Callisto’s is one of the best Portuguese restaurants I’ve been to, with delicious and fiery meals that keep you going. I think my dad and I only got through half of our seafood curry which had a rich tomato-based sauce. The meat of the prawns, mussels and squid was tender and juicy. The starters were amazing: garlic bread and cheesy garlic bread. I recommend this place for a big lunch of dinner because their big portion sizes.
Friendly staff. Great lighting. Spanish and Portuguese music. Good vibe. My family and I go often for dinner. Food is always tasty. The half a kilo prawns are a favourite, as well as the seafood platter and steaks. Must try their mozambican chicken curry.

I have not travelled in a while so I thouroughly enjoy when I have an experience reminding me of days abroad. The ambiance and music at Calistos at Gold Reef makes me nostalgic and I had a very relaxing experience where time became insignificant.
I am in love with the salsa on the table and could not get enough. It is fortunate that I could buy some to take home. The food took less time than I anticipated it would and it was well presented and still warm. We had a very attentive and accommodating waiter who could explain items on the menu and I appreciated the personal attention from one of the owners.
I had the Trinchado as a starter, the beef cubes were tender to bite into, however I found the sauce to be a little too salty for my taste, although, having it with the roll helped curb this and I did enjoy the starter.
As a main I had the signature dish. I was not prepared for the size and it is definately a dish that should be shared with a few friends. I am not a fan of crab meat but this experience has made me reconsider that view. The dish is a rice dish with a mixture of seafood and I found it pleasant, but it did not give me a wow factor that I would expect from a signature dish.
I had no space for dessert but did have a taste from my partner's Cappuccino Tartufo. The texture was a bit grainy but the taste spoke more of something of a signature dish. Dessert ended on a high.
The service and ambiance of the restaurant I found faultless. The food was not bad and the portion sizes more than generous. I would definately repeat the experience with a friend and would like to try different items on the menu.
