“Tonight I was in a party of 5 at my table. The group was my family with my sister as the visitor from Greece. Alivia was our server and she was so pleasant to us and so sincere with all of us. Her knowledge of the menu and providing us with reviews on the menu items was simply impressive. Our food entrees were absolutely fabulous and even my 87 year old Mom was raving about the service and food. We have frequented this restaurant a few times and tonight will remain memorable. Looking forward to our next visit to Joeys Chinook. Cheers, Bill Calgary“

“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.“

“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!“

“Thank you! Last night I dined with friends at Earl's--not my choice. Tonight at Joey's was a whole new experience--for the better, much better! Your prices were not inflated; they were reasonable (well, except the dessert was a bit pricey, but then I do not think I have ever tasted a more delicious dessert!) Albeit, we only had drinks and dessert. The waitresses we had the pleasure of interacting with were gracious, friendly and fun--just right! I wish I knew their names. All together the experience was amazing! Top notch! Koodos to Joey's and their staff at Crowfoot Crossing!“

“We came here to eat for our anniversary. Ordered the chili citrus calamari, peppercorn steak, creole steak & prawns, and chocolate lava cake. The food was good but the service was the best. Charlie F was a great host, would have him again ?.“

“First visit to Calgary, we're walking down the Center street looking for grub. We fall upon the Local Public Eatery. Quick check up on Facebook and it's very well rated. in we went. Decor is like a Ranch meets Sports Bar. Warm and welcoming. Great staff with wonderful service. You can also play Jenga while you wait. • Good Burger but not mind-blowing. utilitarian. • VERY GOOD Onion rings. So much so, we had seconds. • My girlfriend had the Steak + Frite. The fries looked a little anemic but turned out great. crunchy but not dry and very flavourful. the steak was super tasty and was like butter in the mouth. • Accompanying sauces with the steak and the rings were also quite delicious. And we got to see a real life cowboy. In the end my mind wasn't blown, but it was far better than average and I would go again easy.“

“From my first unforgettable encounter with The Black Apron to countless lunch meetings and a recent evening event for a group of discerning professionals, I am left utterly speechless by the unmatched excellence of Juan and Steve. Their culinary artistry, combined with a deep-seated passion for hospitality, has elevated every experience to a level beyond mere satisfaction. Their promise to "bring your palate happiness... satisfaction... bliss" is not just a vision—it's a guarantee. The evening they catered at my home was nothing short of extraordinary, where every detail was meticulously crafted to achieve absolute perfection. Juan and Steve, along with Luca, delivered an experience that exceeded all expectations, leaving an indelible mark on both myself and my guests. Their dedication, talent, and kindness have set a new standard in catering. Thank you for turning my wishes into a reality and for creating memories that will be cherished forever.“

“We have been to this Cactus Club lots of enjoyable times. We therefore decided to go there for our 54th wedding anniversary last Wednesday. Food was prompt and excellent and the manager arranged for a welcome drink of prosecco. Nice touch. The service by Jackie R was a 10-out-of-10 and we will certainly pay a visit to this restaurant again in the near future. Five stars!!“

“After a very long day, we stumbled across this mill gem!
We arrived late in the evening around 9PM on a Sunday, and there were a few customers, finishing up their evening, but the staff welcomed us in.
Our food was very good, we enjoyed a pizza, and the chicken a ribs. the portions were very generous, and left with a doggy bag.
Considering how good the food was, and being in the city, the prices of the food is very reasonable and a great value!
Everything tasted great, and was made promptly, and served HOT!
Not sure if the reasoning but the only down fall was that our waitress felt like she took making time to get our drinks and food order, and helped another table that arrived after us first.
Either way, mistakes happen and when she took our order was super nice & friendly.
I enjoyed this, but others may not; but our waitress appeared to disappear once we got our food, and only saw her at the end when it was time to get the bill - Luckily another waitress walking buy topped up our drinks and we didn’t have any need for her. I’m just used to waitresses stopping by a few times during your stay to make sure everything was ok.
It was likely a ‘one off’ as it was the end of the night, but just worth noting.
We enjoyed the atmosphere, and food and a nice place to find after a busy day in the city!
Thanks for great food and allowing us to relax.
See you again next time we are in Calgary.“

We all had the Bisin steak. Hands down , it was the BEST I EVER HAD! The cherry glaze was spectacular!

“Staff are very friendly. Food is amazing. Wasn’t feeling very hungry at that moment so only order a Caesar Salad. I am not a salad guy but this one make me wants to keep eating. It’s a bit expensive but worth the money. The ice cream bar only available til Aug 5 from what I remember. This ice cream bar should appear on the menu once in a while or only for seasonal. Taste sooooooooo good.
Will definitely come back for some other main dish or sandwich.“

“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!“

“We have been coming to Oscar's for over a decade. Consistently good food. Dry ribs are excellent. Delicious flame grilled burgers. I had the steak sandwich tonight. Perfect. Living in BC now so i really needed a good piece of Alberta Beef . You will find it here and as it is off the hot flaming grill from Wellingtons with which it shares a kitchen it was good enough to rival Caesar's and Hy's Steakhouses. I have no problem travelling 800 km to eat here.“

“My sister took my husband and I out for dinner for a little celebration. We wanted a place that had good food, relaxed and not too pricey. Fergus and Bix hit it out of the.park for a 10/10!
I had the Sirloin Salad, my sis had a pizza and my hubby had the Halibut Fish and chips. We all raved about our choices! Also, not only were the dishes super tasty, they give you generous portions! Which has almost become a thing of the past in most restaurants! Oh yeah and it was 50% off your choice of wine!! Of course we HAD TO squeeze in dessert to top off our evening and decided on the flourless chocolate cake with salted caramel ice cream!! Sorry there isn't a picture! It was soooo good we just dived in and forgot to take a pic! Ha!! Thanks to Sam our server, who was exceptional. We had a thoroughly awesome time and it was worth every penny!! Thanks so much!!“

“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!“

“My wife and I shared the seared digby scallops for a starter; they were melt-in-your mouth perfect. For mains she had the duck breast with yuzu bread pudding, grilled bok choy, rhubarb and gochujang bbq sauce; I had the braised short rib in tomato & balsamic reduction with white cheddar mashed potatoes and broccolini. Both were plated beautifully, served at the right temperature, and done just right. Everything paired well with a Kiona Vineyards Riesling 2022. For dessert we shared a matcha cheese cake with cookie crumb, yuzu chantilly, and micro anise. Our server was pleasantly attentive throughout the evening, answered all of our questions about the menu, and handled our table of 8 efficiently. The interior is beautiful! We had a superb experience overall.“

“Was surprised to see so few folks there on a Friday on an otherwise packed-out Stephen Avenue as I have been several times before and the food never disappoints. We were a group of 4 and shared many things - Smashed Cucumber salad and charred potatoes were awesome and the carpaccio is awesome as always. Service was great and while there were only a couple groups in the restaurant, food and drinks hit just as they should.“

“Morgan is both a talented photographer, and an incredibly kind and fun-loving individual and I consider myself so lucky to have her in my circle of photog-friends. We worked on a styled shoot together earlier this year and it was an absolute BLAST. From working with our models for the session, to collecting items from vendors, working with booked clients following the styled shoot, AND the group of us photographers trading images of both Behind-the-scenes action, as well as styled and posed shots, she never fell short. Her style is beautiful and unique, her direction when shooting is on point, and her passion runs deep. Be it a paid private client or a fellow photographer looking for someone incredible to work with, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Morgan. You will not be disappointed!“
“A premium lounge for a VIP experience. This place was by far the best place to view the grand stand show and the Chuck wagon races. The food was amazing the cocktails were creative and very well crafted. Both the chef and bartender were on point. I have seen the grandstand a couple times and it was great. 2019 'trailblazer ' show was absolutely incredible.“

“This was the first place to eat in Calgary and first stop leaving the airport. We ordered the Large Maple Bacon Poutine. This had double Smoked maple bacon topped with maple syrup. Loved the sweetness of the dish and this was one of the better poutines I've eaten in Canada. A lot of really interesting poutines in the menu, would like to try others.“

“Tonight we went to Sky 360 to celebrate our daughter in heaven on her 6th birthday. When our waitress asked if we were celebrating something special we mentioned it was our oldest daughter’s 6th birthday but didn’t tell her she had passed away as we didn’t want to make her uncomfortable. As she watched us celebrate our daughter Piper and noticed she wasn’t there but her 3 year old little sister was I think she must have caught on. Her intuition and compassion was absolutely incredible. The service was amazing in general but our server Devon went above and beyond to make a hard night so special as she surprised us with candles on all our deserts to blow out for our daughter, and the most heart felt comments wishing her a happy birthday. This was the most incredible experience we could have had on such a hard day. The food was incredible, the atmosphere was amazing, and Devon seriously deserves some sort of raise! We will 1000% support this business in the future and wanted to show our support now with a truly heartfelt thankyou for making a hard night really special. 20/10 experience in our books.“
