" I visited Calle Dao with high expectations, and I was not disappointed! The food was a perfect combination of Cuban and Asian flavors. The tres leches cake is a must-try – it was delicious! The service staff was attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere was bustling yet cozy. However, I found the dinner prices to be on the higher side. Still, the experience was worth every penny! I will certainly return to enjoy more of their inventive dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm quite the foodie and enjoy exploring different cuisines, so I decided to try Calle Dao based on the rave reviews online. From the moment I stepped in, I was drawn to the vibrant decor and warm atmosphere. The service was friendly, and they quickly recommended their popular lobster noodles. They did not disappoint! Each bite was delectable and packed with flavor. The only downside was that the prices felt a bit high, but the unique experience of savoring Cuban and Asian dishes made it worthwhile. I’ll definitely return soon to explore more of their menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't get enough of Calle Dao! Their fusion of culinary techniques and street food flavors is genius. The outdoor seating is a delight, and the staff there creates a welcoming environment. I sampled a variety of things, but the mushroom noodles and tres leches were exceptional. I look forward to returning and seeing if their seasonal menu changes offer even more wonderful surprises! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Calle Dao was very mixed. While I loved the concept of Cuban-Asian fusion, some dishes just missed the mark. The fried rice was underwhelming and not as flavorful as I hoped. However, the tres leches cake was outstanding! The waiter was friendly, although we experienced longer wait times for our food. I think there's great potential here, and I'd like to give it another shot for just the dessert alone. " (*Curated Review*)

" Calle Dao truly delivers a unique dining experience with their Cuban-Asian fusion dishes. The ambiance is vibrant, and I found it to be a great place for a special evening out with friends. I particularly enjoyed the mushroom wontons and the Cuban sandwich spring rolls as starters. Main courses delivered too, with flavorful options like the ropa vieja noodles and tender steak. The service was friendly but a bit slow at times. I recommend making a reservation, as it gets quite busy, especially during weekends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Calle Dao for brunch and was impressed by their bottomless mimosa option! The atmosphere was bright and cheerful, ideal for a laid-back weekend. I ordered the fried rice, which was good, though I felt it could have had a bit more flavor. Not everything was perfect, but the friendly service made our experience enjoyable. I wouldn't mind returning to explore more brunch options or try their dinner menu next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Calle Dao was a delightful discovery! I went there for brunch and tried their Cuban sandwich spring rolls, which were bursting with flavor. I also had the chimmichurri pepper steak, and though the portion was on the smaller side for the price, it was beautifully cooked and seasoned. The atmosphere was lively, making it a great spot to enjoy a weekend meal. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a creative dining experience with a twist!
