We received confirmation for March 25 at 7:15pm reservation, arrived on time, only to find the doors were locked. Tried calling the restaurant’s phone number, no answer and no business voicemail. Clearly this place went out of business and fast, as they still have a giant sign hanging over their doors that says “Now Open” (ironic) and their website is still up & running. Such a shame.

What a joke, make a reso and the place was closed. Read some reviews about poor management on the Owners part. After reading terrible Google reviews I’m fortunate I didn’t end up wasting money here. Nothing says the place is closed, what kind of “business owner” was this? Also read he couldn’t pay his staff, terrible.

The food was excellent, the service was mediocre. If the service matched the food, this place would be one of the best steakhouses in Calgary.

Restaurant was nicely decorated in a modern design and layout was open. Waitress was not very knowledgeable about wine selections and daily specials. The over all presentation was nice . Steak lacked flavour, slightly over cooked and in my option was not worth the price of 70 dollars. The side of Mash potatoes were lumpy and had very little flavour. The amount of Seasonal carrots and broccoli serving could have been a bit bigger and were over cooked; lacking flavor. For the price , was rather disappointing

Everything was amazing. This was our second time and they did not disappoint. Service was wonderful and the food was delicious. We appetizers, wine and dinner. The first time we went, we went for lunch and so much for we had to pack some home. We had the corporate luncheon. What a value for 26.00. This time we went for a birthday in our family and everyone’s dinner was divine. My husband and son shared the 99.00 special. Did not disappoint. I sure hope they do a social media blitz and get a little busier or they won’t be around long.

The food was tasty enough, nothing crazy spectacular, but when you look at the price for what you got, it was not worth it. I don't anticipate returning, again the quality of the food did not match the outrageous prices. You would expect way higher quality for the price.

We highly recommend the new lunch menu! Standouts were the short rib beef dip, steak sandwich and ahi tuna appetizer. Our server was lovely but quickly overwhelmed as she was the only front of house staff. The weak link was the manager - he didn’t acknowledge us (despite passing our table in an empty restaurant) and wouldn’t pitch in to help when the server fell behind. Definitely not the level of service I would expect from a high end steakhouse.

Strong odour when we came in (smelled like body odour?) and virtually empty even though it was a busy night elsewhere (other steak houses booked up). Food was poor quality - steak was cold, potatoes unsalted and dry. Appetizer brought out at same time as steak ( which had clearly been sitting awhile). Got rye and coke without any rye in it. Mistake with other drink. Waitress was clearly new, which is understandable, but after we paid she physically stood in our way and tried to argue with us about the amount of tip. Tried to bring in the manager even though we told her we just wanted to leave (and had provided feedback during the meal). Overall not a great experience.

Food was okay and expensive for what you got. Ambience was low key and not inviting. The table they sat us at… I was literally sitting next to a mouse trap! There was no interaction with our waitress other than she just took our order. We get that same experience at takeout. We ordered an item they didn’t have which was fine but then did not take it off the bill. Thank goodness we checked the bill before leaving the restaurant. Overall it was not a good experience. When you are spending northwards if $350….. you want an experience out! We will not go back nor will we recommend it.

The sirloin steak was very tender and tasty! Sometimes that cut can be tough, not here! Came with veg and choice of potatoes. Good value for quality I think. Waitress was very attentive and friendly though not that knowledgeable on beer, wines. The ambiance is different?! Attractive enough, we had a large private booth, lighting was a bit harsh. Will go back for the food!

This was our first time at the restaurant. And when the place was dead at 530pm I immediately lowered my expectations. We were seated in the dining room and read the specials. My husband ordered a glass of wine, the waitress said they didn’t carry that wine anymore, then brought an “updated” wine list with that wine still listed on it. During our meal I overheard her saying the same thing about a different wine to a different customer. It seems like an update on the menu is definitely in order. I had the lobster and crab ravioli. My husband a steak, everything was tasty, well prepared, and a good portion for the price. The only other off putting thing was being told it was preferred for us to pay in cash. But she had the machine for debit or credit “if we really needed it”. Overall the food was good but we likely wouldn’t come back.

Waited at the front for anyone to come by, and it was very empty for a Friday night. Server 1 was nice but had no clue what the beer on tap was but that it was local and then disappeared for 15 minutes when we had decided on drinks. Server 2/ bartender took over and got our drinks after 15 minutes, my Prosecco gin fizz was straight up lemon juice and barely any gin.. so that was odd tasting. Caesar was all right Tomahawk steak was good, chimichurri sauce was very good. Cauliflower bites were good as well. For an empty place, slow service has no excuse with that many staff- and to top off the night, someone was vaping weed inside. It was so strong and so gross. No way they didn’t smell it 🤢 Has potential but needs some work.

Higher end prices with good quality food at lower level ambiance - attempting to be higher scale. Staff were friendly. It’s a casual atmosphere, which is in contrast to what you’d expect from a higher end restaurant. The renovations from Jack Astors attempt to be higher scale, but the old garage patio roll up doors and industrial sinks in the bathroom remain and give less and ideal ambiance. The bathrooms don’t like they’ve been cleaned in quite sometime.

Underwhelming meal. We went at 5:30pm on a Saturday which was a bit early but the vibe was really quiet and the place is huge with a lot of open space so when not full it feels very weird. The server was friendly but couldn't tell us what beer or wine was available without checking. Otherwise service was decent and food/drinks arrived quickly. We started with artichoke dip, the dip was fine, nothing special. It's served with mini brioche buns which would have been better toasted or grilled. The buns were kind of dry and just seemed an odd choice for dip. My companion had the Maui ribs and quite liked the crispy rice cake but said the ribs were just ok. I had a sirloin with Oscar upgrade. The steak was a bit chewy in places but cooked nicely. Unfortunately the seasoning crust was slightly burnt. The potatoe puree (basically a scoop of if mashed potatoes) and veggies were standard. For dessert we shared the sticky toffee pudding which was piping hot out of the microwave. Flavor was good but cake lacked texture due to obvious microwave zap, and ice cream melted too fast. Overall, for the prices, we expected a lot more and probably won't be back anytime soon. We actually said we missed Jack Astor's which says it all.

They were short staffed so we waited for someone to seat us and then again for someone to take our drink orders. The person serving us didn’t appear to be a server but tried his best and it was very awkward. 2 of us had the chicken cashew bowl and it was subpar. The steaks were good but not great. We will not be going back.
