Four key pieces separate us from a traditional steakhouse.

1) We only serve ranch specific Alberta Beef. That means we don’t serve beef from anywhere else on the planet. We know our farmers and ranchers personally and respect the hard work they put into produce our beef. We like our beef to be, hormone & antibiotic free and pasture raised. Happy cattle make for better steaks.

2) We are one of just a handful of steakhouses in Canada that serves, Grass-fed, Grain-fed, Wet-aged, Dry-aged and Wagyu beef 365 days a year. Our beef is always fresh never frozen.

3) We use an 1800o Infrared Grill to cook your steaks. Our grill stays at very consistent high heat versus a traditional open flame grill. The high heat creates a flavourful crust on outside of the steak and leaves a juicy centre.

4) Our décor is warm and modern. The tradition has always been dark wood, leathers and a muted palate for a steakhouse. We broke the mold and decided to add hand selected music that reflects us!

    I went to Modern with my partner on a Saturday night. We took advantage of the “date night deal” which looks like a great deal. However, the experience was very much poor and probablyone of the worst I have seen. The service was rushed and the food was not worth it. Our steaks arrived less that 15 minutes after ordering. It was evident that they had been pre-cooked and just quickly seared before serving. The grill marks were barely visible and seems to be only on one side of the steak. The sides were just ok, nothing special. Overall, don't waste your money. If you want a good steak in Calgary, go somewhere else. I know I will.

    We went for the date night deal. Great service and food along with a nice bottle of wine. A great deal and an excellent opportunity to try a nice restaurant. We really enjoyed the experience and evening. The service was excellent and attentive.

    We decided to book a date night with my mother and sisters before a ballet show tonight. Our server, Dan, was phenominal and I highly recommend him to anyone who books with Modern Steak. The quality of the steak, sides, and wine were 10/10. Would do again.
