   Delightful service and warmth of everyone we encountered the moment we walked in the door. Felt like dining with family. Food was superb. We wanted seconds and thirds. So much flavor and thoughtfulness went into pairings and preparation.

   Pro Dumplings are outstanding Ashley — top notch server Con Lobster fried rice - $46 - way overpriced the only visible lobster was a small tail placed on top of dry overly seasoned rice Bok choy side - 4 stalks ? Bubbly $14 (bottle wholesale $18 ) nb for a quieter table — dine away from the bar

    Poor Calvin’s is my favorite restaurant in Atlanta. I’ve been traveling out of state for many years just to visit this restaurant and it’s always perfect - it’s definitely worth the 2 hour drive! The staff is so welcoming and friendly - and the food is always so good. I’ve celebrated my birthday here and brought my family along - it was great! I also enjoy their brunch menu (they now have a brunch happy hour from 3-4 and it’s amazing!!! - I hope this sticks around) The crab meat grilled cheese and rum punch is top tier! Today, I had my usual crabmeat grilled cheese and lobster wontons (as an appetizer) - and to my surprise, they swapped out the fries for asparagus on the crabmeat dish. This was not a good surprise, unfortunately. I definitely miss the fries and aioli drizzled over them and the sandwich. Today, it was like opening a box of donuts and seeing it filled with broccoli instead of the donuts you wanted :( I sure hope they consider bringing back the fries and aioli - those two items transform the sandwich and experience :) But like I said, this is an amazing restaurant with great staff and I don’t regret my visit today! It was still well worth it.
