This review pertains to their Sunday brunch. Great experience ! Host and our server were super friendly and welcoming. Love the old speakers and soda machines which adorn the walls but the whole place has a cool modern atmosphere mixed with nostalgic photos and vibes. I had the French toast and my mom had the eggs Benny both were great - Can’t beat 5$ mimosas (try the pineapple one). Will definitely add this to my list of go to places when I’m in Calgary - will return to try their evening menu and shot of the day they advertise ! Thank you!

Loved the Malibu salad, service was awesome! Outdoor patio could use more umbrellas on a sunny day. The only major issue I had was the music was WAY too loud. I found the quietest table, with the help of one of the servers and it was still so distracting and challenging to have a conversation. I even asked if it could be turned down but it wasn't. The management needs to keep in mind this is a restaurant not a club. And with a lot of professionals coming in for lunch who need to have important conversations. I was there to catch up with a friend from out of town and it was so hard to hear one another. Because of that I wouldn't be able to recommend the place to anyone who wanted to visit or have meaningful conversations.

We went for our daughter’s birthday and the staff was very welcoming, very accommodating and went above and beyond to make sure our night was great (which it was)! The food was also great and we all left very satisfied. Would definitely recommend this restaurant!

Had the Truffle Fries and Pork Belly Fettuccine, all very good. Great service, good size servings. Enjoyed the red house wine, even if it was a bit too chilled 🙂
