Had never heard of this place, but was intrigued by the appearance looking through the windows from the street. I have lived in Calgary most of my life and am always surprised to find hidden gems for dining and drinks. I guess this isn't really hidden, but I suppose the semi-terror of driving down 17th Ave commands attention away from looking at shop fronts! On-foot exploration is far safer!
Our group of four was seated quickly and drinks were ordered and delivered. The atmosphere was bright and lively. Other guests clearly enjoying themselves if the level of chatter is an indicator of quality. Server was sharp and answered our menu questions. I settled on a burger and my other half had the bison Wellington. Our compatriots ordered similar burger and a spinich salad. When the meals arrived, wow! No ordinary burger and the Wellington....all I can say is I misordered! Tastes were fantastic!
As meal ended, we were well full and passed on desserts. Which, I suspect were exquisite! Definitely worth a visit!
