Chef Travis Swikard fell for the flavors of Greece, Spain, Italy, Morocco, the Middle East, and every place along the Mediterranean coastline during his time cooking at iconic French chef Daniel Boulud’s NYC restaurant, Boulud Sud. At Callie he brings the diversity of Mediterranean cuisines together with the ingredients and terroir of the greater San Diego region, his hometown. Callie puts the farmers, fisherman, and ingredients of the greater San Diego region at the forefront, and blends them with a Mediterranean palette. At Callie, the two come together to create light, bright, and bold flavors. Cuisine du soleil. Callie is greek for ‘the most beautiful.’
