About
Walking into Poor Calvin's, you're hit with the smell of Thai spices mingling with Southern comfort. This Midtown spot blends Asian fusion with a Southern twist, serving up dishes that draw from both traditions. Everything from the savory entrees to the desserts is made in house, including the striking Suspension Cake and Fuji Apple.
It's a dinner-only affair, open until 10pm most nights and 11pm on weekends. Sundays start at 3pm, so you can catch an early supper. The crowd here is a mix of locals and visitors, and the vibe is polished but not stuffy. If you're exploring Midtown, nearby Mary Mac's Tea Room offers a more traditional Southern experience.
