We made a last minute reservation before a Flames game on NYE and were seated near the bar. Our server was attentive and service was seamless. We started with calamari and the kale Caesar salad, both were flavorful and the perfect portion to share. For dinner, we both ordered the strip steak. We liked being able to choose our ounces. The steak came with crispy potatoes and a truffle aioli dip which was to die for. The restaurant was moody and the perfect atmosphere for a date night to ring in the new year! read more

Really nice, laid back place. Sat at the bar. The bartender was very nice & very knowledgeable of drinks and menu items. Their happy hour is great, half off drinks. I had the Smoked Beef "Carpaccio" for an appetizer which was excellent. For dinner I had the Bucatini Carbonara which was one of the best I've ever had. It had a Cacio e Pepe twist on it. Definitely be back when I work in town again. read more

Excellent service and a tasty menu! Atmosphere is great and it is always a great place to catch up with friends!

This was an incredible dining experience. We ordered cocktails, shared plates and entrees and everything that landed on our table was delicious. The menu is daring and diverse, service is excellent, and it's a beautiful place to hang out and have a leisurely meal with friends. read more

I went to Calgary for a week and came to this restaurant twice..this just shows how much I love this place!! This place is connected to Le Germain hotel in the core of Calgary. My colleague and I ordered a bunch of small plates to share. My fave is the albacore crude (had it twice!!), it was so fresh, soft and delicious! I also really enjoyed the roasted bone marrow escargot and charred octopus as they were so flavourful. The tuna conserva came with bread to dip in. The sauce that came with the pork belly was soo good (must dip if you get this dish). Zucchini salad was light, cool and complimented well with the pistachio. All the good here is great, I would pay another visit whenever I'm back in Calgary! read more

Awful breakfast sloppy service they touch your glass with the pitcher when pouring water very un hygienic, coffee was so bad couldn't drink it, server looked disheveled and dirty clothed read more

What could improve? Food, service, ambiance? Short answer, all of it. Let's start with service, our server wanted to be anywhere but working here. He had very little to offer in terms of recommendations and made the comment that "we can't be that hungry" when he could have kindly suggested we order more. Ambiance. Clearly it was easier to pay for a subscription for piped in dance music than curate music that add to the dining experience. Food left quite a bit to be desired and as our server correctly pointed out the portions are small. Some dishes are executed well but not enough to take an hour or two out of your life to come and eat at this price point. read more

Just went there thinking it was a steakhouse. Wrong . Ordered the prime rib and strip loin ( only two things on the menu resembling what we were looking for . Terrible quality . First time we have ever seen a charge for beef by the ounce . Over $250 for two people with a $ 95 bottle of wine and dessert . Go to the Keg for better value and meat or go to Ceasars for the same price if you want to go all out for a proper steak dinner . Murray H Calgary read more

Classy modern hotel steakhouse, the bone marrow is so decadent, a must try. I would come back again for sure.

Amazing experience! The atmosphere Is very romantic. The steak is juicy and tender and the service is top notch read more

I can't believe I didn't review this place after visiting last winter! I wanted some steak before seeing a Flames game and this place came highly rated, so I popped over early and sat at the bar. The helpful bartender set me up with a tasty old fashioned and as I perused the menu, she recommended the prime rib. She said they used Alberta beef, which was the best beef and I was not about to get into an argument so I said "let me have that" and just because I'm a bit of a glutton, I'll have some poutine with duck fat fries as well. The poutine was outstanding...I believe they said they got their curds regularly from Quebec. In any event, they were awesome. The prime rib was also outstanding. Great flavor and the au jus it was served with was delicious, as was the roasted garlic. Really tender and flavorful, that was a memorable piece of meat. Since I had done a nice five mile run earlier that day, I treated myself to some chocolate pudding. I had a very nice time here and would recommend it. Just make sure you're wearing some trousers with an elastic waistband! read more

Do not recommend. Not if you are from Texas anyways... ZERO flavor or spice to the food. The few flavors things did have were not desirable. I ate most of mine bc I was hungry after traveling but waiting an hour to get crappy food and pay high dollar for it?!? No thanks... only thing I could think to make sense of the raving reviews that made us go is our Texas palette must be VASTLY different than the locals. Toughest tenderloin I've ever eaten and only thing that made that "salsa" green was cilantro. Very very potent cilantro. read more

Charcuterie is located on Centre st SW at 9th Ave SW, convenient if you're staying at one of the big hotels or working downtown. Pleasant cozy seating and a nice bar area. Service is very good and accommodating. Good drinks menu with beers, wines and cocktails. The menu has lots of choices. The Caesar salad is crisp and tasty. I had the prime rib, which was good but a bit pricey for the serving size. Overall a nice spot for a relaxing meal and I wouldn't hesitate to visit again for dinner or drinks. read more

I had high expectations when I learned about this steakhouse. Solid reviews, promising menu, pictures from other yelpers that truly had me excited. I was warmly greeted by the hostess and chose a seat at the bar. The bartender was friendly and attentive. When I asked him for help deciding on a choice cut he had respectable advice. I settled on the classic. Prime rib, medium rare "the big cut (20oz)" with a side of potatoes. Everything was delicious...... until I cut into the spinalis part of my ribeye.... Sorry, prime rib. It was tough, dry...... disappointing. How can this be? It's loaded with marbling and flavour. Even the keg doesn't get this wrong! When I asked to speak to the chef (after all....... This isn't a cheap cut on the menu at $110 so I felt it appropriate to speak up) I was greeted by...... not the chef. The person that came out agreed it was over cooked, dry and not right..... and Then he left! No resolution, no suggestion. My server (the bartender) was most apologetic and offered me another cut of the same thing. I declined because it didn't make sense to me to try another piece that might end up being the exact same thing. After all..... Prime rib is prepared in its entirety which means the piece I had would have been cooked the same as the other 6 ribs from the same slab. Why waste another 20oz piece? I dug in a few more bites in hopes there might be more tender findings but sadly there weren't. The manager came over and asked why I wasn't satisfied and kudos to the team for making her aware of it. She was nice and listened but rather than offering a reduced price for the meal she offered a beer. Yes it's something but I wasn't interested in cutting into a beer....... I wanted the steak to be perfect. I suppose I should've heeded the warning signs when my bartender pulled out a dull steak knife and started sharpening it in front of me whilst seeing my obvious surprise and lamenting "I don't know why our owners don't want to provide our customers real steak knives!" That statement right there provides insight into a fancy steak house that thinks it's a cut above, but sadly doesn't come anywhere close to my all time consistent "Chop" steakhouse. Maybe they'll read this and maybe they'll change some fundamentals. Until that time....... I won't be back. read more

Love this restaurant! The food and service is always outstanding. Great lunches as well as dinner

Terrible experience. I wanted to stay in on my birthday so we ordered the prime rib dinner for two from Charcut - which was clearly advertised on Skip the Dishes as including vegetables, a caesar salad, and dessert. What arrived was literally just a piece of meat and a rock-hard and totally inedible piece of focaccia that must have been left over from the previous day. No salad, no vegetables, no dessert. After repeatedly calling the restaurant the assistant manager said he would refund the order - which turned out to be $15 in Skip credits (!). Restaurants are going under everywhere because of this kind of bad service and total inability to realize that acting this way loses them customers forever. We've had tons of dinners and business meetings at Charcut and I will never, ever, go there again and will recommend places like Hy's or Vintage to people instead. This was truly pathetic behavior from what used to be considered a good restaurant. read more

We went there to celebrate the last night of Calgary! The manager Nakita did a great job on decorating table for my birthday event requested by my husband and another manager Aparna made sure we're taken care of through the night! The food was amazing! My husband loved the Alberta steak. He had a high expectation of it and the taste was over his expectation! I also enjoyed the Nduja agnolotti with ricotta pasta! The combination of pasta and steak was amazing! Our waitress Erica recommended and served the great food and drinks! Thank you for the pasta recommendation! :) The food was over the expectation but what's better was people and ambiance made our last night perfect! Highly recommend! read more

Nice downtown Calgary steak house. I met my banker here on a Sunday night, which was very quiet and what we needed. Service was good and food was as well. Bar service was fine but could have been better. That's more likely a function of our waiter bringing wrong drinks that I assume was his miscommunication with the bartender. Overall, a nice spot for a business meal. read more

Came here for lunch and ordered their beef chuck cheeseburger with parmesan fries as the server mentioned it's a fan favourite. He was not wrong. We indulged and added mushrooms and a fried egg to our burger. It was huge and none of us were able to finish the burger but it was finger lickin good. The patty was cooked perfectly and it was super juicy and tasted really fresh. There was also a lot of melted cheese that came in that burger which was delicious but also made the burger very rich and that much harder to finish Very friendly service. We each got a bag of their chocolate chip cookies to go. Tasty but perhaps not worth the $5 for two small cookies. Overall definitely a very lovely lunch! read more

By far one of my favorite places to go for lunch! They have a fantastic lunch menu and one of the best Beef Dips you will ever have! I do choose their lunch sandwich special that comes with fries, soup and a cookie on the odd occasions but I always resort back to the Beef Dip! Been eating here for years and even moved to Toronto for 5 years but they have never changed their quality! So good!!! read more

We were in town over Thanksgiving and all of our Canadian friends had family obligations so my bf and I treated ourselves to a lovely steak dinner. I started with the poutine which was a great choice. My steak was perfectly done with a nice chimichuri on the side. The sticky toffee pudding was a great warming finish to the meal. read more

Charcut came number 1 on the list when I was looking for poutine in Calgary. They're famous for their duck fat poutine! We got their set lunch combo with daily pasta and rotisserie chicken sandwich and the poutine. Pricing was okay. It's not cheap but definitely affordable for an upscale vibe The poutine was fantastic and what I imagine poutine to taste like. It definitely was on the soggy side but I think that's expected from poutine. The sandwich was good but all the food felt so heavy with the thick focaccia bread, cheese and chicken and then the Alfredo pasta. Overall: I recommend coming here to try their poutine for sure. But I'm not sure if it'll be the best meal you'll have in Calgary! read more

Really don't understand why this place gets such rave reviews? Yes the home made sausage was great, but everything else was just ok and the steak rather disappointing which in Alberta I have found a difficult thing to achieve. Alberta has some of the very best beef I have eaten anywhere in the world. But when cooked, it needs time to rest. Surely every cook knows this simple fact?? Clearly was not brought in to practice on our visit. Shame really. They make a great old fashioned. read more

WOW loved the prime rib sandwich. It was amazingly delicious. Also portion was huge. Well I came with my colleague lunch and was told that they have lunch special here. Every day they have a sandwich special that came with soup, fries and cookies for $16. Today deal was pullpork sandwich but I didn't feel like pullpork. So I ended up ordering the prime rib sandwich. Also this place has home made pickle and home made ketchup (my colleague said it was too sweet). The ketchup is a bit sweeter than normal but it was so good with fries. Décor was nice. Service was friendly. Food came really quick. Also this place fills up really quick for lunch. I suggest you coming early say 11:30 to beat the rush. Highly recommend it. read more

It's incredibly disappointing. I've been a regular here, often bringing my team from work who appreciate their gluten-free options, including fries. However, today was a letdown. No gluten free fry's, no gluten free bread. And despite previous assurances, they could accommodate a gluten-free salad, the salad ordered ended up with gluten-filled bread crumbs, which was especially concerning for the celiac in our group. To top it off, the lack of compensation or acknowledgment from the server was disheartening. Sadly, we won't be returning after this experience. Celiac options are something very important for those on my team and sadly this restaurant does not seem to accommodate these needs any more. read more

Such a great place by two of the best long-term chefs in Calgary they usually have something new on their menu which is worth trying

Posting a review from an early evening dinner at the bar on a Friday. Being the first person at the bar I was able to get personal attention to sort through their cocktails and full wine list. Which if you enjoy wine, their selection looks diverse and plentiful. As a gin fan, I chose the Charcut-flower which was a little sweeter than I was expecting which the bartender was able to correct adding a little more gin. Thank-you Joel!! So many items on the menu sound delicious so I went with the house specialty, prime rib. Going with a 6oz portion, I was able to finish yet enjoy an overload of flavors. This cut did not need a steak knife nor any horseradish but a little didn't take away the flavor. The prime rib is finished in a smoker giving it a subtle campfire like flavor amongst the tenderness of meat and fat. Pairing it with their take on a Caesar salad, I was eating happy. With breadcrumbs, lots of Parmesan cheese, thick fresh pieces of greens and a oversoft egg as an extra dressing, it's worth sharing. Oh, did I forget to mention there is bacon in the Caesar. Great spot with the owners story inside the cocktail list made me happy with my decision to have dinner here. read more

My experience here was less than acceptable. I would not eat here again. I would only recommend this place to people I hate. All this hype brought me here and as glossy as the venue is, that's all you will get. Gloss. Our broccolini was grilled to a crisp but drizzled in oil to look glossy. It was inedible. If you look at my pictures you'll see why. We had reservations a week in advance as this was a big occasion for the family. We were seated away from the dining room, near the busy and loud bar in the front. We ordered 2 a bottle of wine, it was served with an air of "we don't give a damn." Our Bone Marrow au Gratin was ok at best. It had 4 bites. Tuna spread was plain horrid, bland, and tiny. $29 for 6 bite size peices of lamb? Fish was a travesty, it was grilled dry through and through. The 27 ounce steak the birthday boy ordered was ok at best. Poutine was about the only thing that was good, but wasn't enough to share between 2 people because it was THAT small. Chicken? Swiss chalet could have done better. Just when I thought dessert would save the day...... both items came out like it was tossed on a plate out of a box. Just look at the picture. All the server could do was make frowny faces after seeing how dry and inedible everything was. That was the most expensive meal I have ever paid to eat complete rubbish. read more

Our Team Lead took us to Dinner here to celebrate a project milestone and to say Thank You for a job well done. Janet is a bit of a foodie and also really wanted to try CHARCUT, especially on an expense account. CHARCUT Roast House is basically an upscale urban rotisserie, with a lot of chef-driven buzz and Country French and Italian accents. This is also a "local and sustainable" place in which ingredients are sourced from small, artisan farmers and ranchers, with herbs harvested daily from their own garden. I appreciate that as a long-time Golden State resident, although the bio-dynamic pretense factor here was perhaps a little too dear for my taste. And what's with the bright red above the open kitchen counter? CHARCUT has 2 wine lists, their regular one and a "upon request" reserve selection. I suppose that my biggest surprise (beside the wine list prices which are outrageous by Northern California standards) was the fact that their Canadian wine selection was so limited. Considering the superior quality vino that comes from places like the Niagra Peninsula and the Okanagan Valley, I don't understand why high concept foodie places that emphasized local and sustainable don't play to those strengths. The moral of this part of the story? If I want a nice and reasonably priced selection of Canadian wines to go with my Canadian meal, you'll find me at Earl's. The food on the other hand was fabulous, while the service and atmosphere almost matched. My colleagues raved about their steak and my Share Burger (CHARCUT Style "roasted garlic sausage patty, cheese curds, with a fried egg") was even better. We also shared a number of appetizers (whose selection escapes me) that tipped us off that there was much more culinary goodness to come. While the others relished their desserts, I capped off my evening with a purchase of a jar of homemade Brassica mustard as a well received present for Gayle. And if both of us ever make it back to Calgary together, this is one place might find us for a special meal together. read more

This place is hip, and modern. Perfect for a date night! The place is dim but still has warm lighting. My boyfriend and I decided to share the prime rib, duck fat poutine fries, and duck fat brussel sprouts since we weren't too hungry. Little did we know the portion was going to be HUGE! The fries were salty and savory. The brussel sprouts were crispy and cooked perfectly. And the prime rib was tender and juicy. It came with a whole roasted garlic (my fave!), salt, and horseradish. We ordered wine to sip on during dinner also. Everything in the meal was just so complementary, we couldn't let anything go to waste! The waitress was very helpful with our questions when ordering. Keep in mind the prime rib is ordered by the ounce (4.5 CAD/ounce) and the sides are ordered separately. It was a very romantic meal for two! read more
