Good atmosphere and friendly professional service. Great place to meet and hang out with friends. The food is interesting with artistic flare but lacks the amazing taste that you'd expect from it.

This is a pretty nice fine-dining spot. Good place for pictures too.
The portions and flavors are generally okay, and the service is good. We ordered quite a few dishes, so I might not remember all the exact names correctly.

• Beef tartare: 6/10. Personally, I found it a bit too plain.

• Taco: 8/10. Lots of layered ingredients, and the perilla leaf helps balance out the roe’s brininess.

• Scallop: 7/10. The scallop was sweet and fresh, and the sauce paired well. It also came with a side salad.

• Empanada: 9/10. Crispy on the outside but juicy inside.

• Short ribs: 10/10.

• Sirloin: 10/10. The crispy potatoes on top were the highlight, and they went perfectly with the tender, slow-braised meat.

Went here for a work Christmas party. The company rented the back area. Amazing ambiance and the food was out of this world. The only downside is parking can be a challenge but to be expected when you are downtown.

Was excited to try as I had heard great things. The food was underwhelming based on the hype and our squash dish came out completely uncooked. Our service also wasn't great. We could have hit a time when the menu just didn't match the standard they've set and had a fresh server or something. Atmosphere is really cool and my cocktail was good!

Nice restaurant, good food and amazing service. I put 4 because the food was oversalted (steak), and also a bit too loud, with music and tables so close to each other its impossible to chat. But music was very nice. They have some private areas there, definately would be better idea to book there. Also parking is a bit of a hustle.

For the price point of this restaurant, alot is left to be desired. Portion sizes are relatively quite small, and quite expensive. Personally would go to other places like bridgette bar if you are looking for better value. Place also specifically charges you just for water which I haven't seen too often if any in Calgary.

Best part of the restaurant is the environment. I'll give it up to the staff though, they will try and address any issues with food as best as they can if you have issues.

Probably will not return and my entire group of 6 people were not somewhat even content with the food.

So good, family style was ideal for our 10 top. Service was on it, food incredibly tasty and unique. The room is sick.

Had such a great time at Fortuna Row. The food was really good, the vibe was fun, and everything just felt easy and comfortable.

Our server Tessa was awesome — super friendly, checked in at all the right times, and made us feel genuinely welcome. You can tell she really cares about what she does. She definitely made the night better.

Will 100% be coming back.

This was our first time ever coming to Fortuna's Row and can definitely say it will not be our last. From the food to the service everything was 10/10. Our plates and drinks always came in a timely manner which allowed for an amazing dining experience taking in so many great flavours. And our server Courtney was such a kind soul it made everything even better.

We have a Christmas get together with coworkers. the food was great (as always, Fortuna's Row is my fav spot) We ordered way too much food I think the night was busy so our server wasn't around much, but other than that we had a really great time and great experience.

I love that Calgary has a restaurant like this. Fortuna's row is bringing creativity with its menu, instead of the same rinse-and-repeat offerings we see at similar spots.
We went for brunch and tried a few dishes, all of which were delicious. The portions were generous and we left full and satisfied. If I were being picky, I would say some dishes leaned a bit toward over-seasoned (bordering on salty), but it did not detract from the overall experience. I would absolutely go back.

First time here for us. We tried the let us feed you option. They take allergies and certain food info from you and then 5 courses came in such a good pace. The food was fantastic and the curated dishes were well selected and the portions were perfect for the two of us. Our server was fantastic, she had fantastic drink recommendations and was on top of service for us. Such a great food experience that I wish was an option at more places!

We learned what many others have already dis covered, Fortuna's Row is one of Calgary's most prized food experiences. The atmosphere is cozy and rustic, the service is impeccable, and the food - WOW!
