DOPO, meaning 'after' in Italian, is an intimate dining experience in the lower level of Elizabeth Square in Marda Loop, Calgary. Inspired by D.O.P, its predecessor restaurant, DOPO has been reimagined by Executive Chef, David Leeder and Owner, Tony Migliarese. With strong opinions from Mamma Rose, of course.

What a wonderful place for a special meal, night out and truly incredible food and service. We sat at the bar and the bartender was quick to recommend food and drinks. I tried the spritz which was awesome, my friend asked for an Old Fashioned and then a surprise. Both excellent. I asked for a glass of white to go with dinner and he chose the perfect pairing. If you go, you must try the ricotta and tomato’s and bread. So incredible. Tiramisu was the best I’ve had. As an Italian, I can say this place is legit and worth the wait for a reservation. Can’t wait to go back to DOPO

Had booked a table; not bar seating a table. Got told we could grab a cocktail and appetizer at the chefs bar while we waited for our table to become available. No one came over for 15 minutes to take a drink order. Then no one proceeded to offer us our actual booked table so we sat at the chefs bar for our entire night. The chairs at the chefs bar are not comfortable, my back was killing me by the end of dinner. Service could have been better in the aspect of recommendations. Also not to mention swearing by the kitchen staff. The food was good though.

Nice ambiance but nothing special. Arrived at 6:25 for a 6:30 reservation, finally seated at 6:57, so not a great start. The flatbread and pasta were good, but again nothing special. The veal however, was very salty. No need to return.

Hard to beat this place. Quite honestly the food and the service trump most places I've been in Calgary. The atmosphere is reminiscent of a warm, cozy Italian restaurant and with each new menu you find another dish the blows your mind. Literally the gold standard.

An amazing dining experience. The ambience starts it off with a very Italian setting and decor. The food was delicious - high quality ingredients combined with creative combinations of flavours that made for a wonderful meal. The service was top notch - casual but professional all at the same time. Everyone seemed to take pride in the food and your experience. Having family heirlooms for the cup and saucer for the espresso along with a light and tasty tiramisu was the perfect ending. Well done!
