I can't believe how badly this restaurant dropped the ball, it's as if they have completely given up on providing exceptional customer service, and expertly prepared food... Yikes... when there are so many fabulous restaurants popping up every day in Calgary, it wouldn't surprise me if they closed their doors tomorrow..
We were at the Vintage Chophouse to celebrate a 50th Birthday, there were 16 in our group, and 15 of us ordered their steak expecting to have an amazing food experience. Based on the price, a person would expect exceptional service, which was not the case... Our waiter seemed to take drink orders 2 at a time. We waited an hour and a half for our meal... our apetizer was a lightly flavoured water disguised as French onion soup. When asked how much longer the meal was going to take an hour and a half in...our waiter "Justin" made no opoligies and said that our timing was bad and the kitchen was slammed and our main course will more than likely arrive later rather than sooner..
Alas our meal arrives and wouldn't ya know it there wasn't a steak in the room that was remotely warm!! Yup 27 bucks for a cold steak placed in the middle on a nice white plate... The only food that was hot was the scalloped potatoes which were very yummy. So if you are in the mood for some great scalloped potatoes go to Vintage, but if your in the mood for an expertly prepared steak leave it to the experts at Ruth Chris, or Char Cut. We left the restaurant feeling completely violated having to pay for such all around bad experience....I vowed to spread the word.
