Review from Angelo T.

I like V lounge, it's a small space that quickly draws in a large crowd throughout the night. Their bar area is convinient to fueling up on and jumping back onto the dance floor. Depending on whose spinning, the crowd can be largely...multicultural, meaning you best believe theres going to be some Filipinos up in this place! Yes, we gyrate our hips and put on our sour crooning faces when you put on some old school R&B.
I laid down my card to start a tab for my friend who came from T.O. and I'll tell you, keep count on those shots of Patron that you give away, you'll rack up your charges in no time. But it's all good, V- lounge is the place to celebrate when you want to reunite with childhood friends :) -

Service is very friendly. I asked for a Bellini and the waitress said they don't make them at V Bar, but that she'd get it at Earl's next door for me. It was awesome. I would definitely come back the next time I'm in Calgary.

This is a great venue if you're into hearing classic banging hip hop joints on the weekend. The lounge isn't too big at all but the perfect size to be hanging out with friends on a weekend, sipping in drinks and enjoying all the good looking people who seem to be working there. It does get very busy so sometimes it's a bit hectic to get drinks but I fi d that happens at any bar/club/lounge. Vbar as I call it is an excellent pre-destination before heading off to somewhere else as well. Again though, the hip hop here is bangin and that's reason enough to go.

What a great venue! The last time I was in this lounge, it was called Fuel.
I found myself in the V bar tonight after work for a friend's birthday and it was a fantastic time.
Our waitress was extremely funny and charismatic, and she was a big part of our experience. She was not only extremely competetent, but friendly and witty.
I am watching my "intake", so i simply had a Field Salad, with cajun chicken on it. The chicken was perfectly cooked and seasoned and the salad was.... good. Actually it was delcious, but let's just say it was a necessary evil. I would have much preferred the visually appealing dishes around me of some of my friends. I watched with envy, my friend Mandy eat a fragrant delcious creamy curry soup. When I couldn't take it any longer, I saw Kendra enjoying a chili chicken appetizer that also looked delightful. However, I shouldn't feel too sorry for myself. My salad was made with mixed greens, and had nuts, dried cranberries and a little bit of feta cheese on it. If you have to have a healthy salad, this was the way to go.
The ambiance is very laid back and I was happy with the lighting. The lights were down enough that we could chill out after a hard day of work. However, it wasn't so dark that we couldn't see what we were eating. Some lounges take the lights down too much, but not V! I was still able to check out my food.
All in all, I wouldn't hesitate to arrange for a group to go here again. This is a fantastic venue.Listed in: My Fave Salad Places
