“Best place on the beltline let alone downtown to get cheap beer and tacos. Draft beer for $4 Tacos for $5.25 Plus the home boys running it are top notch! Much respect, would come every day if I had the time!“

“A memorable experience was had with my latest visit. It was a busy Friday night and the staff took care of our table of 4 for dinner and provided us with good service and good food. The experience was memorable because of the level of care and attention to detail that Floor Manager Tait provided us with! He was invested in our dining experience and he was polite and friendly! Thank you Tait and your team for taking care of us.“

“West Springs strEATS has great food selection as well as prompt and friendly service. The variety on the menu is great as both my husband and I like different food and we can both get what we want without compromising. Highly recommend trying the Mango Shrimp Tacos and Perogy Poutine at this location!“

“Normally the service here is really good (especially from Mandy or Veronica) but whenever we get served from one guy (I think his name is Bright) he’s always rushing us and he never seems to be in a good mood. If it was only one time I understand as people can have off days but every time he serves us it’s always subpar.“

“I had such a great experience at Denny’s thanks to Pearl! She is incredibly sweet, attentive, and welcoming. She made sure everything was perfect with my meal and checked in without ever being overbearing. Her kindness and genuine smile really stood out and made my visit so much better. It’s not often you come across such warm and caring service—thank you, Pearl, for making my day!“

“Taco Thursday Win

Absolutely love STREATS Legacy Kitchen! I dropped by on a Thursday and scored their $4 taco deal—incredible value for such delicious, gourmet tacos. The buffalo chicken and mango shrimp tacos were bursting with flavour. Fast, friendly service and plenty of parking. Definitely a top spot for tacos in Calgary SE!“

“Denny's was delicious today (as usual) had incredible service by Genet B. She was awesome, friendly and didn't allow me to feel like a fool when I spilled my coffee at the end of my meal. Very nice and refreshing to have such a happy sunny server. Big smile and super gracious.“

“Great meal, terrific staff always stop here after a visit to east Calgary“

“Celebrated my son’s birthday last night and the service and food were great! We had onion rings, tacos, fish and chips, steak, salmon and crème brûlée and chocolate cake. For drinks we had ginger beer and peacock lager. Great all around! And great ambience“

“Streats offers a tacos, featuring a flavorful blend of ingredients that burst with freshness and authenticity. The crispy pork belly bao was another standout, perfectly tender and complemented by a tangy, spicy sauce. For a lighter option, the Asian-inspired salad with fresh herbs and a zesty dressing was both refreshing and satisfying.“

“Pleasantly surprised and I would certainly come back. The front desk staff were helpful and the bistro had amazing food. After king fought delays I was able to relax have a good night sleep and carry on my journey“

Kid-friendliness: Kids enjoyed the colourful chairs and the TV. They sat beautifully while we ate (which never happens)“

“Great food and super service!“

“The view was beautiful and the pistou pasta was one of the most delicious pasta dishes we’ve ever had. The space is beautiful and modern with a lovely view from the floor to ceiling windows. There’s also a private dining room for parties.
High chairs and kids menu available. The kids menu is better than most with healthy options as well as the standard kid fare. The kid’s portion was generous too. We ordered the kid’s salmon with broccolini, mash potatoes and veggies. The pricing was good too.
