AMAZING!!! Food and service is incredible! The owner is amazing and Morgan is amazing server!! We will be back! Get the tiger steak and the coconut shrimp! You won't be disappointed all the drink we're just as amazing read more

This is my first time at Callisto and it is phenomenal to say the least. Cozy, luxury vibe with reasonable prices. Braxton, the hospitality director, is fantastic! He made us feel so welcome. Morgan, our server, was so kind and knowledgeable about the menu. The food and drinks were unmatched! The tiger steak was to DIE FOR! read more

This place has phenomenal food and drinks. The service is top tier, Morgan was great (ask for her). Unbelievable appetizers and entrees. Couldn't have felt more welcome, atmosphere was unbelievable. Braxton did a great job taking care of us as well can't forget about him 10/10 recommend! read more

Do your best to find time to make it here. I'm sure everyone says it, but this is the perfect portal to a tropical get away. The drinks are well balanced, good local beers, and the cauliflower dish is INCREDIBLE. The specials are really neat as well. I like the historical context you get with each beverage and the staff is attentive and knowledgeable. I used to go to a theme park tiki bar where I grew up, but this makes up for the class and ambiance that was always missing. read more

We were so excited for this place! We visited it around 8pm on 5/16/26. The establishment is gorgeous. You are treated like royalty, even greeted with complimentary champagne. The drink menu is massive and so unique and on theme. The food menu is small and is only small plates but delicious. Service was quick and attentive. We enjoyed our time there. Ambiance 10/10- so fun! Staff 10/10 Food 10/10 Drinks 8/10- too much ice Overall it's a fun place to go if you're visiting Bentonville (we are from oklahoma) read more

The drinks are creative, complicated and delicious. You want to keep ordering them just to see what comes out! Food portions are small, but the flavors are big. Had a special green curry chicken skewer that was spicy, layered, fresh and high quality. The ambiance is unreal. From the secret door to stepping into a tropical oasis with a lounge vibe. Or server, Morgan was friendly, attentive, and had great recommendations and menu knowledge. She even helped us find a breakfast place for tomorrow since we're only here for the night. read more

What a phenomenal experience. To start, the restaurant is hidden away in an art gallery with a fun entrance through a hidden door. Once inside the decor is amazing - full Tiki theme and very well done. The ambiance is perfectly done. We came on a Sunday around 5pm which allowed us to enjoy some of their Happy Hour which runs 4-6pm. Around 6:30 it started to get quite busy so I was glad we came early. We tried many of the cocktails and all of them were better than advertised and the prices were more than fair - all cocktails were under $20. The food was spectacular as well. We had the beef and pork fat skewers, the fried chicken, the shrimp, and the poke (twice). Everything was 10/10 and I suggest if you are in or near Bentonville Arkansas you need to come give this place a try. It isn't cheap but the prices are very fair for what you get. I will definitely be back! read more

Newest and most high end bar/restaurant in town. Their drinks are high quality and well prepared. We even saw our bartender throw out a drink when he sampled it. They care about what they serve here. Ambience is gorgeous and feels like you're in a big city. Perfect place for a date or friends. Reservations are recommended, but don't be afraid to walk in. They usually have space at the bar. New favorite cocktail spot! read more

Lets just say that I came here 2 times in 1 week because I loved my first experience so much! I will say that a reservation is a must but its definitely worth it. This place 100% feels like a speakeasy and the art in the gallery is also beautiful and fun to look at. Once you walk in you get a glass of champagne and its a very nice welcome into the bar. I had made a reservation specifically for the bar but we were seated in a booth. As soon as I mentioned this to the host, they reseated us at the bar. I truly loved the attention to service. The other reason the service was amazing was our bartender Gael (sorry if I spelt your name wrong). He was super generous to share recommendations and trials of drinks we might like. (I ordered the Alphonso Mango drink because of this the next time I came here). Lastly, the drinks are all worth it too! They are nice and spirit forward with fun flavors. None of the fruits feel fake at all which I really like. I genuinely have enjoyed every cocktail I've had here and can't wait to make my way through the menu on my next visits. read more

This place is a guaranteed wonderful experience! The speakeasy location is fun. Upon entrance a small flute of bubbles is presented and the elevated experience begins. The staff are top notch - Gabriel, one of the owners and head mixologist, is able to carry a conversation and create an outstanding cocktail. read more

Had a great experience. Diego was an excellent waiter and was very attentive to my gluten allergy. Because of how severe it is, they weren't comfortable making me the squid, despite it being GF due to cross-contamination. We ended up having both the pork belly and steak kabobs. We absolutely loved the pork belly! read more

Callisto - Enjoying the Tropical Derby. It's a great drink if you don't like sweet. - Tiki Bars Near Me - Bentonville, Arkansas

If you're a local- you've probably heard the rumors about the hot new speak easy vibe bar in downtown Bentonville. All the great things you're hearing? Absolutely true. This place is AMAZING. Midnight art gallery turns into the most welcoming hidden bar. The staff is all very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. The food and drinks are top tier. The menu offers a wide selection, and I haven't met a drink or bite I haven't loved. If you're local or visiting - I highly recommend trying Callisto. I always recommend making a reservation online to ensure an open seat. 10/10. read more

Good staff, good drinks (my piña colada was nice), gorgeous atmosphere. Looking forward to returning and trying more of the menu.

The long awaited Callisto visit! Love the idea of a late night gallery/speakeasy for this sleepy little town! It's refreshing to have a reverse happy hour option as well. The gallery attendent was super accommodating as we had a last minute add to our party. The drink menu is extensive and while I appreciate many options, it became hard to make a decision when 80% of the menu is variations of a tiki drink. I truly enjoyed my selection in cocktail and was able to sit back, cozy up, and enjoy the midnight beats. No DJ was present during my reservation time, but I see the potential. The vibe was very low lit, velour and soft, with heavy wooden accents. The only weird part was the back alley exit...I can see that being an issue eventually. Overall, it was a strong 4/5 experience for me and looking forward to coming back for the food! read more

I fell into this place during a business trip to NWA. A friend and I were blown away by the vibe, drinks, and staff. Our server Cameron was extremely attentive and knowledgeable on both the drinks and food menu, funny too. He was also from New York. A fun escape with an integrated storyline. I enjoyed a drink in a smoke-filled treasure box. How could you not enjoy that! The food was also very good, small plates with big flavor, we ordered several to share. Don't miss this star in Bentonville. read more

Beautiful experience. You are entering an art gallery with LOCAL artist before you're brought to this dim lit restaurant in the back. The service was incredible, everyone was so sweet and VERY attentive. This food is so delicious. I got the crab rangoons & the steak skewers! The portions are smaller than usual but to me was perfect since I went for the drinks! The drinks are made so beautifully with so much detail I can't wait to be back! read more

Such a cool bar! Reservations are highly recommended! When I walked in, I didn't feel like I was in Bentonville anymore! I cannot wait to explore this bar some more! The Gilded Merchant reminded me of a smoothie. It was really refreshing and a little thicker because of the banana used. The Java Hai is basically like your expresso martini!

This speakeasy had a great atmosphere. It had a mid century look and feel. We went here for our 43 wedding anniversary. We were met with a glass of champagne. We had 3 guys who were friendly and served us well. They were James, Denver and Ben. They were great. Trebuchet gave us great recommendations. We had already eaten so we had the popcorn, amazing! I highly recommend this place. Make reservations, you have a better chance of getting in. read more

Absolutely Amazing. Favorite place to take friends for drinks and tapas. Great service, very cool atmosphere. The menu is very good.

5 stars for the art....but that's as far as we made it. Don't make the trip here as a walk-in and expect to get in. Have a reservation. My wife and I were turned away as the space was "completely booked." read more

Art gallery is cute, ambience of the restaurant was nice. Otherwise, my friend and I had a questionable experience when we went to have a drink for my birthday after work this week. (My girl is in the service industry and I've bartended in the past. So, this experience was strange enough for me to write a review.) We were seated at the bar and ordered a rum flight and tasty cocktail. There was an older gentleman that obviously had some drinks in him that came over and was super chatty. We engaged in conversation, excused some of his behavior and he was nice to order myself a birthday drink and my friend one, also. The man got louder over time but again, he had been there for a bit. After a while, I look up and the manager looked at me and mouthed "are you ok?" I let her know we were fine and proceeded to ask the gentleman to sit instead of stand because obviously he was making a bit of a scene. I ordered myself another of the "birthday drink" (since it was delicious.) The gentleman ended up leaving (I also asked if he was ok to drive) and we asked for our checks shortly after. The bartender proceeded to tell us that he hadn't put alcohol in the drinks after our initial order since "they were looking out for us" which we both were confused by because we hadn't been there long and (come to find out, had 1 beverage) and weren't the drunk ones. But ok, we appreciate the concern...even though that's a little deceiving. I asked the bartender why he didn't put alcohol in the second drink I ordered personally and it was a similar answer. They put the beverage on my friend's tab when she reminded them that she hadn't ordered it, which they took off since the gentleman had already placed a $50 bill in the bartender's hand and had asked to make sure he didn't owe anything before he left, as well. So, point being: *If you are concerned with a female's wellbeing or if someone has had too much to drink, control the primary source of the issue. read more

Callisto is my favorite bar in town and even when I travel I haven't been able to find a place that compares. Everything from the drawn menu items to the cute glassware is beyond expectation.
