We had one fairly picky person in our party that requested some specifics on his order. So, before the chef cooked his meal, he came out to our table to make sure he understood what he wanted. That was cool

The staff went out of their way to accommodate the physical limitations of our 90 year old parent. We were moved to a more accessible area which as very much appreciated. The duty manager who seated us and took initial orders and then server were attentive and very professional. Our meals were first rate. Reason for 4 star for ambience is the choice of music did not work for us from a dining pleasure perspective and the sound level as we found it made conversation difficult.

Great service. Delicious food. A little noisy and quite crowded. VERY pricey. It was $165 plus tip for two of us. 2 drinks each. Meals with one side. Coffee and dessert. Everything was well prepared and delicious. Because of the cost, we only go there when we have gift cards.

Always fantastic service and food. Highly recommend it as it’s very rare a restaurant hits a grand slam with 10’s across the board for food, service, value, authenticity, and the overall fine dining experience. It’s the type of place you’ll want to become a regular at. Thank you again to the staff, chef and whole team.

Bonterra is one of our go-to restaurants, the food is always amazing and the ambience is excellent! I usually go during warmer weather to sit on the best patio in Calgary, but new years day in Calgary is not conducive to dining al fresco :-) so this was my first time dining inside - not as lovely as the patio of course but it was still very nice. The food was so good - there was 6 of us for a birthday dinner and so we were able to try a good variety of items on the menu, everything was well prepared and delicious, and the Bartender's Baby cocktail special was a big hit. Best of all was our server, she was an absolute delight and very attentive and friendly (without overdoing it).

A great experience enjoying the prix fixe menu. Crab cakes were a bit mealy, but still tasty. My husband had chicken for main, I went for the vegetarian: mushroom and lentil dish. Both were delicious. The star of the meal was the dessert: chocolate terrine perfumed with lavender, caramelized banana and berries, simply divine. A beauty for $35 per person. Grab it before it's gone!
