I went here with a group of friends for a bachelorette party and we had the best time! The food and drinks were amazing, and we had fun dancing afterwards. The music was great and it was fun to dance with other groups of bachelorette parties! Really positive fun vibes all around. The servers were fantastic as well and I especially have to give Esteban a shoutout! I lost an earring while dancing and he said he’d keep an eye out for it, and then texted me when he found it and was super helpful coordinating with me to get it back. I really appreciate him going the extra mile to help out with this!

Dinner at Calissa in Water Mill feels like a mini escape to the Aegean, great summer vibes. I think it’s inspired by restaurants in Mykonos, and the vibes live up to that. The zucchini chips with tzatziki are a must. For mains, the branzino is a standout—we ordered two for the table and shared. It was light, flaky, and perfectly cooked. The service is warm, and the Greek wine list is impressive for the Hamptons. It definitely gets busy on weekends, especially Friday and Saturday nights. I also liked that the vibe was elevated but not stuffy. 10/10 will be back. My only complaint was that the bathroom line was a little long. But defiantly one of my new summer favorites.

The ambiance was great and so was the service. We were disappointed that both steaks came out more cooked than we would have preferred, we ordered MR. For 48 each, were thought they were pretty bland and forgettable. Not to the point of complaining because we were hungry but it could have been better. By contrast, the apps were fantastic, specifically the octopus and the yellowfin crudo, I thought both were amazing and I don't typically like seafood. The avocado tzatziki was also memorable. I love an espresso martini but I thought this version was a little too bitter or coffee forward, it needed better balance.

Went to this venue/restaurant for a Gorgon City concert. Great atmosphere very intimate small crowd, the venue was in tents outside, but it was not grungy in any way and the atmosphere was very tropical. Crowd was great. Drinks were incredible, they serve pitchers of certain drinks, including margaritas, which is what we got, and it was very good. Didn’t get the food so I can’t read it but we did snack on some french fries and they were great lol

Calissa Hamptons is a true find. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed by the friendly staff, and the atmosphere struck the perfect balance between casual and elegant—just right for a night out. The food at Calissa really shines. The Lobster Pasta was a standout, rich, flavorful and satisfying, while the Tuna Crudo was incredibly fresh and delicate. The Salmon was perfectly cooked and full of flavor, and the Zucchini Chips? Crispy, light, and impossible to stop eating. Pair those with their dip spreads and warm pita, and you’ve got a winning combination. It’s rare to find a place where every dish hits the mark, but Calissa managed to do just that. Whether you're a regular or it's your first visit, you’re in for something special here.

My sister and I had an amazing time at Calissa this weekend. They were able to accommodate my two-year-old niece and our waiter went above and beyond to make sure she had a nice night. We sat in the inside dining area which was beautiful with lots of colorful decorations to play "I Spy" with! We started out with tzatziki and kafteri dips. Both were insane and we had enough to bring home to snack on later! We split the avgolemono soup and it had a lot more sustenance than I'm used to, but it was perfect and is now a new favorite style. My niece had the spanakopita and Greek fries for dinner and ate both up which is quite the compliment. My sister opted for the chicken souvlaki platter and said she loved it. I had the perfectly cooked salmon with a side of sauteed Horta greens and I'm still thinking about it. We finished our meal off with some baklava (which I've been craving for months) and it met every expectation I had. Overall Calissa is a lovely place to have a meal with family and friends, no matter their age!

What can I say? One of a kind. This place is top notch. The staff, amazing! The food, best Mediterranean dishes I've had! The drinks were fresh and tasty. I recommend the swordfish and salmon. Leek rice was so good. Mexican drink was good! Tell 'em Barsnobs sent ya.
