When we have a babysitter for the kids, heck, we've even brought our kids, this is where we go. I would say that Notable is the most outstanding restaurant in Calgary for many years now. Always make a reservation to not be disappointed, the menu is creative, the wood fired oven always smells amazing and the different cuts of meats mean that you can try something new and what you wouldn't normally cook at home.
We are a huge fan of charcuterie boards and try one whenever it shows up on a menu and by far Notable's is the best. Coupled with a killer wine selection, knowledgable servers, an open kitchen where you can watch all the action is why you will keep coming back. A real Calgary treasure.
Sure parking can be tricky but get over it and enjoy a walk in a neighbourhood that would not normally have a top restaurant, would you you rather have to drive to boring downtown???
