| - This is seriously my favorite place to go and dance. I have gone here both as a club and restaurant.
As a restaurant, its really just the menus from The District which is right beside the Rhino. The food was okay, just a little too fancy for me, I'm a pretty simple kind of girl, but if you like fancy sauces on your food, you'll really enjoyed it. We were out for a birthday so werent in any rush so for time wise, I cant really judge. they food got to me fast enough that I didn't feel like I wanted to complain. Since I was there when it was a restaurant I didn't have to pay any cover to get in, so if you plan on come here for the nightlife, you should consider having dinner first, then there is no line or cover.
As a club, this is defiantly my first choice of all the venues in Calgary. The cover is only $5 (even during Stampede) and if your there before 11, there is never a line. Even when there is a line, its never long and doesn't take too long to get through. It can get pretty busy there, but they do have 2 floors (best idea ever) that play 2 different styles of music. Upstairs is always mainstream with a mix of old school hip hop and dance jams. Downstairs is always electro/dubstep mixes, (for those who were fans of The Warehouse, this is a good replacement) drinks are crazy overprices ($5.75 for a highball) and never feel watered down. The staff is always nice when I go there, bouncers, waitresses, bus boys, all of them. The girls never seem to snooty or overly done up like at other clubs.
I always recommend the Rhino as a venue for people to have a good time, as I always do.
