“We came to celebrate a birthday and were not disappointed! From the second we sat down, our server Stephanie was kind, attentive, and informative…our chef Alvin was engaging, fun, and entertaining! Both of these staff members made it truly an unforgettable visit…they both went above and beyond, and interacted with our children throughout the entire meal and made it an incredible experience for our entire family. This is definitely more than just a restaurant - it is absolutely an experience and we would recommend 100% (especially for kids - they won’t stop talking about how much fun they had)!”

“The food was very well presented, tasty and satisfying! Our waitress was very careful about my allergies. We had the Street Fish Burger and Seth’s Crispy Chicken Sandwich. Both were deliciously seasoned.”
“We are visiting from the UK to see family and they showed us around this area. We stopped for a bite to eat here and have to say it was the best toasted sandwich I've ever had, it was so tasty 😋 We will definitely be visiting again before we leave!”
“Fantastic environment, cool vibes. A real gem.”
“Best food ever always delicious ?”
“If you're craving authentic Thai flavors in a cozy, welcoming atmosphere, Zabder Thai is a must-try! 🇹🇭 From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warm smiles and the delicious aroma of home-cooked Thai food. I tried the Pad Thai and Green Curry—both were absolutely packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. The spice level was spot on (you can request mild to Thai spicy 🔥), and the presentation was beautiful. The service was friendly and attentive without being pushy. The owner clearly takes pride in sharing real Thai culture and cuisine. Prices are reasonable, and the portion sizes are generous. Definitely a hidden gem in the city. I'll be coming back again soon—and bringing friends!”
“Best shawarma in town 👍🏻 Love it.”

“Received excellent service by our server today. I was meeting there for a business lunch today and had excellent service, excellent food, and an all around excellent time. Thanks Joey's Eau Claire”
“My daughter and I dined at 530pm yesterday, May 24th 2025. We chose to sit in the dining room. We were lead to a table by the fireplace under a great chandelier. The ambiance of Joey Crowfoot is lively and warm. Comfortable seating, perfectly sized tables, and excellent lighting. Our server, whose name I can't recall - tall dark and handsome and a theater major - was attentive and friendly. The food we had was absolutely incredible. We chose goyza dumplings to start which were so flavourful and perfectly cooked. My daughter ordered the hamburger and fries and even with her braces bothering her, she demolished. My blackened chicken with warm potato salad was hands down the BEST meal I've had in a restaurant in a long, long time. I will be dreaming of that salad until I can get back there again !!”

“Best cocktail bar in town 🤫.
The presentation is unique, the service is amazing, and the atmosphere is breathtaking.
One of the not many places that has comfortable couches to relax in. I absolutely love this place and bring everyone of my family and friends for a drink when they come to town.
Keep it up guys 🥂🎆🥂”
“It was a perfect breakfast for the three of us before we dropped out daughter off at the airport. I had my traditional two eggs over easy with toast sausage and bacon. The two others had some wonderful eggs-benny. My eggs were perfect, the toast was perfect, the bacon was crispy, and the sausages were spicy and succulent, making for a delicious meal. Arlene was wonderful throughout the whole meal so thanks to her especially!”
“Our favorite restaurant in the city, without question. The steak frites is absolutely heavenly and honestly comparable to L’Entrecôte in Paris. The food is consistently outstanding, and we love that the owner is always there, adding such a warm and personal touch to the experience. A true gem that keeps us coming back”

“I went with my family yesterday after hearing about the quality of the food from my friends. It was an amazing experience. The menu was found to be extensive and you have a wide range of food options. The items were mostly innovative and equally delicious. Must visit this restaurant. Highly recommended. This might be the best Indian restaurant”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an amazing dinner at The Taste Factory with friends, and everything from start to finish was perfect. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it a great spot to enjoy a relaxed evening together. The food was outstanding — every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The menu offered a great variety, and everyone at the table found something they loved. Portions were generous, and the flavors truly stood out. The service was excellent as well. The staff was attentive without being intrusive, and they made sure we had everything we needed throughout the night. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience. We’ll definitely be coming back, and I’d highly recommend The Taste Factory to anyone looking for a place to enjoy good food and great company. Special thanks to 'Sarim and Gurleen'👍 Good job guys 🤗”
“I have been using Greg and his team for 20+ years to repair and maintain my equipment on a commercial level at work. They are always prompt, honest and get the job done! I now also find out that they will service and repair smaller mixers!! (Kitchen-aids etc). Definitely my goto place. Thanks guys!”
“I’ve been coming here for the past 10 years and lately almost 3-4 times a week and this is by far the best subway around, Anu is usually the one helping me (though all their staff is wonderful) and she never fails to make me the BEST sandwich and delivers it with a smile - my favourite place to grab lunch on the go.”
“Wow is all I can say!! Great food! Best Greek food I have had in my 14 years in Calgary! Flavourful Yummy goodness Owners are amazing and friendly pricing on point! Thank you for being the best hidden gem in Calgary!!”

“I visited the Calgary Subway today (Sunday) and wanted to share some positive feedback. This was my first time eating at this location, and I am so glad I went. I usually stay away from eating out, but this place definitely changed my mind and I will go back!
The store was extremely clean and the food tasted great. Most importantly, the employee named Nav gave me excellent customer service. She was very professional and welcoming. It is in a great spot in our beautiful city, located in the Deerfoot City plaza right across from my GoodLife gym. Please let her know she is doing a wonderful job!✌️🙏❤️”
“So good! The food and service are 6⭐️ - I cannot recommend Jerusalem Shawarma enough. They really care about their business and customers. The portions are huge - great value for a hungry person. Try the lentil soup as well. I am not from Calgary but I’ll be sure to stop here whenever I pass by.”
“I love this place! I've been going there for years specifically for their pork spring rolls and the best wor wonton in the city! The family there is so great! They always go above and beyond, which is evidenced by the line ups at lunchtime. Highly recommend them! 5 stars from me!”
“Kare kare and Chicken Inasal are one of my "Paborito"The Food was Incredible,Super Friendly Staff,Would definetely Recommend!”

“I am so so lucky to have had the honour of catering from Shawarma Cairo restaurant, the food was amazing, tasty and super organized, and it truly surpassed my expectations! The owners are such wonderful people, and I will be definitely ordering from them again with my eyes closed ! From kufta to rice to pizza to salad to hummus to tahina to shawarma to garlic sauce … everything is top top !! Thank you and keep up the great work and Allah yaatiko saha ?”

Highly recommend!! I bring all my friends & family here & whenever I have family out of town, this is where I bring them to try the BEST IN THE CITY!! The best 🤤 Thank you guys ! You guys are great.”
“A wonderful example of a Greek tavern in Calgary is Santorini, where Brian and I enjoyed dinner without reservations and were still warmly accommodated. We were personally served by Louie, whose hospitality made the entire evening unforgettable. He recommended an exceptional Greek Cabernet Sauvignon wine, along with some of the most delicious Greek appetizers, main platters, and desserts we have ever had. The food was outstanding, the atmosphere welcoming, and the service truly amazing. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable Greek dining experience in Calgary.”
“My daughter found this place online where a reviewer had indicated that Blue Star offered gluten-free and egg-free waffles. Unfortunately the waffles were not egg-free, but they did have a unique menu with lots of options. Our server Conrad had a very welcoming demeanor. After asking a few questions about the menu he took it upon himself to look into all allergy friendly options and even offered to customize some dishes. When discussing the options he made sure to have the discussion with my daughter, not me which I appreciated.”
“Recently, I had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant for Sohour and was thoroughly impressed. The food was nothing short of amazing, each dish bursting with flavor. The ambiance of the place is perfect for gatherings, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal with friends or family. The staff deserves a special mention for their courteous service, adding to the overall positive experience. What sets this restaurant apart is its unique Egyptian vibe, which adds an authentic touch to the dining experience. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a memorable meal.”
“My second time in Calgary was nothing short of perfection. Last year I dined here for my birthday and when the thought of what to do rolled around this year, flying to Calgary seemed both extra, and hilarious. But it stuck. Saltlik, you outdid yourself. I’ve been thinking of the Beeswax Old Fashioned for 366 days and it just hits the spot. Victoria B.C. hasn’t latched onto it yet but it’ll come. Dinner was exceptional but the real star or the show was Trevor. Exceptional service is becoming an almost lost art and this guy has it. His energetic read on the table and tailored charisma is what 90s career servers were made of. The kind of server who questions himself “how do I elevate this experience?!” And then executes. His tag team with Chris to make this birthday nothing short of Calgary perfection is exactly why we ended up here. Thank you for making us feel special, our dinner incredible and leaving us with yet another Saltlik memory for the books. Thanks over many thanks. We will see you again!”

Fine Dining
“Highly recommend. Took our order on short notice of 24 hours and the result was a perfect cake both in design and taste. I'm not a cake eater (don't have a sweet tooth) but I did eat this cake and it was honestly the best cake I've ever had! I wish I lived closer, I'd order all my cakes from this place!”
“We've heard great things about Cesar's and you did not disappoint. I'd like to highlight our waistress Micah(not sure how to spell her name). We visited yesterday and was entirely satisfied with our experience. The food was excellent, and Micah was so pleasant and so friendly to our baby. If we ever visit Calgary again, we are definitely coming back to your restaurant.”
“Just when you think they can't raise their game any higher Hy's manages to find a way. We attended the Calgary locations 10th Anniversary Celebration on Sept 26th and it was spectacular. The event was flawlessly organized and orchestrated by the Hy's team, the food was next level even by Hy's standards and the service exceeded anything we have experienced anywhere in North America even in the finest hotels. Bryant Olender added a classic background with piano and vocal stylings that perfectly suited the atmosphere. It was certainly the best evening we have at Hy's over the last decade, and I don't think I'm overstating it to say it was a "Once in a Lifetime" experience. A huge thankyou to Barb and the entire Hy's team!”
“The Business district Calgary Vintage Chophouse is truly an astonishing place to dine. I had the enjoyment of attending a company celebration, and we received their exclusive private room for a full night. With more than 20 seats my business cohort and myself had a great time. The service is impeccable, the scenery is grand, and the food is spectacular!”
“This experience rocked! We went for the Wednesday Date Night special and we had a blast.
The service was prompt, attentive, friendly and fun! We had fun!
Steak and side were awesome. Misses had Bolognese and I had mash potatoes both great. Desserts were top notch (brulee for her and pecan pie for me). The atmosphere was upscale but approachable. We felt comfortable and at ease. And everyone was so nice.
100% will be back!”

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

“Amazing food! Relaxed atmosphere! Will definitely be going again!”
“My husband and I had dinner last Tues. We have been here numerous times and it is always consistent. This location always leaves the best impressions! From hospitable hosts, delicious dishes, with beautiful presentation, and a wide variety wine list. Our server Chloe was the best. Her personality and always smiling made the experience even more pleasant.. Every restaurant needs service and meals like Joeys”

“Great little Vietnamese restaurant with awesome service. The staff were very friendly and efficient. The food was also very good. We tried their Banh Mi, vermicelli bowl, pho, beef stew and Vietnamese coffee. Everything was very good, 2 thumbs up. It’s a small place with limited seating. Located in a strip shopping centre you should be able to find free parking either out front or in the adjacent lot.”
“Congress Coffee Company feels more like a vibrant community hub than a corporate chain. The welcoming staff and variety of arts events make it a standout spot. While they’re known for their expertly roasted coffee, I personally love their teas paired with a sweet treat. The butter tarts, in particular, are irresistible and keep me coming back for more. Whether you’re there for the drinks, the snacks, or the atmosphere, Congress Coffee is a gem!”
“My husband and I are literally addicted to Greedy Donuts. These are hands down some of the best donuts we have ever had. Every single one tastes unbelievably fresh, soft, and perfectly made, with the most incredible creamy fillings that honestly remind me so much of the homemade donuts my grandma used to make. Total comfort food in the best possible way.
I genuinely don’t think you can go wrong with any flavor, but some of my personal favorites are the strawberry, peach, grenach, maple pecan, and lemon. Every time we try a new one, we somehow end up with another favorite. You can really tell there’s so much care put into both the flavors and quality. Absolutely obsessed!”

“Great staff, great decor, and amazing food! Always love to come here with my wife and family. This is a great place for parties or a date night and their sister restaurant Ajito is very trendy.”
“Authentic Indian food, good portions reasonably-priced, friendly staff, comfortable atmosphere. Arguably the best Indian restaurant in Cochrane.”
“Excellent Italian food prepared by Italians. Welcome place and very kind and professional staff. Excellent pasta and delicious pizza. Average prices. Ottimo cibo italiano preparato dagli italiani. Posto benvenuto e personale molto gentile e professionale. Ottima pasta e deliziosa pizza. Prezzi medi.”
“This place is amazing. The food is top tier, no joke. You will not miss the meat if you’re a meat eater like me. Honestly my go-to for sushi and salad dressings. A gem more people need to know about! Very accommodating for food sensitivities and lifestyles. I wish I could give 10/5 stars. (I don’t have a pic to share bc I gobbled down my meal too fast)”
“we are new in calgary and we absolutely wanted to try indian cuisine. we choose Lazeez for its good reviews and we were not disappointed. thank you 😊”
“Food was excellent. Love how they served the sashimi on top of ice cubes to keep the fish cold. The mango rolls was a delight and different from other Japanese restaurants as it was filled with small mango pieces inside the rolls. Yummy! The service was great, and the staff was super friendly.”
“We have been here several times. The staff were very friendly and efficient, and the service has been excellent. The food is delectable, tasty, and nicely presented with just the right balance of spices and heat. We just couldn't stop nibbling on the garlic naan bread and tamarind sauce. We were impressed with the cleanliness, the decor, and the pleasant atmosphere. It has become our favourite Indian Food restaurant in the City.”
“We took our kiddos to East Side Mario’s tonight for their 11th birthday. We enjoyed all you can eat bread, salad, and soup, as well as some pasta, chicken, and pizza. We love coming here because of the great deals and even better food! Mostly though, the service! We were served by Erica tonight and not only was she friendly and amazing with the boys, she helped us optimize the Wednesday night deal with some pretty stellar suggestions. She then surprised the boys with some complimentary cakes for their birthday. Erica, thank you for making tonight’s birthday meal extra special for these boys and giving us such a wonderful experience!”
“Owens Landing is my go to for quality eats. Love the menu, cocktails, and atmosphere. The best service in Calgary.”
“We first heard of Pizza Culture when we saw news of their top ranking in the world.
We were not disappointed by our experience. They certainly lived up to their title win!
Before we discuss food, we have to mention how awesome our server Wendy was. She was on top of her A game and gave us such a nice experience here. Never once was my water less than half full. She was so kind to our kids and made great suggestions. She also followed up repeatedly and made us feel seen and taken care of.
Onto the food, we got the New Yorker Pizza, the Calabrese 2.0 Pizza, the Capricciosa Pizza, and the Margarita Pizza (without Basil). We also got the Focaccia Bread, Large Hand-cut Fries, and a side of Spicy Pepperoncini in Oil. For dessert, we got the Arrogato, the Panna Cotta, and a Vanilla Gelato.
Of the pizzas, my favorite was the New Yorker Pizza which all their pizzas have a nice thin crust, but in this particular pizza has the cup pepperoni slices. The pizza sauce is balanced and just right.
My wife loves the Calabrese 2.0 Pizza just a tad more than the Capricciosa Pizza. Honestly, both were excellent to her.
The kids wanted a cheese pizza so the way around it was to get a Margarita Pizza without the Basil. It was excellent and I would eat that easily too!
The Focaccia Bread was a hit. It was so light and crispy. The Hand-cut Fries were super delicious. They are crispy, crispy fries!
My wife said the Spicy Pepperoncini in Oil was a good add-on to enhance her pizza experience.
As I am not a dessert person, my wife was the one who ordered the Panna Cotta and the Affogato. She enjoyed both. The little one gave a thumbs up for her Vanilla Gelato.
Pizza Culture is worth making it a regular rotation in our restaurant list. It offers exactly what we are looking for in a pizza place.”
“pizza was absolutely delicious, crust was crunchy and toppings were amazing... We will be back most definitely.. Service was wonderful”
“Traveling thru Calgary ... hotel recommended Moxies. We used Uber app for delivery. The deliver to address was wrong. We called the restaurant, and they were OUTSTANDING... they spent time to help with sincerity and true customer service. And the food was EXCELLENT ..... can't recommend this restaurant (or its staff) any higher.”
“We enjoyed wonderful food and wonderful service from Violet Mackey yesterday. I highly recommend going there. 👍👍”
“Amazing Place 👏 Lasagna was fantastic and the food was Spot on! Hard Working family Run business, love to see it thank you!!!”
“This is ‘my’ sushi place ! The food is perfection the agedashi tofu is divine &their tuna sushi is so soft I have eaten other menu items and i have brought many a friend here and its fabulous great food and the people are lively they are also gluten aware for those that are which is fabulous”
“Best brunch coffees we’ve ever had. The portions were great. The food was amazing. We had the Full Monki and Monki Perogies and they were awesome. Our server, Hana, also helped us with our choices of drinks and suggested the perfect drink for what we were looking for. Also, kudos to the barista! Will certainly be back.”
“My wife and I had our wedding reception at The Lake House and it truly was beautiful! The scenery and the elegance of the restaurant itself are incomparable for a wedding venue. From there we go to the food. The food was absolutely delicious and all of of our guests praised the restaurant for the amazing options they were presented along with how absolutely tasty every single bite was. From the appetizers, to the main course, to the dessert and the late night snack, every single bite was spectacular. As we continue on the accommodating and excellence of service go beyond compare. Every step of the way the team at The Lake House catered to what our wants were and offered great advice and options to make sure we landed on the right decision. When spending so much money on everything to do with a wedding it can add up and you want to make sure the value is there and that you’re not over spending on one thing vs. another. They made sure that as costs added up for us elsewhere we really saw the value while still getting an elite, exceptional, beyond compare venue that just took care of nearly everything. My wife and I live busy lives and had a baby shortly after our wedding and have repeatedly told each other since the wedding we truly owe it to the restaurant to make sure we sit down, take time and praise how truly happy we were with our experience in a review so that everyone knows and we can hopefully give them some extra business and help others have as spectacular an experience as us. Since our time there many of our guests have shared how much they loved the experience there and said that they could not think of a better place to have a wedding venue. We do live out of town so we do t get to go back as often as we’d like but our anniversary is just around the corner and we’re very excited to go back to The Lake House to enjoy this day as well. Thank you everyone at The Lake House for sharing our moment with us and making it unforgettable! We truly appreciate you!”
“I had the spicy pork cubes clay pot. Under the top is a yummy omelette and it comes with a side of kimchi. Actually, I even got a refill on the kimchi. The sauce was suuuper balanced and the cherry on the top with this dish is to scrape out the crunchy rice crust at the bottom of the dish. Absolutely worth a trip.”
“Had a fantastic evening at Jane Bond for their crawfish boil! The food was delicious and the service was awesome, they were especially great with our daughter! We'll definitely be back!”
“Excelente! me hizo sentir muy cerca de mí amado PERÚ 🇵🇪❤️”
“We went to this restaurant for the first time and had a great dining experience . Food great and our server Sue was outstanding!! Highly recommend this restaurant .”
“We've heard great things about Cesar's and you did not disappoint. I'd like to highlight our waistress Micah(not sure how to spell her name). We visited yesterday and was entirely satisfied with our experience. The food was excellent, and Micah was so pleasant and so friendly to our baby. If we ever visit Calgary again, we are definitely coming back to your restaurant.”
“We eat out a fair bit, but this was the best night out I have had in years! Have not been here before, but definitely coming back often. Came here with my wife and one of our friends later on Saturday afternoon for happy hour and got seated at the bar, overlooking the kitchen. The happy hour drinks were very good, and the food was fantastic. We ended up staying for dinner, and every dish was beautifully prepared, tasty and original - not just a variation on something you would get at a restaurant down the street. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. Our waiter provided excellent service. He always knew the right time to check up on us and see if we needed more drinks or food. Nice guy too. I originally was a little disappointed to get seated at the bar instead of a table - now I would not want to sit anywhere else. Loved to watch the skills and teamwork of the kitchen staff, who were very friendly and chatted with us when they had time. Loved everything about this place.”
“Larissa the bartender is top notch. Makes a well balanced drink and is a pleasure to talk to.”
“I had dinner tonight at The Himalayan (17 Ave SW). It was my first time here, and only my second Nepalese restaurant I’ve been to. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable and very kind. The restaurant is clean, and intimate. Parking isn’t ideal, but that’s not their fault! I started with the pork momos as an appetizer. They were excellent, but quite expensive ($16 for six regular-sized dumplings). The flavour was great, and they tasted very fresh. For my main, I had Chicken Dal Bhatt, which came with three small dishes of meat and curry and lentils, along with rice, naan and some side dishes. Each of the individual dishes had incredible flavour. They were also hot and fresh, as were the momos. The meal was served on a metal platter, and the small bowls were also metal. It was beautifully presented. As soon as I finished my main meal, the waiter offered me a chai and mango pudding (included in the meal). The chai was aromatic and spicy and earthy and amazing! The mango pudding was icy cold (also in a metal dish), and hit the spot at the end of the meal. For my appetizer and main meal, I opted for mild / zero spice. Everything was so flavourful I don’t regret this decision. However next time, I’ll live a little and try the medium heat. Overall, this was a 10/10 for me and I’m really glad I had the chance to try out this restaurant!!”
“Had a fantastic evening at Jane Bond for their crawfish boil! The food was delicious and the service was awesome, they were especially great with our daughter! We'll definitely be back!”
“Went here with a table of five, I loved the food, everything was cooked well and tasty, even sushi. Service was great and attentive. Will definitely be coming back.”
“Vine a la taqueria porque me llamo mucho la atencion probar unos tacos, ya que llevaba años sin probar unos buenos tacos. Me pedi unos de birrias y vaya la sorepresa que me dio cuando vi que estaban doraditos y que venian con su consome. No solo eso, estaban riquisimos, recomiendo mucho este lugar si estas en busca de unos buenos tacos. Se la rifo el viejon!”
“Excellent experience both times we came. Impeccable service that was welcoming and kind. They offered us hot towels and a container to put my bag. The menu is slick and not over complicated. The food quality is unmatched. The fish is so fresh and buttery. The rice is done uniquely with a fluffy texture in each roll. Their grilled squid dish is so flavorful and tender. This is a pricey experience, but it lives up to the quality of the fish and delicate preparation of each item. This is one of the few locations in Calgary where you can get Hamachi or Yellowtail. The only item lacking was the matcha experience; the grilled match mochis were a tad underwhelming, but not enough to deduct any points. Highly recommend this resturant for a high quality, fancier eating experience.”
“Loved coming here today with my friends and daughter ! Friendly staff and the breakfast was amazing. Even better than the breakfast in Istanbul when I went last year !”
“Was at the University District Canadian Brewhouse location last night for my free Birthday nachos and Sunday special Pizza. Was a wonderful evening and food was beyond delicious. We had Ashleigh as a server and she was amazing. Me and my parents will definitely keep going back to this location”
“Great! I had a toast with smoked salmon, avocado and Benedict egg, delicious! The Honey Cardamom coffee came with a cinnamon flower decoration. Better make a reservation.”
“Chun Jang is my favorite restaurant in all of Calgary. Everytime we're here we must stop in for lunch. Authentic flavors, delicious food, great service and nice atmosphere.”
“Food was outstanding.. staff amazing Service top notch . Took my son and his Mum for his birthday . We were stuffed”
“Ordered two Chicken Lovers pizza here and it was absolutely delicious—perfectly cooked with generous toppings. Note that the washroom is currently out of order, but the food itself is highly recommended! Plus the second pizza was only 7$ nice promotion!.”
“Just had dinner here with 3 friends. We all loved our meals which is an awesome experience! I had the west coast salmon which was spectacular, a friend raved about the burger and we even had desserts which were to die for.”
“As always, Shibuya always delivers the best freshest sashimi and sushi. We’ve been coming for well over a decade. The owner is absolutely lovely and treats us very well. I do miss the bluefin toro! I hope the bring it in some day! I’m sure glad the restaurant is back! Thank you!!”
“Great sushi & sashimi. Very fresh & flavorful. They had some more unique offerings available then most other places I been to in town. Can really taste the quality & freshness in the fish.
Def tempted to come back & try the Omakase sometime. With the chefs here I feel like it'd be a exquisite experience.
Very friendly & knowledgeable servers as well as it was my first time here & I inquired about alot of items in their menu.”
“We live in the area but we had never tried this restaurant before. We found everything we had very good overall.
We had sushi, sashimi, and tried several rolls. The rolls were hit and miss, but overall most of them were pretty good. Sushi was great too, but the sashimi stole the show. Very nice quality and big chunky pieces.
The place looks nice overall and it was very clean. The staff were excellent. Very friendly, polite and attentive.
We’ll be coming back to try some of their other dishes and have their excellent sashimi again.”
“Super fresh, soft melt in your mouth sashimi! 🤤🤤 Onion flower roll was fire 🔥 yam roll was so good and fat! Really good portions for everything, sashimi as well! Seaweed salad and takoyaki were all so good. Fast extremely lovely and in tune service also. Filled up waters quickly and precisely removing dishes as promptly as needed also. Also offered to refill our green tea which was extremely yummy. 10/10 would go again”
“first time eating here with a diverse group with limited Japanese food experience. mind blown!! beautiful atmosphere, staff were amazing made the 2 birthdays in our group very special. The food was beautifully prepared and tasted amazing! one in our group is a meat and potato's guy but is now a sushi lover! expecting a huge bill at the end of the night but was shocked at how very reasonable the price was for a total of 7 people. Definitely will be back a new favorite restaurant.”
“Chef’s kiss! Loved the prawn toast obviously. Don’t sleep on the mussels or the bread and dip. Incredible meal, impeccable intimate cozy vibes and great central location. Not to mention kid friendly. Will be back here many times to try more menu items.”
“Can’t say enough great things about this! Great food , awesome Staff!! Five stars for sure !”
“We ordered as a company for our monthly appreciation lunch. The food was great. Everything I ordered was included. They did mention that their food is slightly spicier but did a pretty good job at making it milder. The only item that was on the spicier side were the beef seekh kababs (they did mention this to me prior, so we knew to expect this). The butter chicken was really great. They were generous with the food portions - we had plenty leftover. Overall, the staff really enjoyed the food. Service was exceptional!”
“We attended Golden Girls last night.
Let's do the positives first.
The performers had spectacular voices. They stayed in character, and interacted with the audience to make a very fun experience.
The servers were hilarious and also had excellent stories to go with their characters.
While the atmosphere and performance was quite loud, it wasn't too overbearing.
The show had a small story, lots of very hilarious dialog and action, and the songs were phenomenally performed.
The food was tasty, even if the portions were on the smaller side. But, servers got it out FAST and effective!
The negatives.
The theater is obviously older, and is showing its age in places. It is clean though, which is great.
The tickets were quite pricey, making it a little out of reach for some. Worth the ticket price? Yes. As an event. But not as a regular occurrence.
Overall?
I think this is a worth it experience. Its fun for adults and kids (older kids for the night performances). The 3.5 hours moves quickly with the entertainment extending through the breaks with the servers and cast wandering the room. Its entertaining and engaging for everyone.”
“Went to the Red Deer location yesterday. Food was amazing! The place was packed. There was a hiccup with our order, but it was rectified. Would definitely go back, maybe just at a less busy time.”
“On September 7th 2023 at 1:11 p.m. I ordered butter chicken and coconut rice and I asked if they can throw a couple of vegetables in. First time ordering from this place and damn it was delicious I can't wait to try some others food😋💕💕 I did not realize the portions were so big I guess I should have asked if they had half orders as it was only for one person but that's okay I have butter chicken for a few days yum yum.”
“The menu options were so good that it was really hard for me to choose!! Staff were super friendly, especially our waitress, she gave us really good recommendations for where to go in town and what’s worth it/not. Restaurant was very clean, nice atmosphere, and my lamb burger was very delicious. I ordered a honey cardamon latte and I got another one for the road it actually so good. Absolutely would come again!”
“Fantastic experience last night for a birthday. The service was some of the best we've had in the city. Staff made the birthday feel special. The server was extremely attentive and helpful with us selecting the perfect shareables order for our group. Food was excellent! Not a single bad dish out of all we ordered. Highly recommended for a fun spot with great food and ambience.”
“Real great food and staff. My little one was freaking out, and they did a good job with her. I'm thankful the staff are so friendly and accommodating.
Food is AMAZING TOO!”
“Had a blast at blacklight music bingo! can't wait till the end of February to do it all over again!! bartenders were chill dudes!”
“What an awesome experience!!! Dannie was our server. She was awesome!!! The food was great! We definitely will be back. Dannie answer our questions and if she did not know, she said she would check and let us know. We really enjoyed this experience!!! Thank you Dannie and the whole crew. We will be back to get our T shirts!”
Latest Reviews
“While waiting for a connecting Flight to Edmonton on May 28, 2026, we had lunch at this location. An employee, Judy or Janet, came up to our table. She initially introduced herself and then asked how the meal and service were. This employee demonstrated exceptional customer service, even addressing all our questions about flights and the airport itself. Many employees in all establishments could learn and benefit from her skill set.”
“just had dinner at Haru with grandson and was very impressed. The place is spotless and the service is amazing. We had teriyaki chicken and california rolls (hubby), panfried gyoza and scallops (me) and tuna tataki and spicy tuna roll (grandson)…soooo good that we had second servings for many items instead of dessert…scallops were like butter, melted in mnouth. Hiighy recommend,”
“I'm not really an "ice cream person" - but the quality and flavour combinations that Marcus has contrived NEVER cease to amaze me. Often very long lineups for a reason (If you want to bypass the lineups, pop in and buy a quart (or 4 for a discount) and they'll serve you right away to pay for it, and you can enjoy at home. I have only found one other ice cream shop in my travels that comes close to rivaling Marcus, but one has to travel to the other side of the world to get it - Duck Island Ice cream in NZ - but that's a heck of a flight for ice cream that is almost as good as what you can get locally!)”
“Rasoi catered a staff function and the food was incredible. With over 80 people, we had to have a simple meal but the quality was second to none - the butter chicken was melt-in-your-mouth delicious (never had better butter chicken) and the naan bread was warm and tasty. The owner delivered the food himself and did an outstanding job with customer service. I highly recommend this restaurant!”
“A Great place to Eat, and have a beverage or two. The atmosphere IS Very Very Good, and the Service IS excellent, and Especially Our Waitress, Jessie C., who was Very Pleasant, and Friendly. She Always gives US Excellent Food and Drink Service. We Love to be in Her Section.”
“My husband and I had dinner last Tues. We have been here numerous times and it is always consistent. This location always leaves the best impressions! From hospitable hosts, delicious dishes, with beautiful presentation, and a wide variety wine list. Our server Chloe was the best. Her personality and always smiling made the experience even more pleasant.. Every restaurant needs service and meals like Joeys”
“I have been coming to this Tim Hortons location for quite some time. I don’t only pick up coffee , sandwiches and treats for myself, but often pick up donuts for my customers. I have always received great and friendly service from the staff. I credit that to the friendly service I always receive from the management time . Keep up the great work guys.”

“Beautiful atmosphere. The place is not very big, but very cozy. The service truly deserves 5 stars — the woman behind the bar is always friendly, kind, and professional. She gives excellent service every time, is very responsive, and it’s always a pleasure to talk to her. She even helped us clean up after we accidentally spilled hot chocolate, which we really appreciated. Honestly, she deserves a bonus for the way she treats customers!
As a coffee lover, I can say the quality is excellent — very well prepared and truly delicious. It’s not easy to find coffee like this in Calgary. The food was also tasty and stored properly and neatly.”

“Coco Cups is a little gem. The space is small, but the food quality and portions are excellent, and we usually go for takeout. The staff are always kind, welcoming, and genuinely warm. Every visit feels less like a good restaurant stop and more like being welcomed into someone’s home. Highly recommended!
I’ve visited both in summer and many a times this winter. All time favourite!”
“Honestly, everything at Café 18g is amazing. From the coffee to the food, you can really tell they care about quality. They offer such a great variety — fresh real-fruit juices, comforting soups, delicious sandwiches, rice bowls, and perfectly made coffee. Everything tastes fresh and made with attention to detail. The owners are incredibly kind and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. It’s the kind of place where you feel comfortable staying, relaxing, and coming back again. This café definitely deserves more attention, and I highly recommend stopping by if you’re looking for great food, great drinks, and genuinely warm service!!”
“We recently celebrated my daughter’s birthday, and Vibe Breakfast and Grill took care of the outdoor catering—and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment they arrived, everything was handled with professionalism and a warm, friendly attitude. The setup was vibrant and inviting, adding a festive touch to the celebration. The food was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. Guests couldn’t stop raving about the grilled items, especially the juicy chicken and the flavorful wraps. The breakfast spread was also a big hit—freshly made, full of flavor, and perfect for both kids and adults. What impressed me most was their attention to detail and willingness to customize the menu to suit our preferences. The staff was attentive and polite, ensuring everything ran smoothly so we could focus on enjoying the day. They even went the extra mile to help with serving and cleanup, which was a huge relief. Thanks to Vibe, the birthday felt extra special. The food truly brought people together, and their outdoor catering service made the day stress-free and memorable. I wholeheartedly recommend Vibe Breakfast and Grill for any event—you’ll be in great hands.”
“We’ve been going to this Bubble Tea place and we loved it! Lots of Bubble Tea selection, fresh fruit smoothies, relaxing atmosphere and delicious pastries. I even tried their Dubai inspired chocolate strawberry pistachio dessert and I love it so much! We’ll keep coming back!”

“We had a really good experience. The variety of meats and side dishes was impressive, and we loved being able to grill right at the table. The side dish and sauce station added a lot of flavor options, which made the meal more fun.”
