    We ordered the steak. It was very bad and hard to chew.

    Had a great meal prior to attending a play at the Arts Common. The manager was very friendly and attentive and came around to every table. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable as well. Some feedback to help improve, although not a big issue at all. Our water glasses were empty, and several of the staff, who were cleaning /setting tables, and avoiding any eye contact with the patrons, could have poured fresh water for everyone as other tables had also run out of water if they had looked around. A table beside us had water refilled, and if the staff member who poured the water had looked around to the tables directly beside, they could have refilled our glasses as well, without us having to ask. We did have to ask to get water, and service could be improved if everyone was looking out for that, and us not having to ask. Also when refilling water glasses, please bring the pitcher to the table, not the glasses to the pitcher stand.
    Saltlik - CalgaryResponded today
    Hi Kerrie, Thank you very much for your kind words about our manager and server—we’re glad they made a positive impression! We also truly appreciate your thoughtful feedback regarding the water service. Your observations are very helpful, and we’ll be addressing this with our team to ensure we’re more attentive in the future and improve the overall guest experience. We hope to welcome you back soon and provide an even better visit next time! Izabella Olechno

    Beautiful restaurant. Great location. Fantastic staff and delicious food. Steak was delicious, cooked just right. Mashed potatoes to die for and the dessert…..we tried the apple pie and sticky toffee I don’t think you could go wrong with anything on the menu! Our server Denis was fantastic, Personable, informative and just made the whole experience great. We will be back!

    We found our server would disappear for long periods of time. Would have purchased more drinks if there was someone to ask. My steak was chewy and I would have reported that but there was not follow up after our meal was delivered. Server was pleasant and provided great advice when available. Maybe they just had too many tables. Flowers were a nice touch for our 44th wedding anniversary we were celebrating at the restaurant.
    Saltlik - CalgaryResponded today
    Hi Joe, Thank you for celebrating your 44th anniversary with us! We’re happy you enjoyed the flowers and found your server pleasant and helpful. However, we’re sorry for the gaps in service and the steak issue. This is not the experience we aim for, and we appreciate your feedback. We’ll address this with our team to improve. We hope you’ll give us another chance to provide a better experience. Izabella Olechno Day Manager

    Vibrant and extremely busy. Reservation essential. Seemed to be running out of basics such as mashed potato. Once entree served, no further service offered and I had to get up and find a server to suggest I paid for our meal. No follow up by staff to ask if any further drinks or dessert were required. For the cost if the meal, better service was expected
    Saltlik - CalgaryResponded today
    Hi Caroline, Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the gaps in service and for any inconvenience caused by limited sides like mashed potatoes. We aim to provide attentive service throughout the meal and regret we fell short during your visit. Your comments are appreciated and will help us improve. We hope to have the chance to deliver a better experience next time. Izabella Olechno Day Manager

    Overall, this is a great experience. The food was very good and excellent service. We sat outside and enjoy the sites of Steven Avenue. For a steak, although very good was a bit on the higher side, but the person I was with really enjoyed it. I had the salmon and it was excellent. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone in the downtown Calgary area for a nice evening.

We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back the next time you're in downtown Calgary! Izabella Olechno Day Manager
