    Bridgette Bar is our absolute favourite Calgary date spot. Good and service is always suberb. We highly recommend the Garlic Bread, Truffle Rigatoni and the Duck. Can’t wait for our next date night there.

    Overall good but everything was on the salty side , specially fries. Beet salad was a bit bland and sauce to vegetables ratio were off. Trout, chicken and eggplant fries were really tasty. Octopus salad was really salty as well.

We had a fantastic time, … it was my husband’s birthday and we were able to get the bill/pay & head over to the flames game without being late! Thank you!!

    Excellent service and beautiful atmosphere! Our server was friendly and gave great advice on the menu items. The food we ended up ordering was good but not spectacular. I think we may have just picked some of the wrong items. We enjoyed the eggplant fries and the carrots. Overall it was a great experience and we will be returning.

    Had a great date night at Bridgette Bar in Calgary. We were seated quickly, our server was very knowledgeable and the mood in the room was amazing! Every section would have been a good seat. The food selection was perfect and we both found items we loved. The bar menu was perfect - lots of great local beer on tap without the crazy price gauge that sometimes comes from upscale restaurants. Will be back for sure!

    Burrata w honey - seemed like they forgot the honey; cauliflower tasted very fishy - we didn't eat much. Beet salad was very god. Endive salad not as good as it was w walnuts and blueberries. Eggplant fries - not sure if they forgot the salt or some herbs - it was good but not great. Mile hi banana cream pie saved the day as always! Love the sharing plates.

    Dinner was delicious but the service was nothing special. Considering we were a group of 8 with automatic 20% gratuity coming, I expected our server to be a little more attentive. I have had much better and attentive service with a smaller group and our added gratuity.

    Overall a great experience, cheese ball appy was just ok, ricotta cheese dumplings were delish, duck plate was very good. Disappointed that the duck and dumpling were served at separate times since they were both our main dishes. Service was good but a big slow, there were several large groups there, i felt they took priority over our table of 2. Oh well, still a great d ate night.

    Poor service - very slow Food was tasteless - Eggplant Fries were so bland and Garlic Toast was inedible. We were told halfway through our happy hour reservation that we only had the table for two hours. That should’ve been made clear to us as soon as we sat down or made very obvious when you make the reservation.
