The cutest little spot with great food and top notch service. Can't wait to go back for more cheese fondue!!
Great evening for our anniversary, staff was attentive and helped us with menu options. Food was delicious!
Terrible menu. Service was poor. Overpriced. No Appetizers on the menu. JUST cheese fondue with dippers to choose from and the bottomless vs 2 person fondue was confusing. Dog crap in the rocks leading up to the patio. Slow service.
My first cheese fondue experience and it was excellent! The service fantastic and the room is absolutely charming! Already planning for date night with my sweetie.
Had a great night at all you can eat fondue. We added on some extras like the pickles and asparagus and it was all very good. The service and staff were so nice and made the experience even better.

Moonlight & Eli is a hidden gem! Cozy, romantic, and absolutely delicious. We came for fondue and champagne and ended up with a full spread: charcuterie, olives, bread, fruit… every bite was perfection. Rich, flavorful, and beautifully curated.
The vibe is intimate but welcoming, perfect for a date night or special occasion. I honestly don’t know what the final bill came to, and that compliment goes entirely to my date… but whatever it was, it was worth it.
Highly recommend. I’ll be dreaming about that fondue. I'm craving it again now honestly.

Fondue with your pinkie out but it still feels like home on a Sunday night.
A total experience. If you are looking for champagne flights (super cool), a cozy atmosphere with jamming tunes (Portishead, Sneaker Pimps, etc), cheese, veggies, meats (we did veg) and finally five star service, this is your home.
Kym and Natasha were our hosts and they knew how to come in, suggest pairings, keep the flame hot and give our table space to have a special dinner night. Natasha even scraped the bowl “the nun” for us and friggin delicious!! The food has to be good, sure but when its paired with five star service you know you went to the right place.
Do make a reservation as its really small and cozy. Do keep that reservation as if you dont it impacts a great group of people.
Seriously a cool, funky Calgary gem that is good for both veggies and meatheads who want a sharing style night out.
Thank you Moonlight and Eli!

Had a great time here celebrating my anniversary. We got Swiss fondue, champagne flights, red wine, espresso martini (best one I’ve ever had) and topped it off with a chocolate fondue for dessert. WOW so good!! We left so full and can’t wait to go back.

I took my wife for the fondue tonight. The restaurant was busy! So the staff were hustling and our service was good. The food was excellent. We had the olives to start and then had the AYCE cheese fondue. We added the charcuterie meat and each had a glass of bubbly. This is a great little place that hits the notes well. We will probably be back. Thanks so much for the experience.

My partner and I were very excited to attend Moonlight and Eli for the first time but were extremely disappointed in the overall experience.
We expected the restaurant to be small, but it was much tighter than expected. We were seated at the bar and when people would walk behind our chairs they would often bump them or even stumble.
Waters weren't provided until we asked which is fine but the fact that the bar top was connected to where the sink is, when we asked she literally filled our glasses from the tap. Due to the small space, the staff also were passing dirty dishes from other tables right infront of us. Although they apologized it was still very unprofessional and happened throughout the evening.
The price point was quite steep for what was included. $32.50 per person which didn’t include protein. When the waitress took our order she had to repeat it back 3 times and still failed to get it correct without writing anything down. We were disappointed in the cheese as we felt like it lacked flavour and tasted very bland.
Overall felt like the restaurant was trying to go for that classy expensive price point without the experience to match.

Intimate little restaurant. Great atmosphere and the service was top notch. They had all-you-can-eat fondue on. Recommended.
Had the meatballs, charcuterie, broccoli added.
The two ladies serving the restaurant were engaging and interactive.
Recommended. Make reservations.

What a delightful gem! We heard about the all-you-can-eat fondue special and made the trip from Lethbridge to Calgary to try it out. It was absolutely worth the drive! 😍 The cheese- scrumptious. The chocolate- decadent. The staff- wonderfully delightful. The vibe and atmosphere- cozy and homey. We came for the all you can eat, and will be back for more, even after construction is done! Highly recommend you grab your closest friends and your longest forks to enjoy this exquisite experience!
