Kallisto - Ottawa, Ontario

This place is phenomenal! As soon as you walk in you are greeted by the friendly staff, tonight we had Barb as our waitress. There are so many delicious options to choose from. Tonight we started with the Spanakopita, as our main we had the Chicken Souvlaki dinner and for ... dessert the Baklava!! The entire time we didn’t have to ask for a thing our drinks were refilled and timing between our courses were great. Honestly I can’t tell you my favourite part, everything was amazing! The best food I have had in a very long time. This was our first time here we will definitely be coming back! Read more

Very tasty food me and my fiancée have been ordering here a lot recently as she is nine months pregnant and craves it. Everything is exceptional, my only feedback would be to change the potatoes, I don’t like them, there not bad I just find out of everything on the plate ... the potatoes could use an adjustment. Photo was from today, we asked for no potatoes! 10/10 Read more

I ordered a chicken breast and shrimp skewer plate and I can say this is some of the best food I've ever had. Chicken breast is massive and cooked to perfection, shrimp are also big a delicious. If you want REAL food, this is certainly a place to get it. I ... will be ordering again for sure! Read more

This place is reasonably priced, delicious (!), upscale, warm & inviting, and halal. Mary-Rose our server was incredible, very attentive and kind. The lamb wrap was very tasty and the shrimp souvlaki with rice has 2 skewers of the most delectable and divine shrimp. Appetizers are well portion sized so ... you’ll have room for food 😉 but not much room for dessert although they did offer a very attractive menu 😋 Definitely try the stuffed mushrooms! A little outside of town but totally worth it, large space, clean and everything was steaming hot! Definitely will revisit, and they have a beautiful private event room. Read more

Let me start by saying that I've been going to this place for a long while (as a local spot) so I finally decided to write something about it. This place never disappoints: great people, great service, and of course excellent food. The food is always fresh and delicious, ... seasoned perfectly and impeccable quality. We were there recently and I ordered the spread combo for sharing and the lamb souvlaki for myself. The spread combo comes with tzatziki, hummus and baba ghanouj with Kalamata olives and pita bread, all exquisite and tasty. The lamb souvlaki, grilled to perfection, starts with a (always) fresh salad followed by 2 skewers of lamb, roasted potatoes and veggies and rice. All so delicious and excellent quality. Its a cozy spot great for friends and family. The restaurant appears somewhat dated but it is under new management and they informed us many changes are coming to design and layout and more. They have a separate event room that can be reserved for any occasion, which we have used many times. They have always been extremely helpful with organization and are very generous with servings. Visit them at Kallisto.ca to reserve or order online, take it from me, you won't regret it. Read more
