    Food was good but did not live up to the hype. The server was nice but did not check in enough, I wanted to order some wine with my dinner but did not see her until I was basically finished.

    Went for YYC food and drink around 1:30 p.m. Food was amazing and cocktail was yummy! Service provided by the server was a big disappointment leaving us feel like we were an inconvenience at best as we watched the server visit with other tables for periods of time while we waited long stretches to be noticed. We were never asked how the food or cocktails tasted. Would recommend for the food, drinks, atmosphere.

    Really, really good food. Had the prix fixe with steak (more rare than my liking), charred kale salad (wanted to lick the plate to enjoy all the dressing) as well as the grilled chicken (accompanying fries absolutely stole the show), beet salad (really tasty), burrata (zucchini relish was nice but a bit bland) and the honey tart (phenomenal). Service was very good, ambiance was lively, loud (but not overwhelming) and fun. Overall a very good place to go for a date night. Would recommend and woud (will?) Most certainly go back.

    My favourite place to go, whether it’s business meetings, out with friends, a date, social evenings with my kids. As always, the food is consistent and outstanding. Any new additions to the menu are typically wonderful. Flavours are out together to delight the palate, and the most important thing: they accommodate all allergies and food preferences easily. The service is always fabulous and attentive. I can’t recommend Brigette Bar enough.

    We’ve been to Bridgette Bar in the past and loved it. We went recently for the YYC Food & Drink Exp and the prix fix meal was awful. I got the risotto and couldn’t even finish it. The rice was undercooked, tasted of charcoal and smelled like fish. The seafood was drastically over cooked. My spouse got the polenta & steak which was overwhelmingly salty. Very disappointing meal!!!! Not worth it at all.

    The staff were friendly and really welcoming. I appreciated their attention to detail. The food was delicious - the brussels sprouts while tasty, did not look appetizing when they came to our table, that is the only think I would change.
