GRINGO STREET

Loved it! The cocktails and tacos were amazing! Great service!

Great place! The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed. The food was very tasty for a great value. Drinks were amazing! Hats off to the bartender 😋

It took over 30 min to get a drink from time we ordered.

Great tacos , service was perfect . I would hang out here again 100%

They got rid of their happy hours for tacos! Boo but that’s ok all other taco places have happy hour. Service was just ok, drinks were ok but again the prices went up!!! Just over all not worth the money. At all. And not eager at all to accommodate allergies and preferences

We reserved a table but we were sat at the bar which we normally don’t mind. However the bartender came off as incredibly rude and obnoxious and was complaining about his staff the entire time which we found so unprofessional. Just not a great vibe when the entire staff is standing around the bar complaining about being there and complaining about the restaurant they’re working at. If you serve average food, you better hope you make up for it with amazing service. They did not. We won’t be going back there again.

I have been to Gringo Street numerous times for the quality of their food. The food is always very good and that has definitely been the main reason for going back.
Unfortunately this time our food took an over an hour to make, the restaurant was very busy, but it was a Friday night and we had a reservation so there was nothing about this that was out of the normal. When our tacos finally arrived, out of 24 of them only 2 were warm, the rest were room temperature if not cold. The tacos were still tasty, but it all started to fall apart for the restaurant when we told them about the issue. The food is rather pricey for the quantities you get, for a place that charges around $12 for a 2oz cocktail as standard and about $4.5 per street taco, we were hoping the long wait for the tacos meant they would be hot.
Management came and spoke to our table and apologized for the issue, and since we had decided to eat the tacos anyways as to not waste food, we were hoping that the issue would've been resolved on the bill in some sort of way as to regain our trust in the integrity they have in the food that they make. The manager on duty said she would look into working something out for us, but after this we never saw her again. She told our server what her solutions was and it was to comp one desert for our table of six which would've included one of their two desert options being 2 churros or a nutella style taco.
NO further effort was made to clarify this or hear us out, and one desert for 6 people who spent over $300 dollars and have been back for multiple visits, was borderline insulting. It was just enough to recognize something should be done about lacklustre quality of the food, but fell completely flat in recognizing return customers as worth more than 1/3 of a churro.
This approach acts as if the customer is not trust worthy, nor worth having back, and unfortunately I can no longer recommend Gringo Street nor return as a customer myself.

Creative and delicious cocktail menu! The food has great flavors and presentation. Definitely recommend.

Found this place to be far too loud to enjoy a conversation. The service was friendly but scattered, forgetting drinks, long wait to get our order in, different people asking us the same things again. We made a reservation and had the worst table in the place which was disappointing. The food was very good though, and if you are looking for really loud and energetic place you might really like it. Otherwise, I recommend takeout!

Service was quite slow. New employee being trained, no issue as it takes time to learn, but it took almost 20 min from getting the drink to someone taking our food order.

The food took a long time to be served and some of the tacos were not hot when they finally did arrive. The server apologized for the long wait so was aware of that. The food still tasted excellent but the length of time waiting and the Luke warm tacos made for a below average experience.

Our server Beth was incredible. She made the experience. Good food, great cocktails! Yumm

Wasn’t as good as I remember. Service was a bit slow. Food was cold.

Gringo Street did it again. Great food experience and fun atmosphere and the perfect cocktails for the occasion. Our vegetarian loved the cauliflower and cheese tacos. I tried the trio of skewers. They were excellent. Chicken is the best with the middle eastern seasoning. Great sized portions. Peanut guacamole rocked as usual. My wife loves the Latin Kings drink. We are coming back again for sure.

Everything was great until we went to pay. We wanted to use a open table cheque and they refused to take it. Our waitress and the hostess were nice and tried to explain why but offered to get the manager. He came over and was very rude about the whole thing says it’s not legal tender and they have the right to refuse it and wouldn’t discuss it further. It felt like he was accusing us for trying to rip them off when we just wanted to use the $26 towards our meal since we don’t get out often in this economic climate.

This place has gone downhill fast. None of the servers we met were there for more than one month. Food was the worst we had there.

Sad as it use to be good .

Amazing food and drinks as always. Service a little slow. Tried to order food before happy hour ended and our server seemed to be dodging us a few times.... had to flag her down 4 minutes before happy hour ended. Felt compelled to order less because our server wouldn’t take food orders and drinks at the same time which seemed a little counterproductive. I totally understand it gets busy but there must be a way to streamline the process, considering most people who come in before 7 expect the happy hour pricing.

Really tasty food and cocktails with a great Happy Hour.

Gringo street has become my favorite restaurants to go for any occasion!! The food is incredible, the cocktails are fun and the servers take the best care of you! I haven’t had a negative experience yet!

Love the food and the price but generally not a comfortable place to eat. We made a table reservation on open table because we didnt want to sit at the bar but when I got there the guy said there weren't any tables available, despite my reservation. We sat at the bar by the kitchen and it was SO hot and SO loud and we kept getting hit by everyone passing by. Also one of the cooks was very unprofessional, he was loud and swearing and getting mad at other employees. Was not a pleasant dining experience and even though I enjoy the food, I probably won't go back.

Corn bread is world class best I've had. That jalapeno oil they use is stellar but be prepared for a little payback the next day.

Fish tacos decreased in quality

Unreal food - the mushroom fundido and guiness braised short rib tacos are at the top of my list and you can never go wrong with the classic margaritas.

Our servers were fantastic, every restaurant should be so lucky as to have staff like that. The food was great for the most part, flavours were amazing. The only issues were with the tortillas for the tacos, they were lousy and the veggie tacos were really bad. Fix that and it is 5 stars.

One of my new favorite places. I know that I will be going there again.

Love sitting up at the bar where we can watch the cooks prep out food.
Delicious Gin martinis !

Nice night, enjoyed the Blood orange margaritas! Great happy hour prices

Love the tacos!

We arrived for our reservation of 5 people and were greeted immediately by name by the manager, a nice touch. The server came to our table and got cocktails and wine service started while she explained the menu and dropped off a complimentary pork rind snack. Unknown to us, we had a guest with a few crazy allergies, not only were they very accommodating, the manager and chef actually edited a copy of the menu to illustrate what was available and safe to eat for our guest. Way beyond anything I have experienced in a restaurant and made the evening that much more enjoyable. Keep killing it and we will keep coming back!

Loved all the cocktails that we tried and the tacos were on point. Cheeseburger taco and crispy duck were to die for.

Amazing as always! Can’t wait to come back!!

Great food and Cocktails!
Service was a tad slow, very hard to hear but overall a great ambiance for an evening out.

There was a shellfish allergy in our party, the chef took a menu and marked it up for us to indicate what was safe! Great staff, amazing salsas and an all around great place

The fundido is a must try if you love cheese! Everything I have tried is amazing! I would not recommend this place if you are looking to have a deep conversation or a catch-up, it is very loud inside!

Good atmosphere

The service was very strange; our server pushed the "up sell" very overtly and it was off putting. The food did not come in the sequence we had specifically requested, and when the food did come it was not very tasty. The food was also very overpriced. I would not recommend this restaurant.

This place is always a go to when I want to try some fun drinks. Their tacos are amazing. Would recommend if you are wanting to try some fun combos.

Modern, yet so different. Menu and flavours are awesome! Cocktails are brilliant. Staff is exceptional. We brought a friend for the very first time and she has made it her new No 1 in Calgary.

Fantastic food and amazing service. Chef Robbie is the bomb!

Fantastic service and ambience! I love coming to Gringo St.
