We like this Milestones for the most part as we do not have to sit in the inner Mall style one like at Market Mall and we can avoid the bustle and shorter menu of the downtown location where they do strive to get you in and out to turn the tables over more quickly. Service was OK on this date - the server was absent for a good 10-15 min when we first were seated and he apologized and admitted he had been eating his lunch. We believed him as he was still chomping his last bite when he got to our table. He was friendly though. A bit forgetful and of course curt once our bill was paid but whatever.
For a chain, the food is not too bad. The portobello chicken with pasta was recommended to me by our server so I went with this. It was a 6 out of 10 at best - it was just OK. Nothing I couldn't have made myself at home in 20 min and the bland pasta was borderline overcooked. The plate needed a tiny hint of sweet somewhere (maybe a little honey glaze on the carrots?) It was extremely earthy but not a bad lunch. I ended up taking half of it home. The chicken was cooked well, not a lot of mushroom though. $20 plate.
Hubby's burger - he gave it an 8 out of 10 - cannot go too wrong with a burger, right? He subbed the fries for yam frites and they came out the way he liked them, thin and crispy. $14 plate.
We skipped dessert and the bill was thankfully cut a little in our favor as we had a gift card.
Will be a while before we go back as there are just so many other restaurant choices in Calgary.
