My daughter and son in-law took us there for my 65th birthday. As soon as we walked in, I was blown away by the amazing view from the 40th floor. The staff was pleasant and welcoming. Once we sat down we were greeted by Barry the bartender and he was amazing, he took such great care of us and truly made the night special. The food was incredible, truly some of the best I have had in a long time. Thank you Barry for taking such great care of my family on a special occasion.

We had an amazing experience at Major Tom. The server was very knowledgeable about halal food. He made sure we got the service needed. He also took beautiful pictures for us. The ambience was amazing. Had such a great experience.

We had an amazing experience at Major Tom! The reception greeted us so warmly as soon as we arrived, and she was incredibly nice. We were seated by the window as requested, and the view was absolutely stunning. We loved it! We were celebrating our anniversary and were greeted multiple times, which was very sweet. Kudos to Barry, our server, he was fantastic! Very friendly, knowledgeable about the menu. He gave great recommendations and really made our night. Truly excellent customer service! On our way out, Paolo helped us and he was just as wonderful, very kind and professional. We were also assisted by a few other servers throughout the night, and every single one of them was helpful and friendly. Overall, the food was great, the ambiance and view were incredible, and the customer service was the best we've experienced. Highly recommended! We will definitely be coming back.

My wife, daughter, and I visited Major Tom for our wedding anniversary over the weekend. If I could give Barry 10 stars for his service, I would. He helped us pick the perfect menu options based on our criteria. He made sure that none of our requests went unattended, went above and beyond to provide an unforgettable experience for my family. Will be back 1000%! Thank you Barry!

One of those “life changing meals”! My husband and I are foodies and he is a Chef and we were both wowed with everything we had. It was his birthday celebration and we were given a hand signed card. We started with the scallop crudo with an unforgettable mignonette, a mouth watering steak tartare and Caesar salad with amazing dressing and thick pieces of bacon. We had the potato puree which was an elevated mashed potato. We also had the memorable sweet potatoes with sweet potato chips and lime seasoning. The potatoes complemented my striploin and bernaise which was cooked to perfection and my husband's filet which was well seasoned. We finished with the carrot cake which was not too sweet and the perfect amount of frosting in layers. Highly recommend it all!

I come here every time I’m in Calgary and always have a great experience. Love the environment and aesthetic, and the service is always 10/10. Tonight we had Isaac and he was phenomenal! He had great drink recommendations, was attentive, funny, down to Earth and easy to talk to! Also really appreciate that everyone who dropped off food told us it was gluten free (instead of just putting it down and leaving) as my mom had a gluten allergy so the extra reassurance was really nice!

The view and atmosphere far exceeded the food. I was expecting great food. But we were served alright food. The menu wasn't outstanding. The location is everything. The care taken to the looks of this place exceeds the care taken to the food. I had higher hopes. The staff were a little pretentious.

My best friend and I went to Major Tom to have a celebration, and we loved the cocktails and food. The view and atmosphere were spectacular. We started at 4pm and got to enjoy their golden hour, and we finished around 7pm. The only little downside was our server being a bit rude by making us feel like we need to wrap it up near the end. We got a total of 6 drinks and 4 dishes to share. While we were still slowly picking at our main and pasta, she came over a few times asking if we were done, even though we already told her we were still working on it, and then we both also ordered another cocktail. Shortly after, she came back again asking if she can pack our food to go for us, and it just makes us feel unwelcome so we just told her it’s ok to clear the plates. Then she delivered the dessert menu and after we told her we were too full, she was in a hurry to give us the bill. We know that might’ve been dinner rush hour coming up, but we were mindful and looked around to check to see if there were still empty tables, which there were, also there wasn’t a line up either when we left. We checked to see if there was a dining time limit, but there wasn’t any listed. We thought this was somewhere where we could enjoy the night and ordered more drinks and stayed to chat. I feel we would have just been way more appreciative if she had just straight up told us that, there is a time limit, or if there are guests waiting for this table. We would have been understanding, it was just the passive aggressiveness that made it unenjoyable, but overall the restaurant is great!

Everything was absolutely perfect. Best salad ever, waitress was amazing. I asked for a table by the windows and we got one. There was nothing else I could have asked for.

We celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary there, and it was wonderful. The food was fantastic, and we enjoyed one cocktail (Butterfly Elbow) that was very good and beautifully presented. The views were stunning, so be sure to ask for a window seat if one is available!

Came here for our anniversary, such a great choice. The views are breathtaking, the food is superb and the drinks are great! On the pricier side, but you can't beat the location for a nicer night out.

I have heard so many great things about this place for so long so we finally decided to give it a shot for our anniversary. we came in later in the evening just for a few cocktails, we had one of the best seats in the house! the thing that really made this an incredible experience was our server Maryann, she hit the nail on the head with fine dining service, menu knowledge, and being super kind. she made this such a delightful experience for us, and the amazing table, view and drinks were a perfect bonus too! as a person with neurodiversity that really struggles with noise levels, this place was so comfortable for me, even though the place was almost full, they listened to my seating request in my reservation and, even though it was almost full we were able to talk at a normal volume and hear each other across the table with no issues at all. we booked our next reservation as we were at the table. such an amazing experience that made our night extra special, we are looking forward to our next visit! thank you Maryann!
