nor did she ask if we ever wanted refills on our drinks. Vodka pasta was way spicier than usual and had about three small pieces of sausage even though it was an up charge. Overall very disappointing experience for a restaurant I like to frequent.

    Service was terrible. Front of house manager should be fired immediately. This place has so much potential but the customer experience is severely lacking.

    I booked a reservation here for my birthday, in hopes of good food, fun environment, and high end service. I’ve heard nothing but good things about this restaurant, and to be completely honest the food was extremely mid. I ordered the vodka pasta and the noodles were undercooked and hard, on top of that I got around 12 noodles in total on my plate that cost 30$… I have had way better food for half the price. Not only was the food mid but the drinks were even worse. Half way into dinner, there was a loud commotion and a fight broke out right behind our table. Overall for the amount of money spent on this entire dinner it was one of the worst experiences I’ve had in awhile.

    Everything was phenomenal at Cala! We sat at the bar and the service and food were both perfect. My mom and I split the Flaming Saganaki, Bucatini Wagyu Bolognese and the Moroccan Chicken. Presentation was beautiful.
