Scallop appetizer was amazing! Orange roughy and Portobello was also delicious, fish was cooked very well. Portion sizes were generous for French food. We've been going for years and love the space.

The atmosphere and service were excellent. But for some reason food wasn’t that tasty. We went to this restaurant before and remember that we enjoyed the food. Either different chief or just a bad day. Overall not worth the price….

I don’t usually leave bad reviews, but I had high hopes for this place and unfortunately, it didn’t live up to them. Where do I even begin... The waitress was pretty harsh and not welcoming at all. My friend and I felt really uncomfortable, especially since she was so short with us. She didn’t share any recommendations, just asked our IDs, and then pretty much disappeared. The whole atmosphere was off.
The oysters weren’t very fresh, though the Chardonnay Blanc was good.
I’m giving 3 stars mainly because we were served by a different waiter—he was really kind and professional. Also, the ostrich tenderloin I ordered was cooked perfectly.

Tasty food, thoughtfully presented. Small, quirky dining room. Clean bathrooms suggestively decorated! Bizarre and erratic service, but if you're patient, there is a certain charm. Remember Fawlty Towers? The inattentive owner seemed to be tanked and drifted around the room. He told us we could order only wine, even though there was plainly a wall of alcohol bottles. When we finally caught his eye and begged for beer, he offered only one Portuguese beer, even though he had others in the fridge. What a rude and puzzling performance, and yet we found the whole evening pretty entertaining.

The service is warm and friendly. The food is exceptional. Mussels and frites are a must. Each of my family members had great entrées and my vegetarian entrée was delicious. Their surprise Birthday treat was fun and tasteful! Thanks!! I'll be back!

The ambiance at the French restaurant was charming, and we were excited to indulge in some delightful desserts featuring fresh fruit. However, our experience was somewhat tainted as the fruits in our desserts weren't as fresh as we had hoped. The strawberries seemed tired, and the raspberries appeared to be several days old. Despite this hiccup, the overall dining experience was still enjoyable, and we appreciate the effort put into creating such a lovely atmosphere.

We have been quite a few times. Meals are substantial, well prepared and well presented. Very typical French service. Not rushed at all. Unlike a lot of other restaurants we frequent.
Parking: That area of Calgary has limited parking. Can be an issue.

I meant to write this sometime ago because the fantastic experience we had at Flor de Sel for the romantic Valentines dinner was superb. It had been several months since we were at the restaurant, and I am pleased to say the food quality is wonderful, service attentive, and pleasant, and the atmosphere is, as always, charming and reminiscent of a beautiful place in ?? France!For those of us, who are looking for a little bit of Europe here in Calgary, we think Fleur de Sel is a quintessential destination!
