Vegetarian or Vegan?

Please check out our Vegan Menu Options Iconicons on the menu for our numerous vegan options.

Calypso is the perfect place to satisfy both meat-eaters and vegetarians. Our Black Bean Salad with rice is a huge hit with vegetarians, and our Beans and 3 plate gives you a sampling of our variety of side items. Except for some of our soups, all our side items are vegetarian, and most are also vegan (Vegan items clearly marked with icon on menu). We can also customize items for you…Vegans LOVE our Homemade Veggie Burger on 100% whole wheat sandwich round or hearty Black Bean Salad with rice and no dairy…yum.

Low Fat or Low Carb?

Trying to lose body fat? Low Fat continues to deliver results.

Please check out our Low-Fatheart icons on the menu for our numerous low-fat options

Choose the approach you can sustain!

We are all reading about nutrition… the rules seem to change daily! It can be confusing, but Calypso has served the Nashville area with the same healthy dishes for almost 30 years throughout countless diet trends. No question, eating a high fiber diet rich in protein, nutrients, and colorful produce is good for you, but you also need to satisfy your desires… you deserve to enjoy your food!

You will see our ingredients over and over again in health-related columns: lean chicken, beans, tomatoes, onion, green leaf lettuce (never iceberg at Calypso!), fresh fruit, mustard greens, sweet potatoes, corn, cabbage, carrots, almonds, tuna, etc. We also use generous amounts of spices known to have countless health benefits including garlic and peppers. Many items can be tailored to fit your needs: vegans often order the Black Bean Salad without dairy or we can make this fantastic salad low-fat and lower in calories by taking away the chips and dairy. Our legendary Lucayan Salad can be trimmed down by substituting the Lite Vinaigrette dressing (but don’t cut the almonds, THEY’RE SO GOOD FOR YOU!). Best of all, even with these modifications, you will not be hungry!
