    This place is such a hidden gem. Nestled in inglewood, down an alley by Plant. The signs were clear to see and easily accessible. The vibe was amazing in the main bar area and their additional dinning with open kitchen was also cute and cozy. We got the bread and butter (truffle butter and freshly made bread) , crudo: the cucumber and pickled onion on top made this so much more flavourful, beef tartar: served with ms Vickie’s chips (amazing!),the burger that was made to perfection and the pasta, which my partner said it was one of the best he ever had. Everything we got was amazing. Would highly recommend checking this place out!

    Business and pleasure is our local favourite spot for drinks, amazing food and intimate ambiance. The service is always exceptional and they remember when you come back. Must haves are the oysters and sparkling wine, the beef tartare and the Cuban sandwiches.

    We sat at the bar for a drink and despite the bartender being obviously very busy, he was so friendly and chatty. He provided us with fun info about their cocktail collection, as well as information about the current cocktail scene in Calgary. It was so lovely getting to speak with him and he was definitely a major part of our experience being as great as it was. Drinks were delicious and unique as well!

    Dinner out with the Family. Nice cozy space. Amazing cocktail list. Food was excellent. The one comment was that there was a prolong delay between our carbohydrate plates and our protein plates. In addition, a plate that we had ordered never arrived and we eventually cancelled the order. The adults ended up striking a conversation with the table behind us so we did not notice the delay as much. The minors in our group felt the delay more. The staff was incredibly apologetic about the situation and went above and beyond to correct the errors. The family was grateful and the minors enjoyed the final plates. Overall, a very lovely evening out with the Family, in an cozy space, great tasting cocktails and delicious food all surrounded by pleasant caring staff.

    Love this little gem. 2nd visit. Unfortunately the kitchen was down with an issue and we were not able to experience all that there is to offer.
