| - This is for the 1800 4 st SW location, since I cant find it on Yelp, and will apply to them all, as it's another 'branch' of the same restaurant.
Okay, just googled it. The one on the address above has gone out of business this month, or, at very least, have left the building (rented out by Strategic Corp)
Frankly, this chain was never even in the running, as was knocked out of contention by Calgary's odd restaurant habit of ambitious pricing. I'm only getting around to reviewing the above location now, but around $80 for a 2 course steak meal!? Come on!
Even on Fridays and Saturdays, the place was never busy, and had odd opening times, one couldnt even tell WHEN they were open looking from the outside!
You remember the building right? The location appears to be cursed. The old 'BLVD' bar? The 'BLVD' bar that was promptly shut down for reasons you can google for yourself. Then, 'Tilted Grill' - (see my other review) that came and went rapidly. Now LeVilla has the same fate.
It's ambitious pricing certainly killed the 1800 4 st location, helping it along?Maybe also the poor location, possibly sky high rent from Strategic (the landlord), the collapse of the tar sands or a combination of all, I'm looking forward to a business opening in that location that I can actually go into without having to take out a loan.
