1. Thai Boat
If ever there's a quadrant in this city that's jam packed with awesome eats, it's the Northeast. And the Thai Boat is no exception.
My very first visit to the Thai Boat was an apres-work shindig with my coworkers. It was the first meeting of our…More »
2. Rasoi Kitchen
I was hunting for someplace a bit "different" to take a friend for a belated birthday supper. Natasha K's review of Rasoi convinced me that this place was worth a shot. Indian fusion sounded like it had just enough of a twist.
Monday night turned out…More »
3. Anju Restaurant & Lounge
There's a little place tucked away downtown, over on 10th St between 4th and 5th Ave. It's a little place you may not have been to yet and so they don't know your name... but it's the kind of place that you'll step foot into once. You'll love. And…More »

Anju is impressive with its sleek and simple interior, dark hardwood floors, and tables lit by oil… Read more »
4. Wild Rose Brewery
Wild Rose Brewery, how do I love thee? I'd try to the count the ways, but I'm afraid I won't ever be able to stop. From your tap room to your tours to your staff who are so obviously passionate about your product, if I'm not heading out there for a…More »

5. Surya Restaurant East Indian Cuisine
A thread on the Calgary conversation board entitled 'Secret Restaurants' put Indian food on my brain this morning as the post was asking people to share some of their favourite, but less known spots.
My contribution come rushing to the front of my…More »
6. Design District Urban Tavern
Another Yelp Eats night, another restaurant! Wednesday night found me at the District (admittedly, it was my second visit this week). In past visits, my food choices generally revolved around pub food and appys. District is a great place to hang out,…More »

7. Jacqueline Suzanne's Bistro & Antiquities
If you're looking for a really cute spot to go for lunch in Inglewood, hit up Jacqueline Suzanne's and remember to keep your pinky up.
The atmosphere is pretty old school. The material that made up the tableclothes matched the upholstery on the…More »
8. Home Tasting Room
Calgary, AB T2P 1B3

Categories:
Wine Bars,
Tapas Bars,
Canadian (New)
Since it opened, folks have been telling me to have my lunch over at the bar at Home Tasting Room. Yesterday I decided to take them up on their suggestion. As lovely an experience as it is at one of the tables, sitting at the countertop by the open…More »

9. Alloy
Don't blink or you might miss this place. Seriously, it's tucked away off of Macleod Trail, behind a hotel and in the middle of an industrial area. The inside does not match the outside. It's so much better :).
I was here for lunch, and what a treat.…More »
10. Tenshi Sushi
If there were a word like quaint, but that incorporated good food and nice decor with being small rather than just being cute with being small, that would be the word to use for Tenshi.
I was here with a group of 5 and we took up half the…More »
11. Boxwood Rotisserie Cafe
Boxwood gets its four stars from the fact that they source their ingredients locally, they've got an amazing location on the edge of Memorial Park, their staff is friendly and welcoming and they filter their own water.
I stopped in for lunch on a very…More »
12. Abruzzo Ristorante
On the corner of 8th St and 4th Ave stands a little white house with a sign out front that says "Abruzzo Ristorante." I've passed it many a time heading down to the river, but hadn't had occasion to stop in until recently.
The interior is small, right…More »
13. Blink Restaurant & Bar
Blink looks narrow and long from the outside. From the inside, though it is still much longer than it is wide, it's not as small as I initially thought.
Blink has impressed me from the get go. I made a reservation through Open Table. The day of, Blink…More »
14. Vin Room
I had THE BEST time at Vin Room yesterday. It was sooooo good, in fact, that I just had to upgrade my review from a 5 start to, well.. a 5 star. Have you read any reviews that wished they could give a biz 0 stars? The same feeling works in the…More »

15. The Living Room Restaurant
I have three words for you. Watermelon Caprese Salad. And two more. Cheese Fondue. Then one more. OMG.
I had only ever been to The Living Room before for cocktails and wine. This time, it was the latter, but also food. It was not a cheap evening, but…More »
16. Caesar's Steak House
Caesar's may be some 30 odd years old. It may also not have changed in those 30 years since it's been open. But if there's anything in Calgary you must experience at least once, it's a visit to Caesar's. That is, unless you're a vegetarian. Caesar's…More »
17. Ox & Angela
What was once the dark wooded Bungalow is now a bright and airy upscale half resto/half bar. I've heard good things about Ox & Angela to date and decided to take Don B to this new spot while he was up visiting from Portland.
The highlights:
The…More »
18. Rush Dining Room
Wow. Rush is swank! The service, the food, the decor... it's top-notch. The exterior of Rush is unassuming. The silver letters used against the white walls of the building are easy to miss if you're not looking for them. Guys, if you want to impress…More »
19. JAROblue - CLOSED
ZOMG! Yes, JAROblue deserves a ZOMG. It's a danger to subpar food places that its so close to me. I love that there's yet another spot in Calgary raisin' the bar on quality food, service and drink. Open but a mere 4 years, this hangout has my vote…More »
20. Cafe Koi
I visited Cafe Koi for the first time tonight. I've often passed it, but never had occasion to go in. The interior was dimly lit and simply decorated. I liked the ambiance.
The service was prompt and friendly, and the entire place was pretty low key…More »
