River Café is a hidden gem located on Prince's Island Park in Calgary. It's not just a meal, it's a journey. As one reviewer put it, 'The food is different enough to be special (interesting combinations of local flora and fauna), without being too unusual for 'meat and potatoes' diehards to enjoy.' The restaurant's commitment to using fresh, locally sourced ingredients and rustic, quaint ambiance makes it a must-visit destination. One customer even mentioned it's a 'Michelin star worthy' experience. So, it's definitely worth the drive!

    My wife ordered rotisserie chicken and I ordered salmon special. Both are excellent nd we compliment the chef for that. Service and ambience was way above par.

    We truly enjoyed our dinner at Chop last evening!! Our food was superb and the ambience was beautiful. We have been to three Chop restaurants in the Edmonton area and they don’t compare to Chop at Barlow!! We also enjoyed meeting with the head chef after our meal was completed. Will definitely love to return!

    Chairman’s is one of my favourite restaurants ever. Where do I even start… The ambiance is beautiful, whether it’s the lake views or the decor everywhere you look there are beautiful details (the menus softly light up when you open them and every bathroom is a bidet as well). The service is next to none, thoughtful and kind staff and again every detail is thoughtfully curated throughout your entire dining experience. We had Dany as our server and we just loved him. So respectful and friendly, he really gave us a great experience. The food… wow. Consistently incredible and made with so much love and care. There is not one thing I’d complain about at this restaurant other than the fact that you won’t find such a well rounded and consistent fine dining experience anywhere else and it ruins you lol.

    My son took me for lunch and it was outstanding! The food was great, the service was superb and the atmosphere was awesome! Also the company was extra good! Even though it was busy we could still communicate just fine! I would recommend the Broken plate to anyone who likes Mediterranean cuisine!
