Very disappointed with the service here. Our dinner service was very poor, likely due to poor decisions made by management on how to handle a large party who ate at the same time as us. Staff were very kind and did their absolute best given the circumstances. First off, we made a reservation about a week in advance only to be seated close to 45 minutes after our reservation time. There were no waiting areas and we were required to stand while we waited to be seated. The host claimed we didn’t even have a reservation when it was written in their book for everyone to see. The manager unexpectedly gave us two free appetizers for waiting so long which was appreciated. Second, management decided to schedule a party of 95 at the same time as regular dinner service, meaning there were practically zero waitstaff available to take orders for and to accommodate my party. We waited 10 minutes after being seated to get our orders taken, almost 20 minutes for our appetizers and about 35 or so minutes for our entrees. The manager told us our orders were stuck behind the party of 95 which was very frustrating to deal with and in my opinion was very poorly managed. The restaurant was also ridiculously loud given that huge party of 95. It felt louder than a food court at the mall or a lunch time cafeteria in an elementary school. I would have appreciated if they just closed down the restaurant for the private event and rescheduled my reservation so my party could have eaten at a different restaurant and had a better experience there instead. In terms of the food, it was fine. My steak was cooked far too long for medium rare (it was more like medium well to well done), but tasted delicious nonetheless. I would have been a little bit happier with the quality of the meal and its price if my party didn’t have to wait so long and if the service was better. Overall, a pretty poor experience and it is unlikely my party will be returning here. I don’t blame the waitstaff for this poor experience, rather I blame management for choosing to host a large party of 95 during regular dinner service and not planning it out better. Very disappointed to say the least. EDIT: Management was also very kind enough to give us a 10% discount on-top of the two free appetizers. Very much appreciated. I wish service could have gone smoother though. Nevertheless, I appreciate what everyone did to make service go better.

This was actually our send time to Cravings, and our second time with the same amazing server (Jensen). The first time was so good we had to come back, and the second time was somehow even better than the first. Our first time, due to the area, we almost dismissed this place as somewhat of a gimmick. But we decided to give it a shot, and honestly it just feels like so much fun! You get to go up, order your food directly from the person making it, and they're super attentive and careful with everything. You can also see everything get made fresh, right there. The food, the food is amazing. It's not inexpensive, so you'll pay a bit more than some restaurants, but I assure you ever meal is worth it. The quality of the food comes through, and there is a richness to the flavours that makes every bite worth it. I've definitely over eaten both times, trying to get as much as I can in. The portions are bigger than you expect, so be prepared for that! I've had the BLTCO and the spaghetti Bolognese so far, and both of those were simply some of the best examples I've had at a restaurant ever. And make sure to save room for dessert, you don't be disappointed. We got the lemon tart the first time, which was stellar, and the creme brulee this time around, which was somehow better. The service from the staff is phenomenal, with excellent table manners, and not afraid to make solid recommendations, while also making you feel at home. As I mentioned, we got the same waiter twice, and having remembered us (and our drink orders, which was even more impressive) he was a wonderful addition to it all. He made us feel as if we were the regulars already (as we are likely to become). He had us laughing, was perfectly attentive, and got every detail correct. Do not sleep on this place, it is 100% worth it.

Oh, dear reader, join me on this whimsical journey of our latest brunch escapade at the "Melancholy Diner" - not its real name, but a fitting moniker considering the peculiar ambience that greeted us. Our party of nine was treated to an unforgettable experience, albeit one that left us scratching our heads and stifling our chuckles. Picture this: a lively group of friends eagerly awaiting a feast, only to be met with the disheartening sight of servers who seemed to have attended a rather solemn gathering just before their shift. It was as if we'd been transported to a parallel universe where smiles were a rare commodity. My CARDAMOM CHICKEN BREAST, priced at a hearty $27, had an impressive vanishing act, transforming from a breast to a minuscule drumstick with a bone. I must admit, the mediocrity of the dish made for a good laugh, especially with the price tag attached. Thankfully, the fries were a delightful treat, proving that miracles can happen even in the most unlikely of places. A colleague's steak bore a striking resemblance to a sponge, making us wonder whether we were part of an elaborate hidden-camera show. What a clever twist that would have been! Alas, the punchline remained elusive. As the minutes ticked away and we found ourselves waiting for the check - a whole 45 minutes after finishing our meal - we pondered if we had unintentionally upset the staff or if we had simply stumbled upon a diner where being ignored was all part of the charm. With heavy hearts and unfulfilled dreams of dessert and coffee, we left. It was a moment of true self-reflection as I, for the first time in my life, left a 0% tip. The comedic irony of the situation was not lost on me, and I felt compelled to share our unusual encounter. May it serve as a cautionary tale, and perhaps even provide a chuckle or two for fellow diners.

I called 11:10am to place an order, I was nearby & ordered truffle fries (I think they would usually come with a dip?-didn’t), & a beet salad, I was told 10 minutes. I arrived 20 minutes later. Informed them I was there for a pick up, and gave my name & they said it was almost ready. So I browsed around the coffee/dessert area, asking questions to the staff member about cake orders, as my birthday is coming up, he wasn’t very helpful, & he wasn’t busy, except for refilling his own coffee. I waited, approached by 3 other staff members asking if I had been helped, informed them all I was waiting for my order, with my name. I looked at the salad take out area, & as they got busy, I moved over (after waiting 15 minutes), to the entrance to not be in anyone’s way. After being told my fries & salad would be ready in 10 minutes, I waited over 30, eventually the barrister called me and was looking at me as my phone rang, saying my order was ready. I told him I didn’t pay yet, I also asked another staff member if I could pay for my order with no response. Anyway I realized my order had been sitting on the table for take out for at least 15 minutes, and it showed in the quality of the cold fries I received. Unfortunately my experience seemed that they catered to the “regulars” that came in while I waited, but I guess I just got “lost in the shuffle”. I own a business so I’m rating 4 stars because I understand how much google reviews mean to business & I support local, maybe I just came on a off day or something. Unfortunately I was not happy with the service, or food. I will return though to try again, because I understand restaurants have suffered over Covid so I continue to support local. Hopefully next visit will improve. I would have bought dessert & salad had I been able to receive more information. Oh well, maybe next time.

Something wasn't right for Father's Day 2022... Easter and Mother's Day visits were awesome and I was very impressed. Father's Day...MY supposed "special" day?? Not so much. In fact NOT AT ALL! Reservation for 11:45am...we arrived on time but waited 5 minutes by the door just to be shown to our seats. We were given menus...but no water, no refreshments, no service for another 15 minutes. They finally took our orders but the food did not arrive for at least 35 mins and my order came out wrong (ordered bacon, got sausage) and missing the pancakes that it should have come with. While waiting for the orders I flagged our server to ask if the food was coming soon...she replied "I hope so..." and apologetically offered us free soups. So we said thanks but waited another 8 or so minutes for the free soup. Food finally came and just lukewarm...some sausages were overdone. Server said she would be back with the pancakes but never did return. The Big Breakfast is stated as "3 farm fresh eggs" but it looked like it only had 2. Asked for the bill and that took another 20 minutes to get. ALL THIS considering the place was not even half filled with customers??? Too bad...I was quite happy to find this place the first time. Not sure I will be back. ----------------------------------------------- Apr. 17, 2022... Tried this place for the first time and OMG! How had I not discovered it sooner? They have a very interesting mix of choices on their menu and I will surely be back to try more dishes! I opted for the Farmer's Market Bowl and really enjoyed the crunchy potatoes and chorizo! Can't wait for the next visit. Oh and parking is free and easy too!

First time here as I heard it was good and wanted to try it out. The selection of food was pretty decent with different options to choose from. It's different in terms of dining experience as they provide cards so you can go around and order at the vendors and pay at the end. Great for people who want to pay individually. However, unfortunately, they gave us the wrong table cards and changed it after we had already placed our orders with the original cards which resulted in food not coming in a timely manner. We had to notify a server and the food came out after half an hour of waiting, to which, I was pretty much done my food. I ordered a chicken noodle soup but it was super salty which I couldn't finish. The server did offer to exchange with another soup but I wasn't interested in the other options so I let it go. Another diner from another table also said the same thing- salty soup and had the soup exchanged. The experience wasn't as great as I hoped for but would be willing to return to give it another chance and try other dishes.

Never written a bad review of a restaurant before - usually it's just one thing that's not quite up to standards. Here nothing was. Not sure when they make their Paninis but they are not freshly made if you're dining in. If they've run out of premade ones, they won't make you one fresh or one to order - you have to choose from the remaining ones in the deli case. Mine tasted like it was 3 days old. The bread was soaked and imbedded with pesto sauce; the outside was so hard I couldn't bite into it and the inside part was so soggy, I couldn't eat it. I couldn't taste or see any brie so I ate the 1 meager slice of tomato & the ounce or so of chicken. My lunch mate had chicken alfredo and said the chicken tasted off; she only ate the noodles. Maybe dessert would be better - yeah, no, not for the price. Almost $80 (with a lousy tip - never feel like I can leave nothing) for the two of us for lunch. I like the concept but unfortunately won't be eating here again.

Decided to stop in for lunch. This is our first time coming here. It's a great concept. There are several choices to choose from. One of those one stop places that have a bit of everything. The seating area is large enough to accommodate a lot of people. The staff are friendly and even took the time to explain to us the whole process. So you are given a card and you go to whatever station you want to order any item you want. So you can go order from every station if you want. Once the food is up a server will bring the food to your table. Then you settle your bills at the end of your meal. So for example my wife decided on a Thai dish, I went with the "A La Vodka" and my daughter had a burger, fried and a fruit bowl. My pasta was delicious. It had some chicken breast and some cured pork belly which was very nice compliment to my dish. Almost like a smoked bacon flavour. My wife really enjoyed her dish as well and the best part kids eat free! I would recommend coming here. You can bring the whole family and its sure to cater to everyones tastes buds.

Jambalaya, round 2! I posted a review about it a month ago, and it's very good, however.....The tails were still on the shrimp! I shouldn't have to pull the tails off the shrimp with my fingers when they're mixed into a pasta dish! The Owners were nice enough to respond to my previous review, and they indicated "...Our team will work diligently to ensure that future servings of Jambalaya are served without shrimp tails, allowing for a more enjoyable dining experience.". So,......today I ordered the Jambalaya for lunch and guess what? TAILS ON THE SHRIMP! I don't need my food to be semi-anatomically correct. Pretty please, with sugar on top, take the tails off the shrimp if they're mixed into a dish! Skewers?...of course leave the tails on. Shrimp Cocktail?...what else are you going to hang on to but the tail when dipping into the cocktail sauce. They don't belong in Jambalaya!

This was a delicacy for my nose and tongue. I went in on a lunch break from work to grab something different. Food was absolutely out of this world fantastic. The atmosphere was a little busy at that time which is understandable however.. The confusion of people as they came in not knowing what to do or where to go was rough. Being new I was approached and asked if I knew what to do. A woman briefly tried to explain however it didn't shed too much light to be honest. She seemed too busy to really care... I stood around for a bit confused and tried to make my selections properly but with many areas to order from creates a bit of chaos. I will visit and recommend again however next time I'm sure to take my time and dine in. Or order out but will not recommend pickup option unless you're familiar with how this place works.

Cravings is a fantastic place to take your family and Friends. A great place for Breakfast Lunch or Dinner. Such a variety of different cuisines, something for everyone! My kids love it. they have a kids (under 6) Eat Free deal!. For those who haven't been, this is how it works: You get a card and simply walk up to one of the food stations and order your meal from the chef (No more splitting bills! ). Once your food is ready the servers bring it to you. They have 2-3 different soups every day. I loved the Five peppercorn crusted striploin Steak and the lamb rack. For breakfast, do yourself a favor and order "The Big Breakfast" they serve Rosso Coffee. The pizza is also great and I can go on and on. I had the Grilled steak kabobs today with Truffle Parmesan & Thyme Fries (I would never order regular fries after trying the Truffle ones) Great value and you'll never leave hungry. I eat here 8-10 times a month and I have never been disappointed.

I just wanted to provide some feedback from the Steak 101 that we attended on Thursday June 29 Unfortunately we were quite disappointed for many reasons: We waited over 20 minutes to order a beverage after we sat down as there was only 1 waitress for far too many customers We waited another 15 minutes for our glass of wine and our beer to arrive – only 1 bar tender We had to wait for the food on the buffet to be replenished the tomatoes in the salad were flavorless A few cuts of our steak were overcooked Then – to top it all off – there was no toilet paper in the ladies washroom To spend almost $200 on this event and to not have enough staff to support was very disappointing. This was purchased as a birthday present for my new husband and I felt badly that it was not as enjoyable and special as we had hoped.

Booking a table was very easy. Got there and was quickly given a table. Ordered our food which was the Loster Squid Ravioli & kids pizza. The wait was quite long (over 30 mins) but to be fair, it looked like a busy night and the server was kind enough to offer a fruit bowl to munch on which we didn’t pay for. The food was really good, the squid was really cooked and tasted great although I felt the dish could have used a more generous amount of shrimp which they used but guess times are hard. I thought we would not be able to finish it given the quantity but surprisingly we did. Also bonus points for kid eat free days (mon - thurs) although it doesn’t cover drinks for the kids which I think it should. Anyway, overall good experience and I would definitely come back given the opportunity to try out the other menus especially the hot chocolates & sangrias.

Hidden in the middle of a commercial/industrial area is the Cravings Market Restaurant. My GPS showed me where it was, I arrived without noticing it. Once you were inside, the atmosphere was both warm and welcoming. I was there at 12pm, I had the choice of a breakfast or lunch menu. The lunch menus included steak, burger, sandwiches, pasta, pizza and Asian curry. In other words, the restaurant woulf fit different tastes in a group of people. You would need to walk to different counter to place order for your food with the card they gave you, once ordered the food would be brought to your table. The good thing is no bill splitting, and it is readily combined if needed. The whole setup could be described as a glorified food court, but I liked it. Food did not disappoint and the presentation was excellent. I will definitely return with my family.

My two friends and I went for an early lunch today. We brought our 3 boys, 2 toddlers and a baby. The staff were so kind and helpful. The menu is so diverse and it has something for everyone. I ordered the 8oz striploin with broccolini. It was absolutely delicious. The market style ordering was really fun. The space is beautiful and clean, definitely a great place if you need to accommodate a group. There is plenty of parking (at 10:30 in the morning anyway). My meal, plus dessert, plus 20% tip, no drink, came to just over $40. I’ll be looking for more reasons to go back for sure!

We regret choosing this restaurant for our family Thanksgiving dinner. It was disappointing AND embarrassing. The turkey itself was processed and the rest of the items tasted bland at best. Also, the coffee was cold. Although our server was friendly and attentive, the other staff that assisted her appeared annoyed i.e. miserable about something. Another black haired woman actually hollered an indecipherable question at us from behind the counter. I responded by asking her to come over to our table rather than rudely yelling at us. She never did. I guess it wasn't that important. Was this staff member ever trained in customer service for work in the hospitality industry ?? I do not recommend this restaurant for casual, fine dining or otherwise.

I love this market! You get seated at a table and if you haven’t been before the server will explain the process. There’s 4? Different areas where you can order food from, you are given a card that you give to the booth you order from and they will add your order to a card. The server then brings the food to you. I liked the variety of food there, price points range from $15 & up. I got a soup and sandwich. If I recall it was the Thai curry soup? It was actually kind of bland and had an overload of onions in it. The panini was okay… not to impressed unfortunately. It was on the cheaper side so maybe that was my bad? Anyways, the sangrias are amazingly portioned and are DELICIOUS. I hope to return and try something else. Was really sad to see the lobster rolls gone fyi.

It was overall a good experience with the family. Truly a great service. I ordered the lobster roll and I thought it was too salty. I’m guessing because of the salt in the “lobster mixture” added to the salt on the butter. The salad dressing in the side salad was also salty. There was no sweets to the lobster. Therefore, not the best choice considering the price. I knew was taking a risk considering how far we are from ocean. This is my 2nd Experience here. I will be back. Experience 1 (5 Stars one year ago 2021) This was a really pleasant experience. A great place to meet for business or with friends. The service was exceptional. And the food impeccable. Lots of parking spaces and well located in Calgary. I look forward to next time.

Our overall experience wasn't terrible, but not good either. None of the staff appeared to enjoy their jobs as not a single one of them appeared happy to be there. When we were inquiring what was in the chutney, the chef made it sound like it was an inconvenience to explain it. The bison burger was very plain and almost had no taste. The chicken wrap was OK, but we've had better elsewhere. The onion rings were actually very good, perfectly cooked, and the right amount of breading and crisp! For the $70 we spent on 2 pop and main course, we expected the food to be of better quality!

We had just arrived in Calgary from the US, so this was our first meal in the city. We absolutely loved the atmosphere and the food. We sat outside and were told to order drinks with the waitress so I ordered an iced coffee which came immediately. All good is to be ordered inside at whatever stall/window you like via a food card you are given. Then the food will be delivered to your table. We split a pizza and some wings, and it was delicious. The combination of flavors on the pizza was perfect, and the wings were crispy and delicious. We loved our experience here and would recommend to others for quality food & a great atmosphere!

I visited Cravings for the first time last week for breakfast and the food, location and service we're amazing. I went again this week for an evening meal and was not disappointed. The service and the staff are exceptional. The food was delicious and arrived hit and very well presented. I would recommend booking a table in advance although there plenty of walk-ups. The restaurant is very European styled with large windows and just the right amount of lighting to create the perfect ambiance. It is extremely clean and the tables are spaced very well apart, essential in these times of Covid. They have a good selection of food with special offers during the week and a good selection of drinks for all occasions.

Great friendly service and lovely sunny ambiance. This was our first visit so we had no idea what to expect. Started off with the white peach sangria that was way too much for me to drink in my Kenny. Delicious and refreshing but quite strong. For brunch we ordered the West Coast Benny. When it arrived I thought it looked a bit small. They forego the English muffin and out it in a bed of rosti (shredded potato). It was plenty of food and I could barely make it to my fruit. Nicely done poached eggs, great hollandaise and the potato with it is much better than a crusty English muffin. We are definitely going back to try more from the menu.

Visited for lunch, to have the special Pizza Fest creation "quack and berries" - It was so delicious! Also had a couple appetizers which were wonderful as well. Beautiful natural light and nice table space. Good things to know: kids eat free Mon-Thur, they have sandwiches and salads to go at the front as well as a Cafe with delicious looking pastries. They have special meals for the holidays as well, for dine in or take out, the Thanksgiving one sounds delicious. Try it and enjoy!

Today was the first time I was at Cravings. It’s a really nice place, with an interesting concept. The Butternut Squash Bruschetta was delicious. I can’t say the same about the Peanut Pho Stir Fry. The peanut sauce was tasty, but EVERYTHING was FLOATING in it; the veggies were not crisp, it was difficult to even find the shrimp and the chicken pieces. They were submerged in the sauce. It was a soup NOT a stir fry. I was disappointed and I will never have that dish again.

Very good food. We ordered the cauliflower bites to start. They were delicious, the sauce they came with was very good as well. My girlfriend ordered the cilantro lime chicken and she said it was really good. Like amazing. She really enjoyed it with the mini potatoes and vegetables. It went together very well. I ordered the almond crusted salmon and I was pleasantly surprised. The salmon was cooked very well and the vegetables it came with were tasty. Service was amazing, food came extremely quick. We’d highly recommend it to anyone in the area looking for a nice date spot or even just a nice meal.

I love this place! Seems expensive but the portions are so generous . Always need a take out box. Had the jambalaya. Lots of chorizo and 3 shrimp. Could do without the garlic bread. Tiny piece with lots of cheese and a tad too much garlic. Deducted a star for smaller dessert portions which went up significantly in price. Love the open air atmosphere. Hasn't been busy the last 2 times I've visited. Parking isn't bad. Nice place for something different. Will be back!

Neat dining experience, order directly from different themed cooking stations and they bring it to your table. Lots of options for everyone and the food was very good, the panini could have been grilled longer to ensure the inside was warm. The pecan tart was very good and no to sweet, I liked that they offer sugar free caramel as a flavor option for lattes and we did not feel rushed to leave at all and enjoyed our brunch/lunch.

I have been here a few times before and the food was always quite good. This time however I had the moules frites and the mussels were tiny in many cases almost non existent. If you cannot get decent mussels don't put them on the menu. The picture I included was of the largest mussel I could find the rest were much smaller. The "soup was good and that is why I gave it 2 stars otherwise it would have been 1.

Great prices, fun greenhouse vibe (despite being in a strange area) and an interesting style of service. Despite going when it was relatively dead in the morning, didn’t receive much attention from staff (for example, the waitress said she’d take drink orders at the table and didn’t). But since it’s market style and you can order drinks at the counter it wasn’t a big deal at all. Great prices, especially on meat. Endless selection of food, you really can eat whatever you’re Craving.

Food was amazing! Our server was awkward and my grandma's food took much longer than mine to come even though she ordered right after me, but the place was really busy and our server might have just been new or overwhelmed. The decor is really cute, the market style ordering is unique and the food is vibrant and fresh. We both saw quite a few other things on the menu and going to other customers that looked yummy and we want to try, we will be back!

We had a Braised short rib sandwich (beef was so tender and flavourful and had an amazing amount of it!) with the best Onion Rings & a Ginger Beef Stirfry with great fresh veggies and again a very decent portion of beef that was delicious! We couldn’t eat it all (we really aren’t big portion eaters) so we took home some pecan pie that we have had before and it’s to die for!!! Highly recommend this restaurant…they have expanded their patio so it’s a perfect place to be this summer❤️

My first time to visit Cravings, had a family gathering/ Thanksgiving celebration. The atmosphere and especially the food was excellent. It's affordable and shareable servings. And the large selections of desserts WOW! We will comeback here for sure.

Really disappointing! The concept is really neat and the restaurant is very cute but the food was overpriced, slow and mediocre. All the staff were very rude and made us wait forever to be seated and pay our bill. Every staff member had a pretentious attitude and seemed like they were upset we were there. I ordered the margarita pizza and it didn't even come with Basil, so sad. I won't be coming back here.

Conflicted between giving 3 or 4 stars. Probably a 3.5. I'm not a huge fan of the concept, would prefer to have menus rather than going up to order. Service was not very good, our server only came by once, before we got our food. It wasn't very busy but he was busy talking to one of the other staff members. Definitely seems over priced for what it is.

We went for a late lunch. Greeted as we entered and seated right away. Staff were friendly and attentive. Food was prepared fresh as we ordered it. It was hot and tasted delicious. I had the beef and cheddar panini with ham and potato soup. Restaurant was open, bright and a comfortable atmosphere.

Butternut Squash Soup

Honestly in our experience food and service is hit or miss. If you stick to what you know you like you’re probably ok, today I branched out and ordered the butternut squash soup as it’s a favourite, but it was watery and pretty tasteless. My colleagues who are pretty chill typically had issues with their food/service. Used to be a favoured work lunch venue, but today was a real disappointment

My first time going here. Was in line with my team, they were all served at the salad bar, then another customer came up by the salad bar, he got served and the server completely bypassed me. Didn't end up getting any lunch, as I didn't have time to wait. Table service for drinks was also non existent. First and last time here, i won't be going back!

Thank you for a wonderful 90th birthday celebration! Everybody at our table of 14 loved their meal and were impressed with the helpful, friendly staff. The many menu choices allowed everybody to order their favourite. The staff were extremely accommodating of each one in our large group - ages 2 to 90. They went out of their way to make it a fantastic evening!

The wait for our meal was short. The staff were friendly. The buffalo burger was great my husband said and the fries were a good quantity and freshly prepared. I had the braised short rib sandwich with yam fries. It was so tender the meat and flavorful. The best hot sandwich I have ever had! The melted swiss cheese was a great touch with the sautéed wild mushrooms. Best yam fries I've had in Calgary!

Found a recommendation in the community we live in to try this place out. We were pleasantly surprised at how good our whole experience was. The card system is awesome. You can chat and go order what food you want in your own time- so you never feel like the waitress is constantly asking for your order or to square up your bill. The food was fast and absolutely delicious! We went at lunch and loved the atmosphere. I can’t wait to go again!

ALWAYS an amazing experience! I love the system that YOU get to wander the restaurant as you take your time to decide what food you want. The managers, Tracy & Janet, as well as the servers, Ana Lucia & Yael, were very welcoming, polite, and friendly. The chefs prepared DELICIOUS food!! I can't wait for my next visit AND to have their sister company - Great Events Catering - for my sister's baby shower in July! Keep up the GREAT work!

Everyone enjoyed their meal. The food is fresh, the portions are generous and well presented. Spacious, bright and airy, it was a comfortable place to sit. The waiter missed an order and didn't come back with coffee, but otherwise the food came without us having to wait long. A pleasant experience,

Had a great evening here! The food was delicious, affordable and had large portion sizes! Everything was elegant & tasted amazing, the service was awesome (thank you Ricky! I hope I spelled your name right!) and the food was served very quickly. I particularly enjoyed the butternut squash soup, and the desserts! The entire building was exceptionally clean and they followed protocols for Covid-19, which was greatly appreciated!

Food was delicious, I especially loved the Ceasars Salad! When I got my steak I was really enjoying it until I saw a fly. I waited for service and she discounted the meal slightly, didn't take the fly steak away. Had the outcome been better with the fly the rating woulda been better :(

The place is really nice, very friendly staff. They also remade our order to fit our dietary preferences. The pasta we had was really spicy but had a nice flavour. Would really recommend the calamari, it tasted fresh and really enjoyed the sauce that comes with it. Very pleasant experience!!

Calamari

Visited for YYC hot chocolate fest. This lovely little market restaurant is delicious and make unique, beautiful plates of food and dessert. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a treat or to enjoy a cozy place in winter. Highly recommended! If you go for the YYC Hot Chocolate, have it as a dessert. It is too sweet just to drink and could have benefited from some steamed milk to add after mixing.

Lovely staff who were kind and caring in the experience. The food was good, accompanied by a really cute space. You're given a card that you can use while you walk around and check things out, swipe and order, and they'll bring the food to your table. Cool concept and something I'll look forward to bringing some friends to.

Excellent tasting food. Cafeteria style atmosphere. Loud with lots of people in the restaurant. Would be far better with booths and dividers of some kind to cut down the sound. Anyways, because of the noise, we will not be back. It's too bad. Too many other options.

Food is good. 5 stars for food! Service is average. Shocked when I saw tip options starting at 18%.......... Tipping culture allows companies to pay low wages to their employees. More tip you ask for means lower wage you are paying to employees. That makes me reconsider if I want to go back or not...

You're going to find it odd but there's something special about this place. They give you a card, like a credit card, then you go around to each different station and shop for your meal. Once the meal is ready they bring it to you. Food and service have always been great. Lots of parking.

This restaurant was unique. They have a different ordering style where you go to stations to pick your meal. I was impressed with the options. You used a card to order meals and payed for what you ordered on that card. It was super easy with a group to split charges or combine meals.

Excellent food and service! We had the beef dip and the steak sandwich. Both were cooked perfectly and tasted the great. The stag was warm and inviting. They offered just the right amount of service without being overbearing; plates were cleared fast and waters were topped up quickly. We will be back to try other items!

Indoor and outdoor venue with a splendid amount of different food on display for your choice. Live music on the weekend which is always a joy to listen to with your food. The staff are on point and are always making sure they can add to your cravings experience. Be sure to check it with the family not to be missed.

Beautiful ambience and great service. But the food was alright. I ordered a steak and it was very chewy and a bit dry. I also tried the ravioli, and it wasn't very satisfactory. I will come back to try other dishes just because I love the decor and the drinks.

Alright. Portions for an eggs Benedict felt a bit small compared to other places. The tiramisu cake was frozen. Felt a bit pricey for what it’s worth. Lots of selection on the menu. The setting itself was very aesthetically pleasing.

I love the setup having many food choices and bar. Ordered a pizza and a bison burger. Both were delicious and very tasty. A little awkward location wise but had a wonderful time. For parking, I recommend going around the back so that you can park on the south side of the building to be closer to the entrance.

Went there for brunch on Father's day. Ordered the pear and arugula pizza, it was creamy and delicious. It can get noisy there sometimes but a really beautiful place to eat.

The food was bland, I’d give this place a 0 star rating if I could. There was a bug in our salad and when I asked them to it off the bill they just brought us a new salad and kept it on the bill. Very disappointing idk why they have the rating they do. Staff wasn’t friendly either the vibe was not it.

Ate there for Thanksgiving. Processed turkey and cold, old coffee. The servers acted like they were doing us a favor waiting our table. At least it was expensive!

A great upscale "Food Court" concept. Love to bring out-of-town guests or picky eaters here, so they can chose what they want with little fuss. Had the sampler salad (salad trio) for lunch today. Fresh food, friendly staff, clean bright atmosphere.

I visited here for breakfast with my friend. Even though our food has not been prepared for more than 30 minutes after the server took the order, we could wait leisurely because it was Saturday morning. But the food we received was not good

Quite a unique dining experience! There’s multiple restaurants here each offering a variety of cuisines but they share the seating space. Ideal if you’re not set on what cuisine you want or if you’re trying to play it safe with a guest and

Food is fantastic and Cravings has a selection for every appetite. I was with a group of 3 people and was the last to order out of that group. The staff member taking my order was short to myself and the other people with me. Unfortunately

This place is definitely a hidden gem. Although I had to go quite out of the way to find this place, the food didn’t disappoint at all. Lots of incredible choices on the menu and all the dishes we ordered didn’t disappoint in the slightest.

Went here for lunch with my wife and best lady friend the other day. We went later in the afternoon and the lunch rush was over. We had the place to ourselves. The location is very nice, open and clean. Lots of room to have a conversation

To spicy and to expensif for you got ,to finish with i pay things then i dont order i had spaghetti boulanese and i added shrimp $5.95 for 3- the sauce was so spicy i had à beer 9.50 when i paid the lady accidently put the whole table

We went here one day, for coffee and dessert.The large lattès were huge and hot, soooo much coffee. We shared a flourless chocolate torte. Neither of us had breakfast before arriving. Both of us swore we weren't eating lunch until

Disgusting!! Found this at the bottom of my Calamari when distributing them before we ate. Would never recommend.

Good food with nice pricing, the thing i don’t like is i already reserve a table yet we still waited to be seated. I understand its busy but what does the semse of doing reservation of you still have to wait.

Fabulous brunch! Don't miss out on this gem - location is a bit off the beaten path but food is gourmet and well priced. Duck confit eggs Benny? What?!!! Can't wait to go back. My new favourite brunch spot.

Found this place by randomly driving by and very glad we did. The food was presented beautifully and tasted amazing. Also, friendly and quick service. Would definitely recommend.
