   We decided to partake in the YYC Food experience since we did last year and loved it. This time around the service from our waitress and the dessert was the only thing worth mentioning. The first course was okay, but could have been cooked more. Entrees weren’t anything special to rave about. The ambience was horrible. While restaurants cannot control their guests, it was so loud I could barely hear what my partner was saying. At one point we sat in silence because we felt like we were in competition with the loud obnoxious patrons. If I am going out to such an expensive restaurant to partake I would at least like to enjoy the time I spend especially since the time we waited between each course was sooo long!

   Was a massive disappointment. While it could have e great views, most people are forced to stare at a wall. There are only a couple truly great tables. Out reservation was at 7on. Saturdaynight. We ordered our starters and wine quickly enough. And the starters arrived in short order and were very good. Our entrees were a different story. Around 8 pm the server began apologizing for not having our mains out yet. At 8:20 our fish and steak were put on the table. The fish was quite well prepared, but the steak was inedible. The server apologized again and explained the chef took the night off. However he was there to watch how the staff did without him. Not sure how he felt, but we will never recommend this restaurant to anyone. In the end, they didn't charge for the steak.

   Special shout out to Cloud in food and beverage department for saving me from my reservation issue. We truly enjoyed our dinner at The Wilde. Nice change from the typical YYC family style dining. It was nice to enjoy my own plate and the amazing presentation.

   We went to Wilde on 27 for a birthday dinner. The view of downtown Calgary added to the ambience. Denise and Addison provided excellent service. The food was outstanding. We were never rushed and thoroughly enjoyed our experience there. Well done!

   Service was outstanding and the food even more so! The menu is smaller and has more a lot of seafood (which isn’t for me) but there are still some great options and it’s all delicious! The squash starter is delicious and the red wine pear is absolutely amazing!

   Marla was an amazing server! All staff were fabulous but Marla totally got us! 💕 We expect to have an “extraordinary” experience when we are out and The Wilde delivers every time! 👍🏻

   This was a full on satisfying experience. I am so happy with my visit to the Wilde. I did the Chefs table tasting. And it was absolutely wonderful. The dishes were so creative, so unique. Delicious. The atmosphere was wonderful, I really enjoyed the view. And the staff they were so welcoming, lovely, their knowledge and service, top notch.

    Terrible experience – not recommended! As soon as we walked in, no one greeted us or paid attention. I had to go find the host myself. Despite having a reservation for a specific time, we still had to wait a long time before being seated. When I booked, I requested a table by the window, but of course, that was ignored, and we were placed against a wall. The tables are so close together that we could clearly hear conversations from the neighboring tables. Service was painfully slow – from the moment we entered the restaurant to the time our food arrived, it took 1 hour and 40 minutes. The prices are outrageous, yet the portions are small and the food is disappointing. The only dish that was actually good was the duck, but for $60, all you get is a single leg on a plate. The meat was overly sweet, and it really needed at least a small salad or some sides. The bison meat was completely tasteless. To top it all off, on Valentine’s Day, they were giving flowers to women as they left – yet for some reason, our table was skipped. And at the end, the payment terminal wasn’t working, so we were forced to pay in cash. How is that even acceptable? Overall, a horrible experience. Definitely would not return.
