Great Moussaka Fig salad Other items looked great as well BYOB a plus Decent atmosphere
The moussaka was the best I've ever had. I was already planning my next trip back to the restaurant for more moussaka even before I was finished with my meal. Pita and hummus were very good. Good choice for vegetarians. Amazing fig and goat salad. Everything we ordered was fresh with the exception of the chocolate cake. Our waitress was sweet and patient. Moderately priced, very eclectic ambiance. The one disappointment we had was one of our desserts was still half frozen. Definitely will return :)

Everything about our lunch experience was exceptional!! This restaurant is a true gem...excellent service, fine menu, delicious, fresh food, made with care and presented so beautifully. On this day our gracious server was also the chef!! He was quite remarkable!! We enjoyed our quiet table on the second floor balcony seating. Looking forward to returning soon!!

We went here tonight for my birthday(8 people in our party). This place is so cute! The food was fantastic. Everyone absolutely loved it! I’ve never seen so many cleaned plates. The waitress was so sweet. This is my new favorite spot! We are definitely coming back.Kid-friendliness: My kids loved their food! It was a great experience

Giving it 2 stars because the service was fine. The restaurant itself smells like cooking oil, you are hit in the face with it as soon as you walk in. The food was subpar and overpriced. Baklava was the worst I've ever had, not edible. Was really disappointed because the reviews were decent. Will not be back and will be annoyed about that hundred dollars for days. I'm starting to think this is just a thing with Skippack restaurants- grossly overpriced, subpar food.

So this quaint little Skippack based restaurant is, for some reason listed on line as being in Schwenksville. its not...slightly confusing. Anyway the reviews speaking about the high quality of the food were spot on. We dined with as a party of four and every dish was veery well executed with a very nice portion. The food was served in a timely manner and portions were very good. The service was attentive but not pesty. The restaurant itself is a very quirky affair. The tables for this Mediterranean gem are upstairs in a Bavarian themed building. Prices ere modest, especially for a byob. So, very good food, good service and its a BYOB. Win, win, win.

Food is amazing & friendly service! Me and my wife got the Lamb Shank & Shrimp & Feta Orzo. Totally loved the atmosphere & service. Would definitely be back! Thanks for the wonderful experience!
What a lovely meal. We had wanted to try Calypso because we really enjoy Mediterranean food. Our expectations were exceeded. From the salad to the entrees to dessert, we were so pleased . We look forward to returning very soon.

Our evening at Calypso began well - we were promptly seated and given menus. Our waitress brought water, wine glasses, and then came back to take our orders. The hummus appetizer arrived soon after and was not only very tasty but generously sized. After that the evening went downhill. After about 30 minutes the waitress informed us our entrees would be ready soon. After another 20 minutes had passed, I inquired again, and she said they'd arrive in 10- 15 minutes. She admitted there was a problem but didn't elaborate on what it was. She asked if we'd like some bread to tide us over, that was appreciated. We ended up waiting over an hour for our entrees. I truly think the chef forgot our order, because we saw another table that arrived after us received their entrees well before us. Not only was nothing offered to compensate us for their mistake, but when we got the bill we saw a $5 charge for the bread! We didn't say anything because at that point we just wanted to leave, and we didn't see anyone to speak with anyway. No one ever came to ask us how everything was. I don't blame the waitress as she was new, it's clear they need a manager who actually cares about service. All in all, a very disappointing experience, our first time there will probably be our last.
A lovely restaurant for an intimate dinner. Our server was gracious and attentive. The menu was inviting and made it difficult to pick one thing. A bit of a wait for our entrees, but worth it. Salads, entrees, dessert...all delicious!! This was our first visit, but will definitely return!!

Delicious food. We had the bass, lamb shank, and shrimp. While the food took time to prepare, we enjoyed hanging out, drinking wine and catching up with friends. An unexpected and yummy find in Skippack.

Absolutely a disgrace! Spent $380 on dinner for 5ppl. The order was not correct and the person argued to say that was what I ordered. No pita bread with the 3 orders of hummus. One dinner had a hair in it. What a joke. I will make sure no one I know goes to this dump!

The food and service is amazing! Highly recommend!! We started with the Mezze platter. Our main entrees were the lamb shank, sumac crusted steak, salmon, and chef's special shrimp and lobster. Finished our meal with peanut butter explosion dessert. What a great dining experience!
