Besides the view there was nothing unique about Sky 360. Yes the staff were great and always filling up our water, offered to take a picture of my wife and I on our anniversary, but that was it. For the price of the food there are better restaurants in town that offer bigger portion sizes and better food. At the end of the day though this is where my wife wanted to eat and a happy wife makes a happy life! read more

We love this restaurant! The food is always amazing, the menu changes frequently and the view is perfect. The atmosphere is relaxed and dressy. Colin was a wonderful server! Hats off to him! Make reservations to ensure you get a table. The elevator ride is free with a reservation and the observation deck is pretty spectacular. For those who don't know....the floor rotates slowly so you get a 360 view of the city, without leaving your seat. read more

I took my husband here for Sunday brunch when we were passing through Calgary, We went rather early (11 AM) and got good service and excellent food. I wasn't wowed by the lunch selection by the eggs Benedict on top of crab cakes was great. My husband had the veggie eggs Benedict and really liked it too. We went on a clear day, so that was a plus. And afterwards we went up to check out the view from the glass floor. As others said, there is no charge to take the elevator up to the restaurant if you have reservations, but if you decide to eat while you are on top, there is no refund for the elevator ride. I felt we got a good meal for the price, and i would go back again. read more

Expected the view to be great but didn't hold my breath for the food & was pleasantly surprised. My wife & I both had steaks, her the striploin & I the rib-eye. The rib-eye was fantastic, great cut of beef that was tender & juicy as a rib-eye should be served. My wife enjoyed the striploin but I can't say much about it as she didn't let me try but a bite & finished the whole steak! We also had the duck wontons for an appetizer which was very tasty as well, a little on the salty side but great nonetheless. The dessert was ok, nothing extraordinary but definitely filled up our sweet tooths. I had the brownie & gelato, wishing there had been more gelato, and my wife had the strawberry rhubarb cheesecake. Overall, great meal & view! read more

I only really come here with my mother during the teachers convention every year. I've never had a bad experience here, the service has been good every time and it's a unique location, the food is nothing special in my opinion. The only thing that keeps me coming is spending time with my mother. read more

Still as pretentious and under delivering as it was 10 years ago. Restaurant is run by a bunch of 20-year-olds think they own the world. Great view as usual very clean just way overpriced food for the low-value that it is. read more

Great view of downtown Calgary in this beautiful revolving restaurant. The food is presented nicely, but food is not flavorful and service is so-so. read more

The idea and location for the restaurant are OK, yet the food is less than impressive. We ordered the Porter house steak, for $120 it was about 1/3 bone (I am being conservative) and 1/4 fat making for quite an expensive dish especially as it is advertised as a a 2 people portion. read more

Food was delicious, we got to go around the entire tower 1.5 times while we were there, great way to see the city!

Instead of paying admission for the Calgary Tower, you should go to this restaurant upstairs, because you do not have to pay any admission fee if you eat at this restaurant. The Alberta beef burger was very tasty, the roast beef sandwich was dry and not very flavorful, and the calamari appetizer was very good. The prices are expensive, but when you get to the tower without an admission fee, the prices are OK after all. The rotating restaurant was a very nice feature, and we had window seats and really enjoyed the view. read more

We had a family brunch here on a Sunday and were surprised it wasn't more crowded. We lucked out because it was a beautifully clear day so we could see for miles, but I assume the view would have its own charm if in the clouds or snow. Jamie, our server, was responsive, knowledgable and kind. He made the experience that much better with his comfortable conversation and sense of humor. Thank you! While our attention was turned to the view for most of the visit, I believe the restaurant was clean and easily navigable (duh, just keep walking if you get lost). The music choice was a bit odd, a bit too loud and some very yell-y songs at times. My brother and I both had the hash and thought it was overly salted. The donut platter was fun but a bit dry. But the mimosas were grand and the ever flowing coffee delicious. We'll be back to say hello to 360 degrees of Calgary whenever the family is all back together in town. read more

If you want to overpay for mediocre food, be treated rudely, and be disappointed in your overall dining experience then by all means visit this place. The poor quality of the experience comes down from the top as the managers behaviour was dismissive, terribly unprofessional and pretentious. Have never been treated so poorly at any other restaurant. Don't let the allure of the view make up for this mismanaged, under-maintained establishment. Perhaps it's fashionable for some folks to dine this way but we will certainly never return here. Looks like quite a few others have experienced what we did and we certainly understand their complaints. Recommend visiting the viewing platform and then spending your money on a quality meal where your business will be appreciated in one of the many excellent restaurants Calgary has to offer close by. Thanks Sky 360 and Nasser for leaving us with a bad taste! read more

Go for the atmosphere not the 360 burger, the burger was bland, hard to eat nicely and the bun was so stale it crumbled in my hands. The view is great and you save admission to the tower. Wine selection is nice and waiters know their wine. read more

The ambiance obviously pretty cool - you're in a rotating restaurant. The drinks are very pricey! The food is average. I ordered the salmon entree and it arrived cold and overall bland. Food isn't worth the price tag! Really quite disappointing read more

This place is actually really good! I came here for lunch on Saturday and was able to get a seat without reservation. The view is gorgeous, of course the fact that it slowly rotates also helps. The best part about this restaurant is that they are able to match the service and food quality with the view, something that I rarely experience with revolving restaurants. I chose the Express Lunch menu today which was reasonably priced - appetizer, entree, dessert and coffee/tea at CAD 35 + tax. They waived the 'elevation fee' of the Calgary tower as well. The food quality was great - the salad was especially good, the burger was juicy and balanced, the French onion is hearty and nice, and the mango pineapple gelato was delicious. The server today was very friendly, professional and informative - I overheard his conversation with the table behind me about construction around downtown core. It was such a good experience that I will make sure to come back. read more

This was our first time coming to this restaurant and we were highly impressed. The negative comments on this website had us a little worried, but we wanted to experience the revolving restaurant anyways. Our waitress was lovely. She allowed me to taste the mulled wine before committing to it. Our meals were delicious. Apparently they just changed up the menu a few weeks ago, based on feedback from the customers. My husband had the chicken and I had the ravioli. We would rate the chicken a 10/10 and the ravioli a 9.5/10. The place was busy. Our reservation was at 7pm and we were seated by 7:05pm. The atmosphere, service and food were great. We will be back! read more

The service was great and I would have given 5 stars but my buffalo short ribs were leather. It's suppose to be cooked for 24 hours..... Not and the wait staff didn't even bother to ask how my meal was when I left all of my protein in the table. read more

We went to this restaurant for our 20th wedding anniversary. The food was very good and views from the top of the restaurant amazing! I was very impressed with the overall service. It was a little expensive overall but well worth it. I would definitely go back again. read more

This was our first time here and will be our last. Being in the tower we had high expectations but ended up leaving disappointed. I orders steak medium rare and it came out blue rare with a cool center. The meat had no seasoning and was very bland. The kids ordered pancakes at $10 each, when brought out there was three loonie cakes on each plate and that's it. It was not enough food even for my toddler and he is not a big child. Ended up having to take the kids to McDonalds after we finished our lunch because they were still hungry. Service was slow despite the fact that it wasn't busy and there were numerous wait staff present. Our server never came by to check on us or to offer refills on our drinks. Our food was brought out without utensils, I had to ask for them and by the time we got them everything was cold. It took way to long to get our bill as none of the staff seemed to know where the debit machines were. Hopefully this was just a bad day for them but we won't be back to find out. Will stick to Cut & Char in the Lethbridge tower next time we are looking for a unique dining experience. read more

Food was over priced and the value was absolutely terrible. My wife order the stuffed supreme chicken breast goat cheese, wild rice, mashed potato, fall vegetables, roasted pepper gastric $36.00 and it was absolutely dry and not very easy to eat at all very bad actually. The appetizer, The Alberta mezze for two truffle foie gras mousse , spiced pepper pico de gallo, artichoke and spinach dip, crisp pita, in house pickled veg for 22 dollars? What an absolute rip off! Pickled crap with burnt bread pieces? REALLY? TERRIBLE! Now the worst and biggest rip off of the evening was the Alberta ribeye truffle foie gras mousse, seasonal vegetables, garlic mashed potato (10 oz) for $52.00! First when I order the steak the waitress argued with me about the way I want my steak done I told her rare! She argued and said "chef recommends it being done a minimum of medium rare! My response was for 52 dollars I want my steak rare because if they over cook it then it is medium rare if they under cook it it is rare then I am happy. If I order medium rare and it is medium I will immediately send it back. I know how to order my steak! When I got my "steak" I was given a thin little crappy steak that looked like a 5 dollar minute steak. It was thin squished and certainly was not close to 10 oz before or after it was cooked. Looked like a 6 oz pounded flat to appear to be a 10 oz steak. IT WAS NOT 10 OZ and I do not care what the response from the restaurant is I know I am right as I am 51 years old and know what a $52.00 10 oz Ribeye looks like! Go to Wellingtons or Hy's or maybe CHEF go to the bottom of the tower and see what Ruth's Chris Steak Houseis serving. My steak was absolute garbage and insulting. I will complain here but Guess what IT WAS COOKED RARE! WHOOO! You cooked a minute steak rare! Bent me over and stuck it to me for $175.00. Guess what Sky 360 that absolute rip off is about to cascade through social media and I will tell you now I will never ever be back! Pay for the view? What an absolute rip off! read more

I think that the only saving grace for the restaurant is the fantastic view if gives customers. It is possibly one of the most over-priced meals I have ever had. I don't mind paying a bit extra as obviously you are paying for the view, but there is no reason to serve up sub-standard food that can easily remedied with a couple of changes. I had the bison with vegetables and the peanut butter jelly cheesecake for dessert. The bison itself was actually quite good, but the vegetables were absolutely abysmal. There were severely under-cooked and had very little flavor. If these vegetables were cooked and seasoned properly it would have immensely improved the meal, but instead made it a very disappointing experience considering the price. The dessert sounded very nice on the menu, but the execution was much to be desired. The cheesecake portion was very small and the presentation did not suit the restaurant at all. It was presented as a blob on the plate with cheap triangles of jelly in each corner of the plate. I think that if the restaurant improved just a few things such as getting side vegetables up to the same standard as their other food, as well as not trying so hard with the presentation (which obviously doesn't work so well), it could be much improved and make the experience worth the price tag. read more

I took in this restaurant hoping it would be as exciting as the tower attraction... not even close. Don't waste your time or money. The only thing good was the wine, and even that was overpriced for their selections. read more

We visited Sky 360 with a group of friends (adults and kids) for Sunday brunch and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We all enjoyed our meals, great service, fantastic views, and it was a real treat for the kids to watch as our vantage point changed constantly, and point out familiar landmarks. They had a blast! Actually, we all did, but the kids were just that much more exuberant about it!! :-) After our meal, we went upstairs to the viewing area and took some time to enjoy the sunshine and the scenery. Not a cheap family outing, but definitely worth a splurge! read more

The food is sub par - i think McDonalds might be better - at least McDonalds is consistent. Service mediocre food was borderline disgusting - why can't they do better in a nice location as this. I ordered the Wellington which was basically a hamburger wrapped in flat phyllo for $32... the desert must be prebought. I wish to never return! read more

Took my friends from Toronto to Sky 360 and Calgary Tower for lunch and the view. The View is nice like always. Food wise, we are satisfied. However, the server is kind of pushy when we order. Oh, and the red velvet cake is the biggest reason I picked this place. It is as good as I remember from last visit. A must try for those who like dessert. read more

My family from England flew into Calgary and only had a day to visit. We decided we could give them a tour of Calgary and dine at the same time. It was a fantastic view and the food was delicious quick and well prepared. Service was fantastic !so pleased server took pictures of all of us at the table too. I will definitely recommend it to anyone . read more

Excellent food! No complaints. Didn't like the 18% tip mandatory for a party of 6 and up. I had to pay $80! Couldn't use my prepaid gift cards either because the manager was trying to request the full amount. Also have a Happy Meal before you go. Portions are tiny. read more

I went to Sky 360 realizing that I would need to pay more for the view. The view was excellent, the service great, the food was horrible. My friend and I ordered the crab cakes and the fish and chips. The crab cakes were the worst crab cakes I have ever tasted. I don't think there was actually crab in them. It tasted like mainly bread. It was also overcooked and extremely dry. The fish were two tiny cylinder shapes pieces of fish that had been so overcooked the fish inside was extremely dry. My friend loved the tartar sauce that came with fish. The chips were good, nice and crispy, but some may have found them overcooked. As mentioned we had GREAT service. Our server was very personable ad made sure we had what we needed. A nearby server also went out of his way to ensure we had all we needed. read more

The atmosphere and smell of food is amazing. However I'm not impressed that we ordered a bottle of wine and instead got a bottle that was almost double the cost and barely given the chance to see the bottle before it was opened. Also the vegetable sides sound more amazing on the menu than they really are, unfortunately. read more

For a place that has an amazing view of the city, you'd expect food and service to be outstanding, but nope, it is ever so plain and mediocre. However, I still have hopes for this place. read more

We took my grandparents here for dinner, as it had been about 15 yrs since our last visit. Service was good, but the food was disappointing and mediocre at best, especially for the price. I had the tuna, which came properly cooked, but had no seasoning, not even salt & pepper; the bland wasabi spaetzel couldn't make up for it, and the side squash was both over- and under-cooked depending on each individual piece on the plate. The rest of our party had the halibut special; again, the fish was cooked perfectly but was bland, and the starch on the plate was rock-hard friend chunks of bread - no salad, veg, or potato - very strange choice. The thing that upset me most, however, was that the waitress overheard us saying that my mom's birthday was coming up, so she brought out an ice cream without us asking or mentioning the birthday directly to her. It was a nice gesture, but my mom is lactose intolerant so she couldn't eat it (Grandpa took care of it for her, so we did eat it). Then, when I got the bill at the end of the night, I noticed we were charged for it! Pretty bad service to charge your guests for a dessert they didn't ask for. One positive is that the bourbon vanilla cheesecake was divine, and the view is obviously great. Pick up a free headset before the elevator ride to learn lots of interesting things about Calgary, but just pay the $18 fee and skip the expensive meal. read more

325$$ for an awful experience. There was a party of 6 of us going out to celebrate a birthday and a retirement. Two of the guests in our party (my parents) were from Ontario. We wanted an amazing experience with great views and amazing food however everyone left extremely disappointed. The furnishings were Older and worn, the seat cousins were cracked and need recovering and the floor could use some work due to some of the pieces of carpet floor tiles missing. Moving on to dinner... I was given dirty cutlery to start which I understand can happen but when the bill was this much I expect more. 2 people in our party ordered their steak medium and wheb our food came and they cut in to it, it was very clearly rare. We sent the 2 dinners back and were told that they would be right back with new plates. 20 minutes later the steaks come back and we cut into it and this time they were blue. It took 20 mins to send out a basically raw steak. At this point the manager came over and offered an apology and said he would cover the bill for the 2 meals. That was how he was going to compensate us for the issues. When we mentioned them covering the drinks he said "I'll think about it" and then walked away. We all found this to be arrogant and rude. 10 mins later the plates come out and finally the steaks are cooked properly but the rest is the table is now finished eating. The chef never came out and apologized and the manager offered no explanation as to why it took 20 mins to send barely cooked steaks out of his kitchen. At the end of the night they paid for 3 drinks and the 2 meals. Our bill was still 325.00$ and I am mortified that we went to such a "fancy" place and had such an awful experience. The chef and manager had an opportunity to turn this situation around but we were just a number on their reservation list that night and that's exactly how we were treated. I do NOT recommend this restaurant to anyone and I will not be going back here ever. Save your money.. you will Have a better experience buying McDonald's and taking it up to the observation deck yourself. read more

We went in and made a lunch reservation that morning and they gave us a 2:00pm time slot. The tower was right across the street from my hotel and my elevator was slow so I ran across the street arriving at 2:05. They would not seat us! Talk about brutal. They were unbelievably rude. I cannot recommend this restaurant nor the service. I would advise others to skip the sky tower if your trying to enjoy Calgary. read more

You are paying (at a premium) for the view, not the food or service. Ordered the Alberta Ribeye; I'm guessing that the steak was let to rest longer than it should be because it was barely lukewarm (or my waiter just forgot to bring it out - hopefully the former), and as mentioned in other comments, the mashed potato was cold and really, really dry. I read through the comments before coming here though so I expected this to happen. I'd recommend visiting for once to check it off the bucket list, personally I wouldn't come here a second time because the price cannot justify the quality of food you get. read more

Ordered gift card on line. More than a month later (after two efforts to sort it out--no response either time), I opened a paypal dispute to get my money back. Never got a response but the card eventually arrived (five weeks later). Really crappy customer service. read more

Took a business colleague from Houston up the tower last night hoping to wow her with a great Calgary experience. The view is fabulous and the service very attentive and obviously well trained. The food ranges from OK to good but seems to be over priced given the selection and quality of ingredients. The price of admission is included with the reservation and clearly built into the prices. The décor is getting tired, the chairs are stained and not as bright and fresh looking as a few years ago when renovated. What was truly awful and frankly embarrassing to me with my out of town guest was the state of the washrooms. They were dirty, broken down and lacking in supplies. I expected a lot better from what is advertised as a up scale restaurant. I thought I was at a truck stop for a minute when I first walked in. I won't go back until I hear about a renovation. read more

We went to the Sky 360 for our 24th Anniversary and were very under-impressed. The view is incredible but the food was bland and overcooked. The presentation was boring and entirely forgettable. Then for our anniversary they brought us a complimentary spoonful of vanilla ice cream! When we mentioned our feelings to the manager he said " I wish there was something I could do about it." and then charged us full price and walked away! Not somewhere we will visit again if we're looking to celebrate a special occasion or enjoy great food. Very disappointing. read more

Great view! They offered us a great seat as it was my wife's first time in Calgary. The food was good. Reading other reviews I shall say it depends what you order. Me & my wife ordered Halibut & Arctic char, both were good (not wow). I ordered Bogle Merlot, liked it! Staff were friendly! Perfect for a special night! read more

I love the 360! The views, the service, the ambiance ... it is all good. My only comment would be to offer one or two simpler items for the teenagers. My 12-year-old was allowed to order off of the kids menu, but my other two teenagers were not thrilled with the lack of selection for them. They picked at their meals and barely ate anything. On the plus side, it was my daughter's 16th birthday and, even though there was a plating fee per person, the staff graciously took my custom cake, put candles on it and brought it out at the appropriate time. Thanks everyone! read more

I was surprised that this restaurant does not give complimentary bread or mints.....even the Keg does this...the bread we bought was tasteless and hard. The black girl with the ugly pink sweater on was rude and gave us dirty looks.....the guy with tight blue pants and white shirt with a tie ran around giving high fives to staff...he didn't crack a smile either. Shitty service and the dinner was NOT worth what we paid-close to $200. We will def bring our kids to the tower but not the restaurant. read more
