Restaurant Calvi in Laval

Arrival at 12 p.m. Entrance service at 1:40 p.m. I dont recommend.

An exceptional experience! The intimate and refined setting of the private lounge offers a warm and discreet atmosphere, ideal for a peaceful dinner. The service is impeccable, attentive without being intrusive, and the cuisine, a real treat for the senses, combines creativity and quality. To recommend without hesitation! Thank you Calvi

Beautiful, clean and welcoming place.

We were there for a dinner with work colleagues on a Tuesday lunchtime. The restaurant was almost full and we received exemplary service. I had the Wagyu beef tartare and it s definitely the best tartare I ve eaten so far. Im already dreaming of next time and also to try other dishes on the menu. I highly recommend this place, a good chic, comfortable place where you feel appreciated.

Disappointed. Chosen for our team Christmas party (4), we arrived at 11 a.m. to be able to leave at 12:45 p.m. for an activity. Unfortunately for us there were other Christmas parties in the private rooms on the same day and it seems that their satisfaction was more important than ours. So I dont know if its because we werent dressed to the same standard as the usual customers but the service was catastrophic. Example with a waitress who comes to see us and says You wont have any wine...? We barely had time to respond before she left with the glasses... I am convinced that if We had been 4 men in suits, she would never have dared to act like that! Then we each had a starter + main course. The dish was served to us at 12:30 p.m., an hour and a half after our arrival, even though I specified at 12:15 p.m. that we had to leave at 45 and that we therefore had to speed up a little. So we had to devour the dish in 15 minutes flat... for a weekday lunch its much too long... in short, an experience far from our expectations, especially for a bill of almost $400.

Good kitchen, possibilities to have more private spaces.

The food is delicious, perfect service the salmon was excellent, well seasoned, the salad on the other hand is not there, same thing for the tart, I didnt really like it, the fennel soup is delicious, the gnocchi with cheese blue and deeeelllliiicccious

Very nice restaurant, very good service and good food!

Very good French cuisine Discreet and smiling service

Great experience

Very amazing, food, service, professionel, clean and beautifull.worth it all the way, plus que wow, merciiiiii

Horrible overpriced food. Extremely uncomfortable banquettes, empty lobster tank in the corner, fake flowers everywhere. We paid close to $300. for a lunch for 2 people which was so bland and dry at best, highway robbery.

very beautiful decor impeccable services

dinner 15 - 11 - 2024. Excellent food - very good value for money - beautiful presentation. Excellent service. We enjoyed our experience.

Wow!! Just perfect!! We couldnt find a better way to mark my partners 65th and retirement!! The intimacy of the living room was appreciated by all the guests. Thanks to Katrina and her professionalism for the reservation and planning aspect for this success. The atmosphere, the food and what can I say about the service! Flawless! A big congratulations and thank you to the always smiling staff who were able to meet our needs. Thank you again, we had a great evening! I highly recommend!

Excellent support and very dedicated and welcoming staff for our group throughout the duration of our event... from booking until the end of the evening. Thank you so much! Dietary restrictions: One guests severe gluten allergy was taken very seriously and he was served an excellent meal.

Excellent food and service. Highly recommend and will be going back.

Very good meal. We love the atmosphere of this restaurant: comfortable chairs, we can hear each other talking, very good service and good food! What more could you ask for?

Very nice experience, very comfortable going to the wine cellar even during the first visit, they know how to respect our budget. All the staff are very courteous and smiling.

This restaurant deserves more than 4.1 Warm and attentive service. Tasty dishes and beautiful presentation. I can talk about $ (I was invited)

Nice selection of wines. Renewed menus with choices for everyone!

Much, much too expensive!

Very appetizing We were there for a friends wedding, it was just magical

It was a real treat, I easily give it an 8/10 plus it has private rooms Parking: There is really plenty of free parking in Centropolis.

Everything was just perfect! Every dish a delight! Impeccable service, warm and calm atmosphere. I recommend without any doubts! To try!

We received a very warm welcome. We ordered a sea bream me and my wife, the food was excellent. And I would like to congratulate our waitress Kassandra for her exceptional service, very smiling and dedicated to her work.

The burrata ravioli are divine

Warm place, beautiful wine cellar

Best espresso martini ever had. Service was amazing. Will be going back as the food was delicious. Food : 5/5

Very nice place

Osso buco is delicious and the service is impeccable. Beautiful atmosphere in the evening

Beautiful restaurant, the rooms are beautiful and the chairs are super comfortable But the dishes were a little salty in my opinion, otherwise the portions were generous. We booked a room and took a group service. The group enjoyed their meal and found the portions generous. However, for those who had cocktails, they didnt really like their cocktails. They mentioned that it didnt really taste like alcohol and that it didnt necessarily taste like it should. Parking: As the restaurant is located in Centropolis, at busy times such as Saturday dinner time, you have to go around in circles to find parking because the place is crowded.

Great place for romantic atmosphere, business and lovers. Food and service are high end quality. Food

we went to eat on a Monday evening me and my partner, it was almost 9 p.m., as the restaurant was almost empty they were going to close (which is understandable!) the boss still took us Generous portions, good flavors in the mouth, plenty choice of wine by the glass, very good value for money! I gave the atmosphere a 5 star rating despite the fact that we were alone in the restaurant because the decor is magnificent and it was perfect for a romantic evening. We took the equivalent of 3 courses and at no time did we feel pressured to leave. I recommend!! p.s. the squid was delicious, despite the width of the slices, not quite rubbery!!

Celebrating my 40th birthday at Calvi was an absolute delight, making it an evening to remember for a lifetime..at least the next 10 years until my wife organizes another surprise party. The ambiance was great, with good lighting creating the perfect backdrop for our festivities. As we settled into our seats, we were greeted by the friendly and attentive server, Marco, whose impeccable service elevated the entire dining experience. One aspect that truly stood out was the impeccable attention to detail from the entire staff. As speeches were given, the waiters respectfully ensured that our conversations flowed seamlessly, never once interrupting the heartfelt moments shared. To add to the festivities, the restaurant graciously allowed us to have a photobooth, providing us with the perfect opportunity to capture the joy and laughter of this milestone celebration. It was a thoughtful gesture that added an extra touch of magic to the evening. I also enjoyed the food, the portion were not enormous but quite frankly enough to be satisfied. Thank you Calvi for making my 40th birthday celebration a memorable one.

Everything was amazing. Food, service & atmosphere. Food

The restaurant is very beautiful and the private rooms too. If it was just the location and the food, I would have given it a very good rating. Unfortunately, the waitress we had totally ruined our experience (I cant specify her name, she never gave it to us). She had an attitude from the start of the service as if we were bothering her and she wanted it to end as quickly as possible. Very abrupt, almost no courtesy, in his approach. Afterward, the salmon was barely cooked. We told the waitress about it. She didnt even want to bother to look at our dishes and listen to our dissatisfaction. She immediately cut us off to say that: <that was how he cooked fish like that and that complaining wasnt going to change anything. She said that she would not return our salmon to the kitchen to be more cooked to our preference and that the cooks would simply return the same salmon with the same cooking! Its take it or leave it and the next time, we will just have to have a different meal because they will not make any adjustments to the cooking > . We were stunned by the rudeness, contempt and harshness of this waitress!!! Suffice to say: < at Calvi the restaurant is king and the customer is nothing! Eat what we give you as is without complaining or leave!> our group therefore ate their salmon as is, having no other choice following the intransigence of this waitress! I went to ask to speak to the manager to explain to him and he was very courteous and helpful (totally the opposite of this waitress) and told me that he could cook the salmon more if we asked without any problem. . The owners wife was also professional and helpful. They finally agreed to cook my salmon more. The same waitress brought it to me with an icy attitude!!! In short, good restaurant, good concept but employees who dont have the customer at heart at all! Afterwards the waitress imposed a tip of 18% for the group (handwritten on the bill) and said that it was obligatory . I didnt see it anywhere written about group menu policies on their site. I no longer had the strength to claim more at the risk of ruining the anniversary we were celebrating. We paid and left.

Very good restaurant, generous portion, thanks to the manager Adil who was very helpful and warm, he guided us well in the choice of cocktails, very beautiful restaurant in terms of decor we feel good there. Special mention the seafood pasta is succulent.

Food was very good. Dessert was even better.

The meal was delicious and the service was impeccable.

Very good service from Patricia this evening. We were a group of 13 and she offered us impeccable service. The food was very good and worth the price. Patricia knows the menu well and helped us with our choices. Were going back for sure

We went there for a friends 60th birthday last night. It was simply perfect. The food is super good, the service is great, the staff is really super nice. I RECOMMEND 200%

Average service..noisy

Noisy restaurant Very expensive meal. I took the veal scalopini for $37, there was very little pasta and the sauce didnt taste like blue cheese as mentioned in the ad. The quality and quantity has deteriorated. Its a shame because I used to go there often. The two of us came out with $140. Its way too expensive for a lunch.

Great place for business lunches.

Went as a group of 9. The food was just OK, I got a veal scalopini and it came with what looked like canned or frozen baby shrimp, which is not what I was expecting for a $30+ dish. We had little issues with service such as needing to remind them for drinks, cutlery etc. The private room we were in was nice though, and they had a few in the restaurant. Probably wont be back on my own, but it was a good place for a large crowd.

Well-made menu of generous, well-presented, and delicious Mediterranean/Italian dishes for everything chosen by four guests; from starters to desserts. Beautiful wine list; nothing cheap.,. A quiet Monday evening, certainly, but a frankly friendly and competent service.

The food not spectacular like before.

The worst experience in a very long time. I organize parties, so I eat out several times a week. The baldness is the worst in years. No smile, no kindness, no listening, the whole group was not satisfied without exception. In addition, the waiter emptied the groups bottles for me without asking me what I wanted, against my will. He even ordered a bottle without asking me about my bill. He threw away my coupons without asking me: value of $25. People left out of discomfort. Taking the order was...phew. had been with friends, I would have left! Even for the arrangement of tables, as soon as I arrived I was disturbing and they made me feel it. Hello, are you okay nothing! Its the next day and Im still angry at their lousy service. For the food it was ok, but the presentation looked sloppy, basic and careless. Frankly, Im impressed that this still exists. I get better service at the local canteen.

Very good !!

A dish of salami with the worst sauce Ive ever tasted, a dish of lettuce with no dressing, I feel like Im being fed to the slaughterhouse.

Excellent service delicious food warm atmosphere

I really enjoyed the service and room we were, very private and allowed us to conduct our business meeting with focus. The food was good, perhaps the steak should have been cooked a little more.

I had dinner for my 40th birthday with 35 guests! We were received from the moment we entered until we left, from the owners to the waiters; with attention and professionalism and nothing but a smile! My guests loved the food! We recommend this establishment with a unique flavor

I didnt like my experience at all. The food was terrible and the service poor. I dont recommend.

2 hours of time before receiving our dishes. Very arrogant owner, food leaves something to be desired. I do not recommend

The food was not good, Bad service from the owner, arrogant owner even towards his employees

Saturday night with the wife. Fresh fish and service were excellent. Thank you.

Very attentive service despite extremely slow cooking but the manager is not aware that he has a job in customer service. Just based on his work ethic I will definitely not return to this restaurant.

We had a group dinner with 3 choices on the menu, quite simple but we waited 2.5 hours for the main course which was very ordinary for the price. The waitresses were very nice but not the boss, never again!

For the price, the food was not up to par!

We booked a room for a birthday, our waiter Robert was attentive and gave us 5* service. The room is perfect and intimate, the meal is very good, if you like truffles take the truffle glasses, its exquisite. For a first time at this restaurant I recommend.

A big thank you to Adile and her team who served us perfectly yesterday at the Calvi restaurant. We rented a room to accommodate sixty of our loved ones to celebrate the baptism of my son. Both the very professional service and the delicious food. Without a doubt I would return to my next events with pleasure and without hesitation.

Nous avons célébré notre anniversaire dans le restaurant. 6 mai 2023. Les meubles sont vieux, le menu est comme si les chiens rongeaient . Linvité a eu des cheveux dans la nourriture. Le vin est moldave et son prix est français . La nourriture a le goût habituel, il ny a rien de mémorable . Les prix sont élevés, je ne conseille pas !!!!

Great food and service

I went for dinner last Tuesday with my friends. The food was good and our waitress Daphnée gave us an outstanding service. She paid attention and was very professional. Thank you we will be back!

A little disappointed since last year, very good portion, great private lounge, very good service

Small delay for entries. There were 6 of us and it took about 15 minutes or more before all the dishes arrived.

Wedding reception in a private room. Very competitive prices per plate in the group formula. Impressive quality food for the price. The service staff must be better trained, as they are a little disorganized during service.

Just Avoid this place. The restaurant was empty, The manager name Adil welcomed us. However, he didn t seems to happy, since we were with 2 kids. Therefore, he gave us a table in an isolated room, where it was very hot. As soon as we wanted to sit, he even closed the door. It was 42 degrees Celsius outside. I asked him is the air conditioning working in that room, he told me yes . Which was not true. Therefore we decided to leave and we came to Sterling Steakhouse right next door. They were very nice and accommodating and helpful with the kids. Mr. Adil I hope you have kids and if you do, I hope no one s treats you like how you treated us.

Great service (!!) but the food and ambiance here are absolutely nothing to write home about. The food was mediocre and as such acceptable, but the overall experience feels tired and dated. I understand that not every place wants to be trendy, but Calvi lacks a sense of pride. Parking: Mall parking

The service was pretty bad. We found a bug in one of our glasses and after removing the insect, our server tried to give us the same glass of wine since the wine was still drinkable. The food was good but the service was very off putting.

Great service and perfect cooking. To try again

great staff..

The food is very good.

2nd lunch at this restaurant, super good and nice room for presentations!!

Perfect place for any occasion! As a couple, with friends or to mark a special event!! Parking: Your servers will guide you in choosing your menu and remain available for your needs or dietary restrictions.

An incomparable welcome, exceptional service from Robert, a place to discover! We cant wait to go back.

I had a great time ! Fantastic restaurant Fantastic food Fantastic service. 5/5 It is a must you wont regret it!!!

We celebrated my daughters birthday at this restaurant. The atmosphere already upon arriving was not very warm. The prices are much too high for the quality of the dishes. The worst part is the service. Poor. Rushed, unsmiling, expeditious. We brought a cake from outside and the funny thing is that they charged us $3 per person for cutting it (for 10 people, a total of $30 to cut a cake). I couldnt even cut it by myself, seems like thats the price to pay for not spending on their uninteresting dessert menu. After the birthday, I asked the waitress to portion out the rest of the cake to put in my box, she made a completely botched cut and spilled the portions into the box. It was an absolutely unpleasant experience, especially due to the service.

good supper

Mediterranean charm, courteous staff and delicious food. A must.

We were a group of 14 in one of their beautiful private rooms. Our server, Jessica, what is absolutely outstanding. Smiling, fluently, bilingual, and very attentive to all of our needs. The food was exceptional and served hot. Calvary never disappoints.

We wanted to eat pasta (on a Monday evening) but, due to an event in one section of the restaurant, we were obliged/forced to choose from a special 4-course table dhôte menu with 3 choices of main course (no pasta). We requested a change of menu but was refused. The food was excellent but we were a family of 7 so it cost us very expensive (over $400 without alcohol or soft drinks) for a dinner that we had budgeted around $200.

It was a most pleasant moment, excellent service (Noémie) good recommendations, a visit followed by a tasting of good wine with our sommelier.

Truly incredible. I didnt know this restaurant. The dishes were delicious, impeccable service. Wow

Beau restaurant bien situé dans Centropolis. La nourriture est très bonne. Possibilité de réserver une salle privée pour les groupes (il y a plusieurs salles). Le soir de notre venue, la serveuse était gentille mais ne venait pas fréquemment pour remplir les verres deau et avait oublié dapporter lapéro commandé par une des convives.

I recently went to dinner at Calvi for the first time for an evening with work. It was my first experience at this restaurant and I wanted to highlight the excellent service of the server Samuel. We all really appreciated it and it contributed to the smooth running of the evening despite the workload with the large group that we were in.

Best Mediterranean restaurants

Ordinary food. My steak was tough. Didnt change the plate for fear it would be the same. No flavors or aromas in meals. Lots of salt though. Very good service. And excellent welcome. The decor of the center room is beautiful. The rest is of no interest. I wouldnt go back.

Went to this restaurant last night and the food was great! The unfortunate part was the ending! They rushed us out by bringing our bill without us having asked for it, what if we wanted to order something else? Even if there were other customers coming in and you need to free a table, you should have started with all the other tables of people who we found there! I have a theory on why we were the chosen ones to be rushed out but hey that s cool!

The experience was great. Food was amazing The services was great but a little slow at times. They had a huge choices of wine. If you like great good and dont mind waiting a little its a great place to try

Warm and inviting...Costa is a true restaurantor! The food is delicious!

Worst service ever. In a privately rented room of 50 ppl party too expensive for. Food and drink. That they had to replace 3 times to get it right . Also bo A/C. Super boiling to the point everyone is sweating

Cosy atmosphere. Excellent meat, dessert and wine

Order anything except steak too tough and bad tasting. And the host interrupts to express his opinions

Very nice business lunch. Excellent octopus (and i am picky). Good service. No complaints.

Excellent service and food

Consistently mouthwatering, amazing staff and service.

Food was good. Service was ok but please, if you have a deal on the wine, please mention it! Not great to discover it after we ordered.

We loved this place. Impeccable service and really fresh food. Good selection of wine on the menu at 50% off on Friday and Saturday!!! Really interesting.

Friendly service and atmosphere. The food was delicious and prepared to our liking.

You must try their fried fish!

Good meal, great atmosphere! However, in my starter there were ants circulating on the plate...I was left with my appetite of course they replaced the starter without more!...

Supper for a fortieth. Very ordinary service and food leaves much to be desired. Plates arrive cold, poor quality steak for the asking price. If you want to eat a good meal, this is not the place

The staff was awesome and the food was amazing, nice wine selection with its own wine cellar. Although food was expensive it was priced well for the quality. The only negative was we were told it was 1/2 off wine which I did not receive. Will go again despite that!

Rented the upstairs private room for a very special event. The food was great but what was even more outstanding was the service and attention from Philippe and Karen. Philippe helped us take our pictures, made sure everything was perfect! Offered before we had to ask, his service was A1. Highly recommend!

We were there for a 50th wedding anniversary. Excellent choice of group meal, impeccable service, the salmon gravlax, simply delicious! Well... a little expensive, but its worth the detour!

You want elegance, come to this restaurant. The food was amazing and the service was impressive.

Very good food and service. On the other hand, it is expensive

Beautiful chic

Group menu chosen by the restaurant. Execrable dishes. No seasoning. Frozen products (chicken and fish), burnt vegetables. I absolutely do not recommend.

It was good but not exceptional. One piece of advice would be to turn down the music on the terrace area, really annoying, we cant hear each other.

Good service, very good quality. Rather chic judging by the very high heels and the pretty dresses... Fortunately the wine was half price, because otherwise the bill would have been less digestible. Overall, a pretty good address.

Super good, excellent service

Absolutely delicious! Best fried calamari Ive ever had.

We really enjoyed the welcome and the food at this restaurant. The meeting room made available to us and the service were impeccable. We will definitely return. The lamb was succulent!!!

Ok service and food. Nothing impressive and nothing horrible.

Amazing service, delicious food

Very nice cozy place to have a business lunch, owner is down to earth, Costa was welcoming the moment we entered the restaurant, he s a pro, staff is very friendly, smiling all the time, quick, food was great, I highly suggest giving Calvi a try, you wilt regret it. The burger is totally different than any burger we had, fish n chips is A1. The wine cellar is very nice touch.

Excellent food

Service was okay, we were a big group in a private portion of the restaurant. One waitress with blond hair was amazing, the other young waitress didnt want to be there. The amount of times I saw her roll her eyes was shocking. The food was a hit or miss. My mother had the fish and she said it wasnt good at all and beyond salty. The braised lamb was very delicious though. Everything else, like entrees, salads wasnt memorable. I had my daughter with me and no where in the bathroom was there a changing table to change her diaper. I thought by law all restaurants have to have changing tables.

Parking: it is around the restaurant But Centropolis is always crowded so you have to go early to find a spot near the resto.

Excellent food. Friendly service. Outside the box.

Really delicious lamb jar, recommended

Went there after work. Its really hard to find parking despite having outdoor parking available... The food is good.

Very good restaurant. The food is excellent. However, the building could use a little love.

Always super good

Amazing food absolutely delicious, great service. I recommend to all to try a first time, I guarantee you will go back.

I loved this restaurant in every way! Ample parking which makes this business easily accessible! We discover a very lit and tastefully decorated place! There are also several lounges for groups who wish to be private (personal or business)! The menu is very varied and interesting! We had a starter of very fresh and perfectly seasoned oysters! She tasted the freshness of the sea! For the main course, shrimp and lamb shank! Another real delight! Everything was sublime! Our service by Wiam was perfect and the boss Nius explained some dishes well! The price lives up to the reputation of this restaurant! Congratulations to the chef and his assistants and to the other members of the team who allowed us to discover one of the great restaurants of Laval and Greater Montreal! To recommend without hesitation! Until next time!

Very good food and service

I went on Saturday, and the restaurant was crowded (there were 4 of us) I go to Calvi mainly to be able to eat a good whole grilled fish, unfortunately, the cook did not honor my order, without warning me, I ended up with a piece of Chilean sea bass, (BOILED), despite the return of this dish, I was told that I had no choice, (not very professional) so I swallowed this fish, the vegetables with it, (unknown) not edible the waitress was admirably patient, and couldnt do anything more, I still had the pleasure of eating the marinated octopus as for wine, no choice If I go back, I will never go on Saturday again Have a nice day and enjoy your meal

We were very well received, we were a group of 40 people. Saturday the 19th to celebrate our 60th anniversary The impeccable service and the 2 waiters who were so pleasant and attentive to our needs I really recommend Parking: Very accessible

Restaurant le cavli Master thinks he knows everything Quality of dishes meh

The braised lamb is a treat and their bread is a delight.

We ate very well, the service was great, there were 24 of us for a volunteer dinner and everyone was very good, there are two beautiful rooms reserved for around thirty people Dietary restrictions: You can request vegetarian, peanut-free or lactose-free meals. Parking: Um very large and free parking with spaces reserved for the disabled

Dinner one afternoon with friends. The dishes are excellent and generous: veal liver, beef steak and Poke bowl with red tuna tataki. The service was impeccable (Ms. Danika) although a little slow, but with the number of customers and the groups present, that is understandable. Everything would deserve 5 stars if it werent for the manager who approached us as if we were bothering him. Not very courteous and not at all warm. When the time came to choose the wine, we decided to take it by the glass. We ask Mr. the manager what he recommends to us, he tells us that he will find what suits us depending on the dishes chosen. The choice was very good, but the surprise awaited us on the bill: $18 and $20 a glass! In fact, I think he chose the most expensive wines by the glass, without telling us!! A blatant lack of tact as a restaurateur Well, we could have asked for the wine list. instead of trusting him, Next time we wont get caught.

Went on a weekday evening, hardly anyone there but yet the service was lacking. Caesar salad was made with green lettuce instead of romaine. Became very soggy. Plates did not look nice. Steak was very hard to chew. Where was the veggies in the shrimp and veggies dish? Cold and tough shrimp. And the ravioli was just ok. I expected so much more from this restaurant. I was not impressed at all. Did not finish plates. Sprinkling tomatoes does not make a plate look nice..

We rented a small room for our office party and we were very satisfied. The evening would not have been as enjoyable without our waitress Vicky who had the perfect attitude and provided impeccable service. Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options are limited but very good. Parking: Theres really no shortage of space.

Wanted to thank every one at Calvi for making our Office Christmas Party a great experience ! Great Service, Great staff! Vegetarian options: accommodate vegans without a problem

Food is just fine but had a great service. Ambiance is nice too.

Nice ambiance

Great food, great service, lovely ambiance.

Impeccable service, excellent food and service in compliance with health measures.

Very arrogant owner. Small portion, for the price.

good good +++

Very expensive compared to the quality, it was correct but expensive and in my opinion, when it is expensive, correct is not enough. A lust price for an overcooked steak with mashed potatoes and asparagus (in Laval with downtown Montreal prices). Ordinary.
