    Lucas was an excellent server; the restaurant service is very well organized. The food is outstanding. It was very busy and loud, but that was not a surprise. Getting our coats at the end was a bit of a challenge due to the volume of people.

    Super fun night with family. Service was outstanding and the meal was delicious. We loved trying the veggie dishes - not our typical “ first food choice” when we are out. Price was very reasonable as well. Pleasant surprise for a meal for 5 people with wine!

    Didn't love our server. Every time she arrived at our table she would loudly interrupt and cut off our conversations without even waiting a beat to let us stop talking. She seemed very busy and maybe she had more tables than she could handle which probably wasn't her fault. She was definitely showing a sense of urgency and trying to be efficient every time she swung by but she wasn't very pleasant and I hated how she kept interrupting us.

    I just loooove this place. There is a reason you have to make reservations sooooo far in advance. The food - over many years - is consistently interesting and next-level delicious. And the same can be said for the staff - who are always so lovely and accommodating. It’s still my favourite restaurant in Calgary.

    I am regular customer at tenfoof Henry. It was my favorite place to go but it changes so much. Friday lunch at 1pm. So many people & service was really poor. Couldn't find servers 😪.. Until I get to pay.....my main came before vegi dishes, oh boy....would I pay for lunch over $130 for getting fast food service?? Nope. Definitely not!

    Another lovely experience! Some of the best food I have had. It all feels like such great quality and there are many unique items and parings. I leave feeling full but like I ate relatively healthy. For example, the beets are served on a creamy tahini based sauce and it tastes so rich and decadent but it is not so bad! Huge fan. Will be back. Loved the beets, salmon and the pistachio noodle dish.

    Went back here for the second time to bring my sister who was a first timer. The food was consistently delicious but my sister felt uneasy hearing the staff from the bar and our server that seemed to be gossiping about her since she was feeding her crying baby.

    I recommend the resteraunt. Monday night before 7 and the place was packed. Very popular, casual up scale, unique presentation of familiar food, meant to be shared. Well beyond my wage level for regular visits, but I will be back for desserts. I commend the staff for their hard work to handle so many tables. Be patient, it will turn out to be very nice experience.

    We went for a birthday lunch and really enjoyed the striploin, fried potatoes, and tomatoes. Desserts are also really good. For non-alcoholic beer try the Kolsch.

    Scallops tasted as fishy as I have ever tasted a scallop. I was really hoping for a buttery fresh explosion in my mouth. The server did credit us for that dish and we didn't even ask for it so that was a nice surprise. I don't really like to complain much. I love seafood, I just have not tasted such a fishy scallop. Not really for me. It had me wondering if they were still good to be honest. Thanks though I will be back.

    We’ve only been twice, a year apart, and the food was equally good. In fact we ordered the same pasta each time. It was consistently delicious and that’s a sign if a great restaurant. The food is fresh, everything we saw on every table looked delicious.

    We booked a month in advance and were not disappointed at all! Our server was lovely and made the experience even better. The food was brought out quickly but we didn’t feel rushed. We had the scallops, Tripolini and the cauliflower. The scallops were very well done and different to what we had in the past. They were cooked perfectly and came with a great sauce and lentil mix. The pasta was also delicious. Thin tomato sauces are often bland and leave you wanting more but this was outstanding. It had bacon and sundries tomatos and had a little bit of heat. The cauliflower was the best thing we had hands down (besides dessert). It was piled high with a spicy gochujang sauce and cooked perfectly and had a fresh scallion and ginger mix sprinkled on top along with a sesame sauce. It was absolutely amazing and would highly recommend to anyone. To top it all off we indulged in dessert. Our server recommended the butterscotch pudding. I am a die hard crime brûlée fan and this blew most of them out of the water. It wasn’t overly sweet even though it came with salted caramel and sponge toffee on top. We shared it between 2 of us and it was perfect. One of the BEST desserts we have EVER had. If you go, you need to have it.

    Amazing service but found the food inedible for both our appetizer and one of the dinners. I ordered the chicken which was good. Couldn’t even understand the dessert menu because it was so complicated in its description we didn’t know what it was. To me it’s another restaurant that’s focused on fancy ingredients and fancy descriptions, but missed the value of more simple, delicious food
