Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Chef Don Lee

From the OpenTable editors: At Ten Foot Henry, chef Stephen Smee delivers vegetable-forward dishes that are anything but predictable. The menu—designed for sharing—transforms fresh produce into bold, flavor-packed plates like roasted carrots with salsa macha or umami-rich mushrooms with soy butter. A sunlit, plant-filled space and feel-good energy make this a Calgary staple.

Great food & Service, the Tomato & Whipped Feta starter was gorgeous as was the rest of the food. Communication was fab when I needed to make changes to my booking. Would very much recommend, a great Bar too !!!

                                                We went to Ten Foot Henry for an early dinner before the dinner rush, and it was quiet, relaxed, and lovely. Our server was incredibly helpful, offering thoughtful recommendations that made our choices easy. We started with the tomato dish and the in-house gluten-free seed bread. I’ve had this dish before with the sourdough (also delicious), but honestly, I think I prefer the seed bread. It’s flavourful, hearty, and pairs perfectly. This dish is a long-time favourite of mine and something I’ll continue ordering again and again. We also had the Caesar salad, which is made with kale. I don’t usually gravitate toward kale salads, but this one is absolutely divine. So well balanced and fresh. For our main, we shared the Arctic char with curry, and it was outstanding. The curry had just the right amount of kick. Not too spicy, just enough warmth to enhance the dish beautifully. We finished with the mini butterscotch pudding topped with salted caramel and sponge toffee. It was rich, smooth, and the perfect size to satisfy a sweet craving. To drink, we tried the house-made lemonade, a pina colada-style mocktail, and an iced latte. Each one was refreshing and so well made. I always look forward to dining at Ten Foot Henry. The dishes are simple in concept, but everything is so well thought out and executed with care. The ingredients shine, and the flavours are consistently spot on. 10/10 recommend. Just make sure to reserve ahead. It’s popular for a reason.

                                                We were a little unsure of what we would experience, having read a few negative reviews, but what we did actually experience was an absolutely delicious selection of sharing plates, each one unique and bursting with original flavour combinations and textures. The environment was fantastic, everyone working hard to make sure we had the best possible experience. Our server was exceptional recommending dishes with knowledge and enthusiasm, he was fun and yet professional. We will definitely return to this restaurant next time we visit Calgary.

                                                The food wassuperb, salads all fresh and delicious, we tried 3 and all very good! Next level cooking, a change from the pubs and stampede fare served most everywhere. Highly recommend. The staff is extremely friendly, especially with long wait lines, they managed to get you in and seated with a smile. It’s Canada and it shows!!!!
