Went for dinner. Have nothing but good things to say. Found the steaks to have a more of a smoke flavour this time which was amazing for me. Even the charred bread had a bit of a smoke flavour. The sides were delicious, can never go wrong with the ceviche and avocado spread. Service was amazing, staff was very friendly. Over the years, this place has been one fo my favourite spots in Calgary. They also make some pretty fine pisco sours. Vegetarian options: Side dishes could be an entree themselves. Parking: Currently construction going on the street but a 1min walk to a parking lot with plenty of space.
Enjoyed family dinner in this beautiful restaurant. Our server Souhail was so personable and attentive. And the food, well, let's just say my husband who struggles with vegetables had second servings of the eggplant and squash dishes! Will definitely return!
We did the set brunch menu from the YYC Expo event. The yogurt parfait was delicious but on the tiny side and I hope the main menu version is larger. Ham and eggs Benedict also nothing technically wrong but quite plain and bland for a restaurant of this caliber. The eggplant Benedict was delicious and my favourite of the two. The chocolate torte was rich, creamy, and just the right amount to finish off the meal. Overall their brunch menu is okay.
We visited for my wife's birthday and while a bit pricey, the food and atmosphere are top notch. The steaks we ordered (fillet and NY) were tender and cooked to perfection. Love the Argentinian fare as well. Kid-friendliness: Had a kids menu, but only 2 options.
We really like how the restaurant looks inside! We tried their lunch special for the YYC Food & Drinks Exp for $35. I really liked the salad. It was my first time trying beef fat fries and it does have a certain aftertaste. But if you eat it with ketchup it’s not that noticeable. Added a little bit of salt on the steak and it was very good! For more food content follow me @yummy.yyc on Instagram and TikTok!

The restaurant has a nice vibe and the food is okay as well. Thanks Mark, continue to provide your excellent service!
