Relaxed, very casual, great spot for fresh seafood. Hidden gem in Pompano but not open weekends - just private parties.

I'm a firm believer in "if it ain't broke don't fix it!" we've been to calypso 3 times in the week we've been on vacation here! My dad lives in the neighborhood and showed us this little gem. All 3 of us have been in the restaurant biz for years and this has been one of our favorites. The staff... More

Been coming here for years. Start with the Jerk wings (they are really spicy so be careful) and grilled conch. Their signature dish is called the Calypso Cutter sandwich which is a hollowed out kaiser roll filled with sauteed shrimp, garlic, parsley, mushrooms and cheddar cheese that is then broiled to melt the cheese.

The conch salad, the grilled squid, the fried large scallops, the double coconut pie, the fried plantains, the potato salad, heck even the dinner salad (with ginger dressing) and steak fries were great. The grilled squid was cooked perfectly, the scallops were so sweet and both tasted fresh. Only drawback is... More

Calypso is a small restaurant in a strip mall. They aren't even open on the weekend. The food is inventive and fabulous! We started with smoked Kingfish presented with capers and toast strips, and lots of other delicious things to pile on the toasts with the fish. My husband had an amazing pork tenderloin dish with black beans and other... More
