I thought the dipping sauce was a bit too tangy for my taste.

The panko coating didn't stick to the calamari very well, so it ended up being a bit soggy.

The calamari was a bit too chewy for my taste, but the flavor was good.

This calamari recipe was an absolute hit! The panko coating gave the calamari a wonderfully crispy texture, while the squid remained tender and flavorful. I served it with a tangy tartar sauce and a side of lemon wedges, and it was a real crowd-pleas
