Started with a ceviche which appreared in the form of two patties of minced redish fish (which I was told was made of a whitefish). It was adequately done but lacked the citrus zing I was expecting. The fish seemed fresh but we are landlocked after all in Calgary, so I can't fault them too much here. The spice tended to overshadow all the other flavours but overall it was okay. The little tortilla chips it was served with were obviously homemade but were both on the thick and hard side as well as perhaps slightly stale. It shouldn't be too hard to make fresh tortilla chips regularly through the day and I was here for a late lunch, so this was underwhelming to say the least.
the service was merely okay on the day I went -- only a few people there so I thought it could have been a bit better. The staff seemed intent on reading the paper.
overall the restaurant was alright. Not great but not the worst either. I went to S&P's other restaurant in Cochrane (now closed -- for good reason) and it was really pretty bad.
there aren't too many good choices for Mexican (tex-mex) here in Calgary -- if you have to have a fix, Salt and Pepper will do. But for the real deal go somewhere else.
