| - Vintage was one of those treat-yourself-because-you-deserve-it kind of places. On an trip to Calgary with friends on our way to Banff, we decided that we wanted to treat ourselves to Vintage and enjoy famous Alberta beef. With its swanky interior, we did feel a little out of place, but nonetheless, we were greeted and treated very well.
FOOD: Lobster Mac and Cheese. Rib Eye. Prime Rib. Roasted Mushrooms. Sauteed Asparagus. Now let us say this was definitely an extravagant meal on our part, but luckily with the strong USD, the meal turned out to be affordable on the pocket, and great on the taste! The chophouse cuts are spectacular. Cooked to perfection (that nice medium rare), it was tender, fresh, and just got that right texture to it. The sides that can come along with, our favorite was the roasted mushrooms. There is something in those mushrooms that are to die for. For the Mac and Cheese, although not the star of the meal, it was definitely worth getting that kind of side to further indulge all of those taste buds.
SERVICE: Oh that Canadian demeanor is always refreshing compared to our American curtness.
Vintage is one of those Canadian steak establishments that is worth every dollar.
