She was so fun for us (there was 9 of us) and we were entertained the entire time. The vibe is amazing and the quality of cocktails is exceptional. Will obviously be back!”
“Amazing food at a more than fair price! I genuinely enjoyed my overall experience when it comes to flavour and the smiling faces. I will definitely be coming back again!”
“My daughter and I dined at 530pm yesterday, May 24th 2025. We chose to sit in the dining room. We were lead to a table by the fireplace under a great chandelier. The ambiance of Joey Crowfoot is lively and warm. Comfortable seating, perfectly sized tables, and excellent lighting. Our server, whose name I can't recall - tall dark and handsome and a theater major - was attentive and friendly. The food we had was absolutely incredible. We chose goyza dumplings to start which were so flavourful and perfectly cooked. My daughter ordered the hamburger and fries and even with her braces bothering her, she demolished. My blackened chicken with warm potato salad was hands down the BEST meal I've had in a restaurant in a long, long time. I will be dreaming of that salad until I can get back there again !!”
Online Reservation Available
“It was a perfect breakfast for the three of us before we dropped out daughter off at the airport. I had my traditional two eggs over easy with toast sausage and bacon. The two others had some wonderful eggs-benny. My eggs were perfect, the toast was perfect, the bacon was crispy, and the sausages were spicy and succulent, making for a delicious meal. Arlene was wonderful throughout the whole meal so thanks to her especially!”

“Some of the best food I’ve ever had in my life. We ordered at the south Edmonton location (probably more then we needed) but zero regrets! Still dreaming about the spring rolls and the curry! 1000/10! Wishing for an east coast location.”
“This is our first time to dine here but it didn't disappoint us. Food was delicious and Kenny our server is very pleasant and friendly. Would highly recommend this place.”
24 Hour Restaurants
“Tried their Beef Nihari with plain naan and it was really good. Quantity is good too, easily 2 people can charge 1 serving. It’s a 24hrs restaurant which is a plus.”
“To the manager/owner: I’m a regular customer, and the food here is always great — fresh, hot, and consistent. I want to give a big shoutout to Ryan, Khushpreet, and Patricia for their exceptional service at the drive-thru. They’re always fast, friendly, and professional. Please recognize their hard work — they truly make every visit a great experience!”
“I went with my family yesterday after hearing about the quality of the food from my friends. It was an amazing experience. The menu was found to be extensive and you have a wide range of food options. The items were mostly innovative and equally delicious. Must visit this restaurant. Highly recommended. This might be the best Indian restaurant”
“Always a joy to dine at a culinary school, and Highwood did no disappoint! We were seated (after a bit of a challenge locating it on the campus; more signage would be good!) in a quiet corner of the very attractive and welcoming dining room. The cocktails and wine choices were excellent; our entrees of rack of lamb and duck done 2 ways were cooked perfectly. The focaccia could have had much less oil; the center was still a teeny bit doughy. Dessert was light and tasty. Overall a delightful experience for all 3 of us, with very charming service!”
“Today I had the pleasure of trying the Burger and fixins , what caught me was the preparation by the cook, she took such great care stacking each item, centered on the bun, ensuring no messy spill over moving her hands gently over the top bun to ensure complete symmetry, spinning the burger 360 degrees for final inspection and handing it to me with 2 hands. She was very proud of her creation and very kind. I felt special 😀”

“What an amazing restaurant sweet house! Excellent service and delicious food. Sweets by the pound! Love this place!”
“I love this place! I've been going there for years specifically for their pork spring rolls and the best wor wonton in the city! The family there is so great! They always go above and beyond, which is evidenced by the line ups at lunchtime. Highly recommend them! 5 stars from me!”
“We always come to this Pizza Hut because the staff are so friendly, and the pizza is always hot, tasty, and consistently great quality. The ladies here always greet us with a smile and make us feel welcome.
Today, I accidentally ordered the wrong thing (totally my fault!), but the two ladies working were so kind and accommodating, and helped me fix it right away without any fuss. Really appreciate their great service—thank you!”
“Traveling thru Calgary ... hotel recommended Moxies. We used Uber app for delivery. The deliver to address was wrong. We called the restaurant, and they were OUTSTANDING... they spent time to help with sincerity and true customer service. And the food was EXCELLENT ..... can't recommend this restaurant (or its staff) any higher.”
“Fish pakora is divine. Everything at this restaurant is super fantastic. I have never had a bad meal here. It is by far the best Indian food that I’ve ever had.”

“Great Korean BBQ. We enjoyed the Katsu Bowl with a side of Mandu, Bibimbop with a side of Takoyaki (not my fav, but my son loved them), BBQ Bowl, and Dosirock.
Katsu is the family's favorite, but all are tasty. I jangsa'd (upsized) my bibimbop, and it was worth it.
Bathroom was clean.
Highly recommend if you are looking for good Korean BBQ.”
“I am so so lucky to have had the honour of catering from Shawarma Cairo restaurant, the food was amazing, tasty and super organized, and it truly surpassed my expectations! The owners are such wonderful people, and I will be definitely ordering from them again with my eyes closed ! From kufta to rice to pizza to salad to hummus to tahina to shawarma to garlic sauce … everything is top top !! Thank you and keep up the great work and Allah yaatiko saha ?”
“Excellent Italian food prepared by Italians. Welcome place and very kind and professional staff. Excellent pasta and delicious pizza. Average prices. Ottimo cibo italiano preparato dagli italiani. Posto benvenuto e personale molto gentile e professionale. Ottima pasta e deliziosa pizza. Prezzi medi.”
“I came here because of my friend’s recommendation, and they didn’t disappoint me! I tried the halibut claypot, and my friend had the smoked duck claypot. Both were absolutely amazing! The texture and flavor really impressed us. The staff were also very nice; I asked for extra claypot sauce and kimchi, and they brought plenty. Plus, the projector setup was really cool. I’ll definitely come back!”
“Absolutely loved the Veggie Lover pizza from Pizza Hut! 🍕 The flavors were fresh, the crust was perfectly baked, and every bite was delicious. I opted for pickup and the service was super quick and friendly. Staff were courteous and made sure everything was packed well. Highly recommend Pizza Hut for both taste and top-notch service!”

“We've heard great things about Cesar's and you did not disappoint. I'd like to highlight our waistress Micah(not sure how to spell her name). We visited yesterday and was entirely satisfied with our experience. The food was excellent, and Micah was so pleasant and so friendly to our baby. If we ever visit Calgary again, we are definitely coming back to your restaurant.”
“Just when you think they can't raise their game any higher Hy's manages to find a way. We attended the Calgary locations 10th Anniversary Celebration on Sept 26th and it was spectacular. The event was flawlessly organized and orchestrated by the Hy's team, the food was next level even by Hy's standards and the service exceeded anything we have experienced anywhere in North America even in the finest hotels. Bryant Olender added a classic background with piano and vocal stylings that perfectly suited the atmosphere. It was certainly the best evening we have at Hy's over the last decade, and I don't think I'm overstating it to say it was a "Once in a Lifetime" experience. A huge thankyou to Barb and the entire Hy's team!”

“Went with my husband for our first anniversary, I cannot say enough good things about this place! We were given a hand signed card, complimentary bubbly upon arrival, incredible service by all the staff (shout out to our server Tess, you were awesome), delicious food (get the mashed potatoes) and a complimentary dessert. The DJ set the perfect mood too. Everything here was incredible!”
“I went for the first time last night. I was so impressed with the measures the waiter and cooking staff took to ensure I didn't come in contact with my food allergies, the sharing plates concept was brilliant, and the food was delicious. Whenever I'm in Calgary again, I will be returning. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!”
“We had our wedding at Rouge and I can’t express how perfect our day was! The coordinator Rey was absolutely amazing from the very first day I met her up to the day itself. She took the time to answer all my questions (very quickly) and on the day of, she guided us through the process and made us feel so comfortable with everything. The food was amazing, the fresh vegetables and the meat and all the appetizers were to die for! The set up and take down was smooth and they worked with our guests and vendors to make sure everyone had what they needed. Thank you so much to Rey and the entire staff for making my day so special! 🤍”
“In line with the restaurant, I’ve structured to 8 points of my dining experience. 1. RESERVATIONS & GETTING THERE If you’re very lucky you can get a reservation. Watch out for their announcement/s at Instagram and book at TOCK. I got mine in November 2021 for February 2022 dinner. Chef Darren shared that in the latest offering, 36,000 people went in and it sold out in 30 seconds. You will receive an email for dining reservations and included are instructions how to get to Eight. Located at ALT hotel at East Village in Calgary, Alberta. Complimentary underground parking. Be early, reception will send you at NUPO bar before you’ll be invited over to the secret door leading to your seat. 2. FOOD There are no words to describe the gastronomical experience this 15-course dinner (with snacks) offered. All the superlatives can be used. Fall in love with the plethora of Canadian ingredients married into the greatness Chef Darren’s mind. Well intentioned sourcing of fresh local, farm owned ingredients in your plate. Each made great with time whether it’s the reclaimed dairy cow’s beef, cured bacon goodness — it’s clear! (yum) and rich chicken broth. From east to west ingredients, indulge in what each coast brings through texture, colour and scents. It’s a win after win, one plate, one bowl at a time. 3. PAIRINGS Truly recommended to take it! As serendipity has it, it was Season 8 and Eight’s 2nd anniversary. The last pairing of Espresso, Licor 43 was replaced by a Ruinart Blanc de Blanc to celebrate with Chef Darren and his staff. Lucky! 4. AMBIENCE Low light, one bulb overhead per person highlights the food in front of you. Across is a marbled island where the action happens. It’s a cozy distance to chat with other guests to your side and still well-spaced to enjoy your spot (and your date!) Leather bar seats, metal backing art at the corner adds to the mystery feel of the eluded box. 5. STORY TELLING This is a vital part of the dining experience. Chef Darren walks through the history of ingredients and how he came up with the course. Very interesting, heartwarming and funny stories to hear. 6. SYMPHONY The smooth flow of chef, assistants and server movements : cooking, plating, serving timing, wine glass replacement and bread offering is a flawless operations at an optimum (small) space. It is a feat. 7. CERAMICS The handmade, locally made plate counts. The 24 Karat lined cup and the stacked bowl of snacks counts. It’s beautiful. Hello Quinspired Ceramics ✨ 8. INVESTMENT Worth every Canadian dollar. $245pp dinner + $145pp pairing (optional) + 20% gratuity + taxes Ending note: There is a no photo policy and it suits your dinner experience as you’re fully immersed into the story telling and presentation. You are given a small folder, tucked in is the menu + pairing details. Inside the folder is poignant essay of Chef Darren’s thoughts how the Canadian Reflection Menu came about. Take it as poetry! A map of Canada is inserted and handwritten in each province were ingredients used that night. Overall, this was a great experience. Calgary is lucky to have Eight. Well done! Bravo Chef Darren! Now, best of luck to booking a seat!”
“Very high quality Italian food. Service was great it’s best to get a reservation but I was able to get a table last minute”

“We had been looking to replace our ‘go-to’ East Indian option, after our longstanding restaurant sold their business (menu change sadly no longer lived up to expectation.) After venturing to try a few new restaurants, we continued to be met with disappointment. It was then recommended by my physio therapist to try Masala Art. And glad we made the trek on a cold winter Sunday night to support small family owned business. We were met with a gracious welcome. Atmosphere was simple, yet cozy. The service was top notch and very attentive. The samosas were fresh and flavourful, sauces were fresh and the Naan was absolutely classic and hot sizzling of the chef’s station. The veg korma vegetables tasted fresh and leftovers the next day, the flavours melded together even better! The staff and chef were inquisitive to the flavour satisfaction amidst our dining, we felt they picked a suitable spice level for our tolerance and were intuitively precise. I hope to see this business thrive as it is well deserved. I recommend even quantity items of samosa as I have a hard time arm wrestling over the 3rd Samosa, lol.”
“Recently, I had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant for Sohour and was thoroughly impressed. The food was nothing short of amazing, each dish bursting with flavor. The ambiance of the place is perfect for gatherings, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal with friends or family. The staff deserves a special mention for their courteous service, adding to the overall positive experience. What sets this restaurant apart is its unique Egyptian vibe, which adds an authentic touch to the dining experience. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a memorable meal.”
“We’ve been coming to Franca’s for lunch or dinner now and then over the years, and honestly, we’ve never been disappointed. The food is always spot-on, and the gnocchi is hands-down the best in Calgary. Light, pillowy, and full of flavour. The atmosphere is warm and familiar, and Franca herself often pops by to say hello, which makes the experience feel personal in a way that’s hard to find these days. The service is consistently friendly and attentive, without being over the top. It’s one of those places you keep coming back to, not just for the food, but because it feels like part of the community.”
“Love this place and the owner is delightful! Highly recommend visiting there �”
“In my opinion, this is the best sushi place in Calgary. The ingredients are fresh, the presentation is excellent. They make the udon in house and it is much much better than what you get at other places.”
“we are new in calgary and we absolutely wanted to try indian cuisine. we choose Lazeez for its good reviews and we were not disappointed. thank you 😊”
“Wow is all I can say!! Great food! Best Greek food I have had in my 14 years in Calgary! Flavourful Yummy goodness Owners are amazing and friendly pricing on point! Thank you for being the best hidden gem in Calgary!!”
“Every time I remember this store,
I will always recall this cute little heart-shaped paper clip. Lol
Food is decent. Gave 4 stars because of the mango on the sushi that I ordered. The mango should be sweet but the one on the sushi is more on the sour side. But it did not negatively impact our overall experience. Still a sushi place that we will go to when we visit Calgary.”
“Food was outstanding.. staff amazing Service top notch . Took my son and his Mum for his birthday . We were stuffed”
“my fiance and I went here and we were absolutely delighted with our experience at Agni Indian Restaurant! The delectable food surpassed our expectations, and the service was exceptional, especially considering the reasonable prices. Highly recommend!”
“Owens Landing is my go to for quality eats. Love the menu, cocktails, and atmosphere. The best service in Calgary.”
“Great staff, great decor, and amazing food! Always love to come here with my wife and family. This is a great place for parties or a date night and their sister restaurant Ajito is very trendy.”
“We have been here several times. The staff were very friendly and efficient, and the service has been excellent. The food is delectable, tasty, and nicely presented with just the right balance of spices and heat. We just couldn't stop nibbling on the garlic naan bread and tamarind sauce. We were impressed with the cleanliness, the decor, and the pleasant atmosphere. It has become our favourite Indian Food restaurant in the City.”
“when i tell you we had the best experience this time at east side mario’s I MEAN IT!! we had our anniversary date here and were greeted with a phenomenal and kind host and absolutely spectacular server named Fatima!! she was a rockstar and made us laugh on top of that. highly recommend coming to visit!!

“I always want to go there >< I starved today to come for chunjang lol It was so delicious ㅠㅠ A really good sweet and sour pork restaurant;;; Red pepper miscellaneous sauce is so delicious!!!! I recommend Jjambbong more than Jjajangmyeon!!”
“Excelente! me hizo sentir muy cerca de mí amado PERÚ 🇵🇪❤️”
“Food here is absolutely delicious, great portion size and wonderful service. Beautiful place to eat with the Japanese themed decor. The only place I’ve been to in Calgary that I haven’t needed to order a second portion of noodles. And tempura icecream was great!👌”
“Have come here for the last 3 years everytime I visit Calgary. The customer service and quality of food is always great. I am never disappointed and always leave feeling fulfilled.”
“I had dinner tonight at The Himalayan (17 Ave SW). It was my first time here, and only my second Nepalese restaurant I’ve been to. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable and very kind. The restaurant is clean, and intimate. Parking isn’t ideal, but that’s not their fault! I started with the pork momos as an appetizer. They were excellent, but quite expensive ($16 for six regular-sized dumplings). The flavour was great, and they tasted very fresh. For my main, I had Chicken Dal Bhatt, which came with three small dishes of meat and curry and lentils, along with rice, naan and some side dishes. Each of the individual dishes had incredible flavour. They were also hot and fresh, as were the momos. The meal was served on a metal platter, and the small bowls were also metal. It was beautifully presented. As soon as I finished my main meal, the waiter offered me a chai and mango pudding (included in the meal). The chai was aromatic and spicy and earthy and amazing! The mango pudding was icy cold (also in a metal dish), and hit the spot at the end of the meal. For my appetizer and main meal, I opted for mild / zero spice. Everything was so flavourful I don’t regret this decision. However next time, I’ll live a little and try the medium heat. Overall, this was a 10/10 for me and I’m really glad I had the chance to try out this restaurant!!”
“We eat out a fair bit, but this was the best night out I have had in years! Have not been here before, but definitely coming back often. Came here with my wife and one of our friends later on Saturday afternoon for happy hour and got seated at the bar, overlooking the kitchen. The happy hour drinks were very good, and the food was fantastic. We ended up staying for dinner, and every dish was beautifully prepared, tasty and original - not just a variation on something you would get at a restaurant down the street. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. Our waiter provided excellent service. He always knew the right time to check up on us and see if we needed more drinks or food. Nice guy too. I originally was a little disappointed to get seated at the bar instead of a table - now I would not want to sit anywhere else. Loved to watch the skills and teamwork of the kitchen staff, who were very friendly and chatted with us when they had time. Loved everything about this place.”
“one of the best breakfast places I've been to!! recommend 1000% friendly. fast and quality!”

“We hosted our wedding at Marko’s Kitchen and it could not have been more perfect. Zika, the owner, went above and beyond to make sure every detail was taken care of. From start to finish, he handled absolutely everything, which allowed us to relax and truly enjoy our day without any stress. The food was outstanding, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service was flawless. Our guests are still raving about the experience! We are so grateful to Zika and his team for making our wedding day so special. We would highly recommend Marko’s Kitchen for any celebration.”
“We went for dinner and absolutely loved it here. The food was fresh and delicious. The service was excellent! We very much enjoyed the quiet atmosphere, and the decor was pretty. We will definitely be coming back. The prices were very reasonable. Dinner for 2 (including 1 beer!) was only $50+tip.”
“They are so nice I dropped mine made me a new one for free told me don't worry about it 😁”
“The mango smoothie with pearls was hands down delicious! Friendly service,really clean bathroom and super chill vibes! Come out and check this gem of place out! ❤️ Thank you!!”
“Like most of the diners I’ve visited, the Blue Star was fantastic. I had the onion grilled cheese and could barely finish it. My son had the lamb naan and gave it a 10/10. I’ll be back!!!”
“We had an incredible experience at Bridgette Bar. Out of towners, we showed up on a Friday without reservations. They said the only seats they had were at the Chef's Bar. We've never sat at a Chef's Bar but decided to give it a try. What a great time! It was fun watching the cook staff and chatting with them. And the food was outstanding! Great service, great vibe, we had a great time. If we lived in Calgary, Bridgette Bar would be a regular stop!”
“A memorable experience was had with my latest visit. It was a busy Friday night and the staff took care of our table of 4 for dinner and provided us with good service and good food. The experience was memorable because of the level of care and attention to detail that Floor Manager Tait provided us with! He was invested in our dining experience and he was polite and friendly! Thank you Tait and your team for taking care of us.”
“Loved coming here today with my friends and daughter ! Friendly staff and the breakfast was amazing. Even better than the breakfast in Istanbul when I went last year !”
“Went for brunch on a Sat afternoon. Will advise to make reservations online to everyone as place is always busy. We had reservations so almost no waiting when we got there. We ordered multiple things. Crispy chicken, brisket bowl, brioche pancakes and pumpkin spice pancakes. Everything was on point amazing (service, food) their hollandaise sauce is absolutely delicious. Definitely recommend this place to everyone”
“I as well as my family have been dining and having delivery from Bills new location in Calgary for many years. The food for dinner for 2–excellent— added an extra entree with the deep fried shrimp . It was so delicious and so good. We recommend them highly.”
“I recently had lunch in Ishtar Restaurant after. The food was delicious and responding to my needs, personally served by the owner, our friend Bashar and his staff. I especially liked the welcoming ambiance, and the artistic decorative touch. The Restaurant is specifically attracting a social gathering between young friends, families, from different cultures, communicating spontaneously as they were at home. Therefore, combining good food with such social life is, according to me, one of the best assets of Ishtar. Thanks Bashar.”
“Showed up at 11:45 on a Saturday and had no wait. The service was quick and personable, thank you Miller. The food was tasty, eggs done perfectly, the beef while succulent had a missing flavor factor in regards to the different sauces.”
“My wife and I had our wedding reception at The Lake House and it truly was beautiful! The scenery and the elegance of the restaurant itself are incomparable for a wedding venue. From there we go to the food. The food was absolutely delicious and all of of our guests praised the restaurant for the amazing options they were presented along with how absolutely tasty every single bite was. From the appetizers, to the main course, to the dessert and the late night snack, every single bite was spectacular. As we continue on the accommodating and excellence of service go beyond compare. Every step of the way the team at The Lake House catered to what our wants were and offered great advice and options to make sure we landed on the right decision. When spending so much money on everything to do with a wedding it can add up and you want to make sure the value is there and that you’re not over spending on one thing vs. another. They made sure that as costs added up for us elsewhere we really saw the value while still getting an elite, exceptional, beyond compare venue that just took care of nearly everything. My wife and I live busy lives and had a baby shortly after our wedding and have repeatedly told each other since the wedding we truly owe it to the restaurant to make sure we sit down, take time and praise how truly happy we were with our experience in a review so that everyone knows and we can hopefully give them some extra business and help others have as spectacular an experience as us. Since our time there many of our guests have shared how much they loved the experience there and said that they could not think of a better place to have a wedding venue. We do live out of town so we do t get to go back as often as we’d like but our anniversary is just around the corner and we’re very excited to go back to The Lake House to enjoy this day as well. Thank you everyone at The Lake House for sharing our moment with us and making it unforgettable! We truly appreciate you!”
“My second time in Calgary was nothing short of perfection. Last year I dined here for my birthday and when the thought of what to do rolled around this year, flying to Calgary seemed both extra, and hilarious. But it stuck. Saltlik, you outdid yourself. I’ve been thinking of the Beeswax Old Fashioned for 366 days and it just hits the spot. Victoria B.C. hasn’t latched onto it yet but it’ll come. Dinner was exceptional but the real star or the show was Trevor. Exceptional service is becoming an almost lost art and this guy has it. His energetic read on the table and tailored charisma is what 90s career servers were made of. The kind of server who questions himself “how do I elevate this experience?!” And then executes. His tag team with Chris to make this birthday nothing short of Calgary perfection is exactly why we ended up here. Thank you for making us feel special, our dinner incredible and leaving us with yet another Saltlik memory for the books. Thanks over many thanks. We will see you again!”
“Christy and her staff did an amazing job on a surprise retirement party my wife organized for me! Food and beverages were a hit! I highly recommend Gateway Blanco!!!!”
“This place is amazing. The food is top tier, no joke. You will not miss the meat if you’re a meat eater like me. Honestly my go-to for sushi and salad dressings. A gem more people need to know about! Very accommodating for food sensitivities and lifestyles. I wish I could give 10/5 stars. (I don’t have a pic to share bc I gobbled down my meal too fast)”
“This place is always packed but it's so worth it! You can make reservations online on top of the waitlist... so if you plan thoroughly, you'll get to enjoy this amazing brunch spot.
The bowls are always good, you can't go wrong with any of them. We also tried the french toast this time which was so delicious. It was surprisingly not too sweet, and was a perfect brunch option! The asian fusion style dishes are some of my favorite in the city. I have yet to find a brunch place I enjoy more than Namo :)”
“Continuing our exploration of Calgary’s pizza emporia the four of us thoroughly enjoyed Pizza Culture, great service, interesting drink options and excellent pizza, pizzas were hot and thin with thoughtfully paired toppings. Hands down winner was the speck and burrata. Good desserts. Great value, will return to explore the appies menu…”
“To all vegetarians here, just wanted to share with you all that Rajdoot Restaurant Calgary has separate fryers and separate tandoor ovens for vegetarian and non-vegetarian cooking. I know this is a very important criteria for many, specially when parents are visiting Calgary, festive times etc. so thought of sharing.”
“I've just come back to Canada after some years and noticed that Roc's had opened near where my parents lived and wanted to try it - really glad I did! Very delicious food and prompt service - the Halo-Halo was especially delicious! Will definitely be back next time we are in Calgary.”
“Amazing Alberta beef. Exceptional dining. Impeccable service.”
“We ordered as a company for our monthly appreciation lunch. The food was great. Everything I ordered was included. They did mention that their food is slightly spicier but did a pretty good job at making it milder. The only item that was on the spicier side were the beef seekh kababs (they did mention this to me prior, so we knew to expect this). The butter chicken was really great. They were generous with the food portions - we had plenty leftover. Overall, the staff really enjoyed the food. Service was exceptional!”
“I think this is the best sushi I’ve tried in Calgary. Tasty, creative, beautifully presented. Really liked the staff and ambience. Only complaint is that the spicy tuna big roll was really too big to fit in my mouth 🤷🏼♀️”
“Food was amazing! We have to visit Gaucho every time we are in Calgary. Please open a location in Vancouver. Nothing there compares to the Brazilian food at Gaucho. We look forward to our next visit.”
“first time eating here with a diverse group with limited Japanese food experience. mind blown!! beautiful atmosphere, staff were amazing made the 2 birthdays in our group very special. The food was beautifully prepared and tasted amazing! one in our group is a meat and potato's guy but is now a sushi lover! expecting a huge bill at the end of the night but was shocked at how very reasonable the price was for a total of 7 people. Definitely will be back a new favorite restaurant.”
“We went just to try it and loved it! Very pleasant and professional service with no unnecessary invigilation. Very tasty dishes, perfect naan, and delicious Mango Lassi! We will be back for sure!☺️ NE location rocks!”
“Always an amazing experience at blowers in Grafton, friendly staff, great food, excellent atmosphere highly recommend”
“Been going to Chop for a few years now. Love just about everything on the menu. Great for a stop in and grab a good meal or take a friend on a date or celebrate birthday or anniversary. Always good.”
“I love the weekend buffet, try different kinds of dishes. French toast & Salmon eggs Benny were really good. Japa curry wasnt that spicy. Many things for the price of $21.99 is worth it.”

“Great atmosphere, great place to sit and enjoy a coffee, however, last visit the Air Conditioner was on so high, it felt like it was about to snow. Barista said controls were locked. Hmmm. Manager should have access. Only seems logical. Overheard others with same complaint.”
“We’ve been coming to Franca’s for lunch or dinner now and then over the years, and honestly, we’ve never been disappointed. The food is always spot-on, and the gnocchi is hands-down the best in Calgary. Light, pillowy, and full of flavour. The atmosphere is warm and familiar, and Franca herself often pops by to say hello, which makes the experience feel personal in a way that’s hard to find these days. The service is consistently friendly and attentive, without being over the top. It’s one of those places you keep coming back to, not just for the food, but because it feels like part of the community.”
“I have been living in the neighborhood for over 15 years now. I had stopped into Swiggs a few years ago. I did think nay this place is not for me. I had heard about their fish and chips a couple months ago. I thought I would give it another try. I have been totally happy with the service and food now. I almost go in weekly for the steak, fish and chips or wings on their special nights. I am so happy I decided to go in. It is almost a weekly stop now. Thank you so much to the chef Francis - the steaks are awesome. Thank you so much to the Service staff - Justen and Adria. It is always a pleasure to see your smiling faces. Keep up the great job :)”
“It was my mother’s birthday and she turned 91, I called a restaurant and they would not deliver. So I found John Wong’s and they were so pleasant on the phone, they said they delivered and the food came right on time. The food was great. It tasted good, it was hot. And my mom and I enjoyed it immensely! Thank you! We will be sure to ordered again! Highly recommended!”

“I went for the first time last night. I was so impressed with the measures the waiter and cooking staff took to ensure I didn't come in contact with my food allergies, the sharing plates concept was brilliant, and the food was delicious. Whenever I'm in Calgary again, I will be returning. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!”
“We had a large group of 16 that stopped I. For dinner. We were warmly greeted and our orders were presented to us quickly and 100% correct.
The food was outstanding. As was the service. If you are considering a new place for dinner, don’t hesitate! You’re got to try this place!”
“The food is always good at the Keg but our service last night was exceptional unfortunately our servers name escapes my old brain. We were seated in the lounge which is so comfortable and lovely. My only complaint was the noise...TV's were blaring with the baseball game.”
“Abdul did Catering for one of my parties and it was well received excellent by guests Superb presentation food was tasty and large portions! Best Lamb and Chicken Kabobs with sauces and Salads He made sure the Vegan orders were separated and classic presentation! Priced reasonably to fit a budget For a sit down afternoon dinner with family it’s like a feast for a King! Tea and fresh juices offered free of charge! The Falafel melts in your mouth For take out services be sure you will be offered juices while you wait A delightful experience”
“We had an incredibly overworked (they were short staffed this night) waiter who was very pleasant and friendly, and professional. The food was delicious. We were first timers to Smugglers and really enjoyed our food. My only ‘complaint' would be is that they need to make the outside of their door more welcoming. As we had never been to Smugglers, we weren't sure where the main door was.”
“Just when you think they can't raise their game any higher Hy's manages to find a way. We attended the Calgary locations 10th Anniversary Celebration on Sept 26th and it was spectacular. The event was flawlessly organized and orchestrated by the Hy's team, the food was next level even by Hy's standards and the service exceeded anything we have experienced anywhere in North America even in the finest hotels. Bryant Olender added a classic background with piano and vocal stylings that perfectly suited the atmosphere. It was certainly the best evening we have at Hy's over the last decade, and I don't think I'm overstating it to say it was a "Once in a Lifetime" experience. A huge thankyou to Barb and the entire Hy's team!”
“Our group ordered 3 different meats and a not of sides and they were all fantastic. We all enjoyed the cocktails. The servers were friendly and on top of things and the band was good and we loved that it was not so loud that it stopped us from having a conversation! All of us want to go back!!”

“We went to Kujira for a family meal today and everything was amazing! The salmon sashimis were fresh, generous portions, and tasted delicious. All of the sushi rolls were amazing as well and it was not too filling at all. Our favorite has to be the seafoods and their sauces are amazing! We would totally recommend everyone trying it out!”
“First time visitor. Love the ambiance , decor and space. The friendliness and service were impeccable. The food and drink were delicious and unique. I will be back. Loovveee”
“We recently celebrated my daughter’s birthday, and Vibe Breakfast and Grill took care of the outdoor catering—and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment they arrived, everything was handled with professionalism and a warm, friendly attitude. The setup was vibrant and inviting, adding a festive touch to the celebration. The food was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. Guests couldn’t stop raving about the grilled items, especially the juicy chicken and the flavorful wraps. The breakfast spread was also a big hit—freshly made, full of flavor, and perfect for both kids and adults. What impressed me most was their attention to detail and willingness to customize the menu to suit our preferences. The staff was attentive and polite, ensuring everything ran smoothly so we could focus on enjoying the day. They even went the extra mile to help with serving and cleanup, which was a huge relief. Thanks to Vibe, the birthday felt extra special. The food truly brought people together, and their outdoor catering service made the day stress-free and memorable. I wholeheartedly recommend Vibe Breakfast and Grill for any event—you’ll be in great hands.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A total hidden gem alert! 🌟
We stumbled upon this super cute Korean spot and—wow—what an incredible find! It was our first time trying some of these dishes, and we’re officially obsessed! 😍
We ordered the Vegetarian Kimbap, Bibimbap, Japchae, and Tteok-bokki (medium hot) — every single bite was bursting with flavor and tasted so fresh. The Tteok-bokki had just the right amount of heat 🔥 and the Japchae was perfectly seasoned and slightly sweet — total comfort food heaven!
And the best part? The staff were beyond friendly and even surprised us with complimentary vegetarian Mandu 🥟 (which were absolutely delicious). Such a thoughtful and warm touch that made our meal feel extra special.
We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. 💕
Highly recommend this place to anyone who loves authentic, flavorful, and beautifully presented Korean food. Bring your friends, your family — or just yourself and an appetite! 😋”
“Finally got to try Parkside which is near our place! The sushi was incredibly fresh, so flavourful, and so delicious! Also, even though we only got take-out, the moments we went in to get our food everyone was so friendly it actually made me wish we were staying to eat in! Reasonably priced as well! Will be back! 🥹🥰✨”
“Delicious food, good vibe, miss Thailand so much.”
“Over a couple of years, my husband and I love stopping by Crystie's for a bit to eat and a coffee before or after we head out to the near by riverwalk. Yesterday, my friend and I stopped by your coffee house to get in from the cold. We enjoyed getting caught up while enjoyed a good latte and matcha in front of your fireplace. The cookie and loaf were good too! We can't wait to come again!!”
“We had a really good experience. The variety of meats and side dishes was impressive, and we loved being able to grill right at the table. The side dish and sauce station added a lot of flavor options, which made the meal more fun.”
