Cali - Brandon - Hot & crunchy with ahi tuna - New American Near Me - Riverview, Florida

At a shopping center in Riverview is Cali. It is very modern looking inside with high top tables outside. It has a nice overhang that keeps you cool during the hot weather. The service is amazing. The staff was attentive and helpful. I wish the food was better. I was in the mood for a salad. The first disappointment was that they only gave 3 choices. I am on a gluten free diet and didn't have a problem with that. I did have a problem with the fact that 2 out of 3 salads had cheese in it and is not for someone who adheres to a dairy free diet. Yes, I could have asked if the cheese could be left out. But these salads had multiple kinds of cheese. I never wanted to be that person who asks to leave out half of the ingredients because of dietary restrictions. I would have had to do that. Maybe the answer is the choice to have a custom salad for people like me. The second disappointment was that the salads had a price without any protein. When you added one of the proteins, the salad became very expensive. This was a huge turnoff. The last disappointment was the ice tea. Although there were 3 choices, two of them had ingredients to which I am allergic. The third choice had caffeine. There was really no choice other than to drink water. I chose the restaurant because it was midway between us and friends. I looked at ratings and the number of stars when I travel out of town. This was not really what I expected. read more

Great food! Open concept dining - bright and airy feel. Limited space to wait for a table if on a waitlist. Service was great. Will definitely be back to try more - perfect lunch spot. read more

My only must-do restaurant every time I am back in the Tampa area. Never disappoints whether ordering takeout out or dining in. We opted for carryout for Mother's Day as we anticipated the crowds for brunch and Mother's Day. Online ordering makes customization easy and pickup, even with the crowds was relatively easy. Everyone enjoyed their meals! read more

If you're looking for healthier meals with options to modify... this is your place. Never do I feel bad for why I ordered after eating here. We eat here every month either through take-out or dine-in. It's not a large restaurant, but we've never had issues with getting a table in or outside. I recommend trying adding their popcorn chicken, chickpea bites and their lime Caesar salad with your order! read more

Cali - Brandon - Thai - DF PB - New American Near Me - Riverview, Florida

I've gotten a few items from Cali before along with the restaurant chain and I have not been disappointed. I can't remember the name of the bowl I got this time but it contains steak, spaghetti, squash, noodles, beans, corn, avocado and turmeric rice. It was delicious! The only downside was that I felt like they were very skimpy on the steak and if I had known how little I would get, I would've tried to get a different option. The cookie was also bomb, but it is definitely overpriced for just one cookie. I ordered this through DoorDash, so I cannot comment on the service, although when I have gone in the past, it has been very friendly. read more

LOVE me some Cali! They always hit the mark with the flavors Andi always leave impressed and satisfied. I recommend their Fresca's. All of them are super flavorful and delicious. Their pizzas are so good and all their bowls/salads hit the mark. I can truly say with confidence that there is nothing bad here. If you're in the area and looking for some good food, you definitely need to stop here. read more

A place like home. Cali is a go to favorite. It's close to home and has great vegan options. The food is always so fresh and clean tasting. Portions are great, as I always have food to bring home. The appetizers; guacamole and hand cut fries are fabulous. They have some new drinks, the functional cold brew is a delicious clean wake me up drink. They also have a dragon lemonade which is so refreshing and light. Tastes like summer. My go to bowls are the spicy Brazilian and the Thai bowl. I add the chickpea bites as the perfect protein substitute. They are also really lenient about making other substitutions me avoiding/removing dairy products from the meal to make it vegan. The only thing I wish they still made was the vegan pizza. It was my first meal at Cali about 4 years ago. If they could bring that back this place would be the perfect vegan experience. read more

Discovered this place while looking for healthier options. It was fairly empty for a Monday afternoon, we were immediately seated upon entering. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. We ordered the Cali wrap , classic pizza and the dragon fruit lime drink and the hibiscus drink Both the drinks were good but maybe a little too watered down. My Cali wrap was DELICIOUS! Fresh, crispy and flavorful The pizza was always yummy, very light and buttery overall just yummy! All of this cost $43 I was pretty shocked and expected it to be much more. We were given 2 free cookies for it being our first time, I don't think they normally do that lol but grateful to taste them. Both the chocolate chip cookies were yummy and also fresh. Looked like the bowls were very popular from what I seen on other tables, I will definitely visit again soon. read more

Fresh, healthy, delicious... service was great. We sat outside for a late lunch, definitely recommend.

Visiting Winthrop Christmas market and craving a Cali pizza. We ordered lavender ginger Frescas and a margarita pizza with charred chicken. Been dining here since they opened a decade ago and it never disappoints. Services is always impeccable and food is delicious. I love the bright airy openness of this place and they have live music today. Alex was our server and she was an all star! read more

I've gone for lunch twice and I've had great experiences with the food and the staff. The staff is always very friendly and you can tell they care.

Cali - Brandon - Brazilian bowl - New American Near Me - Riverview, Florida

Our friends and I ordered take out from Cali and had a really great experience all around. It started with the service. We were about to order online but had some questions about the vegan options. We spoke with the manager and he answered all our questions. Feeling confident about what to order, we placed the order online. After I placed the order, I realized that I didn't change the time of pickup and it defaulted to an asap pickup. So I gave them another call, spoke to the manager, and he let us change our pickup time. Our friends went to pick up the food so I couldn't tell you much about that experience but I was told that the atmosphere and decor is very coastal and relaxed. We ordered the Taco Family Pack which comes with 12 tacos, 4 cookies, chips, guac, and salsa. It's a legit deal for $62 and we get to pick 4 of their taco options. I had the Planta and even though it's the only vegan taco options, it's a very delicious option! It comes with chickpea-lentil fritters, guac, pico de gallo, vegan cheese, and vegan lime sour cream. I was pleasantly impressed. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/cali-brandon-riverview?select=TvSQLIiCm4kBwR-3-YMX4A Solid meal! I would gladly eat here again. read more

I discovered this spot during a recent road trip while searching for a healthy-ish place to stop for lunch, and we ended up loving Cali! It was the perfect place for a quick, yummy lunch and a nice clean place to feed the baby before getting back on the road. I got the Hot & Crunchy bowl (cucumber-jicama slaw, scallions, soy sauce, guacamole, tempura onion, sesame seeds, sambal aioli) with the suggested protein - seared ahi tuna and the coconut avocado rice as my base. Wow, this bowl was amazing and so flavorful. The ahi tuna was perfectly seared and the crispy tempura onions on top added a delicious crunch. My husband got the Soo... Buff bowl (roasted cauliflower, coconut buffalo sauce, celery, crumbled blue cheese, tempura onions, lime caesar, fresh herbs) with crispy chicken and coconut avocado rice as well. He really enjoyed the flavor combinations, especially the sauce paired with the blue cheese. We also got their cucumber mint agua fresca to drink and it was so refreshing --I drank two glasses. The service was friendly and super quick which we appreciated. I was happy to learn that they have 3 local locations in the Tampa Bay area, so we'll definitely be back! read more

They always do a really good job with the flavors and seasoning at this location. The restaurant is spacious and beautifully accented with live plants. The server was pleasant and knew the menu enough to make recommendations. Parking was pretty easy as the location shares a parking lot with multiple other restaurants. Food came out quickly as it wasn't busy. Bathroom was clean and maintained. They have indoor and outdoor seating options. read more

The service is incredible! I arrived early not knowing they hadn't open yet, and naturally the door was locked. Before I could turn around, a gentleman opened the door and told me I could come on in regardless if they hadn't opened yet (green flag). He was super accommodating and so was my waitress, I had the steak and egg bowl with turkey sausage on the side which was delicious! To drink, I paired my meal with a cucumber mint agua fresca (recommended by the waitress out of all agua frescas) and it was incredibly refreshing. The place has a very calming, fresh feel to it and good choice of background music. They know what they're doing, and I'm definitely coming back! read more

One of my favorite spots to go to. Guaranteed to ALWAYS have a delicious and filling meal and I've never had bad service. Indoor and outdoor seating, booths and tables, the restaurant is so cute and well decorated, and the staff all seem to care about their jobs. The bowls are amazing. Favorites are the fajita bowl and Brazilian. The steak quesadilla is also delicious. The flavors on everything are just curated to be delicious. Don't leave without a warm fresh baked s'mores or chocolate chip cookie. read more

Whoa. This place was so good! This place has the same owners as fresh kitchen and the restaurant is vegan and vegetarian friendly. All fresh locally sourced food that is flavorful and absolutely delicious. The so buff bowl is the best. I got it with the crispy chicken. So good. If it's your first time there they give you a cookie and the S'mores cookie is OMG good. Taylor was our server and she was awesome. Very knowledgeable and guided us in the right direction. The max mimosa was amazing with the peach puree. The restaurant looks like it's an order at counter experience but you can sit and have a server take your order. The restaurant is clean and they have outdoor seating. Over all my experience was amazing and i will return. read more

We enjoyed a nice late lunch at Cali recently, a quieter time of day. We began with an appetizer of crispy tortilla chips and savory guacamole (with a slight kick)! Then we shared a Wild Shroom pizza and the Lean n Clean bowl. The pizza is a new fav for me, as the texture of the mushrooms and the flavor of the olive oil really hit the spot! I enjoy lots of varieties of pizzas, but it is rare to find such a tasty and crave-able tomato-free pie! The bowl was just perfection - the rice was fresh and tasty, the chicken was seasoned just-right, and the fresh herbs pushed the flavors to a whole new level! Thank you for a lovely lunch. We will definitely be back for a brunch soon!! read more

Came here on a Sunday morning and it was the cutest place ever. Very clean but also trendy so it was inviting. I ordered the Mexican bowl (gf) with the suggested chicken and it was great! Perfect portion too, I was full but not stuffed. As someone who always craves bowls -- this place is my dream restaurant! I only wish I was closer so I could come here all the time. If I'm ever in the area again I'm coming here!! Service was great too we had a server who was attentive. read more

My wife and I probably eat takeout from Cali Brandon at least once a week.

Amazing! I am totally in love with this place and hope they expand all over the US. Vegan, vegetarian, fish, and meat options. Something for everyone flavor wise too. I got the So Buff bowl on field green and it was delicious. I also got a side of the chickpea lentil bites (like mini fritters) with peanut aioli and those were delicious. I'll probably have to try the Thai bowl next time. Our server was especially nice and didn't mind answering all my annoying questions since it was our first time in. Thanks so much! read more

Super healthy food...Everything on the menu is excellent. Wraps, pizza and bowls are the main stays here. Wait staff provided good recommendations. Went with the avocado hummus appetizer, which was good but pricey @$9.50 for what you get. And there wasn't enough items to dip all the hummus up, even when halfing most of them. Quality was good though. My favorite is the Mexican bowl and normally add chicken for around $4. A great combination of items that are Mexican based including black beans, queso, pico de gallo, guacamole, lime sour cream and salsa. It isn't too spicy either. And it's gluten free, like a lot of things Cali offers. Service was good. Multiple staff members helped us. Ambiance: Sort of a weird setup inside. It's almost like they just opened and haven't figured out where to put the tables. Inside and outside seating allows you to enjoy some fresh air, although the view is of Bloomingdale Ave., a busy road. Tip: there is a Publix in the adjoining complex if you need a grocery run after your meal. read more

I'm gonna be honest with this one. I have had Cali several times and it's very mediocre nothing special. The food is actually bland and just not outstanding. Whenever my coworkers go I'm always hesitant to go because well I'm never happy with my order. I've gotten wraps, bowls, tacos and even the pizza and always get let down. Today coworkers wanted Cali and every part of me wanted to say no. It can be pricey and not enjoying the meal hits me wrong. We ordered takeout and I decided to order a Fajita Bowl as I was starving. This is where the good review comes in - My Fajita Bowl was delish! The steak was cooked to perfection, the flavors of the salsa and guacamole was amazing. Only complaint was the brown rice was a bit crunchy but it wasn't terrible. I was super satisfied with my meal. While we order take out we have visited the site many times - The ambiance is always bright, clean, and earthy. I love that it's not always crowded just enough to hear yourselves and there's outside seating. There's plenty of spaces for parking and it's in a nice location. Maybe I'm a bit picky, don't just judge on my experience check it out yourselves and let me know what you think. After today I may try them a bit more of Just stick to fajita bowls! read more

The service is phenomenal here. I ordered the Brazilian and the menu was flexible enough to adjust my protein and base to serve my dietary needs. The sauce has a little kick to it so the server made a good call to suggest that it would be on the side. I was never rushed through my dining experience and was even given a new to go water to take with me. It is definitely on my must visit list. read more

I couldn't get enough of the warm perfectly crisp tortilla chips and the green tomatillo sauce. I'm going back just for that. Yum!!!

Stoped yesterday for a late lunch, another great meal. This place is a hidden gem, food is always great, service is wonderful and this place is spotlessly clean. My only issue is the lighting could be a little brighter. The menu is on a dark background and with very little lite ya need to struggle a bit to read without breaking out my I phone flashlight. Don't let the dim light stop ya, go for it you be very happy. read more
