Welcome to Where Family Meets Flavor!

Chef Jose is cooking on a stovetop in a commercial kitchen.

Led by Chef Jose Calzada and his wife Carol, with support from their children, the Calzada family offers decades of hospitality experience — and a passion for crafting memorable dishes in every meal. With roots in the park and recipes inspired by Chef Jose’s European culinary training, Calzada’s Kitchen is more than just a café — it’s a culinary experience grounded in tradition, creativity, and community.

Welcome to Calzada’s Kitchen, where family meets flavor! Nestled inside the iconic Culp’s Café at Carillon Historical Park, Calzada’s Kitchen is a family-run restaurant and catering business that blends timeless American brunch favorites with fresh, modern flavor.
