Cala's food is "Bostonian South End" exquisite and the ambiance is "Cheers" casual. Cala's is modern, urban, fresh and up to date with the latest food trends. When you walk through the door, the bartender knows your name, and if he doesn't, chances are he'll know it on your way out.

Cala's is named after founding chef and owner Jeff Cala. His eclectic influences are still baked into the menu, but he has brought in Chef Matt O'Neill - formerly of Daniel in NYC - to further dazzle the palate. Cala's is known for some truly uncommon specials like ostrich, wild boar and antelope. While you're there, don't miss the Flirtini - A Cala's Classic. The new menu is sure to be tantalizing, and will be unveiled at the beginning of November.

Cala's exudes local flavor. The sophisticated yet small town feel is largely to do its consistent clientele. This is the spot where blue collar and white collar come together for good food, good drink and good company. The banquets are actual pews reclaimed from a local church. And the paintings on the walls depict Manchester landmarks by two local artists.

Cala's is an inviting restaurant for families to dine out, friends to catch up and acquaintances to be made. The beers are always cold, the wine pour is never skimpy and the pint size drinks are worth the wait for a much coveted seat at the bar.
