    Apparently we were there for their last night.... service was great, wine was great, food was mediocre at best- chewy tempura haricots vert, and disappointing “Korean short ribs”... the best thing we ate was the bread. We ordered dessert only to be told that they were out of bananas- three of their four desserts had banana in them - so we went elsewhere for dessert 🙄

    An experience unlike anything else in Calgary. Not a stuffy steak house. Incredible atmosphere, unmatched food, friendly and prompt service, and even a visit from the owner to make sure we were enjoying our experience.

    I was there for my birthday with my mom and my friends and our server barely payed any attention to us and it wasn’t even busy. My mom got the surf and turf and instead of explaining to her that she’s suppose to cook the meat and seafood herself on the hot plate they looked at her weirdly when she asked them to take back the raw meat and cook it for her! My other friend had arrived and she told the guy at the door that she was here for a birthday party and he didn’t even look at her he just pointed to the door and rudely told her to “go inside and take it up the girls at the front” I work in the service industry myself and I’m not one to complain but I really did not enjoy myself at all. Our server made us feel like we were inconveniencing her by begin there!

    Jordan was an amazing server. He kept the mood light and funny and aided us in our menu selection. The food was fantastic. We will definitely be back for the Sunflower Seed Risotto and the Chef’s Choice Creme Brûlée.

    My wife and I decided to share several plates, we enjoyed the surf & turf hot rock and the caesar salad, however the buffalo cauliflower wings & the beef skewers were not very good. The skillet brisket yorkies were awful and thankfully the server took them off the bill. I find it hard to believe that a chef who is worth his salt actually served this to a customer. The best part of the dinner was the wine. We will never go there again and I cannot recommend this restaurant to anyone. I recommend passing on this restaurant.

    They had a new menu from the last time we were there and we loved everything we tried. We had 6 new items to share and definitely recommend and will be back to try the rest.

    We sat on the patio and enjoyed lots of entertainment on Stephen Ave! Service was absolutely top notch!!! The menu gave us lots of awesome choices and I don’t think we could’ve gone wrong with anything, we thoroughly enjoyed every single dish we tried! Can’t wait to go back!
