Alforno

Great experience at Alforno. I ordered their pepperoni pizza (regular with honey drizzle) and my wife ordered the gluten free mushroom pizza. One of the best gluten-free crusts she’s ever had, she says. Service was friendly and prompt, and the patio is a really nice place to spend time.

Great food and service was great

Always good and welcoming. Thanks for the great service!

Restaurant was really busy, food is always good though. Recommend making a reservation weeks in advance.

It was my first time here. I was on a date. Overall, I loved the place and ambience was mesmerizing. Even the service was good. I just felt that the food quantity could have been a bit more. We had Prawn Mafaldini and it was really good. Just felt it could have been more.

Our server Tessa was exceptional

The food was amazing! My friend and I both ordered the short rib pasta and the manager came out and explained to us that there wasn't enough left for two orders (we were there late) so instead they added meatballs to the dish to make up for it? The pasta was incredible and I loved their flexibility! I will definitely be back!

Great place, great food. Service was perfect. Def go again

Love the food and ambiance; great service too! staff are friendly.

Waited 10 mins for someone to help us at the main counter

Alforno is one of our favourite places to go for a date! We love everything about this place.

This was our first time back with the new restrictions in place and it felt super close to the table next to us. The screens are obviously required right now but we could hear everything the couple next to us was saying. It also doesn’t leave too much space for the servers trying to serve the tables. This wasn’t our best experience here.

The food was so delicious! You can tell they use high quality ingredients. Their sausage and brocolini pizza was amazing! We were sad they ran out of meatballs though. Will be back again :)

Valentine’s dinner with my boyfriend, very nice! Food was excellent!

Alforno is our go to place, may it be just to have coffee and a dessert or for family dinner breakfast, lunch or dinner. We live in the NE but because Alforno is our favorite place especially our daughter - Ayeisha, we don't mind driving downtown. Thank you to Ava for making sure we get what we need, always checking on us. Cheers! Since my daughter posted about Alforno in her social media account like way back when she was in Grade 9, most of her friends started going there, and they love it as well. Cheers!

We were placed by the window, it was freezing and quite tight!! Had to eat with our jackets on. The food was ok but quite bland.

Enjoyed their daily specials. Good food and friendly service.

As always it was a lovely experience! The food was fabulous and the service was excellent. So nice to have the dining room open.

We love their pizza... The Fun Guy, filled with several kinds of mushrooms, is a favourite! Stay safe, we will be back after this lockdown. In the meantime, we will take out/

I absolutely love this spot! I usually come here for brunch, but decided to come for their Tuesday dinner and wine evening. Safe to say I was not disappointed. Everything was fresh, delicious, and extremely reasonable priced! Always my go to spot. Not to mention they have the absolute best baked good. Their bread is to die for. Feels like a piece of Europe in Calgary.

Good attention, great food , cozy atmosphere. A great place for a date or a family outing.

Great coffee!!! Awesome ambiance and space. Food was good, got the pizza, the dip and the meatball - a little pricey for what you get. Will try the pasta and one of the desserts next time and brunch. Would love to see more protein options. Will come again.

This is one of my favourite places in the city! The aesthetic and overall look and decor of the place is stunning, their drinks are so good as well as their food! The location is also a plus since it’s not right downtown and you walk from princes island ! Took my husband here for his birthday and he said he’d want to come back next year. Our server was also very lovely !

Great spot for a delicious breakfast or dinner! Check out their new menu - Highly recommended!

I love Alforno! ❤️
Had their very tasty mushroom pizza and a glass of their house white which is very good.
I try to come here once a week - it’s my fave spot in Calgary for breakfast, coffee, dessert, and dinner.

Their staff is always so nice too!!

Enjoyed our meal. The staff did a good job working with the covid restrictions to make it safe but as personable as possible.

Great place to catch dinner, food is very delicious and service was great. Would definitely return to order the carbonara again.

Fantastic restaurant with delicious food and great service!! Love this place for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or just an afternoon latte. ❤️

The food was delicious and our server was exceptionally friendly :)

This cafe is great for a bite to eat with friends as the food is awesome. The service was alright but it tended to be a little more on the loud side. There wasn’t any wifi which was frustrating for doing work. I would come here to dine but not as a casual cafe experience

We had an outstanding experience! The wine and pizza was great! Caio gave us an amazing service, as always! Thanks also to the waitress (I forgot to ask her name) who was very kind and friendly!

Very slow service. Took 15 minutes to get our wine because they couldn’t get the bottle open. Then took quite some time to place our order despite menus being put to the side. Food was good and came to the table in a reasonable time. overall below average experience and would not recommend

I made a reso but it was almost as though they didnt know. Extremely loud, cramped and slow service. I used to love this place.

I loved the Alforno salad but wasn't so freaked with the baked salmon. the service was really good

First time since the start of the pandemic I had the opportunity to come back to my favourite place. It did not disappoint!

Their salads wouldn't make me come back, but the pasta would

Food - especially the pizzas were delicious. We were on the patio which has the unusual benefit (in Calgary) of being on a quiet street. Great experience.

The cafe was very good and will definitely come back again.

The place is nice. Staff is friendly and care about the customers. Breakfast was delicious.

Great place to go! They have excellent customer service. I’d definitely go again.

I tried the yyc food and drink expo feature menu tonight. The salad and entree (pappardelle) were nice. The caramel cheese cake was very ordinary. Overall, a satisfying dinner.
