We hadn’t been here for a few years, but felt that the quality of the food has gone down and no longer justifies the high prices. Our server was great though and they do have lots of dietary options, including gluten free and vegetarian.

We come here regularly and we always have a great meal. Unfortunately tonight it was very disappointing. The service was subpar, and the food was underwhelming. The beef rib was dry and overcooked. The cod special had tasteless and watery risotto, and the cod was overcooked and dry. The pasta dish was over salted. We brought this to our server's attention and it felt like our concerns didn't really matter. This was evident as not one manager came over to discuss this. Perhaps they were training new staff in the kitchen, or the chef was having a bad day, but this is not the Broken Plate quality that we know and have come to enjoy over the years.

There is literally Nothing authentic about this place . Our server was decent and it seemed like she was actually the only one working. Little better than Opa. Don’t waste your time if you are looking for a really good Greek restaurant.
The lamb shanks were amazing. Despite being called Broken Plate, the food was served in perfect, no blemish dish. Would definitely come

Recently had lunch with my husband at broken plate, and the attention to detail for food was immaculate and impressive. Service was just as amazing; thank you Perci! I’d like to give recognition to the chef as the meal had a great balance of flavours . Will be back; hopefully soon:)

Saganaki and lamb, what could go wrong? Have never been disappointed with broken plate, the best Greek food in Calgary by far!
Never had a bad meal or service here. The reason for always returning and it is always busy, which is a good sign that others love it and have excellent taste in food as well ?.

My favorite place to go for lunch or dinner I don't need a special occasion to eat here. Everything I have ordered has been delicious and exceptionally cooked. Their Moussaka and lamb chops are my favorite dishes. While the soup is always prepared fresh and never disappoints in taste. My favorite soup has been the mushroom soup and squash soup, out of this world delicious, if you generally like mushroom soup.

Broken Plate is one of our favourite restos in YYC & definitely in our SE 'hood = we visit often for everyday lunches, special occasions and patio seating when the weather allows - and we're never disappointed w/ the delicious, fresh and healthy food.We recently were there to celebrate our birthdays and were pleasantly surprised by the offer of dessert, gratis (I had the homemade Baklava w/ big scoop of salted caramel ice cream = so yum). This was a wonderful and generous gesture you don't often receive and it was well appreciated.For my main course, after sharing a platter of crisp calamari w/ my husband, I enjoyed the butternut squash ravioli w/ prawns = such a generous portion, and so delicious. My husband had the burger w/ homemade soup special (revadosoupa/Greek chickpeas soup) & declared it satisfying; my mother had the lamb platter, and declared it delicious too. We had lovely service, and overall fantastic experience.My one caveat, and suggestion on improving the atmosphere, would be to have Greek music soundtrack in the background vs their current pop/top40. Do that, and you'd get full 5-star review.

Food was great and our server was great. However the hostess had very long hair, not tied up (which I thought was mandatory in food service), refilled our waters, then did a hair flip right beside our table, as loose hair fell off. Not sure where it landed, but there's a reason hair should be tied up.

Lamb was excellent! Service top notch. Everyone was incredibly friendly.Parking: Not the restaurants fault. Heavy snow storm and there had been no snow removal as of yet so the lot was packed for dinner with not a lot of options for parking
