Never reduce calories more than you have. A plateau is where the body is not liking losing weight and tries to hold on to it. If you cut calories more you will initially lose weight but the plateau will return with vengeance next time.
You can either as stated above:
1) suck it up and keep on trucking. Eventually you will start to see it shift again.
2) take a 1 or 2 week mini break. by this its not free for all, more a controlled over eat. do you daily food as you are now but maybe add 1 more meal or increase your fruit/veg intake to give you about 500cals a day more. you may gain between 2-3 pounds in 2 weeks. but for most people on here that is nothing. Make sure all extra caloires are good nutritional calories and not empty ones.
3) Change up your plan. add more exercise and more calories.
