I must be super behind the times, because I've never been to either Double Zero location before. After my visit to the Chinook location, I'm a fan and I'm looking forward to checking out the downtown location - I'm told it's quite different!
Double Zero is down in the "new" (higher-end) section of Chinook Mall and is a bright and charming two level restaurant. My boyfriend and I dropped in, exhausted, at about 7:30 pm after searching for our Underwear Affair costumes... and we were out of there by about 8:10! Wow! How's that for speedy service?
We had a fairly private table on the second level, near the staircase, which suited us perfectly. I think if it were a nicer day or we were more energetic, it would have been nice to sit by the massive windows and watch the traffic on Macleod Trail but there was no way we would have appreciated it in our states that night. We had the Aracini as an appetizer and then shared the Sausage pizza - both are highly recommended.
Chinook is 5 minutes from my house and it is lovely to have more dining options there. I'll definitely add Double Zero into my rotation... I just may need to start wearing blinders when I walk past the Tory Burch next door so I don't go broke in the process!
