Just a question. I'm not a foodie at all but should the batter on calamari be crispy andbrown? Like maybe an onion ring.

It can also be sautéed whole or sliced in olive oil and garlic served room temperature.

Agree with mgh, calamari should be lightly battered and fried to a light golden brown. Can be served with a side of marinara for dipping, or just salted with a lemon wedge on the side.

Toppers always has served it like scubaman said, sautéed. We always really enjoy it there.

I grew up with my mom sauteing it whole the Mediterranean way with garlic and olive oil. Toppers adds a lot of heat but you can tell server to hold the heat. Pretty good that way.
