“ The Best by far!! The Chef George went above and beyond taking care of us!!! Made an incredible plate for us… Unique experience The entrance is tiny and not so clear… part of the experience.. and concept ”
“ Jorge is a chef from Seattle and the hostess Carmen is as well. They’ve brought kindness and Thai food, delicious and authentic, minus minor tweaks and variation to my favorite Baja paradise, Todos Santos. Highly recommend! The Mezcal Cocktail with grapefruit, lime and bitters was perfectly balanced. It prepared our appetites for the delightful Pork Gyosa. The Mussels in coconut broth was really good too. But the Flank Steak with Crying Tiger sauce was the showstopper. We were thoroughly impressed. ”
“ Coming from San Diego, I was used to many great Thai food options. The last few years down here it has been very limited. But now, I’ve found an option that is as good as anything I’ve ever eaten in California. It’s really good. ”
“ I love Calypso, food is great, but it would be nice if they introduce new dishes as specials, menu has been pretty much the same since opening including the specials. Everything Jorge makes is delicious, whether is Thai or Italian. I love the atmosphere!! No other place like it in the area. ”
“ Another amazing meal at Calypso Thai. We discovered this gem about six weeks ago and have been about once a week ever since. The food is always fresh and amazingly flavourful. The quality far exceeds anywhere we have been in Todos. The atmosphere is intimate. Our new favourite restaurant by a long shot. ”
“ This place was great. Located near the entrance of town, down some stairs is a lovely spot with a few tables. Nicer than casual atmosphere. Hostess and owner were lovely, food was delicious, and check was extremely reasonable. Looking forward to a return visit. ”
“ Do yourself a favor and find this hidden gem! Find your way down a Hidden staircase without a sign and you will find yourself in an enchanting, comfortable open air space. Chef George creates some absolutely fantastic dishes. Carmen was the host with the most, and really created such a wonderful atmosphere within the restaurant. Although they say that they are in the middle of expanding, the current space is so absolutely comfortable and inviting. I wish I had gotten pictures of the food, but we were ravenous, and everything was so good that we were shoving it in our mouth faster than I could take any photos! ”
