We had a lunch reservation for four people on the rooftop and when we arrived we were given a table inside. I asked the hostess if there was anyway to get a table in the sun,where a double table was unoccupied simply because we were with two older people who were experiencing muscle pain and the heat would help, and she said we can't accommodate you because that's a table of 8 and you're only 4. I didn't understand seeing that we had a reservation and I asked if she had a reservation for that table and she said no. Then I heard her mumble to another staff member that I was asking for too much and that I should "f" off. It's was at that point I told our waitress not to pour us any water as we will be leaving. She was so kind to ask what was the reason and when I explained the situation she moved us without an issue and said this wasn't a big deal. After being shut down due to covid you would think that customer service would be better but I guess not. I was so excited to bring my guests to your rooftop as I have always had a great experience. That won't be happening again.
MODERN STEAK ROOFTOPResponded 4 days agoHello Michael, Thanks for talking the time to talk to us today and being so kind, this review was heartbreaking to read. We apologize again as this behavior is unacceptable by any standard. This employee is no longer in a host position with Modern, so this can never happen again. What we truly look forward to is having you back in again to show Modern's true spirit of hospitality. All the best, Stephen Deere Owner

We were celebrating my birthday tonight and looking forward to a special night out. No complaints about the food. It was good. The service, however, was interesting. We are still trying to piece together our experience. We found our server condescending but in a way where we thought at times he was trying to be funny. We truly tried to give him the benefit of the doubt but there were too many one off comments made that were offensive. He was not pleasant, did not tell us anything about the menu or the dishes we chose to order (usually when coming to Modern Steak the servers are very knowledgeable and love to educate on the steak cuts and sides to pair, etc), and often when he came around he gave off the vibe that he was bothered by us. He even made a comment how we were a high maintenance couple, in a sarcastic tone. Overall, we enjoy the atmosphere and food at Modern Steak but this one particular server unfortunately did not make my birthday celebration as special as we had hoped!

It’s always a delight coming to Modern Steakhouse at any of their Calgary locations: their food is always impeccable. Their staff are very knowledgeable and they want to make sure you have a good time at their place. My cousin was in town and I wanted to take her to Modern Steak, I was nervous taking her here, not because I didn't think their food was good but rather I recently turned vegetarian and thought I wouldn't have much to eat while I was there, its a steakhouse afterall. I still wanted to show her how good Modern Steak was! The staff recommended the mushroom risotto and wow! It was really creamy and flavourful. Their brussel sprouts are amazing (kind enough to take the bacon out for me this time around). My cousin’s steak experience was 10/10. Rest assured there's still stuff on their menu that can be catered for vegetarians. Our tummy's were content! Will always recommend Modern Steak ☺️

I was super excited for this place but it was terrible. Our service was extremely slow. We asked the hostess twice if we can either move tables to be in the shade or if they could put the cover of the roof down and they declined our request. Then when another table asked it was done without any hesitation. There was a bone in the sandwich I ordered which the server apologized for and said it shouldn’t have been there. So apart from him there was nothing good about this place.

Great food knowledge! Food was exceptional and the rest of the table really enjoyed their steaks with a special callout to the sauces. Even for someone who doesn’t eat meat the fish options were savoury and the risotto dish was the best I’ve had to date! Really good baked Alaska dessert.
