I stopped in on a day they're typically closed, but they were hosting a event, and we're taking guest post event. David went out of his way to accommodate us for a post dance class date with our little. What an incredible experience! We had not been here in years. While this is not a kid - restaurant, I will say they do have a high chair. Everything was perfect: the ribeye, the salad, the potatoes, and even the bread were all absolutely amazing. Calvert is truly a staple, consistently delivering great food and unforgettable moments. Thank you for reminding us why we love this place!

Food was great. We had blue point oysters, ribeye, and two lobsters Savanna style. They even through in a dessert for our anniversary. Service was exemplary. Chef checked on us during the meal also. A must try for all.

Definitely on the pricey side. If you looking for a place to wine and dine, and feel like you are rich, this is your place. Started off with a sazerac (which is their oldest bourbon drink) and Rockefeller oysters. The Sazerac is definitely a strong drink which paired well with the oysters. As for the main meal........ Grilled Sea Bass Charleston with Cast Iron Sea Scallops and brocollini! Man this fish was so smooth and lightly creamy, it just melted on your tongue. So flavorful and filling. Squeezed a little of the lemon on top and it was perfection. Like I said earlier, this place is on the pricey side. For me alone, it cost me $170. That was me not asking for more bourbon. The scallops were extra on the dish to be added, so that brought the price higher too. All in all, a great experience and even better server. If I would come back to this location, it would solely be to have Warren as our server. He made the night so much better for the experience by being himself. He made the night so special, even though we were celebrating a birthday, we literally closed the place down. He opened up in conversation and the rest was history. We ended up leaving an hour and a half after they scheduled to close because he wanted to ensure we were taken care of. To have a server bring the best ambience to our environment, was so special to have. I will promise you, if you go to this restaurant, ask for Warren to be your server. You won't be disappointed!!! Definitely coming back.

I personally like to say like French Grill West, Oliviana, and Abel Brown, Calvert has the best desserts I've tasted thus far. The Chocolate Roulade I purchased was so wonderful,tasteful, and amazing. The dessert reminded me of a Swiss roll or more like a cake roll but it was best dessert I've had at Calvert. Absolutely worth the visit.

Had made reservation and dined here with my parents Friday at 5:30pm for my parents 50th wedding anniversary. Several other guest came in and said that it was their anniversary too. Hadn't eaten here in years, but with the excellent service, food, and atmosphere I highly recommend coming for special occasions. This is a very quiet and intimate setting, but you don't have to whisper. Our waiter talked normally and guests did too, which surprised me for a minute.. but was nice that we could talk freely and my 9 year old that came to dinner was on very good behavior. Now onto the food. They do have early bird menus which is why we came early, but the specials sounded good we ordered those and off the regular menu. My dad had seafood sampler, mom had the veal and me and my boy both had steaks; he had fries, I had steak/seafood combo with potato. All of our dinners were terrific. Our bill for the four of us sound that $145 mark minus tip, but felt that the food, service and atmosphere totally warranted that and it being for my parents, was a great evening. I totally recommend this place that is nestled in Surrey Center.
