   Food was fantastic, as was the service. The price of a glass of wine is completely absurd. $33 for an 8 oz glass of wine...this is completely insane.

   My friends and I had such a great time meeting up here for a birthday dinner. We would like to say we LOVED Alex our server. He was next level service and we all couldn't agree more. Alex rivaled the food for sure and we said we'd come back just for Alex. Such a sweet person! Food was amazing as usual. Ravioli is to die for as is the broccoli and endive citrus salad. Will absolutely be back.

   The restaurant was lively and up beat, and the decor is modern. My wife and I had a table on the second level that overlooked Stephen Ave., which was nice for people watching because it was a warm March evening. The food was excellent and the service was great. I recommend this restaurant for any kind of event (couples, family or after work drinks).

   One of my favorite spots! The burger is one of the best in Calgary. Great food and drink options, excellent service and very vibrant atmosphere (it can get a bit loud at times). We will definitely be back!

   Everything was great. Pasta was a little undercooked. Server also didn’t verify that adding protein to pasta was an extra $14 and Parmesan was an extra $1

   Server did not return to see if we wanted food before happy hour pricing was expired... so we paid and left

    The dinner experience is not great when you’re constantly told you need to be done at a certain time and then rushed through the entire evening.

    Hi Gina, thank you for taking the time to share feedback. We're disappointed to hear your visit was not what it should've been and you felt rushed. If a table has a seating window, we try diligently to stay on track with the timeline without compromising service and guest experience., we've shared your feedback with the management team for consideration. We hope for another chance to provide a better dining experience next time.
