    Cocktails were amazing. Server and kitchen staff went out of their way to ensure we received the meal we wanted. Would love if they brought back the duck fat poutine!

    One of my best culinary experiences so far. The proposed menu is rich and adds a subtle melange of cuisine from Alberta with some notes from European (notably Italian) cuisine. The service was so benevolent and provided nice recommendations. Would definitely recommend to anyone in Calgary.

    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!

    We absolutely adore Connie Desousa and all of her concepts. The server we had was wonderful, he was attentive without checking on us too often it was just the perfect amount. We had a blue cheese and truffle honey to start which was so delicious. That said, we ordered a steak and found it full of gristle and chewy. It was not even all that flavourful which was disappointing and the potatoes with it were just ok. When you come to Charcot you are looking for a tasty meat filled experience, and we just didn’t get that this time.

    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.
