    The food at ten foot Henry has always been consistent and is always delicious every time we come and we’ve been coming here for yearssssss. We tried two new to us dishes as we always order our usual ones and they were both pretty good!! We had the Henry salad, tomatoes and sourdough, spaghetti, the chicken and butterscotch pudding. We were happy with all of our choices. The service was amazing - from the hostess to our server. They were so accommodating to my requests and I look forward to my next visit.

    This was a surprise. It is a well established place, but nailing that tomahawk to perfection was a hugely welcoming surprise. Best tomahawk ever, and not only in Calgary. I guess four day marinading and other magic must take place, still we treasured every bite. Broccolini and mushrooms were great as the sides; stake tartar was perfectly balanced; the salmon crudo had a beautifully balanced marinade but was a touch off. The tying part for it was Tasha, she was fantastic, full of energy, leaving us with the image of our new best place to go to! Thank you all.
