" Absolutely fantastic experience at Kalamata! The ambiance was both cozy and lively, making it perfect for our family gathering. We ordered a variety of dishes, from the sushi to the pasta, and everything was simply delicious. The seafood was fresh, and the pizza had a delightful wood-fired flavor. Service was attentive without being intrusive, and we left feeling quite pleased with our choice. Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic Italian food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an incredible evening at Kalamata! The decor is charming, and the food is just divine. We started with their beet salad followed by a personal pizza. Both dishes were made with high-quality ingredients, and the flavors were out of this world. The service was attentive and friendly, which made the experience even better. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a fancy but affordable meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" Kalamata offers a unique twist with its menu that embraces both Italian and sushi! I was skeptical at first, but the sushi was surprisingly fresh and well-crafted. The pizzas are top-notch, too! Just make sure to come early during weekends as it gets packed quickly. Great experience overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" Kalamata has always been our go-to for family events, especially their Sheva brochos. The food is consistently fresh and delicious. We had a variety of dishes, all of which were well prepared and beautifully plated. The staff really outdid themselves this time, ensuring everything ran smoothly. I can't praise their efforts enough! My only complaint is that it can get quite busy, so making a reservation is highly recommended. " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointing experience this time. The food, while normally excellent, felt off. The ravioli was lacking flavor, and the service was slow. I'm hoping this was just an off day because I’ve had great experiences here before. " (*Curated Review*)

" The pizza was delicious but the ravioli did not impress - it was bland and overpriced for what it was. I appreciated the service, but I felt ignored at times. It’s a charming place overall, just need to keep an eye on quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" Kalamata provides an extensive range of tantalizing dishes, yet my standout favorites remain the sushi and pizza. The chefs truly seem to love their craft, and it shows in the taste and presentation of every dish. The ambiance makes it a perfect spot for relax dining. " (*Curated Review*)
