Im pretty sure Earls will always be one of my favorites. I love the fact that they will prepare you anything u want from old menus if they have ingredients. The staff are all super nice and easy to look at :) Awesome pizza too. I also like Earls cause they have always been consistent in the service and food they put on the table. Good job guys.

The patio at this Earls in particular is wonderful!! Nice private cabana style arrangements. It gets packed in the evening too so it's best to have a reservation if it's a sunny day and you want to sit outside.
Some of the drink specials can be good, there's cheap bellini day (and their bellini's are delicious) and one day where their house beer is cheaper too.
However for what it is I find it a little over priced for some items. The burgers are good, you get a HUGE burger of good quality for a reasonable price. However the really gyp you on the salads.
I had a beat and pear salad that was the smallest salad I have EVER seen. It was two or 3 bites at best. This is fine dining stuff, isn't it? To put so little on your plate and charge you an arm and a leg for it? I used to go to Earl's quite often but after this I was pretty put off and haven't been back since.
Service isn't great. Never is. Although this Earl's is MILES better than the one on 4th. However we did have one incident with a horrible waiter. He obviously thought he was handsome and his pathetic flirting must have worked occasionally but it was really awkward and uncomfortable. We just wanted a nice quiet dinner and drink after a long day of work and he kept asking things like "so where's the party tonight ladies??" even worse was when he asked how our food was and we hadn't been given any food yet. We looked blankly at the empty table and all he said was "Oh I thought you were eating because I saw your heads moving" .... that would have been us talking, pal.
I will go back eventually haha but I'm only because it's right by my work. -

Some great variety of food available here, reflecting the diverse populace of Calgary. Reminds me slightly of places such as Chili's or Friday's, but with better quality food, service, and much more variety. I had the privilege of being treated to lunch last Sunday here by my hosts while visiting town. My friend's grandfather had the fish and chips, and my friend picked a noodle bowl along with a line-up of some rather nice sushi, some sort of roll with a great spice and crunch (of which I don't remember the name of, sadly). My dish was the planked salmon, with a beautiful green curry sauce and served over roasted root veggies. Good moistness, not dry, and with plenty of flavor in the curry that didn't overpower the veggies or fish. Definitely not only a place to get a good lunch, but somewhere to talk over food, take time, relax. Like a neighborhood joint, but only better. I was also told by my friend that some of the locations of Earl's are privately owned (perhaps this one is one of those?). At any rate, because of the limited locations in the U.S. and this location being close to where a dear friend happens to live, I hope that a visit with that friend may bring us to Earl's for another nice time.
