About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for business meals
  • Charming
Led by co-chefs and co-owners John Jackson and Connie DeSousa, CHARCUT Roast House is one of Canada’s most lauded restaurants.
The restaurant’s every detail – from the reclaimed local barn wood panelling to the mason jar chandeliers – transports the authenticity and soul of local, farm-fresh producers and their flavourful ingredients to downtown’s most energetic restaurant and bar.
With house butchered meats, homemade preserves, seasonal menus, thoughtfully created cocktails, local craft beers, and a bustling open kitchen, Jackson, DeSousa and CHARCUT are helping put Calgary on the world’s culinary map.

    Very friendly welcome, our waitress went above and beyond to get us everything we ordered and more. The dining was very comfortable and the food was out of this world. They were flexible on meal choices, without spice and truffle for example. The wine was excellent and the rose I choose was incredible. Would highly recommend for anyone visiting Calgary. It was the perfect end and last meal to our amazing Canada holiday!

    1. Difficult access and parking due to construction and clusters of drug addicts. 2. Poor selection when it comes to steak. To enjoy a ribeye, I would have had to get a 32 0z monster. Strip steaks were too thin and overcooked. Sides were tasty. 3. Loud, annoying electronic drum music pounding.

    A much needed break from the day! Jessie (Jesse?) and the bar is still fantastic from my last visits and recalled preferences. Had such a lovely evening to myself and a friend joined and had a great cocktail experience as well. Love what y’all are doing here, can’t wait to be back!

    Food was very tasty and good value as well. Service was excellent. Our young waiter, Phoenix, was knowledgeable, attentive and personable. He was kind and polite too. When we left, he hurried to hold the doors open for my mother in law.

    The food was good, however steak was very grisly/fatty. Great service. Tables are getting a bit worn.

    We had an amazing experience thanks to Jesse! From the moment we sat down, she was warm and attentive. It’s rare to find someone who elevates the entire dining experience like she did. We’ll definitely be back!
