    We stopped in for a late lunch that flowed into a happy hour ​with Cuba libres and caipirinhas. The food was great, and walking off 39th Street into a place with an old-Cuba vibe and a Chinese twist was a welcome surprise. We loved ​the Chinese-Cuban mix of things, like the Cuban sandwich spring rolls and papas rellenas.
    Calle Dao - Bryant ParkResponded on 12 October 2026
    Hi Monica, We love that a late lunch turned into a leisurely Happy Hour with Cuba Libres and caipirinhas. It's especially nice to hear that you enjoyed the old Havana atmosphere and our unique blend of Cuban and Chinese flavors, especially the spring rolls and papas rellenas. Thank you for spending part of your day with us, and we hope you'll stop by again the next time you're near Bryant Park. Warmly, The Calle Dao Bryant Park Restaurant Team

    We enjoyed brunch before seeing a show. We tried several different items on the menu (Hash, noodles, spring rolls, and croquettes). All were nice little twists on the dish with great flavors, well prepared, served hot. The highlight was actually the name sake Mojito which was outstanding. While $20 is a big number for a cocktail, this is a BIG cocktail and delicious. Very friendly staff and would definitely go back.
    Calle Dao - Bryant ParkResponded on 6 October 2026
    Hi Jay, What a wonderful way to enjoy brunch before a show. We're so glad you loved the Mojito and appreciated the flavors across everything you tried. Thank you for the kind words about our team and for taking the time to share your experience. We'd love to have you back next time you're in the area. Warmly, The Calle Dao Bryant Park Restaurant Team

    A little pricey for what we got. Appetizers were very good and some of my guests enjoyed their food, the paella in particular. I had the ropa vieja noodles and didn’t care for them. Too bland. Need some spice.
    Calle Dao - Bryant ParkResponded on 5 October 2026
    Hi Mauricio, Thank you for joining us and for sharing your feedback. We’re glad the appetizers and paella were enjoyed, but we’re truly sorry the ropa vieja noodles were disappointing. We only wish we had known while you were with us, as we never want a guest to leave unhappy with their meal and would have gladly prepared something else for you to enjoy. We hope you’ll give us another chance the next time you’re near Bryant Park. Warmly, The Calle Dao Bryant Park Restaurant Team

    Delicious meal. Greate value for the price. Servers were very attentive and got us in and out in a timely fashion. The cauliflower appetizer was amazing! We also had the empanadas and kale salad with chicken (which was roasted to perfection). Highly recommend.
