We rented a private room for a bachelorette party and the service was amazing. Our server was super kind and offered to take pics of us. The food was absolutely delicious and everything went smoothly. I have absolutely nothing to fault!

Enjoyed our dinner here, my fav was the phyllo wrapped cheesecake.
First time at Braven and would for sure return again when in Edmonton. We had the Tomahawk for the 2 of us with all the side fittings. We also ordered the cheese bread. Food was unreal. Great atmosphere even-though in a hotel lobby. Parking in the parkade can be a slight chalenge and a bit of a walk. Overall great

The crab cakes were fishy and the burger was dry. The Elk tar tar was not tar tar, but it was good. The wagyu carpaccio was wonderful. Won't be going back for the cost vs quality.

Went here for a welcome dinner for a friend visiting from Halifax. Braven presented him with some A5 Waygu beef expertly prepared. A unmatched Alberta Beef experience that he described as “life changing.”. Sorry for the lack of a photo all the meals were a feast for the eyes and we didn’t hesitate for photography.Highly recommend the divine Braven experience.

Had an amazing time last night. Right from the start and having our special requests accommodated, to the end when we were leaving. The food was incredible and staff provided a wonderful experience. Will definitely be dining here again!

I was disappointed this time round, especially since our previous experience was absolutely amazing. Sadly they were out of the Wagu Carpaccio. The food took way too long to arrive. Glazed carrots did not taste great (would not recommend). My steak wasn't as delicious as last time (not juicy/tender instead chewier). Server was nice although could have been a bit more attentive, as it wasn't very busy when we were there. Food presentation was nice. Might have just been an “off night”.

Had the Braven aged steak, so very delicious, and excellent service thank you Nick, I will be back.
From the moment we arrived the staff made us feel welcomed. Our server Nick is a true professional, last of a dying breed. He made us very comfortable and gave us great suggestions to make our evening awesome. The food was spectacular and we can't wait to visit again.

Our party of 8 could not be seated until all people arrived despite having a reservation, 5 of us had to sit in the lobby.At the end of the meal we were told that one person "typically" picks up the bill. We had 8 people and this was not an option with a tab nearing $1k. Food was mediocre and would not return.Restaurant messed up instructions for the birthday desserts being brought to the table.We also went upstairs to Alchemy where we paid about $4 more for the exact same drinks we'd had at Braven two floors below.All in all go somewhere else.

It’s my second time coming to Braven, with the first being for my anniversary and the second with my family from out of town. It is definitely pricier but the food is so delicious it’s worth the experience.For our food, the oysters, crab cakes and steak were definitely the highlight. Our waiter told us that the steaks are cooked over birch to give it this unique smoky taste, which really comes through. Even our relatives agreed it was one of the best steaks they’ve ever had. We were all super impressed and we didn’t have to wait long for our food! The red wine is also really good paired with the rib eye steak. I shared the porterhouse steak with 2 other family members and it was plenty.Highly recommend if you want to try upscale seafood/steak. This is one of my favourites in Edmonton for sure!Parking: Park in the ICE district in Lot #56 (it’s heated) and then walk out past the skating rink to get to the JW Marriott entrance.

We went for their Sunday brunch and it wasn't a great experience. The food was okay, the service was fine, and it was extremely expensive. I thought it would be fun to do a more expensive brunch for a celebration, and it was in the bottom half of all brunch places I've been. The only part I liked, was the atmosphere - it was a pretty cool looking room.Parking: A little pricey, but parking under the building makes accessing this restaurant very easy!
