Steak house
Vintage Chophouse and Tavern is a trendy restaurant and bar known for its selection of high-quality steaks and seafood, as well as an extensive wine list. The menu features mouthwatering cuts of steak, including the Butchers Block Chefs Cut and a 32-ounce bone-in prime rib chop. Guests can choose from a variety of sauces and decadent add-ons like King Crab legs.
From the moment we walked in, the experience felt elevated and thoughtfully curated. The staff were incredibly professional, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The interior design was both luxurious and tasteful, creating a perfect ambiance for a special evening. I ordered the carbonara pasta, and it was absolutely delicious—creamy, rich, and full of flavor. The steak was, without a doubt, one of the best I’ve ever had—perfectly cooked and beautifully seasoned. Every detail, from the plating to the pacing of service, was impeccable. It’s definitely a high-end restaurant, but the quality justifies the price. This is the kind of place you come back to for celebrations or when you want to treat yourself. Even the desserts were on another level—artful, balanced, and indulgent. Truly one of the most memorable dining experiences I’ve had in a long time.

A really nice restaurant with a great atmosphere and excellent service — and the food goes without saying. Alberta steak is always amazing, and the Brussels sprouts were cooked to perfection. They also have a wide selection of alcoholic drinks. Since our visit happened to be during Stampede week, there was no live music that evening, which was a slight pity, but overall I was very satisfied with this dining experience and would gladly come back again.

Vintage Chophouse is definitely a steakhouse! It has a dark and dimly lit ambience with menus that light up to make it easier to read. If you don't know what you want, no problem! The staff will be more than happy to tell you more about the characteristics of different cuts and how they pair with different drinks (if that's your style). They are also very knowledgeable about their drinks menu too. Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to steaks so you'll be the best judge of quality (it's a fairly nice steakhouse; they aren't skimping on you). As for seafood, their scallops are cooked beautifully! They were seared beautifully on the outside and very juicy but not firm on the inside. Great service, great drinks. There might even be a live band or jazz! Street parking.

We had such a good first experience here celebrating my husbands birthday. We got the shrimp cocktail, steak tartare & Caesar salad to start. And the 16oz bone in New York strip to share with broccolini & lobster Mac & cheese. Everything was good but the steak was great! Very well seasoned and grilled to perfection. As per our server’s recommendation, we had ours grilled medium rare which my husband prefers and the pieces closer to the bone were rare enough for me!! Thank you Dean for the great service 🙏🏻

Love that they bring out the butcher board when you sit down so you can know what you're ordering. The backlit menus are a nice touch since it's relatively dim interior. All the mat dishes were fantastic from the lamb chops to the steaks. The seafood tower is impressive looking but not the highest quality, would just skip that and instead get the large tomahawk for our group of 4.

My steak was tough, coco vin was good, shrimp was very ordinary, short ribs were nothing just barely OK,overdone. Salads were OK. Overpriced for what we ordered. Six people. Waitstaff was slow with the bill and it wasn’t that busy.
Douglas P — Google review
Ordered a vintage salad, drink, prime ribeye (medium rare), and scalloped potatoes. Total $136.50 + $24.57 (tip). The salad was a healthy portion and tasted good, dressing was evenly distributed and the bacon and croutons were of an appropriate amount. The steak was unfortunately a major disappointment, it tasted extremely burnt, every bite I could taste charcoal which ruined the entire meal for me. I hope this is not how they normally cook their steaks, it was very challenging to finish it. The cheddar scalloped potatoes could have used more seasoning, it was quite bland but was edible. Service was good, but I would never come here again for steak. I tried to get the picture in the best possible light without disrupting others with flash, but even then I hope you can see how burnt that steak looks.

We came here for dinner and I ordered Brant Lake Wagyu Ribeye with sauteed mushrooms. One bite away from heaven. The steak melted into my mouth; all the fat juices and herbs. The mushroom is an amazing pairing for the meats. All my friends seemed enjoy their dishes too. The service was very attentive. The ambience is very fine and fancy. Very recommended!

Caesar's Steak House & Lounge is a renowned Canadian chophouse that has been a fixture in Calgary since 1972. The restaurant is celebrated for its elegant ambiance, featuring burgundy leather and chandeliers. It has earned a reputation as a favorite among the city's oil barons, offering an exceptional dining experience centered around aged cuts of locally sourced Alberta beef.
One of the best dining experiences we had in Calgary! We were warmly welcomed as soon as we arrived, and the service throughout the night was both professional and friendly. Every dish we ordered was absolutely delicious. My boyfriend and I both had the New York strip cooked to medium rare, and I added black tiger shrimp on the side—they were perfectly cooked and even more amazing than I expected. We also enjoyed some fantastic local Alberta beers, which paired wonderfully with the meal. Overall, 10 out of 10. Highly recommended!

This place was amazing! Hands-down, the best steak in Calgary that we had! If I was back here, I would definitely go again! Obviously, we got the steak. We also had some wine and some amazing ice wine! We did not have a reservation, but we able were able to get in. Once you get inside, it is a beautiful restaurant! Apparently one of the presidents of the US came to dine here…. I forget which one…. The service was amazing. Our waiter was awesome. He let us split a steak, which was great because I don’t normally do that. But also this steak he had to cook in front of us, which was really cool. Fire! The cheesy bread was so good I wanted more. I highly recommend this place!

What an amazing dining experience! The T-bone steak cooked over open flames was absolutely perfect – juicy, flavorful, and grilled to perfection. The pan-fried shrimp was seasoned beautifully and so tasty. We also loved the garlic cheese bread, warm and delicious with just the right amount of flavor, and finished the meal with one of the lightest, fluffiest cheesecakes I’ve ever had. On top of the outstanding food, the vibrant atmosphere and excellent service made the evening even more enjoyable. Truly one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in Calgary – highly recommend!

Great steaks house in downtown Calgary. Had a reservation for Sat evening, place was busy Really nice wait staff - helpful and patient. Menu and wine selection quite good - variety was nice to see.

We visited calgary this week and of course had to try the oldest steakhouse in Calgary, full of history & Alberta steaks charbroiled on an opening flame grill 🤤 When we arrived, they wanted to seat us at the edge of the dining room but I requested a view of the open flame grill area and they were able to accommodate! Very much appreciated! We ordered: Garlic bread & cheese bread💕 French Onion Soup House made Caesar Salad 💕 Rib Eye 💕 with Lobster Tail Lamb Rack The garlic and cheese covered bread that they give was so light and fluffy while toasted on the outside. Their caesar salad was delicious! Fresh lettuce and one of the tastiest house made caesar dressings I've had. The ribeye was very good, but the lobster tail was a bit overcooked and tough.

Best of the best. We had a five star experience. Went there with my family. Service was AWESOME. can’t do it any better. Drinks (wine and beer) were really good. And now it comes to the food. Startet with garlic and Parmesan cheese bread. I had the ribeye 400gr and the other ones in my party took the Neptune (filet with prawns) I never had a steak that good before. It was so flavorful. I highly recommend that place and would ever come again here. Best wishes.

First of all the steak was delicious, cooked to perfection. The sides needed some work. Cheese toast couldn’t be bothered. The server was excellent. Helpful and very attentive The area could use a good scrub. Not dirty but needs a lift if that makes sense!

The restaurant embodies the traditional values of a steakhouse while offering an experience that transcends mere dining to become a memorable celebration of food and camaraderie.

Oh my god — I’m truly impressed. This will definitely be my favorite place in Calgary. Everything was perfect, from the warm and welcoming hostess to the amazing ambiance. The décor is beautiful, the bar is stylish, and the seating is both comfortable and elegant. The service was exceptional — my waiter was attentive, kind, and genuinely pleasant. I didn’t manage to try all the dishes this time, but I will definitely be back. The oysters were simply outstanding, and the happy hour was one of the best I’ve experienced. I highly recommend this restaurant — it’s an absolute gem in Calgary, and I’m already looking forward to my next visit.

You'd definitely expect A LOT MORE. It took half an hour to get our drink order taken after we were seated. My coffee came with rotten milk. Some of the cutlery was rusty and some was broken. It was so loud I couldn't hear what the people at my table were saying. When the food finally did come I was surprised at how little we got. It also dawned on me that I wasn't asked how I wanted my steak. I'm glad it came the way I like it. The mashed potatoes that came with it were cold. My wife's pasta was very salty. As it was my birthday they brought me a cup of freezer burned sorbet. HUGE LET DOWN. Especially when the bill came. I'm guessing they glide by on past glory. Don't bother.

We visited Calgary in early September and had dinner at Hy’s Steakhouse. We ordered the New York Strip and the Rib Steak Neptune; hands down the best steaks I’ve ever had in my life. I’m still dreaming about that steak! The flavor, tenderness, and quality were on another level. Of course, the amazing Alberta beef definitely played a big part in how incredible those steaks were. I’d highly, highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Calgary.

My current go-to for a high-end steakhouse! Can get really busy and a bit too crowded but will come back for the food and service! The oysters plus Massolino d’asti was the best and I still crave for it at times! Steak was perfectly cooked to our liking and our server made us feel taken care of and didn’t feel like he is rushing us! I just wosh they have more vegan dessert options but other than that, it was perfect!
M S — Google review
The service with Nikola was EXEMPLARY AND VEREY MUCH APPRECIATED! He saw to it that our table was constantly kept clear of crumbs (something we didn’t observe with others). What we did not enjoy was the steak. We ordered a porterhouse well done (I know most people don’t like to cook steak well but it’s how we like it). The steak itself was $128 CAD and I was expecting a steak to be on par if not better than what we get in the US for a similar price. It was barely a 1/2 inch thinking that and they cut it into ribbons. I don’t know if that is the Canadian way nor not but it ruined my steak for me. Also, we requested light seasoning and they put a LOT on it and it ended up making me very unwell. The salt seemed to dry me out from the inside. Overall the food was disappointing and unfortunate.

A really nice Happy Hour in the lounge. The Happy Hour menu online was slightly different than in the restaurant. On Saturday around 5 PM they had a musician, which made for a cool vibe. The service was fantastic.

Hy’s Steakhouse in Calgary was an incredible experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was elegant and welcoming, and the food was outstanding , perfectly cooked steaks and sides that were just as memorable. What truly made the night special, though, was our server. He was absolutely amazing by far the best server we have ever had. He was attentive, friendly, and funny & genuinely went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. This was hands down one of the best dining experiences we’ve had, and we can’t recommend Hy’s enough for anyone looking for top-notch food and service.

Modern Steak on Stephen Avenue in Calgary is a top choice for steak lovers due to its focus on serving locally sourced beef from various Alberta ranches. The restaurant's pride lies in its Modern Benchmark Black Angus, which comes from the offspring of a bull owned by the establishment. Owner Stephen Deere's meticulous approach to breeding, feeding, and grilling is evident throughout the venue, with informative materials available for guests.
Great spot for Halal steaks in Calgary. There are a broad variety of options on the menu to suit all palates, and the staff did a great job at making recommendations for us to try. There's ample space for dining-in, and the food comes quickly to your table. Special mention to the sticky toffee pudding, which was the perfect dessert to cap off our meal. Highly recommend visiting if you're in the area!

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 recently celebrated a special occasion at Modern Steakhouse, and the experience exceeded all expectations. I had mentioned in advance that it was a celebration, and the team went above and beyond to make the day unforgettable. From the beautifully arranged bouquet and handwritten card to the complimentary starter drinks, every detail was thoughtful and personal. The service was outstanding, Marina (our hostess) and the manager Trevor truly ensured that everything was flawless. Their hospitality and attention to detail made this celebration the highlight of our special day. Highly recommend Modern Steakhouse for anyone looking for not just a meal, but a memorable experience. 💯

I dined at this restaurant last night and had an outstanding experience from start to finish. The level of service was truly exceptional—some of the best I’ve encountered in recent memory. From the moment we were seated, our server, Peter, made us feel welcome and well cared for. I ordered the ribeye steak, which was cooked to absolute perfection—beautifully seared on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside, and seasoned just right to bring out the full flavor of the meat. Peter recommended a bottle of red wine to accompany the meal, and his suggestion was spot-on. The wine paired wonderfully with the steak, enhancing the overall dining experience. What stood out most was Peter’s attentiveness and professionalism. He was warm, knowledgeable, and always seemed to anticipate what we needed without being intrusive. His attention to detail and genuine hospitality made a lasting impression. This was not just a great meal, but a memorable dining experience. I’ll definitely be returning and will be recommending this place to friends and family.

The service was very attentive and welcoming--including the hostess, floor manager, waiter, and runner. Each one was very friendly and helpful. As a sort of amuse-bouche, we were provided with truffle oil topped popcorn, which my wife enjoyed. I had the ribeye which was perfectly done, very tender, juicy, and well seasoned. Probably the best steak that I've had in a long while. My wife had the braised rib which was also very tender but could have used a touch more salt. It was served with wide, flat noodles that had a good texture and taste. To finish we had the chocolate cake which was decent but a little too dense and dry and could have used more raspberry coulee but otherwise had a good taste. Overall, it was a very good experience.

We came here for the August Date Night and the food and wine pairings (at least the wine we chose) was very good! The NY Strip was cooked to perfection, and the portion sizes for the sides were huge !! The only thing I didn’t like as much was the crispy potatoes, but they were still good, just not for me :))
AaronVSL — Google review
One of the popular Steakhouses in Calgary Interior is chic, service is excellent and prices are reasonable. They've got outdoor patio and a patio rooftop . For food their NY strip was cooked to well, although I did prefer medium rare it came medium to medium-well. The fillet mignon was delicious along with their sides. Overall a great place and great location.

We ordered steak tartar it comes with chips and it tasted so good! The cheesy bread it’s a little bit salty but it was good too! The whole environment was so nice many people come here to celebrate occasions. We ordered steak for two, it was a T bone steak with salt on side. It’s super delicious! Good for three people as well! Also, the black truffle gnocchi was my favorite! It was so creamy and flavorful. Cocktails were delicious too I ordered jalapeno one I love it! For sides we ordered crispy cauliflowers and broccolini, def love them!

Our experience at Chairman’s Steakhouse was nothing short of phenomenal. From the moment we sat down, the atmosphere felt refined yet welcoming, setting the tone for an unforgettable evening. We started with fresh oysters and a round of their incredible whiskies which paired beautifully with the meal to come. The crab Wellington was absolutely to die for—flaky pastry, rich crab filling, and every bite bursting with flavor. The ribeye steak was cooked to perfection, juicy, tender, and seasoned just right, truly showcasing the quality of the meat. Every dish seemed to hit every note of taste and flavor, making it hard to pick a favorite. And just when we thought it couldn’t get better, dessert proved otherwise the sticky toffee pudding was warm, indulgent, and comforting, while the cheesecake sandwich was playful yet decadent, the perfect sweet finish to the night. Chairman’s delivers not just a dinner, but an elevated dining experience where every detail from the food to the service makes you want to come back again and again. We had a perfect date night ❤️

This is the first steakhouse I've tried outside of downtown Calgary. I'm extremely pleased with everything! Most importantly, the steak was spectacular. One of the best steaks I've had in a while. They have a Wednesday special for two which includes cheese toast, salad and cheesecake. The cheese cake is just perfect. It's sufficient for 2-3 people to share post dinner and it's not too heavy. Our server was great. Constantly checking up on us and keeping everything moving at a good pace. If you can book to sit outdoors on a nice day, do it!! The lake view is really nice. Overall, a great experience and I look forward to coming back.

I, along with my family, had an amazing experience. My parents were visiting us from Seattle, and I decided to take them for dinner at Chairman’s Steakhouse. I’m so glad I made that choice! The food was exquisite, and the entire experience was wonderful. We were attended by Shama, who was incredibly gracious and super friendly. We truly loved the atmosphere, the food, the staff’s hospitality, and the overall ambience. I’ll definitely be revisiting! Also, it was my birthday dinner 😊

Starting with drinks, the Old Fashioned really hits the spot- definitely 5 stars. The Santa Barbara cocktail was excellent, also 5 stars, but the Spanish wine (9 oz) was a miss for me at just 2 stars. The Caesar was disappointing (0 stars), while the beer scores 4 stars. The complimentary bread and spread were ok, maybe a 3-star, but nice to have. For mains, the Alberta Free Run Chicken was delicious at 5 stars, though the caramelized onions made it a touch sweeter than I’d like. The 8 oz tenderloin tasted good 4 stars but at $65, I’m not sure it fully justifies the price. On a side note, the order of gnocchi was really disappointing honestly, I’d just skip it. Dessert, the creme brulee, was excellent 5 stars. Overall, a lot of the experience is about the ambiance and location both are really nice. Service was great everywhere I went, from the lobby to the dining area and even in the washrooms. We ended up spending $280 for two people, including taxes and tip, so it’s definitely on the pricey side.

My boyfriend and I came here for his birthday, and our first visit to Chairman’s was absolutely wonderful. Our server, I think her name was Amy or Mary, made the night so special. She was friendly, attentive, and genuinely cared that we enjoyed everything. She recommended the Westman Colada (which I loved), and my boyfriend tried the new Santa Barbara cocktail but didn’t quite like it. Without hesitation, she made sure we were both happy and took care of it, bringing him the same drink because he liked mine better. That kind of service really stood out. We started with the Wagyu carpaccio, thin, flavorful, and beautifully presented. For dinner, we got the petit filet and the 12oz Reserve Chairman cut, with roasted mushrooms, mashed potatoes, broccolini and both kinds of mac and cheese (with and without lobster). Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted incredible. The birthday cheesecake was the perfect finishing touch. Even the bathrooms were spotless and stunning, you can tell how much attention to detail goes into every part of the experience. Between the amazing food, warm atmosphere, and exceptional service, this is definitely our new go-to for special occasions. Huge thank you to the team for making the night so memorable!

An excellent Calgary steakhouse. The oysters were fresh and well done. The pan seared Scallops were very tasty, perhaps slightly heavy on the sauce. The steaks were really well prepared and well presented. One of our steaks was overdone but to the credit of the restaurant they saw it and correct it themselves, a nice touch. The cheese toast was excellent and a must. The lobster Mac & Cheese is also a must try. This restaurant has a really nice ambience, good service and the steak is really well done. Definitely worth a visit.

The food here is very good and reasonably priced for the quality. We had the fillet mignon, New York style steak, and fillet angus. Their homemade desserts are also delicious. We had the apple pie and cheesecake. Shout out to our server, Rhiannon for her friendliness, care and overall positive attitude that made our experience even better. She gave good recommendations and her sense of humor maintained a good mood. The ambience was also good - not too loud and very cozy.

Hands down the best restaurant experience we had in three weeks exploring Canada. From the moment we sat down on the first night Katie welcomed us and instantly cured our blues from our flight being cancelled. The shrimp pasta was 10/10. We returned for a second night and were greeted by Emma who's sincerity and warmness travelled through the restaurant. We honestly can't recommend this place enough. We will definitely be back... All the way from Ireland. A must visit!!!

Cynthia was absolutely amazing in helping us organize our wedding. She truly put her heart into taking care of every little detail, and because of her, everything went smoothly and perfectly. The staff were friendly and provided outstanding service throughout the day. Our guests loved the atmosphere and the food at Saltlik—it was a big hit! I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to host a private event.

My husband and I went here since it was recommended to us by a friend so we had pretty high expectations. Glad to say that our experience was amazing here. Our server, Michaela (Mikayla?) was great to us the whole night. We requested a seat change and she gladly accommodated. She was friendly and quick the whole night. Glad we got her haha We ordered the bone-in ribeye and grilled blackened salmon. My husband said (and I agree) that the ribeye was cooked to perfection and was delicious. Probably the best we've ever had at a restaurant. The salmon, however wasn't as great. The salmon itself was quite bland by the vegetables and sauce made up for it. We ordered a few drinks too and the wood smoked old fashioned was delicious. Overall, great experience. Would definitely come back again and this time will order the steaks.

Had an amazing dinner to celebrate my birthday with my girlfriend. To start everything, we’ve ordered the wok fried calamari which was so good and it woke up our taste buds for sure. The steak I’ve ordered is seasoned well and cooked to a perfect medium just like I wanted. My girlfriend loved the braised beef ribs. Our server, Kaitie was amazing. Made us feel comfortable and on a relaxed pace. The drinks were okay. I had the phoenix and their signature drink (I forgot the name; the one on the picture). They also gave me a complimentary drink and they’ve customized the chocolate molten lava to highlight my birthday which tasted great too to finish everything off. Amazing first time experience and will definitely be back.

Great steakhouse with cute vibes and great food Had the filet with the Calamari for starters and have to say, one of the best Calamari that I have ever had. It was crispy but not without texture and well seasoned. The steak was also perfectly cooked. Also tried their cheesecake and it was good but nothing special. Overall a great experience if you are in the area and crave some Calamari or good steak.

The Keg Steakhouse + Bar - 4th Ave in Calgary offers a blend of sophistication and casual dining, making it a popular choice for those seeking high-quality meals in a relaxed atmosphere. Known for its succulent steaks, seafood dishes, and comprehensive wine list, it's a staple for business diners looking for an understated yet elegant setting.
We came here for our 4th anniversary dinner and ended up asking to move from the patio to an indoor dining spot. They quickly accommodated us and we had Dustin as our server. Dustin was so great - checked in on us frequently, was super friendly and knowledgeable on the menu with good recommendations and also treated us with the Billy miner pie for dessert! Our meals were delicious and always so consistent with our satisfaction levels. The Keg is our favorite and this will be our first location choice!

Service was great and the atmosphere was fantastic for a group of friends. I ordered the French Onion soup, escargot, peppercorn NY strip medium rare, and split a chocolate cake and Billy Miner pie. The only miss to me was the chocolate cake. It was a little too dense in texture for my tastes. The exterior l escargots was delicious but I'm used to them in shell. I was surprised that the texture was still supple. The steak was cooked to temp and delicious! Really enjoyed this place and find it a great place to celebrate with friends. Look forward to returning.

Went on a Tuesday evening during the Calgary Stampede for dinner. I phoned first to make reservations and was given options for seating. I mentioned I wanted a quieter part of the restaurant and that we were a party of 6. When we arrived, the restaurant was packed and loud. And the hostess led us to our seats, we were very pleasantly surprised that they had available and given us a semi private half moon booth! Mo was our server for the evening and he did a great job with taking care of our dining needs. What a great experience for me as I hadn't eaten in a Keg restaurant in over 10 years. Had to order the prime rib and though some parts were a bit chewy, overall, I enjoyed the experience!

Great experience overall! I came here with a friend and we had a great time. I ordered the baseball steak, and she had the filet mignon—both were cooked perfectly and full of flavor. On the side, we shared iceberg lettuce and a classic Caesar salad, which were fresh and well-balanced. Drinks were on point too: I had an IPA and she went with a gin & tonic. Service was excellent—friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The location is amazing as well, definitely adds to the vibe. Would absolutely come back!

Made it for happy hour and tried a couple of the offered "Happy hour" apps (scallops and bacon, and the prime rib sliders) Soooooooo good and perfect size for what we were looking for as a late bite and beverage after a long day of travel and finally arriving at the adjoined hotel (The Westin). Service was great and the bartenders were wonderful! Thanks Saf!

Great place! We had a wonderful time. Both steaks were cooked to perfection. And the lambs and brussel sprouts were fantastic. Steak was cooked exactly how we asked for. Above all, the service and experience were amazing. Our server Scott and his assistant Mark were absolute Gem. From the moment we sat down, Scott took good care of us and was extremely knowledgeable about the steak cuts and wine selections. Scott and Mark and the team went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. The restaurant itself is high class and the food was outstanding. The steak was cooked to perfection and the dessert was truly amazing. We’ll definitely be back, and we’ll even ask for Scott again!

I CANT EXPRESS HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS PLACE.. first of all when we step into the restaurant, a nice lady in the front will guide us. since we had an appointment, it was a fast process. she hung our coats in the closet, and gave us a number so we can exchange it with our coat at the end. when we went into the dining area, it looked so clean and neat. the utensils on the table, the napkins, and the plates, they were very symmetrical. she brought us to a table for 2. the view from our sit was IMMACULATE. i am really sensitive about where i sit, as i love taking pictures, but when our table was right infront of the view, i was already in love. she then placed an anniversary card as it was our 2 years!! and she sprinkled stars on top which was so cute. our server name was a “HANI”, he was very kind and he explained few of the popular menu to us. the food was great, i found them too salty though, which was unfortunate, however the presentation of the foods were chefs kiss 🤌🏼. they told us that if we order main dish, we need to order a side dish as well. so as you can see in the picture, i ordered the chipotle potato wedges and he ordered sweet potato. overall the experience was great. it wasn’t too loud nor too quiet, the server kept coming to us to make sure we were doing alright. just hope that the foods weren’t salty, and they are bit too pricy as well, but it’s understandable.

I had my birthday dinner on Thursday night and It was one of the best dining experiences we have ever had. Food is amazing, the decoration is elegant and the service is absolutely outstanding. Every single employee we met there was super friendly and professional. The moment we arrived at reception desk I have been recognized and greeted Happy Birthday with warm welcoming. After we sat down the server brought me a birthday card signed with whole team.She even scattered some cute spangles on our table. How sweet is that! Our servers including the young lady who brought the steak to us and demonstrated the hot buttery plates were super friendly and welcoming. The dessert was served with a lighted birthday candle with Happy birthday writing on the plate. We will definitely come back to this restaurant again and definitely recommend friends and family to this restaurant for the excellent service and the fantastic food as well as the beautiful environment.

Amazing Steak 3 Course Prime Time Dinner for $79pp at Ruth’s Chris Steak House in Calgary Alberta. Steaks were cooked perfectly medium rare in their 1800 degree broiler and then served in 500 degree plates with butter. Service was amazing 👏.

This will always be my number one go-to restaurant whenever I’m in Calgary for three reasons: 1. Unmatched Quality – My steak (pictured) was perfectly cooked and topped Oscar style — with buttery crab meat and velvety béarnaise sauce that elevated an already incredible cut of meat to the next level. Every bite was pure perfection. 2. Exceptional Service – The staff treat you like family while maintaining a level of professionalism you don’t often find. They anticipate your needs before you even ask and make you feel welcome from start to finish. 3. The Atmosphere – Elegant yet comfortable. Whether it’s a special celebration or just a night out, the ambiance makes the evening truly memorable. Ruth’s Chris is simply unbeatable for the perfect steak experience in Calgary

Last night we tried the Cgy Tower location as my sister had not tried Ruth's Chris previously. We started with Calamari which came buried in sweet sauce vs on the side. The Calamari was like chewing on a piece of rubber! The appetizer was moved to the edge of the table where it sat for 10 mins. The server returned but did not ask how the Calamari was. Eventually is was returned. Next we tried the Ahi Tuna which was ok but served cold from the fridge. I have never been served cold Ahi. It was ok but would have been better warm. For the mains the Sable fish and 12 oz Ribeye were decent. The Ribeye was under seasoned. The baked potato was an adventure as we ordered half with cheese and half without. Both halves came with cheese. The server was surprised that I still expected my half without cheese. Any other time I have eaten at Ruth's Chris the food was excellent. The food at Cgy Tower was avg at best and not worth the $250 price paid. At no time through the meal were we asked how the food was, shocking!

Went here to try their Oysters, non the less was amazing. Loved their sauces. I ordered 16 just for myself. ;) the atmosphere was quiet and cozy, but probably cause I was sitting in a corner near the window i got pretty cold. The pecan pie was good, but would be amazing if it was served warm on a warm plate. There was more pecan than filling so worth the price. Whipped cream on top taste like from the can, so it sort of dripped even in a cold environment but still yummy. Would come here again!

This morning we booked a reservation and the waiter knew as soon as we came in that it's us even though it was our first time. Not only did they serve us with amazing good in a timely manner they are kind with their customer service. We ordered the scallop appi along with the cream of broccoli, salmon burger and some dessert. Everything was to our satisfaction but the dessert due to the fact it was half size was a bit disappointing. It was so good we wanted the full portion.

The restaurant was packed and we were a group of 8. I enjoyed my medium rare sirloin steak meal. My steak was well seasoned and just delicious. My husband loved his baby back ribs meal. We all opted to sit outside in the patio since the weather was just great. All in all a great choice of a place.

Walking into Nick's Steakhouse & Pizza on Crowchild Trail isn't just stepping into a restaurant; it’s like entering a beautifully preserved piece of Calgary history. Despite being born and raised here, this was my first visit, and I immediately understood why this local institution—in business since 1979—is so beloved. The legacy is evident in every detail, from the warm, classic 1970s décor to the incredible family hospitality. I chose the Beef Dip, and it was the perfect introduction to Nick's dedication to hearty, scratch-made comfort food. The beef was tender, the jus flavorful, and the sandwich itself hit every mark for quality, old-school flavour. The portion sizes are generous, ensuring you get classic value. What sets Nick's apart is its deep, genuine connection to the community. You can feel the history, especially its ties to the Calgary Stampeders and McMahon Stadium right across the street. The atmosphere before a home game is electric, and knowing this is where the Stampeders have been sharing pre-game meals for decades just adds to the iconic status. This is a true, three-generation family-run business, founded by the late, great Nick Petros. His journey from Greek immigrant to Calgary entrepreneur is inspirational, and the current owners, Mark and Michelle Petros, maintain that tradition of warmth and dedication. Nick's isn't just about feeding customers; they treat you like family. If you are looking for a taste of authentic Calgary—the kind of place with award-winning food, decades of tradition, and a heart for its community—you absolutely must visit Nick’s. Highly recommended for family dinners, game day eats, or just a truly satisfying sandwich and fries experience. I can’t wait to go back and try the famous pizza or a classic Alberta steak! Also no photos, because I absolutely scarfed down the food before making the realization. Gotta come back and redeem myself next time!

The advise I got when coming here was "have the steak, and don't bother with the pasta or pizza" and man was that on the money. This place has some of the best steak I have ever had with generous helpings of veggies and mashed potatoes. You will not leave hungry. The service was also ultra quick and quality. The interior is a fun quirky almost 70s esc vibe that honestly is just perfect with the steak dinner.

Located in Downtown Edmonton, it provides a warm hospitality and a classy atmosphere. The restaurant boasts an extensive gluten-free menu with various culinary delights and takes precautions to avoid cross-contamination.
Nothing short of spectacular! The service was top-notch! Shout out to Morgan, Desiree and crew for outstanding service and making us feel welcome for our first visit to this Edmonton gem. The atmosphere is posh, elegant and welcoming. It doesn't matter if you wear jeans or a suit, you will fit right in. Hubby and I both had the 11 oz mouthwatering beef filet and it was exceptional! Sides were potato au gratin and sweet potato casserole with a pecan crust. Both were amazing and we did not have room to finish every last bite. It was a such an incredible treat and you will not be disappointed! I wish we had room for dessert, but we will be back!

Had a lovely meal here with my husband, Tyler our server was so well spoken and throughly went over the menu as it was our first time dinning here. The cocktails, the bread the atmosphere was all perfect. This tartare was the dish I had and it was perfectly executed. My husband had the cowboy steak and potatoes and the cook was perfection.. I had a bite and it melted in my mouth! And last dessert! The crust of the banana cream pie was so delicate and delicious. And the key lime pie was rich and smooth. I highly recommend this place for a date night or celebration. I will be dining again for sure

Steak can be done many different ways and it usually comes down to preference, they make a more neutral tasting steak to pair well with the type of sides they offer (I had the 16oz ribeye). If you ever decide to go I would highly recommend the Potato Fingerlings. Whatever they did to the sauce is out of this world. The Brussel sprouts were also quite rich in flavour. In all honesty the main attraction to me at the end was the DESSERT. By God this place has got to have the best cheesecake I have had in my whole life. It is also quite big for a cheesecake to eat by yourself. I personally would caution against the sweet potato casserole as the flavour profile of having pecan nuts on top kept making me think I was eating an apple pie when I was eating sweet potatoes. Overall the atmosphere was great and our server Curtis was fantastic!

22 years ago we went to Ruth’s Chris in Orlando on our honeymoon… all these years later, they did not disappoint! The service, the sizzle of the steak coming out on the 500• plate, the mmmmmmm of every single bite of steak and sweet potato casserole… exactly as we remembered it!

- our server Tamra was both extremely professional and perfectly friendly. - I literally cheered when the sizzling plates arrived and then raved the whole meal about how each bite was as good as the first. - the manager, Christian, took us on a tour of downstairs including the library and vault. It made us feel incredibly valuable. Thank you Christian for taking the time out of your busy evening to make us feel like VIPs. - they were so thoughtful knowing it was our anniversary: all the little touches like the heart décor and signed card and wonderful dessert. It’s not cheap, but you get what you pay for in next-level service and incomparable food. An experience we won’t forget. They set the bar high!

Ruth’s is one of our gotos for date night. The service and quality of food is always immaculate. There was a time where my partner and I did feel judged as we were asked 3 separate times if we had a table when getting up to use the bathroom or coming back inside from a smoke during our date even by the hostess that seated us which was strange. The manager made up for it by ensuring our desert was covered due to this situation. The food is always amazing. This dinning is definitely worth experiencing and we highly recommend. We have had almost all the sides on our many date nights here my favourite being the creamed spinach. Steak is always cooked exactly to our request with butter on a hot plate. Thank you for making each and everyone of our experiences worth it and memorable

Brazilian restaurant
Minas Brazilian Steakhouse is a traditional Brazilian restaurant known for its tableside carved meats and classic sides. The cuisine is meat-forward, offering plentiful portions of Churrasco-style meats alongside tasty dishes like farofa, fried plantains, and black bean stew. Located in Eau Claire Market, the restaurant brings the flavors of Southeast Brazil to Calgary with its flavorful local vegetable dishes and rodizio-style service.
Had their lunch rodizio. Really good meats, every piece served was seasoned well and they were always offering to carve more if you wanted more pieces. They also took requests if you preferred certain cuts. The top sirloin was really good and so was the lamb that they had. They had both a spicy and non-spicy sausage. Service was friendly and they were quick at refilling drinks. At the time of writing this review, they have a promotion where weekday lunches are at $35 per person. For the rodizio meats available at lunch which included lamb, this is currently an excellent value for a lunch rodizio that you really can't get anymore unless if you time travelled back to at least five years ago.

Was on my bucket list for so long and I finally went. Very friendly and helpful staff. The meats though… I found each and every cut to be too salty! I thought other reviewers mentioning this saltiness were exaggerating but it turns out they weren’t! I also think the meats were seriously lacking in variety. The Pão de queijo did not move me at all; I typically always eat so much of it but I struggled to finish these ones. Would not have taken that much if I had known. Their salad bar was more limited than say Pampa or Bolero but their buffet food variety was good. All in all, I honestly don’t think I’ll be returning. Not because I had a horrible experience but because to me it doesn’t live up to the hype it gets. Thank you to the wonderful staff who offered to move us to a corner table which was more suitable for a family with a small baby in a stroller.

Had a wonderful birthday dinner here with a group of ten. Carolina and her staff were very eager to make it a memorable evening and it was. The food and service were great as always and the birthday passion fruit mousse presentation was a lovely surprise. Thank you for such a great celebration!!

My first time at Minas and I preferred it to the other Brazillian steakhouses in Calgary. The staff was so friendly and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. The serving sizes were fantastic for the price! My sister and I ordered a platter for 2 and the platter was way more than enough for us, the meats were cooked to perfection and the fried cassava was delectable! 😍it was well worth it and I told the waitress that I wish I had a second stomach to fit it all!They have the best limonada brasileira I've had in a very long time! Everything was delicious, the right balance of sweetness, rich and creamy not watered down! They even gave me a special slice of tres leches cake for my birthday! I felt super special 😃! And I can't wait to return with my family to try the buffet next time 💕 Great Job Minas! My best compliments to the chefs and servers, wonderful place, great service! Highly recommend, I will definitely return again!

Charbar is a sophisticated dining spot in Calgary, located in the historic Simmons Building alongside other culinary hotspots and a rooftop patio with stunning views of the Bow River. The restaurant's identity is inspired by its Argentine wood-fired grill, offering seafood and wood-fired steaks paired with craft cocktails created by their Bar Manager. Additionally, Charbar serves as a unique wedding venue, blending modern industrial chic with panoramic river views and culinary excellence within the beautifully renovated 100-year-old former mattress factory.
I’d give 10 stars if that’s an option. Celebrated my mom’s birthday here, didn’t expect too much but arrived finding out there’s a cute balloon attached to our seat. Every single one of the staff here was amazing, they greeted us with smile and wished happy birthday to my mom. Our server was super attentive, absolutely exceptional!! Food matched my expectations, I’ve heard great things about here, and they were worth the praises! Beef fat fries were sooo crispy and it’s very obvious to that they were actually made with beef fat. Ceviche was great, loved the puffed wild rice in there, they added some crunchy texture to it and leveled it up. And the porterhouse was just beyond description, so delicious and tender, pairs well with Argentina Malbec.

Charbar was amazing! The service was excellent. Our waitress was super attentive and somehow managed to top up my drink before I even noticed it was getting low. The food came out in a reasonable time, and the steaks were cooked perfectly. They were perfectly cooked and seasoned. It also came with a great selection of sauces that really elevated the meal. The restaurant itself has a modern and stylish vibe that made the whole experience even better. We had a great dinner and will definitely be coming back.

The lunch options are various. We tried the steak chimichurri; it was excellent. We will be back to try the other items in the next few days. Update: the other options were fine but not as good as the steak. The patio is always fun

We just checked in at our hotel across the street and after a trip of almost 21 hours we wanted to a quick meal before we went to bed. We ended up in the charbar. On the inside it was well decorated and a lot of seating space. We tried the burger and the chevice mix, both were very good. We had a really nice waiter.

The whole crew was terrific service. Hosting station to servers(Natasha) and kitchen staff. Took care of allergies, wonderful suggestions and knowledge of menu, including wines was great. Charred Napa Cabbage salad, Tableside Ceviche Mixto(Jessica made it thx), Beef Butcher Steak & New York Strip. Chimichurri sauce fantastic. We were watching many other tables and it seemed like full enjoyment from them too. Give this place a try. I think you'll come back again and again.

Trying Charbar after 6 years, we were pleased to taste the same delicious food, vibrant and great service. We stopped at Nash, but witnessed a poor welcome, saying sorry done with lunch menu (while minutes left, and not busy at all)…and while we had the plan for Charbar for later, just changed plans and showed up. They welcomed us, with a good table at a nice spot…

4.4 ⭐️ Great little spot tucked away in the old Simmons Factory in East Village, steps off the river path/ Bow River. This place did not disappoint. We visited them for a friends birthday and ordered Broccoli and Cauliflower dish which was amazing. The burger was spectacular (cheese curds on a burger!?!! 💯), fries- meh skip out on these next time. We also enjoyed the Beef Empanadas which are the best empanadas that we’ve experienced in Calgary, to date.

Loved relaxing on the patio for a moments time mid afternoon was so peaceful and relaxing. The lunch menu was still available so I went for the 6oz NY strip. I have to say I was kind of disheartened by it. But was so hungry ate it quite quickly.. and this was immediately as I received it and was cool/cold. I see all these beautiful char grilled photos of steaks. Med rare. And I order that and mine was like boiled or steamed tasting/texture is how id describe it. Even if it was grilled. Just looked a bit slimy. Not BBQ char grilled in any facet unfortunately. Service was nice, the girls were great. Enjoyed the happy hour drinks. Thank you for offering a Pinot Noir option. Truly appreciated. Fries were amazing! Calamari was beyond small for $20. And only personal preference not sure if many would agree. But there was so much aoli in the dish? I did switch out the salsa for another sauce choice. But didn't realize it would be on a thick bed of aoli. I personally dont like a ton of sauces. As i enjoy calamari. So it was a bit much for me. Maybe in a bottle and drizzled into the dish?? or knowing now id just ask for both on the side. Overall still nice just could have been a smidgen better with the steak since that's their main focus and reputation. Hopefully I'll get back there and get to enjoy the real deal that I see in photos of other reviews! Still recommend though as clearly mine seems like an off day.

Wellingtons of Calgary, established in 1979, is a revered steakhouse that aims to provide an elegant and traditional dining experience. Known for its classic menu featuring beef Wellington and table-side Caesar salad, the restaurant also offers delectable options like steak Diane and a variety of seafood dishes. The interior exudes a timeless charm that complements the authentic steakhouse ambiance.
This steakhouse was recommended by a colleague. She said it was one of the best if not the best in Calgary. She wasn't wrong. The ambiance is exceptional. The dining room is an average size with a few wonderful bay windows. Our server explained the food and answered our questions. She could not have been better. I started with a shrimp cocktail and the cocktail sauce was out of this world. Spicy yet not too so, and obviously made in house. My Steak Diane was very tender and roasted potatoes were perfection. I had a caramel dessert and unfortunately the name escapes me. A custard with caramel sauce. My daughter has the prime rib that she said was one of the best she's had. Incredibly tender and flavourful. We will definitely be back. The staff here are amazing and the overall experience excellent. Thanks for a wonderful long weekend dinner.

Top tier service - From every staff member in the entire building. Everyone is extremely friendly and professional. Beautiful place. Great steak. Mushrooms were delicious. Calamari was a bit chewy - I would personally just ask for it to be extra extra crispy next time. The sauce that went with it, we both loved. Very fresh. Not dense and heavy. I love that they offer a table side Caesar, and bring you the toppings at the table for your potato. The bread and butter is always great! Would love if the bread was a bit warm so the butter could spread a bit easier or melt even just a bit. I’ve come here dressed up in designer and also in gym sweats and a hoodie. I was treated the exact same. Classy place. Love it. I will be back!

Dined at Wellingtons for the first time Friday night, and my expectations were exceeded. The dining room was quite busy and to my surprise it wasn't all boomers 👵🧓 lol. Seriously though, we ordered the Peppercorn NY strip, Wellington (not pictured 🥴), Calamari and French Onion Soup. The steaks were cooked to a PERFECT medium and were fantastic. The onion soup.and Calamari were pretty standard, but fresh and tasty enough. Service was on point but they made me take off my peaky blinders style chapeau. Of course I obliged, but really lol?!

This review is for the lounge, not the dining room. We learned of Wellingtons from a Facebook foodie group. A few of the members recommended this eatery when others have asked for steakhouse recommendations. We chose to dine at the lounge not the dining room because we make pretty decent steak at home and because we liked the options on the lounge menu. It turns out you can order from the dining room menu anyway when you’re in the lounge. Our server was fantastic; she had a great attitude and was prompt and attentive. Unfortunately, the food was not as great as the service. The food was mediocre, and even disappointing for one of the appetizers. We ordered a large Caesar salad, beef carpaccio and escargot to start. For our mains we ordered the beef liver and onions and sole meunière. Relative to other steakhouses in the city, this is certainly one of least impressive restaurants. The salad was very average and doable at home. The escargot was worse than the canned ones, and the frozen ones in the shell are better. To top it off, my partner and I both got a stomach ache from the food and had to rush to the bathroom when we got home.

If you’re looking for a place that exudes romance, this restaurant is an absolute gem. My husband and I have been coming here for date nights, and it never disappoints. The ambiance is intimate and cozy, with low lighting that sets the perfect mood for a special evening. The food is nothing short of exceptional—every dish is crafted with care and bursting with flavor. Yes, it’s on the pricier side, but the quality and experience are worth every penny. The service is attentive without being intrusive, adding to the overall charm of the place. Whether it’s a milestone celebration or just a quiet night to reconnect, this spot has become our go-to for memorable dinners. Highly recommend it for anyone seeking an elegant and romantic dining experience!

Had a fantastic dining experience at Wellingtons of Calgary. The steak was cooked to absolute perfection — exactly how I ordered it. The wine list had some great options, and I found the pricing to be very reasonable for the quality. Service throughout the evening was attentive and friendly without feeling rushed. The overall atmosphere made it a perfect choice for a date night. Definitely looking forward to coming back again soon.

Steak house
Bar
Buchanan's Chop House, located in Calgary, Alberta, is a well-established steakhouse known for its expertise in serving quality Alberta beef. Since 1988, this classic chophouse has been offering a wide selection of steaks, burgers, seafood, and pasta dishes paired with an extensive wine list and one of the largest whisky selections in North America. The restaurant prides itself on using fresh ingredients to create delicious meals from scratch.
So this was our first visit to Buchanan's and I must say we really enjoyed the evening. Sean was our waiter and from the start he was very informative about the history of the restaurant. He was very knowledgeable about the menu and advised us well when we asked questions. We had the Scallops as an appetizer which arrived wrapped in Bacon in a mango carrot puree and were excellent. The only issue I had was there were only 4 scallops and for the price I thought 6 would be more appropriate, but who am I to judge. My partner had the seafood pasta which had a good quantity of seafood and home made pasta which was a definite bonus. I had the Delmonico, with the mashed potatoes and grilled vegetables which were excellent as well. The steak was a nice thick cut that was very good, but did not have the crust that would have made it excellent, but it was still delicious. The wine that Sean recommended was excellent as well, and he took the time to put it in a decanter well before the meal arrived which made it that much better. All in all we enjoyed the food, the staff and the place itself and will definitely be going back.

I used to live in the area and Buchanan's was my partner and my go-to place for drinks and appies. Their fries are our favourite in the city. Wasabi shrimp are outstanding.

We came on a Friday night and there was an extremely rude waiter. Since minute one, his behavior was bad and rude. He threw the to-go boxes to the table when we asked for them and was walking around saying rude words out loud every time he passed close to our table. It was the worst service ever. It's a shame because we've been here several times before because we enjoy the food but with this person I guess it'd be the last time we come. He should be fired immediately. Shame on him! Worst service attitude I ever have. Attached you can see a pic of him for your references.

What a pleasant surprise... I was passing through Calgary and stopped there for lunch yesterday . My server helped me make some wonderful choices...was very familiar with all aspects of the menu...professional and accommodating.

With thanks....we will return.

Major Tom Bar is a stylish rooftop destination located on the 40th floor above Calgary's Stephen Avenue, offering sweeping city views. The bar serves craft cocktails and global fare, with classic dishes given a contemporary twist. The wine selection includes chilled reds and abundant organic options. Known for its exclusive ambiance, delicious cocktails, and amazing food, Major Tom offers revived salad options like the Waldorf salad alongside fresh classics such as Caesar, Citrus, and Golden Beet salads.
I’m visiting from the United States, and dining at Major Tom Restaurant has been one of the highlights of my trip to Calgary. This is truly one of the best steaks I’ve ever had — and that’s saying something! We ordered two salads, the gnocchi (which was rich and flavorful), a large porterhouse steak that was perfectly cooked, plus a few sides and desserts. Every single dish was outstanding. The quality, presentation, and flavors were top-notch. To top it all off, the restaurant has a stunning view of the city, which made the experience even more memorable. The service was excellent, and the overall vibe was refined yet welcoming. I will definitely be coming back the next time I’m in Calgary. If you’re looking for an incredible steakhouse experience, this place is a must-visit.

Overall, great atmosphere albeit pretty loud ambience. The good was simple but elevated experience, my favourite was their endive salad. The chicken was good, crispy, tender but also over salted. Burger had a nice brisket with over-seasoned fries. We had a good experience overall, and the prices are very reasonable given the location and view and overall food quality and portions. Would definitely return!

We had a three course meal and some shareables, as well as drinks. Both were on point. My wife had the cesar salad, duck breast and a dairy free desert. I had the beef tartare, icelandic cod and an afagatto. We shared the glazed pork belly and some truffle fries. It was probably the best meal we’ve had in years. Food, drink and service were flawless. I wish we could remember our waitresses name because she was amazing!
Kirk L — Google review
Fantastic drop in experience that surpassed all expectations. The food was delicious and filling. With the duck being a particular highlight. Rich, full of flavour without stripping the actual flavour of duck out and being tender while not void of texture. The entrees were delightfully flavourful and service was prompt, polite and attentive. We opted for a quick power lunch of two entrees and a main and left far more filled than we could have expected. I only had the peach old fashioned but if that was anything to go by I think any cocktail there is a good bet. The atmosphere was clean, cosy and luxurious. With decor within being art deco/ mid century and put together with such great attention to detail that you had as much a view inside as you did looking out the window. And goodness is the view from the window something to behold. No camera of mine would do it justice but seeing the Calgary skyline and mountains in the distance was spectacular for still being in the downtown area. Highly recommend the experience and if you get the stroke of luck I had. Seeing two peregrine falcons fly towards us and perch outside the window momentarily was an external factor but one that made it all the more memorable.

Major Tom is one of the more premium dining experiences available in Calgary. Located in a downtown highrise the views can't be beat; the ambience gives metropolitan vibe and the food and beverage offering reflect that. The service was top tier and our server kept a good check on us even tho they were perpetually busy. We were by for a quick drink and apps and got the tartare and a few other sides, all delicious and innovative. Major Tom is definitely a place to go and be impressive and be impressed. Recommend for first timers to specify when making a reso a window seat in case they can accommodate you. Finally, Fine Dining but make it cool! I'll be back next time I'm in town.

Major Tom Bar delivers a truly elevated dining experience high above the city. The atmosphere is stylish, the views are stunning, but the kitchen truly steals the show. Steak is a masterclass in preparation—perfectly seared, incredibly tender, and bursting with rich, savory flavor. No order is complete without Major Tots—crispy, savory comfort that perfectly complements the richness of the main course. I highly recommend Beet Salad and Charred Sweet Potato and for Pasta lovers Gnocchi and Campanelle must be tried. With impeccable service and top-tier food, Major Tom is a must-visit destination for an unforgettable, high-end culinary experience✨

We have been excited to try Major Tom since they opened. Yes, the view is pretty impressive and the open space surprises you as you're in a building. We were told to get appies here over main dishes. Thus, we ordered the Major Tots, Oysters on the Half Shell, Yellowfin Tuna Crudo, Hokkaido Scallop Crudo, and Roasted Scallops. My wife had the Oysters on the Half Shell. She said they were fresh and delicious. The Major Tots were impressive. The potatoe-y goodness with crispy exterior was complimented by a cream swirl. While pricey, the tots were worth it. The Yellowfin Tuna Crudo was a fun dish. The crispy squares paired well with the refreshing citrusy yellowfin tuna. Despite a similar name, the Hokkaido Scallop Crudo was served differently. They were on shells with a light acidic touch. Finally, the Roasted Scallops were perfectly cooked. They need nothing else to elevate them. We finished the meal with a Chocolate Millefeuille. It was not too sweet and well-balanced. It was a good ending to a good meal. We highly recommend the appetizers. It's a great place to stop by and grab a bite.

Croquettes were dry instead of juicy and soft, the truffle sauce was a necessity to add some moisture to them. Stuffed ravioli was good but too much oil for "sauce". Lastly I would expect a better steak for the price. In sum, food was a disappointment, drinks and service were good.

Amazing service, atmosphere, and of course food! The stories you've heard about the fried chicken are true: it's delicious! And if you get the shared platter, be prepared to to bring some home. Our servers were attentive made sure that we always had clean dishes and full glasses, and made us feel right at home. I also loved that they had a diverse selection of non-alcoholic beverage: beers, cocktails and even a wine. My only regret is not having enough room to try more food. I'll definitely be back for the octopus.
Thomas L — Google review
After all these years, this is still one of my favourite restaurants in Calgary! Food: oh man, where to start. Basically, you can’t go wrong. For a table of 4, we tried the shrimp toastie, calamari, beef tartare, and… something else yummy (don’t recall what it’s called). And while they are all a hit, we enjoyed the calamari the most. The burger is always solid, but my friends enjoyed the halibut, flat iron steak and the chicken. Model milk does a great job making classics their own and memorable, while also doing the simple things well. Apple pie was a great way to finish such an awesome meal. Service: attentive, friendly, but still elevated enough to make customers feel special and that they are enjoying their time out. Our server however did make an error on our bill. Atmosphere: I love the vibe of model milk, industrial, elevated but not fussy. Great for any night out. Value: for the taste, quality and quantity I think it’s great value. Will be coming back time and time again, and on my highly recommended list! Make sure you make a reservation in advance.

Model milk has great food, ambience, and service. It is more laid back and casual for ambience but has stronger emphasis on food. Some items are great, some are just okay. I would recommend the octopus, calamari, or salad. The fried chicken wasn’t bad but it wasn’t exactly special either. Service was excellent. The waitress was very attentive and helped my friend who had a few too many drinks prior to dinner.

This place definitely superseded my expectations. From the moment I walked in the door and was seated with my guest. The attentiveness from every single staff member that approaches your table. Complete full description as they place the plate down. We shared the fry bread, which was overflowing with flavors, the calamari which is not your typical restaurant style this is pan fried to perfection, the hot chicken meal with coleslaw and buttermilk biscuits is to die for, perfect spice for a Nashville hot. Now my favorite part of every meal and the only thing I took pictures of desert. The apple pie with white cheddar in the crust, not to sweet but packed with apples, the chocolate desert was so smooth, rich a complete balance of dark chocolate and strawberry cream. Definitely a returning customer.

READ IF YOUVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT TRYING THIS PLACE *** Model Milk has been on my bucket list for a long time, and I am so glad I finally went. From start to finish, it was an incredible experience. The staff made me feel so well cared for, especially Keenan and Levi, who went above and beyond with their service. My water glass was always full, everyone was attentive without being overbearing, and when I returned from the washroom to find a fresh cloth napkin waiting for me, I truly felt looked after in the most thoughtful way. Dining alone here felt comfortable and special. When I was waiting for my Uber outside after dinner, a staff member even came to check if I wanted water or needed anything, which was just another example of how great and caring the service is. The food was outstanding. The chefs deserve special compliments for the octopus, which was hands down some of the best I’ve ever had, completely on par with the fresh octopus I once enjoyed off the coast of Antalya. The honey butter buns are exactly everything you dream they would be: warm, rich, and addictive. And the espresso martinis? Impossible to have just one, they were that delicious. The atmosphere is vibrant yet welcoming, with a star quality that makes you feel like you’re part of something special the moment you sit down. I can’t say enough good things about Model Milk. If you’ve been thinking about going, don’t wait any longer. Treat yourself. Just do it. Wear the dress. And GO! whether with friends, a partner, or even on your own. This place is absolutely *worth it*

Rge Rd embodies Alberta's landscape on a plate, showcasing the region's bountiful cuisine through its farmer-friendly approach and hyperlocal sourcing.
By far the best put together 6 course meal of all time. We got to try two brand new dishes that were as amazing as the rest of our dinner. Serving staff were awesome and walked us through course highlights like how each course was made and by whom, special ingredients and techniques used, and they certainly seemed to enjoy their job. It was fun to watch other patrons as they tasted courses that we had tried 15 mins earlier. Very friendly crowd and I can't wait to return to try something new again!!

We ordered Flank and Bison. Flank was very flavourful with very rich beef taste. Flank wasn’t melt-in-mouth kind of steak, but it was tender. I loved it very much. Bison tasted more chewy with more fat. My friend liked it. Alena was very friendly and knowledgeable. Service was top-notch! Highly recommend this place if you want fresh and high quality steaks.

Amazing experience right from the moment we walked in (smells incredible!) to the end of the night. The servers are all very knowledgeable, the food is amazing, the cocktails were awesome. We did the tasting menu and it was INCREDIBLE. I’ve personally never had a steak this good in my life. As major foodies who’ve tried many restaurants all over the world, this was a 10/10.

Great service. They are attentive and clean even the smallest of crumbs. The tartar does not stand out. The scotch egg was good. Most importantly the 6oz top sirloin (medium rare) was *tough*. It was a very big let down and was suppose to be the highlight because I was excited to try “Alberta beef”. Unfortunately, for such a well known restaurant.. I wouldn’t recommend to my friends.

Wanting to try one of Edmonton’s top restaurants known for its farm to fresh concept, we celebrated my wife’s birthday and splurged on the tasting menu. The restaurant is cozy and homey with comfortable atmosphere that’s small but not cramped. The staff is extremely professional and friendly and explained all the dishes. The wine menu offers a small selection of half bottles which is nice because like most fine dining experiences, all the others are in the $150-200 a bottle range which is not worth it when the meal is already $110 each. They also have reasonably priced local craft beer and various cocktails. My wife had a decent glass of a red wine from Greece which we didn’t even know exported wine. Unfortunately, the food itself didn’t “wow” me the way tasting menus should. It started with gazpacho which was quite good but may have been the highlight. Bison tartare was good but not great. Pasta was angel hair with a Taber Corn sauce. While I appreciate the notion of locally sourced seasonal food, creamed corn isn’t a good match for pasta and failed for me. The meat was defiantly a disappointment. In my opinion, smoked brisket is the cheapest cut of meat a fine restaurant might offer and it doesn’t belong on the menu if a $110 meal. While I don’t expect ribeye which they charge over $200 for, a tip sirloin or similar cut would’ve been appreciated. Served with charred kale and a large portion of what’s really baked beans, the main lacks creativity for my money. The dessert was just OK and should always stand out at the end of an expensive six course meal. No one flavor stood out and the raspberry sauce was way too minuscule to appreciate. Overall not a bad experience but for $319, I excepted one of the best dining experiences possible and if this it for Edmonton, we’ll save our money for European vacations. Sorry.

Michelin quality food for top tier high street prices. We absolutely loved it and fairly shed a tear at the thought we will never eat here again. Simply faultless. We ate a là carte and had the elk, bison, chocolate Swiss roll and cherry ice cream, as well as two wonderful glasses of Canadian red wine.

I'd like to state I am personally very critical of the food im eating as I grew up in a house of cooks and I myself can cook so I do judge food very harshly. my personal thing is "it should be better than my own kitchen". That said I did the road trip and I loved the experience of it and the presentation, it was wonderful. On the other hand the taste of the dishes yet unique and complex wasnt something that made me think "omg this is amazing". I understand this is for an experience, but the portions and taste to price ratio I just can not justify it, im sorry. In the end the service was amazing food was ok but nothing to wow me unfortunately.

Top quality food with top notch service and considering the cost of going anywhere these days, reasonable prices. Not cheap, but neither is the service or flavour. Absolutely worth it. Rob was my service. Hats off to his service.

Its central location on Stephen Avenue offers a large outdoor seating area, perfect for people-watching or taking a break from shopping. The menu features Alberta staples like the chuck burger, maple glazed short rib, and a 32-ounce dry-aged Tomahawk steak.
Five-Star Experience at The Guild My family and I had such a wonderful time on Canada Day at The Guild! The service was absolutely excellent attentive and friendly. Every bite of the food was delicious The patio was a highlight: beautifully decorated for Stampede, it added a festive, cozy touch to the whole experience. And as a bonus they were incredibly welcoming to my dog and took great care of him too, which made the visit even more special. The ambiance, the food, the staff it all came together to create a fantastic outing.

Had dinner here with my family and we were blown away with the service, attention to detail and the amazing food. The open airy feeling of the dining room in the historic Hudson's Bay building was inspiring. I had the pasta and it was just delicious.

The burger was excellent. Had all the basic elements but they were all very well done. The bun retained its integrity which was key. Fries were ok but the burger did shine. Had calamari and devilled eggs as well. They were kind of how you would expect. Device was quite slow even though the patio wasn’t that busy. I would go again for a business lunch. It’s a pricey option for sure.

Unforgettable experience!! My partner and I had the absolute best dining experience we’ve ever had thanks to John and Krice. From the moment we sat down, their service was warm, attentive, and full of special touches that elevated every course. The kitchen clearly put so much care into each dish — we had the porterhouse steak and can confidently say it was the best steak either of us have ever had. We’re from Toronto, but this meal alone has us planning our next trip back to Calgary. The Guild — and especially John and Krice — made it that memorable. Thank you for an unforgettable night! One we will remember for a long time 🫶🏻

Great service ! Mains: Tenderloin was perfection. What steak dreams are made of. Crispy edges. Good texture. Pink throughout.extremely tender. Packed full of flavor 10/10 this is a tie for with hys. Ribeye my boyfriend loved his and said it was good. Gnocchi, although listed as a main it was actually perfect for an appetizer for two to share. My boyfriend and I both loved it. And he named it “the best gnocchi” he’s ever had. I liked that there was a variety of mushrooms and they were cooked well into the sauce. However, I did notice right away that the sauce had flour that wasn’t properly cooked/combined or simply just too much. The flour taste was notable right away and there was a gritty texture in your mouth. My partner agreed. Nonetheless, the dish overall was very tasty, it was certainly something we could look past! Maybe a fluke / off day with the sauce. But we will be back for this one again. Porter house - no comment. There was an issue with the meat freshness, when brought to the staffs attention they quickly resolved the issue by bringing us new steaks. We understand mistakes happen. But unfortunately no review here for that reason Drinks: TKO expresso martini - a true dessert drink, perfect for sipping alongside a good meal. Impactful flavor. Tequila isn’t prominent. Material girl - very girly. Very cutesy. Very demure. whiskey ginger + lime - a crowd pleaser. Anyone would love this! The glenlivet 12 year - good find. Nice aroma. Smooth. Sides: Mashed potato’s: the presentation was nice, they were good! Not omg amazing. But good. The beets and walnuts - could have used some kind of coating or sauce of any kind as the walnuts are dry and just fall to the bottom so.. hard to get the walnuts and beet together without on a fork for the flavor combination. Mushrooms - very much just plain mushrooms w some butter/oil. Really nothing special.

Restaurant
Sawmill Prime Rib & Steak House is a trendy restaurant located in Edmonton West, offering a diverse menu that includes appetizers, soups, salads, mains, steak & prime rib options, as well as an extensive selection of cocktails, wines and desserts. The restaurant also features a patio for outdoor dining. Additionally, Sawmill hosts special events such as the Valentine's Day Burlesque Cabaret with a 3-course meal and live cabaret burlesque show.
We came in for the weekend brunch with our family. Brunch is Saturday and Sunday 1030-230pm. And I thought it was a really fair price and had excellent selection. Kids 5 and under eat for free. Ages 6-12 cost $12.95. Ages 12-17 cost $19.95. Adults are $34.95. We came in through the Sawmill doors but noticed that half of the place has been changed and is called: The Mill | Craft Bar + Kitchen. It seems all blended together but we did end up being seated more on The Mill side; so I’m not sure if access to the brunch mattered with which side of the restaurant you sat on but it didn’t seem so to me. The website really isn’t clear or easy to navigate and nowhere on either website can I easily find information about the price of the brunch. When we did arrive the brunch was the only thing they were offering us so it made our choice very simple, but I’m not sure if it was because we came during brunch time so the main menu wasn’t available? Seemed kind of strange. I enjoyed the huge breakfast/lunch selection of foods. We saw: egg benedict, sausage, bacon, waffles, fish, ribs, prime rib, salad bar, potatoes, yogurt. I especially loved the fresh fruit next to the chocolate fountain. There was a table of desserts: plenty of cheesecakes and small cake options. Our server and the servers in general were all friendly and engaged with us even if we weren’t at the table. Not hesitating to listen and bring us water, our plates always being cleared quickly. The brunch was quite popular and so both sides of the restaurant were very full when we initially arrived around 11/1130am but luckily our group of 7 were still able to get in and get seated. Overall I could see us coming here again to enjoy the brunch.

Celebrated our anniversary here. Love the ambience of the place, perfect for a date night. Ordered the house wine, calamari and crab stuffed mushroom for appetizer. Not an overwhelming serving size but just enough for two to share. For mains, we ordered the center cut strip loin in medium rare, cooked to perfection. My husband got the prime rib which I would say is the star of the menu. Meat was very tender and flavourful. Even the sides that came with it were also good. The price justify the taste. Overall love the dining experience here and would come back.

Edit: Went back today and service was quite terrible. Had to ask for service. After we received our food, not once did the server ask how it was. 30 minutes had passed (with visuals of our server conversing with other staff at the bar) before we got another visit which was only to pick up the dirty dishes. Food was ordered again (appetizer) and with no one else in the restaurant it still took 15 minutes to receive our food. Again not one visit to check on it which was only to grab the dirty dishes. We even try it to get ours server's attention multiple times. Overall, disappointing. Previous: Food was pretty good. Happy hour gives 15% off shareables

Boleroyyc is a high-end Brazilian steakhouse that offers all you can eat salads and desserts bar, as well as table-side skewered meats brought in frequent rounds. Highly recommend the Boleros caramelized pineapple for satisfying your sweet tooth. The garlic parmesan strip loin, picanha and bacon-wrapped tournedos sticks are seen on the grill, making it a very tasty experience.
Holy cow, Alberta beef rocks! Bolero must know the magic to cook it right with simple seasoning. I've been to rodizio many times in the States, but Bolero gave us a new definition. I tried every meat items and noticed the beef taste significantly better. Our waiter Paul explained to us that Alberta beef is grass fed, while the US farmers usually feed the cows with grains such as corn. Grass fed beef tastes more natural and leaner thus more expensive. Hay bales are everywhere outside the City. The service is great, every meat items stated on the menu kept coming. I highly recommend their rip eye, pork rips and pineapple. We ordered brownie for dessert, the brownie was surprisingly warm and soft, not too sweet. Paul told me that the dessert was made in house with simple ingredients, not corn syrup, which pretty much explained everything. Paul is a teacher working part time here. I love hard working people and thank Paul for his great service and lessons.

I’ve been to Bolero many times over the past 5+ years and it’s always been a fun and enjoyable experience. The Brazilian steakhouse style with plenty of meat options with the full rodizio is nice, and the grilled pineapple is a standout. I do feel that the overall quality has declined over the years, from visit to visit. The food is still good, and the service and atmosphere are excellent.

Amazing experience! We had Ryan as our waiter and he checked in multiple times to ensure we got the cuts of meat that we wanted. All the meat was very, very delicious and well worth the price. Our favourite was the caramelized pineapple! I’ve gone to gaucho (also a Brazilian steakhouse farther down MacLeod) and this place has to be superior! All the waiters were very friendly, wishing me a happy birthday and asking if we wanted more. I had also gotten a free dessert, it was a coconut crème brûlée, delicious of course. Would recommend.

Japanese Village Steak House is an authentic hibachi restaurant that perfectly embodies tradition. At this establishment, diners can gather around a flat-top grill at every table, where skilled hibachi chefs impress guests with their dazzling tricks and cooking techniques. This venue is not just for dining; it offers a fun-filled show as well. It's an excellent choice for post-pandemic gatherings, providing both delicious food and lively entertainment.
First time going to Japanese Village and we had a wonderful time! There is so much energy in the restaurant from all of the hibachis and their chefs. You can hear them singing and joking with the patrons, it is a very interactive experience and great for a larger group. I ordered the salmon, and my partner ordered the steak and shrimp. It started with a soup and salad, then rice, grilled vegetables and your protein of choice.After your meal you also get ice cream. With a few beers, our total with tip came to $120 which we thought was great. They are also very efficient, it only took one hour start to finish for our whole evening. I am sure it takes longer with a larger group (only 6 at our table). But it was nice that they were so efficient if you had plans somewhere else after. I am already excited to go again!

My family and I had a great experience at this location. The food was great but since we dine out a lot some other places have really set the bar high for us. But overall still good. We had shrimp(app), lobster mac and cheese, 7 oz steak, prime rib, a burger, and chicken and fries (kids). Would still recommend this location as an option to family and friends. They also have children's menu when you ask. The service was great and clean. If you wanted to bring a stroller in, there would be enough space to bring your little one. They also have a change table in the washroom.

Just stopping in Calgary during a road trip, and this was definitely the place to go! My mother, father and I came here craving steak today, and this restaurant certainly delivered. The service was excellent. I’m pretty sure this is some of the best service ive ever received at a restaurant. Our server was not only proffesional, kind, and friendly, but really walked us through the menu with ease. Thank you so much. While my mom and I both had the NY striploin, my dad had the Ribeye and all of our meals were delicious. Steak perfectly cooked, extremely tender, and the sides were even really good. 100% recommend this place especially if your just stopping in Calgary!

My husband and I are visiting my son and his girlfriend and my son said that he had heard good things about your restaurant so we thought we’d try it out. So glad we did!!! The ambiance in the restaurant is so inviting and cozy. The food was incredible, I especially enjoyed the Brie appetizer so yummy. All of the steaks that were ordered from our table were cooked perfectly ranging from blue rare to well done. The drinks that I enjoyed were perfectly made. But really put the cherry on top was the staff. The manger checked with us a few times very friendly but our server Lauren she was amazing. So very friendly and she really took care of us with checking in with us. She helped me out when I talked to her on the side and said that I wanted to pay the bill and I knew my son would fight me on this so she helped me by suggesting that when she would come to the table and ask if anyone wanted any dessert that would be my clue to then meet her at the front to scoop up the bill and pay without my son knowing, it worked perfectly! Thank you to the amazing staff for making our night out so special. Next time we’re in town we will definitely come back. ☺️

Pampa Brazilian Steakhouse offers an interactive dining experience with a delightful Brazilian Churrascaria-style setting. The restaurant provides tableside Rodizio service, where servers bring skewers of various meats and carve them onto your plate for all-you-can-eat dining. The Southern Brazilian grilling method involves using skewers in a charcoal or gas-fueled rotisserie, seasoning beef only with sea salt and marinating other meats before grilling.
I’ve always had a deep love for Brazilian-style meat, and this place delivers a fantastic variety. The meats come out fast, hot, and expertly carved right at your table—fresh off the grill. I still remember when it first opened, there was a beautiful open wood fire that added a rich, smoky flavor to the meats. Sadly, that signature touch seems to be missing now. The grilled pineapple is a great addition—sweet, caramelized, and the perfect complement to the savory cuts. The salad bar is refreshing and pairs well with the meats, though I do wish it offered a bit more in terms of warm dishes, as the hot options were quite limited. Service was top-notch. The staff were always friendly, welcoming, and incredibly attentive throughout the meal.

Not what I was expecting. I have been to different places in town that charge you less for the full rodizio and the food is way better. I made a reservation to celebrate my wife’s birthday and they knew it was her birthday so they gave her a free desert. It was two tiny pieces of meringue cookies and 2 tiny pieces of chocolate (compared to other places where you get a full size piece of cake on the house). The food tasted weird, not even tasted like beef. The service was ok, our server was too pushy regarding the drinks menu. When we asked about the weird taste of the beef they said “oh it tastes like beef”and that’s it. I do not recommend this place, it’s more expensive than other options in town and the food it’s not the best.

Absolutely fantastic experience at Pompa Steakhouse! The atmosphere is beautiful and welcoming, the service was attentive without being intrusive, and every dish we tried was cooked to perfection. The steaks were incredibly tender and flavorful—honestly some of the best in Calgary. A special thank you to Calvin who was super helpful and kind. We asked about cumin, and he actually took the time to look into it and bring us the information. It was such a wonderful experience thanks to his warm and thoughtful service. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a memorable meal in a gorgeous setting. Can’t wait to come back!

Steak house
Chop Steakhouse & Bar is a casual dining spot with a commitment to sustainable beef sourcing, proudly displaying the CRSB Certified Mass Balance mark on its beef. Located conveniently close to hotels in Calgary, it offers a welcoming ambiance and professional, friendly staff. The dining room features tasteful decor and spacious ceilings, creating an impressive atmosphere. Guests have praised the perfectly cooked steaks that melt in your mouth and the fresh-tasting vegetables.
What’s a visit to Chop without steak? Opted for the lighter, shareable and happy hour version of steak bites…. Delicious! And a new favourite! A great option if you are keto, or in our case, paired with a beet salad and pineapple upside down cake (as recommended by our lovely server). They made it extra special with a happy birthday note. The patio is spacious and enjoyed the interior as well.

Great dining experience with some work colleagues. Service was good, no auto gratuity on our small group of 7 which was nice. Baby back ribs were moist and tender. Sides were a bit lacking but overall a tasty meal.

Everything at Chop Steakhouse was absolutely exquisite! My steak was cooked to perfection and just melted in my mouth. I especially loved the mushroom dip with goat cheese—rich, creamy, and unforgettable. To top it off, they surprised us with cake and coffee for our birthdays! Joani, was exceptionally attentive and friendly. She went above and beyond—chatting with us, offering amazing service, and even making a handwritten birthday card with a message in Filipino. Such a thoughtful and unforgettable dining experience. Highly recommended!

I really enjoy the restaurant. What a wonderful atmosphere. We had an excellent server. Good choice and bar drinks. Others that are tabled had wine and commented on the selection as well. I enjoy the prime rib which was awesome. Always remember to ask for the ground or horseradish.

We had a birthday celebration 🎊🎉🎊 and used their semi private room. The staff was really nice and professional, The ambiance was good, the price of the meal was similar to other similar entities. What is true is that the food prices have gone up. For the room, with the separation, you are still in the open. Sometimes our outburst would flow into the space. If there is a way to make it a more private space, that would be great.

So my bf and I are on the mission of finding the best place for steaks in Calgary and I think we just found it. We were going elsewhere, but at the last moment, my bf decided to take us here. And let me tell you, it was amazing. Right from the start, hostesses were so nice and polite, greeting us. I got a compliment on my outfit. All the ladies, dressed very professional, smiling and giving out a very great vibe. The place is beautiful. Decor and atmosphere is on point. Other than fake antlers 🫎 light fixture, didn't like that. Our server was Dre. Very sweet young man. Very knowledgeable. Polite and funny. Outgoing. He recommended us mushroom and goat cheese dip with croustinis. Yummy! And since it was our first time there, he told the chef about us and he made us a little appetizer of tuna tartar on a chip with spicy mayo, on the house. We both ordered steak Oscar. My bf had baked potato and I had cauliflower mash. Everything was so delicious 🤤. Definitely, best steak 🥩 in town, so far! So tender and juicy, just melts in your mouth. Just amazing Alberta beef! I had zero proof berry shrub drink. So yummy! Atmosphere 5/5, food 5/5 and service 5/5. We even talked to the ladies at the next table, and they said, they always come to chop and love the food and the service. They also agreed that Dre is a great server with great attitude. Very upbeat and energetic. We are definitely coming back! Overall, 5 stars ⭐! All employees were super polite and smiling. We just felt so welcomed 🤗. And we weren't even planning on going to this restaurant. Serendipity 🥰🥰🥰 So if you want great service, amazing food and drinks and be in a beautiful ambience environment, this is the place for you! And on top of that, prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality of food! Very pleasantly surprised. Definitely suggest to try this place out and ask for Dre to serve you. You won't regret it!

Had their wings, steak bites and prime rib, with creme brulee as dessert during a company gathering, service was phenomenal, first time at this location, the place looks amazing and very roomy. Steak bites were a little dry and tough, which worried me about what to expect from my main course. However, the prime rib came out perfectly as I preferred it. Sides were ok that accompanied it. Definitely would come back!

More of a high end restaurant which can be seen the moment you step in: from the design, decor, staff and attention to details. Big and clean washrooms. The food is what you expect from this type of establishment and did not disappoint. The only thing is that we did not get one of the items that we ordered. In this case it wasn't really a deal but it did happen.

Modern Steak Kensington is a steakhouse that sources its beef and seafood locally. The menu features sophisticated cocktails and wines, making it the perfect place to host an event.
This place is a steak lover's dream come true. They specialize in top-quality beef, and they serve an amazing Tomahawk - a massive, bone-in ribeye that's as delicious as it is impressive. But let's not stop there - every steak on their menu is cooked to perfection and bursting with flavour. They source their beef from local Alberta ranchers. The truffle fries are crispy and flavourful, and the mac and cheese is rich and creamy. They also have an extensive wine list that pairs perfectly with the steaks. But what really sets Modern Steak apart is the atmosphere. The decor is modern and chic, with cozy booths and dim lighting that makes for a perfect date night spot or a fun night out with friends. The service is top-notch too - the staff members are friendly, knowledgeable, and and made my dining experience the best it could be.

We came here for dinner around 6:30 pm. It wasn't too busy as there were several tables left empty. It was our first time coming here. Was recommended by a few friends of ours. Our server was very friendly and really paid close attention to detail. Our order was repeated back also with a few suggestions on the sides. The popcorn on the table was so good. The truffle oil on the popcorn was a nice touch. We couldn't stop eating it. The Modern Caesar salad was good. That came out fairly quick and had no complaints there. Our entree did take a very long time to come out. Found ourselves waiting and even our server had to apologize for the long wait. We got the ribeye tasting and it was okay. The best ribeye was the Modern Bench. Which was surprising cause I've had the Brant Lake Waygu at other restaurants and was blown away. The waygu here was not as tender or flavourful. We found the steaks to be very heavily salted. Even the mac and cheese and fried were very salty. The brussels sprouts was very good and really helped cut the salt. The asparagus was fine as well. Nothing to write home about on those. The food overall was good. Only complaint was it was over seasoned and took a very long time to come out. Our server was awesome, she really took care of us.

If you are a steak or seafood foodie, Modern Steak Kensington is the perfect choice for you. Chic, yet elegant atmosphere with electric music in the background. Our meal took us on a journey. With recommendations from our waiter, Brad, we started with the truffle oil popcorn on to the main courses of salmon and steak, which both were cooked to perfection. Desserts were Baked Alaska and warm chocolate cake. Reservations highly recommended. This is a meal you will want to take time and savor. Side note: Modern Steak has a wonderful menu for groups larger than 2.

We loved our experience at Modren steak. The steak was the best we've ever had. The mushrooms and potatoes were to live for. Next time I'd skip the lobster tails.. they were underwhelming. The wagu dumplings were okay... would probably try a different appetizer next time. My husband loved the old fashions. Service was prompt and friendly. Would definitely recommend.

An experience of luxury at a reasonable price. Complimentary truffle popcorn starts the dining experience off on the right note. The food is scrumptious of course. Their wagyu is expertly done. But it is the ambiance which brings the flavors to life. From the courteous servers to the dim lights and soft music. Everything fills the space but doesn't overwhelm and allows for a magical evening over delicious food. Situated in Kensington, parking is not hard to find and the location is easy to access. Treat yourself!

What a fantastic meal. I took the wife out for her birthday and was not disappointed. Our server was Patrick, and he helped us through the evening. After a great explanation of the menu and a recommendation, we went with the filet trio. Absolutely amazing quality, cooked perfectly medium rare. 👌 As I don't drink, Patrick made me a fresh non-alcoholic mojito, It was delicious. He really went out of his way to make our night special. Thank you, Patrick. Went with Creme Brule and baked Alaska for dessert, which ended the meal perfectly.

LUX Steakhouse + BAR94 is a sophisticated chophouse located in downtown Edmonton. It offers dry-aged beef, a raw bar, and classic cocktails in a modern and polished setting. The restaurant has a rich history, having rebranded from its original name to introduce Bar 94, which contributed to its popularity. The menu features gourmet options like bison carpaccio, prawn cocktail, and the indulgent surf and turf platter for sharing.
One of the city's better places for steak -- a nice, trendy alternative over The Keg or Chop. The ribeye is always a great choice. Also would recommend trying out the bacon appetizer dish. There is a very capable bar service here and the drinks selection is pretty decent.

The customer service was beyond exceptional! Everyone went out of their way to make sure we were okay and having a good time. It was also my mom’s birthday, and the staff surprised her with a birthday card which was very thoughtful! For the food, the portions were good the taste was amazing. The burger patties were well cooked and moist, the buns were soft. Everything was easy to chew. Although the truffle fries were a bit greasy, it did not take away from the taste: I will definitely be recommending this place! Kudos to the staff!

Ordered 94’s chicken sandwich with their Caesar salad. Excellent choice for lunch- the bread was soft with a really well-seasoned chicken fillet, and probably the best part, it had avocado slices in it. The salad used real bacon, the lettuce was crisp, the cheese was sharp, and the fresh lemon wedge was a nice touch. Although I found the salad to be lightly dressed, it was great. Quick service, made it in and out within the hour for lunch time.

I'm from ontario and here for work. Was told that Lux steakhouse had the best steaks and that I needed to try it out. If I had to use one word to describe the food it would be INCREDIBLE!! Got the dry aged ribeye, the flavour profile was out of this world. Found myself taking smaller bites just to savour it more. For my side I got the lobster Mac and cheese and even though I normally not a fan of most Mac and cheese this dish is devine! The dessert and my espresso was fantastic as well. I found the staff super friendly and eager to help. And the atmosphere was super classy. Next time I'm in Edmonton I'll be sure to go again, as it was my best meal I've eaten out in a very long time. I'd highly recommend!!

I often heard my friends recommend it, but I didn’t understand why they were so excited about it. I decided to check if it was really so delicious there. And how shocked I was when I didn’t know what I wanted to try and they picked up food and drinks to my taste, it was a 10/10 hit 🤩 the food was very tasty, special thanks to the person who makes such wonderful meat, you have talent. The atmosphere is great, the staff is friendly, the chefs know their stuff and I’m sure they have a great future with such talent. I will now, like all my friends, recommend this place with such enthusiasm. I recommend coming and experiencing this combination of atmosphere with great food and pleasant service!

The service and food here is beyond amazing, I had just chosen to go here on a whim and it turned out to be the best steak place ever. The staff are excellent, we had personal conversations and the manager of the store had come to personally ask how our meal was. It was also my boyfriend’s birthday and they had gone out of their way to give him a personalized birthday card. Is it expensive? yes but for this quality of food and service I would have spent double. Also what steak houses aren’t expensive these days, I cannot explain enough how amazing this experience was. 10/10 We will come back every-time we’re in Edmonton. (also the oysters are BEYOND delish)

Service was great. But honestly, the food was less than expected for such high prices. $70 for a steak that includes no add ons or sides, and honestly didn't taste any better than a $20 steak from the market. The sides all tasted good, but are pricey. Overall a disappointing experience for an upscale steakhouse.

Bridgette Bar is a trendy spot in Calgary's Beltline neighborhood, boasting a 60s and 70s-inspired interior with a wood-burning fireplace, hanging plants, art, and even wall-mounted motorcycles. The restaurant offers an ever-changing menu of contemporary comfort food, featuring small and large plates cooked on a large wood-burning grill. Diners can enjoy dishes like the creamy Smoked Potato Puree and Maple BBQ Rainbow Trout alongside unique cocktails.
First of all, this is one of the best places I’ve been to in Calgary. Usually, there’s always something I don’t like at a restaurant — but this place is different. Is it possible for everything to be perfect? Yes, everything here was amazing. Our server was Ms. Sofia — she was very friendly and welcoming. The cleanliness of the restaurant, the attentiveness of the staff — everything was just excellent. I will definitely come back here again. If I had to rate it out of 10, I’d say 11. That’s how good this place is. I absolutely recommend it.

We recently dined at Bridgette Bar to celebrate my wife's birthday, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance set the tone — warm, stylish, and buzzing with energy. The decor strikes a perfect balance between modern sophistication and cozy charm, making it ideal for both casual nights out and special occasions. We started with a selection of small plates, including the fried eggplant, octopus salad, a tuna dish, and garlic bread — every bite was flavorful and beautifully presented. The pasta with shrimp and squid was our main course, and it was perfectly cooked, rich in taste without being overpowering. The service deserves a special mention. The staff were attentive, friendly, and went out of their way to make our celebration feel special — they even set up the table with a thoughtful birthday touch, which really elevated the evening. We also enjoyed a few craft cocktails, and they were just as impressive as the food — well-balanced and creative. Overall, Bridgette Bar delivered on every front — incredible food, inviting atmosphere, and outstanding service. Whether you're celebrating a milestone or just looking for a great night out, this spot is well worth a visit.

Bridgette bar has a very charming yet sophisticated environment. The staff are very professional and engaged and able to answer any questions you have. We got 6 dishes between 3 of us which was a good amount. We started with the beat salad, which was a favorite of ours, the whipped feta with it and the nuts were all a great texture and flavor combination together. The eggplant sticks were highly recommended, however, we found them a bit disappointing, texture was great, but lacking flavor. The burrata was tasty, but I wish that it came with more than just a jelly with it, having more elements would make it pop more. It was very sweet and under seasoned in my opinion. The grilled cauliflower was very tasty, and has a delicious umami sauce with it. We lastly got the salami pizza. It was delicious, but the center of the pizza was too wet and falling apart a bit. Overall the food was all tasty, but for the price and reputation I did expect better. Would like to try it again.

e service here was excellent and friendly, attentive, and made the experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. The food had some real highlights: the eggplant fries were crispy and addictive, the lamb sausage was packed with flavor, and the wood-grilled beef strip steak was cooked perfectly and full of smoky richness. Highly recommend pairing your meal with an Old Fashioned, it was well-balanced and one of the better ones I’ve had. That said, the beef carpaccio with mushrooms was underwhelming and didn’t match the quality of the other dishes. Still, overall a great spot and worth checking out for the standout plates and vibe.

Went for a birthday dinner. The host that we first interacted with wasn't overly welcoming. Our server Hannah made up for it. She was great, friendly, helpful, recommended dishes, wine and confirmed what options there are for celiac friendly dishes. We started with the tuna crudo, which was good. Ordered the steak and lamb to share, with a side of asparagus. There was a longer delay between the appetizer and main which was fine. We received the lamb then waited about another 5-8 minutes for the steak and another 5-8 minutes for the asparagus. Lamb and steak were delicious, perfectly cooked. The asparagus wasn't worth it, the sauce was tasty but there was a lot of water on the plate, the asparagus was cool and very woody. We shared a cake dessert, can't recall the name that was lighter, celiac friendly and Hannah added a nice touch with a sparkler. Just after our mains were served the lights were dimmed to the point we could hardly see our food in the corner we were in. It's expensive so if going be prepared to spend anywhere from $75-$100/person at minimum. Overall, we enjoyed the experience.

This was a restaurant I had been wanting to try for a while. The first time we came, it was during happy hour and the place was packed, so we gave up. This time, we visited after the lunch rush. We were seated right away, and our server came promptly so ordering was smooth. She was very friendly and pleasant. My husband and I shared a few dishes, and everything was delicious. The pizza especially impressed me—the flavor was outstanding, slightly sweet, maybe from the onions? I forgot to check later, but it was truly amazing. There were two things that I felt could be improved. First, I wish they had provided separate plates for appetizers and pizza. Since the appetizer had a sauce, using the same plate took away from the nice crispiness of the pizza. For a place that isn’t exactly inexpensive, that little detail matters. The second issue, unfortunately, really changed my overall impression. Another staff member (possibly the host or manager?) was clearing dirty dishes. On the way to the kitchen, a fork fell to the floor. Instead of picking it up, he kicked it with his foot all the way into the kitchen. Having worked in the food industry myself, I found this unacceptable. He was not our server. Our sever was nice lady. It’s a shame, because the food was truly excellent, but that one moment left me questioning whether I would return.

We had to spend the night in Calgary and went to the Sheraton. Having the only one choice of restaurant left at 9pm we went to Carver's and boy was I pleasantly surprised with such a great experience. We chose the $39 two course to dine in. I love the food they served us some breads as we waited for our starters, starters were phenomenal! Then a surprise palate cleanser from the chef :O tantalising! The entrees were also great! The only criticism I have is perhaps their portions were big for what they offer dinning in. I will definitely be back!!

At OMO Teppan and Kitchen, diners can enjoy a unique dining experience as they watch skilled teppanyaki chefs prepare their meals with impressive flair and entertaining tricks. The restaurant offers multi-course teppan meals with a selection of protein options, but takes special pride in its beef offerings.
What an entertainment experience! We went for the $35 6-oz NY strip night on my birthday; as haven’t done table-side service in many many years + looked at the reviews in choosing OMO. For $35 per person, the entertainment and hospitality produced by chef Tom and server Jessica was worth the price alone! Plus starter salad, 2 shrimp, soup, a plethora of veggies, rice, and the steak at that price point was just gravy on top. If you’re looking for a memorable moment to celebrate with family, or just to have a cool experience, I highly recommend. Bellies full, and face hurting from all the laughter that Chef Tom provided!! We’ve already made plans to come back!

My girlfriend and I came here with three other families and the energy was amazing birthdays being celebrated all around us, laughter at every table, and such a fun atmosphere. The chefs were not only hilarious and entertaining but also seriously talented. Every dish was absolutely delicious, and to our surprise, it was actually quite affordable for the quality and experience you get. This is more than just dinner it’s a destination.

Celebrated my son's 13th here. Very lively vibe inside, appeared to be popular for birthdays. Kudos to Vincent for the entertainment, really funny. Food was great, I felt we over ordered as by the time our mains were cooked and served I only managed a small bite from the steak. I highly recommend the Wagyu Fusion Roll (we had other rolls too but this stood out in flavor). We stuck to the selections under the Classic Teppan meals which includes miso soup, salad, veggies, shrimp and a choice(s) of meat. Overall experience was memorable. I'd come back with a larger appetite. And no we didn't have the staff sing happy birthday, not my son's thing but we did hear it at other tables (he found it cringe). Worth mentioning, they accommodated us on short notice (a couple of hours?), for context it was a Friday evening and busy.

For our first date night in five months - since we’d been traveling with our kids - and to celebrate our 15th anniversary, we discovered OMO, and we were completely charmed! We arrived on a Thursday evening without a reservation and were warmly welcomed. We were seated at a table that would soon be joined by a chef. We ordered the Date Night menu, which was both delicious and reasonably priced. The chef’s performance was fantastic - we loved his enthusiasm and energy. To celebrate our anniversary, they surprised us with a sweet card featuring a photo they had just taken of us, souvenir chopsticks, and a small dessert. The owner even came to chat with us and kindly prepared a dish for us to take home to our kids. Service, food, overall experience: 10/10! We’ll definitely be back and can’t wait to share this amazing spot with our family and friends.

This place is top notch. Do not miss out. Gorgeous building, awesome interior done in a beautiful brick historic building, staff are second to none. Sidney was our server and wow she was absolutely perfect. Food was really awesome. Eggs benny, lintel soup, kale salad and very quality cocktails. They also have a full on espresso machine / bar. Windows are wooden historic floor to ceiling and definitely sit in the sun by the beautiful windows and enjoy the downtown life which sipping on your coffee or drink. I highly appreciate this place and its vibes. Thank you Sidney. We will definitely be back very soon. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Absolutely Outstanding! We had an incredible experience at DOSC in Edmonton. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The service was truly exceptional — attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly without being overbearing. The food was nothing short of amazing. Every dish was crafted with care, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. You can really taste the high quality of the ingredients — everything was fresh, perfectly cooked, and thoughtfully balanced. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just looking for a top-tier dining experience, DOSC is a must-visit. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Lovely drinks, food and ambience. We came on a busy evening for dinner, but the server was able to accommodate us very quickly with bar seating. Couldn't have anything alcoholic as I was driving, their Golden Hour drink was fabulous. Definitely a bit of a premium on the price end but it was a good experience!

DOSC is a very contemporary bar/coffee house/ steak house! The restaurant is located downtown Edmonton. The building is architecturally beautiful and historic. (A wheelchair accessible entrance was not apparent) The coffee bar is fully prepared to make your favorite brewed beverages. The bar was tastefully decorated, offering all the "adult" beverages you could imagine. The have a great selection of wines and a nice eclectic variety of beers. The restaurant surrounds the room with plenty of seating choices. Window seats, secluded romantic seats, casual locations. The menu has a nice variety of choices for most palates. The preparation and presentation were top-notch. Every dish was seasoned well and so tasty. (I recommend the Beef Wellington) DOSC is a wonderful place for a business dinner or a night out with your friends. Great site, great service, great food.

DOSC delivered a wonderful experience. Henry and Jackson ensured a smooth table booking process and provided exceptional service with a dash of humor. The restaurant's ambiance was noteworthy. My group of six enjoyed the variety of dishes ordered, including the excellent drinks. The Eggs Benny was particularly impressive, with its bold flavors. The Steak Frites, Breakfast Poutine, and burgers were all outstanding!!

We ordered tomahawk + 2 appetizers for 4 people and were super excited to try the meat. The tomahawk was unfortunately pretty tough and dry and did not taste great. The table agreed on 3/5. However, the appetizers were delicious and our server was suuper friendly and awesome 5/5. 4 stars because we would return one day but probably not order the tomahawk.

This was my first time at DOSC and I was highly impressed. Everything from the service to the food was just amazing. I ordered the strip loin with the beef tallow mushrooms during their brunch menu. The steak was so tender and was cooked to perfection. Additionally I shared a few items such as the brussel sprouts and the ox tail poutine both of which I would strongly recommend. The ox tail poutine had a large amount of meat on it which was surprising and very tasty. If you are looking for a great meal in Edmonton I would highly suggest trying DOSC.

The food is tasty and the ambience elegant - found the staff clearly more upbeat and enthusiastic to Caucasian solo male diner. I arrived and while the waitstaff walks towards me at the door they don’t greet me instead they look hesitant and questioning and while serving instead of a smile and sincere enjoy your meal and genuinely pleased - it’s more here’s the dish. And I’m the one saying thank you. It was highly and noticeably different watching the way the greeted the white male who entered after me and seated at the table right next to me so I heard exactly all the differences however minute it may seem make a big difference. That’s how the ego and morale of certain groups are maintained and boosted while solo female Asian diners def do not get the same treatment or even identity as most people are conditioned and unconsciously behavior with more obsequious and respectful behavior to Caucasians, male and other elements of their upbringing and societal prejudices whether based on merit or not. Unfortunately it’s too common and is not unique to this restaurant but the staff although “polite” on the surface was like a night and day difference to me and is the exact type of low energy behavior that marginalized certain people and is an element of racism and discrimination.

I commend the member of staff on duty a Shame I didn’t catch the name. Perhaps I was just blown away by the overall ambience and hospitality. The food was yummy, tastes fresh and delicious.

Today we decided to have lunch at this place, to celebrate my son's birthday, all the dishes were delicious, excellent service, the screens on the walls were clearly visible, a good place to have a snack in a noisy company. But there was no place by the window, as we wanted , because near the wall for us there was not enough light, it was crowded at 13-14, at 15 there were almost no people. I hope this information will be useful to someone 🌸

I had a great time at Boston pizza weather I'm there to pick up a pizza or want to play the VLT's. Since I was in the oil business for 25 years in Alberta and North British Columbia I have visited and patronized every Boston Pizza from Ft. Nelson, BC to Ft. Mac Alberta to Hinton, AB to all the Locations in Edmonton and now those Locations in Calgary including the location Off Macleod Trail Calgary. Always good service and a friendly environment A place That feels like your at home.

We were recently at this BP for 1-2 times a day for around 10 days while we were at the Centennial Cup. AMAZING service. Huge props to your Managers, Assistants, servers and cooks for accommodating nearly 30 meals x 2 per day for our team. So great to work with, super friendly and helped us out so much as our schedules fluctuated daily. Highly highly recommend. Owners if you see this, your management and staff went BEYOND what we'd expect. Huge Kudos!

There’s two of us in the party. The lady brought a napkin for my sister, but didn’t think about me brought a wet nap for my sister, but didn’t think about me. We asked twice for the wet naps and haven’t seen any since. The food was mediocre nothing to get excited over. Our waitress who should be waiting on us, was too busy talking to the other staff at the bar.

Had my usual favourite The Hungry Carnivore which was amazing! First time having fish tacos and they were so bomb! Hope they keep them on the menu all year round! Our server, Paige, was so friendly and very accommodating and quick on her feet. Will definitely dine here again and can recommend 10/10!

Unfortunately this was not a very good experience for me. I went to the lounge as I was there on my own and saddled up to the bar for a bite to eat. The interior is nice with big screen TVs all over and was very clean and welcoming. The server/bartender was prompt enough to serve my draft beer, but that was the one and only interaction until I gave up and decided to leave... It was not busy at all: including myself there were a total of 4 patrons in the lounge, maybe 5 if someone was around the corner that I couldn't see, but the bartender spent the majority of her time chatting/flirting with the party of two gentlemen while the level of my beer slowly decreased with every sip as I waited for her to return with a menu... After 15 minutes my beer was gone, and so was my desire to eat there. Glass was empty for a few minutes before she walked over to ask if I'd like another, but I was just done by that point so I paid and left to go find somewhere else to eat. I don't foresee myself returning based on the level of service I received vs. all of the other locations around 130th Ave. & McKenzie that I could go to instead. Food: NA - I wasn't able to order anything Service: 2 / 5 - it started off well enough but then fell off a cliff Atmosphere: 4 / 5 - it looks like a good place to watch a game

Visited tonight as we have done for over 10 years. The food is normally well presented and orders accurate, as it was tonight. I have eaten in all types of restaurants over the world - including award winning restaurants. However, the most critical part of your meal is your server, who sets the tone for the meal and facility. Tonight, unfortunately we were greeted by Amanda 1 and we lost our appetite immediately. She asked for drink orders and I ordered coffee and water and I ordered a large Cider for my wife. She said what size large? Now we have made the same request in this restaurant upwards of 30 times without a problem but Amanda decided to be rude and literally shouted " What size Large ?. Assuming as always that my order was clear. Not tonight - she grabbed the drinks menu and was pointing out by banging the menu and going through different sizes including Schooners and Pitchers. Now I am not sure how we must have appeared or she is not very astute, but I would like to ask her when is the last time she served a schooner or a pitcher to a couple of 70 year old pensioners? Anyway, she literally shouted back to me very loudly. Now normally, we would have left right there but we persevered through the meal without further incident. Her poor service was reflected in the tip amount- which is her loss. Usually my minimum is 25%. Also, we will not be back in that location. As stated we have been going there since we arrived in Calgary 10 years ago.

MR MIKES SteakhouseCasual has been delighting diners since its inception in 1960, but it’s recently embraced a fresh, modern vibe that sets it apart from traditional steakhouses. With over 32 locations popping up across the country, this eatery is all about creating a relaxed dining experience without sacrificing quality. While their gluten-free menu may be smaller than some competitors, it still offers enough variety to satisfy those with dietary restrictions.
After a busy holiday season, it was time to leave the cooking to the professionals. We went after the dinner rush as we were looking for somewhere to eat that wasn't fast food and wanted it a bit quieter at a more affordable place. The atmosphere was perfect! We played one of the board games they have available to play while waiting for our appetizers. We didn't get too far though as our order came out quickly. I ordered the caesar salad with the cajun chicken and added on some cheesey garlic toast suggested by our server. For an appetizer I ordered the stuffed mushroom caps. The salad was tasty! Although, the chicken was quite dry but still managed to add good flavoring when eaten with the salad. The stuffed mushrooms were also a bit on the over done side but still delicious, bubbling cream cheese filled with shrimp and crab baked onto the button mushrooms. My foodie partner ordered the steak Oscar with a starter of spicy Thai shrimp. The steak was seared perfectly as ordered and the seafood sauce had lots of crab meat and scallops, all drizzled nicely on top. It was a bit salty but together with the seasonal vegetables and steak, it was good. The shrimp was a bit on the spicy side, caution if you don't like too much heat, perfect for me but was a bit too hot for him. Although I only gave the food 4 stars, I did give an overall rating of 5 stars due to our amazing server! She was very attentive, professional, and kind. Offering suggestions for us as the menu has a lot of fantastic options. It was hard to choose just one entree. It was just what we needed after the holidays! Thanks Brianna for giving us the night off...with a smile! 😁

This was my first visit to Mr. Mikes off Mistatim Way. And, I have to say that the service we got was excellent, but what we ordered was not. I ordered the "All Canadian Lodgeburger," and it was quite oily/greasy. The side of fries it came with was also the same. The burger kinda fell apart as I was eating, too. But other than that, it tasted good. If it weren't for having 2 kids 2 & under with us, and it getting late, we would have considered sending it back. I may be back one day, but I will definitely try something different. Thank you to the friendly staff.

Stopped in for a late lunch with a buddy. Nice atmosphere. Terrific service from Rue. Food was pretty good but our steaks weren't cooked right and Ru got us the right ones. I like the assortment of board games available to play in the lounge.

The food here was fantastic and the service was so friendly and attentive. My dining companion had the steak bites appetizer and the filet mignon topped with lobster Oscar with seafood and she said her steak dinner was fantastic. I had the tempura shrimp with sweet & spicy sauce appetizer which has just the right amount of kick and the smugglers cove chicken which tasted so good. It was so much food we had to take some home for snacks later. Highly recommend this location and we will both be back. Wish I had taken photos but it was so good I forgot.

The steak was just meh, it took me a while to get here and I was taken for my bday. I've had way better steak at other establishments. The onion rings were so over cooked there was no onion to be found inside! Fries were good! Service was great!

Second time being here, ordered what I always do, my steak came over cooked and so did my colleagues. Burger asked for plain for a child and some orange sauce came on it so three meals sent back out of four. This happened last time. Also the cut of steak for two were wrong. West Ed Mall one way better in every aspect. Will not be back to this one ever again

We came to Mr. Mike's to celebrate a birthday with the family. We were able to make a reservation for 8 people on a Saturday evening the day of, which was pretty lucky. The staff were quite attentive to our group of 8, and our meals came relatively quickly given that it was fairly busy in the restaurant. We all enjoyed our meals, drinks and desserts. Our steaks were cooked to very near the requested doneness. Everything was very tasty, with the exception of my one child's meal. We asked for the pasta to have sauce on the side and just toss the pasta with a little butter. We figured out why she wasn't overly fond of it near the end of the meal, as it was in a literal pool of butter. We made our server aware of this and they spoke with the kitchen (you couldn't see it initially as there was a lot of pasta in the bowl). The server passed on the kitchen's apology and removed this charge from our meal, which we felt was acceptable. We'll definitely be returning to this location of Mr. Mike's in the future.

Amazing food! Atmosphere was nice. We sat on the restaurant side, instead of the lounge. Servers are awesome! Been there twice in 2 days. Lol. My friend said she's never had a more flavorful and tender steak! Fish & chips were good. I had a burger. Although not a homemade patty, was still delicious. Chicken tenders were huge! Will definitely go back.

Cuisine was good: Had the truffle fries (decadent) and the butter chicken that was also good and a beer on tap. Good price for the meal I had (under 40$ before tip). The service was also very polite and professional. Would recommend.

Buffet is spectacular! Wow! The scent was appealing at the first step into the restaurant - I believe the chef is Raj, and he is quite proud. I usually get the same things but I tried the buffet and was impressed! In fact the chili chicken was so melt in your mouth slow cooked it was my favourite and never would have thought to try it otherwise. The goat was particularly popular... there was an excellent mix of dishes and 2 amazing desserts as well! I'm STUFFED - and they let me pack up my plate to take to the room :-) Definitely worth a visit!!! First time I've been impressed by a chain hotels restaurant! YUMMY! Thank you, will definitely return!

I recently hosted a lunch at XS Lounge in the Wine Bar Room, and I was thoroughly impressed by the experience. The arrangements were exceptional, thanks to the outstanding efforts of Mr. Raguraman. A special mention to Marshall, who was incredibly attentive and ensured everything ran smoothly. The service was impeccable, the ambiance elegant, and every detail was thoughtfully taken care of. And yes tasty & delicious food! Highly recommended for both personal and professional gatherings.

45 minute and $24 for this?? I’ve never been so disappointed in a meal. They were cold and they were definitely re-heated. Worst steak bites I’ve ever had. Over priced and awful. Ceasar salad wasn’t much better.
