This is one of the best restaurants in Calgary, with consistently outstanding flavours and high prices to match. My main course was garnished with these fantastic dehydrated melon slices that had been rehydrated. Tasty and very original. The service is consistently great: knowledgeable and appropriately friendly with no smarminess.
The only caution I have is for diners with allergies. On...

HI: Just when you think it can't get any better....they top that benchmark. Attended a wine (feature) dinner with a set menu and everything was amazing. Stunning Bordeaux and Sauternes with perfect food pairings. Attentive service in their usual fashion. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

The entrance seems a little strange at first as it is part of the hotel but soon opens out into a large reception area featuring a nice welcoming open fire. There are comfortable sofas or small tables around the periphery where you can sit and enjoy an aperitif from the extensive cocktail selection or a good wine selection. The waiter...

I stay at the Kensington Riverside Inn on a fairly regular basis and decided to try the Chef's Table. Their tasing menu looked interesting, but I wasn't that hungry and decided to order off of the menu. The food came at a good pace, and was creative and well done. Their wine list had some nice vintages if you know...

I have been wanting to try this restaurant for years. We finally decided on a boys night we would splurge for a good meal. This is a beautiful restaurant in a fantastic location. I counted maybe 12 tables, and when we arrived a large christmas party was going on in the lobby area. They had set up a large table....

We were searching for a place to eat on a blustery October night in Calgary and drove by this place. A quick look at Trip Advisor and we called to see if they had room. The restaurant was quiet (two other tables) but it was very nicely laid out with few tables and a great view of the kitchen. Unfortunately...
