Restaurant is really big and clean. Staff were friendly. Portion is alright, beef fajita was decent. Lamb shank was tender, falls off the bone, slightly gamy. Taste wise, more could be done for the sauce, can afford more salt and herbs. Mash on the other hand was done really well. Smooth and creamy. Crab cake was too salty. The banana smoothie was pretty good, while the strawberry smoothie tasted like strawberry jam. You can request for 0 sugar added.

Nice and quiet at 1830 hrs on a weekday. Came with the Eatigo 50% off, and got the Duck Carbonara, Beef Fajitas and Beef Cheek. Both beef dishes done to perfection with tender meat, robust flavor and good portion size. Pasta was a little unevenly cooked but the sauce was creamy and rich and not too heavy. The duck was quite flavorful as well. It's worth the money.

Great dining experience at cali. We ordered the seabass and beef burger and both were absolutely delicious—perfectly cooked and juicy, with a great balance of flavors. The mushroom soup was also a highlight—rich, creamy, and full of depth. The overall meal was very satisfying, and the service was friendly and attentive.

D. C.

Very good service from Charles rendered while celebrating my wife's birthday with family. My children all said that the food is yummy, esp the wagyu burger. The duck carbonara is nice too!!

R. T.

food came abit later then expected (20min), but it was good. I had the beef cheek and it was 3.5/5, good taste, vege and mash potato were a good addition. My bf had the tandoori chicken pizza (edit: tikka pizza) which was not bad, but can be more flavorful. I found it to be a 3/5. I recommend this place for its ambience😆 good 2010s music too

Y. C. S.

The service was very good. We came on Sunday evening and the atmosphere was good. The slow cooked beef cheek, which is one of the signature dishes, was nice

A. B.

Really, really enjoyed everything - quinoa with Chicken Tikka, mushroom soup, beef cheeks, stuffed chicken, and brûlée (which was slightly overcooked, but delicious nonetheless). I am a picky eater and they were also very accommodating with my dietary preferences. Nice choice of music, too. Will be back to try more dishes 😊

M. L.

Love this cost and quiet atmosphere. Good for family / friend gathering, or even for a business meeting! It is Located at Park Avenue hotel. The food portion is generous. Had the crab meat pasta, the crab meat portion is generous too. Cooked it in white wine, its a different taste! Pizza is thin crust which i love!

G.

Pleasant. Food was decent and happy hour wine price was good. Ordered the spinach, quesadillas and crabcake. All not bad.

M. O.

Had a lovely evening out at this quiet and peaceful space. My husband and I enjoyed the Beef Tenderloin Fajitas ($32), Chicken Tikka Pizza ($28) and the Prawn Asparagus Pasta ($30). The tomato salsa that came with the fajitas gave a great kick, and that was our favourite dish. For a limited time only, we were so glad to know there is a 1 for 1 special going on! The Lava Torte ($14) was a delightful ending to the meal, I would have had a second helping of that if I had the space for it.

It is our first time here at CALI at Park Avenue Rochester and the ambiance is really nice. Staff are also friendly :) We ordered the Cali Wings, Mushroom Soup, Crab Meat Pasta and Pork Fajitas which was yummy! The Cali Wings had a nice smoky taste, Mushroom Soup was earthy and tasty, Crab Meat Pasta came with a generous amount of crab meat. We love the Pork Fajitas in particular as it came sizzling and steamy on a hot plate and we enjoyed the spice and seasoning of the pork. Overall a great place to chill and have lunch or dinner with your family and friends ☺️.

E. P.

The Best fries ever!cryspy yet soft inside. Every dish We ordered are so yummy! Kods love it too! Been here 3 times already! The set meal very worth it! Derive crews all very attentive. Highly recommended!

Highly recommend this place! The restaurant had great ambience which made it really comfortable to dine in. The staff is also very friendly. The food is of high quality as well. Especially enjoyed the beef fajitas and lava cake :) Will be back :D

c. J.

Had a lovely dining experience at this restaurant . We ordered cali wings which was flavourful and well marinated , crispy truffle fries as starter . For mains we had the chicken fajitas where we got to do our own wrapping and mixing in the ingredients on the wrap . It was a nice mix of savoury flavours . We also ordered the baby back ribs , the ribs were tender and fell off the bone . The nice ambiance , with great company and scrumptious food makes us want to visit it again . Food is on a more pricey end but worth it with deals .

C. W.

a little bit of wait for food, but worth the wait:) here to try the beef cheek and lava torte, good indeed, fajita good too

S. C.

Bought a deal on Fave for $5.90. Portions were generous and service was good despite being a "discount" customer. Charle's service in particular was fantastic.

s. s.

I went there with my husband for dinner during weekday! I loves the place that allows sunlight to shine in and we can eat in peace! Service was excellent and staff are friendly! We had Baby Back Ribs and Crab Meat Pasta for our main course as well as Cali Wings (mid joint wings marinated with BBQ Sauce!) with refreshing Ice Lemon Tea! Overall the food there is deliciously good and flavorful with their special sauce! Perfect place for lunchtime business meetings, gatherings with your family or friends, or couple date!

E. M.

Came on a Saturday afternoon and tried the beef cheek and seabass. Food was well prepared and I enjoyed a great deal with the eatigo promo!

S.

My friend and I ordered the Wagyu burger, Korubuta Pork Loin Fajitas, and Buttered Asparagus, and we highly recommend the Korubuta pork loin! The flavours of the pork loin, together with the tortilla and condiments, complement each other. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience, thanks to the outstanding service and great vibes here 🥰

T. L.

My extended family had a gathering at Cali last Saturday evening. Charles, the manager went the extra mile to ensure that everything went smoothly, and everyone had a comfortable and enjoyable time. In particular, we liked the big space and ambience at Cali. The food and desserts were very good.

j.

Food was not bad, pretty fresh and portions were okay. Would recommend the grilled seabass and chicken quesadilla! Service could be improved as the waiter was not abit blur.

J. Y.

Ambience was great with live sports show available. The truffle fries and the mushroom soup are must-get starters.

D. E.

food was good! we got the chicken fajitas and truffle fries🍟 the chicken was juicy and tender and the condiments provided went really well together with the chicken in the wrap🌯 the fries were crispy and thick and the truffle flavour was prominent! would recommend to come

S.

A Nice and Chill Place for Lunch Walkable from Buona Vista MRT, when during lunch. Service was amazing, love the cozy place as well. We had their Set Lunch which was worth the price and also their Sautéed Spinach with pine nut and Portobello burger.

G. K. T.

Highly recommended. Serving portion is huge. The food is delicious. Quality is consistent. Set lunch is value for the price. Giving special mention to Manager Charles who is attentive to our needs.

L. S.

Came here for Restaurant Week and a good selection of appetizers and mains are offered and the taste is exceptional.

S. Y.

We loved the variety of southwestern dishes and also vegetarian options! The ambience was lovely and the staff was nice too. We tried the baby pork ribs and the kurobuta pork fajitas, which were tasty! The portion for the meats were generous and the fries were crispy! I love the concept of the fajitas — super fun to make!

D. L.

Reasonable priced drinks and food. Good service too. Nearest mrt s Buona Vista.

S. A.

Great food at affordable prices. The beef cheek was super tender and cooked to perfection. The food was served promptly and the service was excellent

T. M.

Like the bright and airy setting; relaxed yet elegant ambience at CALI at Park Avenue Rochester. A great place to enjoy authentic Southwestern cuisine, be it for lunchtime business meetings, gatherings of family and friends, or intimate nights out. Enjoyed the food we ordered. Slow Cooked Beef Cheek was extremely tender, juicy, flavourful. The mashed potato and sautéed vegetables were perfect side dishes to complement. Meat-Zza Pizza with chicken, ham, pepperoni, prawn catered well to kids who love different flavours, without any wastage or excessive order. Lava Torte is a perfect dessert! Chocolate cake baked to perfection, summer berries compote, vanilla ice cream. So pleasing to see the warm chocolate lava ooze so smoothly out!

C. W. S.

We ordered the lamb shank and it’s fork tender, match perfectly with the mashed potato! 😍

J. L.

I was here last Sunday evening for dinner with my hubby and 3 friends. It was raining heavily so the restaurant is not busy. It was just us and another table of customers who arrived shortly after. Service is good. Food is quite nice. I just find the pizza a little dry and not hot enough when served. Date of visit: 29 Aug 2021

b. H.

the ambience was quiet and cozy, great place for a friends or family gathering! location is convenient and staff was quite friendly too. there was a wide selection of food to choose from, but the notable one out of all that we've tried was the beef cheek in red wine sauce! it was SO tender and the sauce went perfectly with the beef & mash. the mushroom pizza and fajitas were good too!

J. H.

Food was great, atmosphere was pleasant to be in. Place was relatively clean and table service was up to standards too :) food was also served fast. highly recommend the garlic bread and chicken burger. Chicken burger is not dry, which makes it nicer too.

X. N.

highly recommend the spicy jalapeño tostada!!! jalapeños were slightly spicy and were very yummy with the cheese in it 😋 tostada dipped in avocado mango salsa was a good combi too. baby back ribs was very succulent and portion was huge! ordered the kurobuta pork fajitas too and it was good!! meat was tender and can be wrapped in tortilla wraps served 👍 chocolate lava cake was very flowy 😍

A.

Fantastic food and chicken tikka pizza is my personal favourite pretty good options for liquor, so peaceful to enjoy few beers and spend the evening with friends and great choice for couples to have dinner.Staff is very friendly especially Harshal the restaurant manager is prompt and efficient, Loved the atmosphere of outside sitting options as well.

S. H.

Went on a Saturday night, super chill ambience and service was good! Ordered the soup, quesadilla, crayfish pasta, & beef cheek to share w me and my partner! Beef cheek was super super tender & love the sauce for crayfish pasta! Slightly spicy but not jelak at all.

s. w.

Food and drinks were really good and the steak was so well seasoned! Generous portions and very friendly staff with excellent service. Especially Lucas, who was very accommodating and got us everything we needed efficiently. He was also very good at making conversation and we had a great time here. The atmosphere and cleanliness was also great :)

R. S.

Tried 🦀 Sante Fe Crab Cake [ prepped with southwest spices ] 🥔 Truffle Fries 🐮 Guinness infused Oxtail Medley 🍕 Truffled Mushroom Pizza Love the tranquil settings, great place to chillout. Dont miss their 1 for 1 promotion / 30% off their food menu - T&C applies ! Nested just right beside the park, we enjoyed the walk after our meal. Attentive servers on grounds 👍 Kids friendly restaurant too with high chair available!

L. N.

We had the $57 for 2 pax promo set menu! Super value for money. We each had a mushroom soup with toast, shared a starter (crab cake), each had a main (slow cooked beef and pork fajitas) and shared a dessert (molten lava cake). The slow cooked beef was soft and flavourful, fajitas were also flavourful and nicely grilled. Loved the molten lava cake, which flowed out nicely. Worth coming again for this ndp set!

S. W.

Staff were very friendly and welcoming throughout our visit. Food was on point too - thanks to the server for his great recommendations! Must try the fajitas and the lava torte💯

e. l.

A very relaxing, cosy and affordable atmosphere place to hangout with your friends or love ones. Staffs are polite, attentive, services is good👍. The foods are delicious, portion are also quite generous ,presentation of the foods nice. We enjoyed ourselves, will come back again.

H. M.

Visited CALI, Rochester for the second time today and tried their Set Lunch this time. It was a lovely 3-course Set Lunch serving quality food with generous serving. Highly recommended !!!

L.

Huge portions, really good food! Cali platter was wonderful, good to share w a table of 4. We enjoyed the spreads and dips greatly and the chimichangas and stuffed jalapeños were fantastic. We also shared the grilled sea bass, baby back ribs and pesto pizza. Each one was well marinated and the sauces were just right. Some places overdo the salt but here it brings out the flavors of the meat and fish well. Ended the day with a lava torte - 10/10 for the runny chocolate. 😊👍

N. L.

Amazing experience at CALI. Staff were really friendly! Had the Nachos, Wagyu Cheese Burger and the Tuffle Risotto. Great ambience both in and outdoors. Overall experience was great!

B. F.

Made a reservation, but the table is not even set. 5 pax but gave us so 1-2 of those paper menu. Other tables are set but don’t know why give us a table that is not set. Don’t know if it’s super busy or what (doesn’t seem so) but took so long for them to even regard you and take your order (took 3-4 tries to get them to acknowledge you). When we ordered water by the bottle, just gave us one cup when common sense tells anyone to give at least a few. Ordered two streaks of medium rare , turn out one is too rare the other is medium well . Mushroom soup- something so basic, is bland and thin. Otherwise, mains are not bad. Hot but do note you’ll have to wait a while. Notable menu items are the Cheesy Nachos. Unexpectedly good! Tldr: service is horrible has to keep reminding , but food is passable. You’ll have to order smartly as some items are less than subpar.

A. C.

food was great! love the fajitas the most, the crab cakes were really yummy too. overall, a nice dining experience

C.

The slow cook beef cheek was really good and tender, perfect blend of sauce, would be better if it’s hotter. The service was great very helpful and attentive staff. Good spacious sitting with good ambience :)

J. S. C.

had a great experience here, was simply amazing with the slow-cooked Beef Cheek that melted in your mouth, I didn’t even need to use my knife as it was so soft. music is tastefully selected across a range to suit the mood.

S. Y. L.

The atmosphere is quiet and chill. Service was good. Food was not too bad with fair price point.

W. m.

Been back many times :) the FAVE voucher is particular worth it! Portions are generous, definitely worth its price. Staff is always so very attentive & kind to us on the many times we visited. Today’s chicken burger 🍔 was so JUICY!!! Please try 😄

H. T.

I had to log on with another google ID to leave review again. I lived in many countries in the world and this restaurant might be one of the best in terms of their service and kindness. I dropped my food onto the floor by my mistake and I messed up the floor. Staff came to clean up immediately and also served the food again which I dropped. I was having tough life nowadays and never expected that I can get my mind healed by someone’s kindness in the restaurant on Saturday evening. Many thanks for your best kindness and services.

While @cali.singapore offered quite generous discounts, we didn't really enjoy the food. Out of all the food, the fish and chips, crab cakes and burgers was acceptable and tasted usual but the pizza and pasta did not make the mark. The pizza dough texture is a little rough and rubbery while the sauce and toppings is nothing much to shout about. The crab meat pasta has an odd taste to it instead of the sweetness of crab. Perhaps the food will taste better when dining in.

s.

It was our first time dining at Cali, and we were greeted warmly by Elvis who served us throughout the night. The food was great, overall. Maybe the Molten Lava Torte plating could be futher improved to a smaller plate or bowl.

G. N. C.

Good food and ambience! :) will be back.

S. S.

Came on a Thursday evening Ambience is great for a catch up Table setting is lovely The 57th National Day meal for 2 pax is so filling. Soup per pax Starter to share Mains per pax - we were half way through and were super full. Dessert to share Tea/coffee Yummy and nice! Will be back again. Service is slow but it's okay we weren't rushing.

L. K. L.

Quite a number of vegetarian options, love the mushroom pizza & choco lava torte!

C. L.

Delicious! Wide variety of food!

P. L.

The food items are hit and miss. Pork ribs are tender with meat falling off the bones. Wagyu burger was a tad dry and without seasoning. Beef stew gravy could do with a bit more punch. Portions are good size, eatigo discounts helped. Alcohol prices were reasonable. Service was on point.

c. y.

Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Food was not bad!

R. S.

Excellent pizza (in the pic: Tandoori Chicken), with just the right crispiness, and generous amount of cheese. Don't forget to ask for Tabasco and chili flakes. Friendly service too!

y. t.

A Cosy restaurant near buona vista mrt, nice ambience which surrounded by greenery. Food is delicious and their lunch set is a good deal. Recommended for family and friends gatherings! 👍🏻

R. C.

Good food. Staff friendly and good service. Nice ambience for a dinner with friends. I love the lava cake. Sea Bass good too. Prawn pasta recommended too.

Y. C.

I would like to commend Charles for excellent service recovery - going above and beyond to get my food to me despite the deliveroo rider picking up the wrong order. Food itself is not bad! very value for money with deliveroo promotion

L. C.

Excellent Mexican Food. Casual, quiet place for a Sunday night dinner. Love the Lava Torte, Stuffed Chicken breast ( really tasty). We normally do not eat fried food but the Jalepeño Tostada is an exception.. Would recommend and will visit again.

C. P.

Place was very quiet on a Sunday. Liked the chef’s recommendation - prawn and asparagus pasta. Smoothie didn’t go down so well. Good discounts available on restaurant booking app Chope.

S. 蚂.

Very quiet & cozy atmosphere, It is Located at Park Avenue hotel~ Meat-zza pizza is thin crust which very flavourful, their staff very friendly 😊

M. S.

Staff are friendly and attentive. Food portions are great and sumptuous.

Q. C.

One of the best eatigo deal ever! Pork ribs is most worth and beef cheeks is ok.

This is my 2nd visit this month. Found it to be a very good place to have lunch with colleagues on a weekday. The lunch set is a 4 course (including coffee/tea). Good choices for appetizers and main course. Today I had pan-seared tuna for appertizer and roasted chicken leg which was yummy. 😊 As with my previous visits, portion was generous, food was tasty and service was very good. 👍👍

J. T.

Harshal, in particular, was very helpful and attentive to us. Generous servings of food and it was overall a pleasant experience here. Thanks to Charles for assisting us with the coordinating our big group reservation!

F.

We love the ambiance and food. The jazzy tunes and well-lit space with full-length windows set the mood. The Beef Tenderloin Fajitas were a delight – perfectly seasoned beef, and those caramelized onions were a generous touch. Crayfish Pasta hit the spot, the pasta is al dente and sauce is flavourful. The Wagyu cheese burger patty was seasoned to perfection, and the cheesy nachos, paired with salsa, sour cream, and guacamole, were a flavor explosion. The service was top-notch with friendly staff. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience and definitely planning to visit again. Check out @Foodjescapade on IG for more photos & in-depth review!
