| - I was in town for business & came here as it was convenient for myself & an employee while visiting Chinook Centre. Nice modern decor, pretty typical for a chain-style restaurant. The restaurant itself was not busy during our particular visit, but service was sadly quite slow. We were not in a hurry, but had we been - well, it would have been an issue. Other than the slow service & disappearing act, the girl serving us was quite lovely.
We both ordered drinks prior to our food - about 10 minutes after ordering, I was alerted to the fact that a main ingredient for my cocktail was unavailable, so I needed to make a new choice. At this point we should have placed our order for food, as another 10 minutes or so passed before we received the drinks or saw our waitress again.
Once we finally got our food orders in the meals came fairly quick. The food itself was quite beautifully presented and tasted just fine. Nothing that I would be dying to come back for, as I'm sure there are many better choices for semi-fine dining in the Calgary area. I was hoping it would taste as beautiful as it looked.
Overall, I would suggest trying another option if looking for a more upscale dining choice. Otherwise, I hear there is a perfectly adequate food court that would save you time & money at Chinook.
