What User doesn't like about Kali:
The food taste was ranging from disgusting to bland. The pinot noir tasted like vinegar, the Grenache was tolerable. Forcing the customers to put on that ridiculous mask stickers on their clothing was an absolute circus: why do you need to put on a sticker on your chest if you already have a mask on your face? We barely touched the food, payed for people and left hungry View all feedback. What User likes about Kali:
A great meal back inside a beautiful restaurant. The dishes were all well crafted and delicious. The wine was outstanding and the atmosphere was festive without being too much View all feedback.
