This family owned restaurant is like visiting friends. The food is tasty and plentiful. What sets Reds apart is the service. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Even when it's busy, they stop long enough to check in and say hello. This is my favorite diner in Calgary. Just be sure to get on the waitlist, especially on Sundays, as they do get busy. read more

The plan was to come here from breakfast but by the time tony and I gor up and walked from his place to here it was lunch time. So I ordered a ruban for lunch and tony stuck with the breakfast plan. It was acceptable, but not great. They did the thing with the sandwich where they pile all the filling in the center so it looks impressive when you slice it, but nothing around the outside so your eating crust. Staff was inattentive as well so we drank limited coffee as well. But it was a cool place with a nice patio to sit at.. read more

Loved this little brekkie spot! Service was great and the food was delicious. My friend had the Chorizo Hash & Eggs and I had the Beef Brisket & Eggs. Both were delicious. Cute place! read more

Likely not good for those who stick to 100% gf places, but for those who don't, Red's Diner Ramsay (1101 8St SE, Calgary, AB, Canada) just created a delicious gf breakfast. And their bread comes from Earths Oven! So yummy. Lastly, the server was glorious. Great experience all around. read more

We had brunch at Red's Diner in Ramsay on a Saturday in May, and I have to say that we experienced the worst service we have had at a restaurant ever. We sat in their covered patio area which felt a bit like sitting in a tropical greenhouse, because the staff did not want to open the roll-up enclosures for fear of letting in too much smoke( from the forest fires burning in the province) into the restaurant so instead they left us steaming in their hot box. We had to stand up and go ask for the servers to take our order, meanwhile other diners who came in much after us had ordered and eaten their meals by the time we even received our food, and zero acknowledgement of the delay By any of the staff who appeared more interested in chatting amongst themselves than helping customers. The food which took almost a full hour to be delivered to our table, was pretty good, but we had waited so long that by the time it came we had to pack it up in take out boxes and rush out. A truly memorably bad experience at this restaurant, which I hope never to return to. This was a masterclass in horrible service. read more

Absolute favorite breakfast spot in town! Great service and food! I love that in the summer the patio is dog friendly.

Food is usually great and they always accommodate my and my husband's tweaks to our order. Service is normally excellent. We rate other restaurants based on what we're used to at Reds. It's usually a little on the louder side as it's a happening place so if you're looking for white glove service and hush hush ambiance find some else. Personally I love the energy and the ambiance! read more

Service was great. And the food was top quality. Loved it! Roasted beef sandwich and tomato soup perfect. Soup tasted home made. Roasted beet salad had everything in it. Super yummy! read more

The food is very delicious, including gluten-free options. The service is always good. The ambiance is very pleasant.

Horrible customer service. We waited on the waitlist for 40 minutes. When we checked in they offered us a bad seat and my husband said we needed a lower table as I'm 8.5 months pregnant and their bar stools don't even have backs. They asked if we could wait another 10-15 minutes for a lower table we said no problem. 15 minutes later we were notified our table was ready, and they brought us to a bar seat again. We said we couldn't sit there and waited for a lower table to which the guy said he knew but that's all he had .. so we could wait another chunk of time who knew how long, even though we were #1 on the waitlist and we even selected accessible low seating in the original waitlist request .. we ended up just leaving. What a horrible experience. read more

Delicious food, quiet location, good service and friendly staff :) I have been here many times and I love it every time

We had a long wait even after calling, but the food was great and our server was attentive!

Came here for Sunday brunch and I'm very glad we called ahead! The wait was out the door and 40 min+ when we arrived. There are many breakfast and lunch options on the menu, including gluten free and vegan options if you require! I ordered the caprese benny. The combination of the tomato basil hollandaise sauce and the balsalmic reduction was perfect. Perfectly cooked soft potatoes. Great service despite how busy it was. Our server was attentive and refilled our drinks before we even thought to ask. read more

Beautiful little diner on the corner of hunger and hospitality! Undoubtably the best brunch spot in Calgary. The staff are hip, hospitable, and happening. The food is decadent as it is divine. The dining area is exquisite and extravagant. Chill vibes for sure. I've been a patron since fall 2017 and it's always a pleasure to see their friendly faces. WE STAN THE MOTHER HEN! 10/10 would recommend! read more

Excellent brunch! Great for kids too. Lovely outdoor seating area and awesome menu. A favourite.

Delicious food. Well presented and well prepared. Service was exceptional. We will come back.

Amazing service, consistently good food and fast paced ambience. The harvest bowl in particular is great.

Yum! Comfort food brunch was exactly what I was looking for when visiting Calgary during a frigid (and snowy!) stretch. There's a great app (No wait) that many brunch places in Calgary use (Vancouver seriously needs this) where you can reserve your place in line. It's awesome. Table was available shortly after our arrival. Huge menu. Good sized portions. Loved my Montreal smoked meat hash and eggs - so good! They have quite a few bread options to choose from too... the cheddar sourdough was perfect with this. I think everyone in my group was happy with their food. Friendly service. It's been awhile since I've been to Calgary but pricing is on par with Vancouver, which surprised me a little. read more

A must for breakfast in Ramsay /Inglewood areas. The parking is easy and FREE!! I can't even begin to tell you how friendly the staff is. It's simple , fast and perfectly cooked. The Bennies are killer here! Enjoy! read more

Didn't like anything about this place... always see it as it is down the street from my house. Finally went after 5 years of living in the neighborhood. And we went with kids. We didn't have to wait for a table witch was nice, but the food was disgusting, mother in-law sent our food back cause neither kids or us could eat it, yes you heard right. Even the kids who eat everything don't want it. That's bad if a kid won't eat it and it was chicken fingers and fries. We tasted it as well and didn't like it. We sent it back. They gave us free ice cream to try and make up for it. I'm sorry but REALLY? Wow... what's that going to do, other then make the kids hyper. Anyways service wasn't good, cramped sitting, table wear, and coffee mugs looked as if they grabbed it used from a bin in back ally, that someone threw away, everything was mis match. Over priced, for the expireance, and quality. Never going back. And they have weird hours of operation, but overall the washrooms are very clean. So there's that at least. They can clean. Maybe they should quit cooking and become a cleaning service, would be more their spead read more

This place is great! First time here but the atmosphere is very cozy and chill. The menu is a wide selection, although it is quite pricey. The serving portion however is large, so it works out well. Food tastes good! The eggs used are fresh farm eggs that the yolk is orange. Makes me wonder what else food here is fresh. Staff is friendly and parking is moderately big, if over parking you can park on the street. This location seems to get busy at certain times but the dining space is quite big, with a bar area. Washrooms are well kept. When Comparing this to Denny's, this is definitely upper class food. I'll be coming back here again for sure. Maybe even take someone special to eat here with, or share a plate. Recommended for anyone looking to try different food styles. read more

Great spot for brunch and, dare I say, the lunch is even better! I love their unique options for bennies, the huevos is delish, and the burgers are amazing. To top it all off, the service is friendly and consistent! read more

Red's Diner Ramsay - Ramsay Benny (no prosciutto, sub avocado) - Diners Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

I'm kinda mad at myself for never trying this place sooner. Always driving by thinking I should try this place for brunch. lol Finally gave it a try on the busiest day of the week, but Yelp's Nowait feature was great! We got there a little earlier than expected time and checked in. They made sure to accommodate us ASAP. (Within 15 minutes for a large party of 7.) I ordered the Ramsay Eggs Benedict. The hollandaise sauce was so creamy and rich but not too rich. The potatoes were okay. Coffee is amazing!! Avocado toast was yummy! Service was outstanding! I'm definitely going back as a treat. The prices are a bit on the higher side compared to other brunch joints inner city such as OEB. It was worth it though. Service made up for the high prices. Ha! read more

Did you know that you can save your place in line with the "No Wait" App? This really worked for us because we were driving in from out of town and they had a table ready almost immediately after we walked in. The host is very friendly. Our server was chatty and efficient. For my first time at this location, we chose the PRARIE BREAKFAST-The perfect breakfast for a your Eastern European craving....Rocky's kielbasa, perogies, multigrain toast, hash browns and eggs done to your liking. Oh and sour cream! I had the PACIFIC COAST BENNY - 2 medium poached eggs over smoked salmon on a toasted English muffin all covered in a smooth house made hollandaise sauce. All this topped with red onions, capers and served with potatoes and fruit. Exactly what a Benny should be in heaven! The coffee here is bold & strong so have a second cup but you really don't want to linger too long to be respectful to the people waiting But rest assured, not too far away in Inglewood are lots of great shops and boutiques to keep you entertained. Oh and Red's has 3 more locations! read more

Very popular diner in the Ramsay area. Excellent food and the staff are attentive, surprisingly so considering how busy it gets over the weekends. Establishment is very loud though and could benefit from opening the windows to let some of the acoustics out. I would recommend a table on the patio in order to have a conversation without shouting over everyone. read more

It was not the experience I expected. We left very unhappy. Food wasn't at all appetizing, or worth what we paid. Would have been better off going to a truck stop dinner. Food is way better, and get what you paid for. Outrages pricing for nothing. Kids even hated it. And that's a bad thing they love to eat and they wouldn't. Our orders were over cooked and trashed completely off. And when confronted about it. Said sorry, but here's some ice cream that we didn't ask for and had to pay for. Horrible would never recommend read more

I always feel disappointed whenever I cheat on Red's! It boasts a really unique experience from the decor to the moustache coffee mugs! The first time I ever dined alone was at Red's. Honestly, the staff were fantastic and as an avid breakfast eater/lover it's the BEST breakfast place in town! read more

Red's is our go to lunch place. Their fries are amazing (especially if you dip them in gravy). Our favorite things to order are the breakfast sandwich, the rueben or the BLT. Service is generally fast and pleasant. If you go on the weekend, expect a wait. read more

Very busy on a Saturday but we only had to wait for about 10-15 min and it was within the waiting list time range. Service was extremely slow though and our waiter didn't really care much. Too bad because food is good. My favorite one is on 58th. read more

Great spot built in an older brick building in an older neighbourhood. Loved the vibe and the source locally which is important to me. Came here because some website said it had one of the best eggs Benny in yyc I can say the eggs Benny were very tasty! The sauce was creamy and so yummy. I do like the lemon in my sauce stinger so that's the only thing I wud critique. The potatoes that came with were also SO tasty. Smaller sized and had a crispyness to them and a very nice slight seasoning. Comes with a couple wedges of fruit. The service was very good as well. Afton was our server and she was personable!! Definitely will be back. read more

I really enjoy this place. Great service, a diverse and delicious breakfast/lunch menu, wonderful staff and some the best coffee in the city. The only downside, with all their greatness they are popular, so expect a wait. It's worth it, even if you have to wait an hour, it is absolutely worth it. I promise. read more
