Which means you get zero service. In general, I did not like my food. The filling in my taco was cheap and flavorless.

Costa Vida has been one of my favourite chains in Calgary. I have not had any issues with food…read morequality, or service. The eating area is usually clean, though it is one of those restaurants that you clear your tray after your done. One thing that I have noticed "Mexican food" chains all seem to offer chips & Salsa/ Queso / Guacamole, Costa Vida are pretty good with enough Salsa to go with the chips. You are pretty much guaranteed to have a fresh tortilla when you order your meal, and as you wait you can watch staff press and make as they are needed, or when you order. Lots of "fresh" offerings, as you can see everything in front of you. Though sometimes you will see that items have been sitting in the heating area for some time. I have mainly seen this late afternoons early evenings. The salsas are extremely tasty, though they have been "Canadianized" so not too spicy. Meats are good, kids menus are varied for all types of kids wants. They also offer Mexican drinks which are pretty tasty, a nice change from the usual soft drink options. Now, I am going to say one complaint about this particular restaurant on the day of my visit. I applaud the cleaning of any restaurant, I do question cleaning out the refuse area trash containers with soapy water during opening hours, and pulling out the cooking area and having someone wiping down the venting while food prep is still going on. Not to sure if this is policy, but maybe can be done after hours. I have been here pre COVID, this was the first time I have ever seen this.

The staff was fast and very friendly. Our waitress was really lovely and polite. I got some tacos (suadero, barbacoa, cochinita and bistec con queso) and the Classico margarita.

Other than that, we have a lovely time at the restaurant.

Service was super quick and everybody was very nice. You would need to find street parking or park in a lot and walk over.

While we were looking for places to eat in Calgary, we saw that one of the things the city was…read moreknown for was BBQ. As a result, we saw that Hayden Block had some good reviews so we decided to visit the restaurant. We came for dinner and there was a lot of space inside, so we were able to be seated right away. The interior is lively and rustic, with helpful waiters. For the food we decided to try the hot link, brisket, pork spare ribs, bacon wrapped corn on the cob, and deep fried pickles. All the meats were juicy and flavorful, just some solid BBQ all around. The corn and pickles were nice sides, and I think they were good choices overall. If you're looking for BBQ in Calgary, this is definitely a nice place to check out!
