This restaurant is a short 5 minute walk from our house and we have enjoyed our experiences here. The food is good and the staff (for the most part) are friendly and efficient. The ambiance of the restaurant is nice and relaxed and it seems to be a popular spot for locals as we have seen familiar faces when we have visited. It's nice to have a place close enough to walk to with good food and good service. We will definitely continue to patronize this place. read more

Full transparency, my friends love this place, as such we'll continue to return and I'll hope my opinion changes. To start, The Park is a beautiful, huge establishment. It wasn't that busy, but the host appeared to be both serving and seating, as such it took about 15 minutes to be seated in the restaurant side where only 2 other families were eating. From there it took our waitress another 10 to see us. It shouldn't take that long when not busy. From there, our table of 6 ordered appetizers and mains. Our waitress struggled to get our order amendments and wasn't entirely friendly. I have to say though, she knew the GF options well. The food, while fairly good, came out incorrect for 2/6 mains. Mine was missing the chicken entirely, while another had the wrong side dish. We all ate what we got though and were fairly happy. I liked that I could share appetizers with everyone for once and really impressed at how much could be made gluten free. Most of my friends have their established favorites, so maybe as we continue to go I'll find one I really like and that's done well too. read more

The food was fantastic. We have gone for brunch and dinner. Both times food was great. Quality was good. Custeromer service was awesome. Prime rib sandwich was so yummy.avacado eggs/ toast was really really good. The breakfast portion was on the smaller side but was yummy. read more

Well been here a few times each time the food has gotten more pricey and the size and taste smaller and worst. We were sat by the window around the edge this made it hard to hear the server. So no clue as to her name or hear anything she said about the special. The noise level was at the point I could hardly hear my wife across from me. They have removed the Covid barriers between the tables as such the noise level has risen ten fold. As we have family that likes to eat here we will be back for that but any other time it will be pass the park and find better food at better prices. read more

We had fish and chips for two of us and enjoyed it . Lots to eat. Wife had salmon and it was also very good. Cooked as requested. It was a little noisy but ok. read more

Food and service were really good. Waitress checked in with our table often enough and was very pleasant. We all ordered a variety of food and everyone enjoyed their meal. One of our group was gluten free and they have numerous options which are clearly marked on the menu. So that was much appreciated. Would go again for sure read more

We came to the restaurant to give it another go after not been here for a year or so. My wife order the butter chicken but instead I having the rice she requested vegetables. My son ordered the Chicken burger with fries and I ordered the prime rib special! My wife's order came, with rice and 4 pieces of chicken! Not much point having a waitress if she is not going to take notice of what the customer is requesting. my son couldn't finish his burger as it was so dry he left half of it on the plate. My prime rib was so full of fat that I couldn't believe it . We will be crossing this restaurant off our list of places to dine at pretty poor experience all round. Seem to be par for the course in Calgary! read more

My team came here for Christmas lunch and it was fairly busy on a Thursday. The pricing seemed pretty standard and on par with Milestones or Joey's. Atmosphere was similar as well. I ordered the Fresno burger which came with goats cheese, balsamic cream, tzatziki, bruschetta and greens, and I added sauteed mushrooms. The patty was homemade but to be honest, I found it a bit tough. I'm typically one who prefers a higher meat to bread ratio, but this was possibly too much meat for me. Overall the burger was pretty heavy and rich, despite the freshness of the bruschetta. I would suggest a little less goats cheese and a less tough and slightly thinner patty. I loved the brioche bun! I had this with a French onion soup coz apparently I just can't say no to them! It was a heavier French onion with lots of bread and cheese and less broth, but it was tasty. I do prefer a lighter broth and more of it, personally. As always though, this soup is the bestower of bad breath so beware! Service was very good. I would give the food a 3.5/5 and service was a 4.5/5 read more

We go there for half price wine on Wednesday. We'd go to other spots, but our server Wendy is the best. She makes our experience so enjoyable - so nice to go to a place and have a regular server who knows you, not very common in today's economy. We share the baked brie and the fish and chips. The food is good, the server fantastic and the wine flows like, well, wine. Great time all around. We've dined at our "local" for many, many years and will continue. read more

Was here on family day for an early dinner. We got a booth at the back of the restaurant. I ordered a steak sandwich, my wife a capri salad. My two boys ate a pizza and wings. The food took quite a while to come out, about 25 min. My steak sandwich was small for the almost $20 price tag. No complaints about the pizza or wings. My wife's salad was okay, but didn't come with the balsamic vinegar it was supposed to. I wasn't really impressed with the food here. I like the other chain restaurants like Earl's or Milestones. read more

If you're coming here for a lunch during the week, make a reservation! Rookie move on my part. The actual space is huge when you look at both the bar and restaurant side. Tons of room, but also tons of local businesses in the area that pick this as their lunch spot. So resos = good idea. We needed a table for four, and were sat at the bar while we had our 20 min wait. Great beer and wine selection, and I was pretty pleased that they had guinness and strongbow on tap. Crown floats all day! When we finally got sat we were given one menu for the four of us. We asked for three more, and the server forgot about both our drinks and the menus for about 15 minutes. She came back with the drinks after literally saying, "Oh, Shit." as she walked by haha, and when she returned we again asked for menus. She forgot again and 10 minutes later asked if we were ready to order. Nope. Still don't have menus, miss... We asked for food recommendations and her response was "I don't really know..I've only worked here for 2 months, so I'm not sure what's good." Umm..2 months? Okay.. We ended up ordering the baked brie and the spring rolls for our appetizer. The spring rolls were RIDICULOUS. I could eat those every day. The brie was super small and underwhelming. My sister in law and I had the quesadillas, which were honestly just weird...They had tortilla chips baked into the quesadillas, so had this weird soggy corn flavour, and were served with a sweet bbq sauce rather than salsa and sour cream. My brother had ordered the mushroom pizza which was also underwhelming. Super doughy, not very crispy. And mom had the fish and chips were actually really good. Atmosphere wise? London pub meets flowery garden print booths...It was a bit bizarre, but it works for them I guess. Anyway, not the best food, not the best service, but good for a drink or two! read more

The Park Kitchen & Bar - Gimme gimme gimme gimme - Burgers Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

Brought my Best Half here for lunch on Saturday. Having said this, a little back story is necessary: we did a proverbial "coin flip" between Park and OJs which share the same parking lot. OJs actually was the choice for no other reason than the "flip." We entered OJs, were greeted and invited to sit anywhere. We chose a table along the windows in clear view of the bar and waited....................(20 min). The kicker was a couple that came in well after us was served. Left, still unacknowledged. I mean I am not "pretty," but I am a decent human being. Anway, we walked over to Park. Entered Park, where we were greeted and invited to sit anywhere. The hostess followed us with menus and then our server took our drink order and was back before we even opened the menus. To be fair, there was very few customers but it was also1:30 pm. I ordered the Sumo Burger with fries and Best Half ordered Butter Chicken. Took a bit for the food to arrive, which gave us time for conversation without mouths full. When the food did arrive it was fresh and hot. The Sumo was tasty, but the patty seemed a little dried out. The Butter Chicken was very nice (tasted good too)! Nothing worse than cheeky Butter Chicken! I would come back. It is a nice spot for conversation and a meal! I think this establishment is possibly quiet on weekends as it is in the heart of Quarry Park which houses all kinds of large office business, so weekdays are busy. Sidenote: I also noticed a sign advertising decent happy hour deals on pints. read more

The ambiance, service and food are exceptional. For a fun night out with friends or family, or a special occasion, the Park goes the extra steps to make our experience stress free and wanting to return for more. read more

This place is perfect. Our food took a while to come, as good food usually does, but it was worth the wait. 8 oz tenderloin medium ... perfect. Steak salad ... perfect. Lobster mac and cheese ... perfect. Desserts ... Perfect. Service .. perfect. Decor .. perfect. Even the washrooms are perfect. Not sure why the average rating on Yelp today is only three stars. I've been to three-star restaurants. This is not one of them. read more

This review is simply for the patio! It is comfortable nicely appointed with a great street view in a modern neighborhood. Enjoy a decent selection of wines or cocktails in the late day west facing sun. read more

The Ahi Tuna and Poke bowl were great. Good location and servers are great. We had our kids with us and they ate free on Tuesday which was a nice surprise. Reasonable prices. We went a bit early for dinner at 4 pm without a reservation and it was easy to get a seat. They have a nice patio that would be great to try out on another visit when the weather is nicer. read more

Had my wedding here. Food was ridiculously good especially the wings and Mac and cheese. And I don't like Mac and cheese. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Played the bagpipes and danced all night. Thank you The Park staff. You made it a very special day. read more

Came here for my birthday. Ahi tuna tacos were good but too much green not enough fish ratio. Couldn't taste the lobster in the burger. Service was good. Restaurant is quite nice. read more

Food quality was very mediocre. Expected pub food, but this was sub-par. A competitor with the same prices, such as Earl's, has much better food. On the plus side, the service was excellent. Our waitress was very attentive to our needs and was so quick, considering how busy the restaurant was on a Friday night! read more

Ordered pick up, during COVID, various items for 4 people. Took an hour for food to be prepared. All agreed, mediocre at best, definitely not worth the money. Would usually give a place a second chance, not this place. Maybe ok dining in, but other reviews would suggest not. read more

I've been to this place numerous times. Prices are decent and the food is for the most part great. Poutine is awesome, great burgers/steaks, wife loved the Mac and cheese. Service has always been great and the decor is very nice. Highly recommend. read more

We used to frequent a less-than-good chain restaurant nearby because they were kid friendly and we have a 3-year-old. Now that we've found The Park, that other place won't be seeing us again. They give out crayons and a kid's activity sheet/menu, and try to seat families with small children in the same area (away from "normal" people), which is great. But, unlike certain other places, the food at The Park is actually good and not crazy expensive. Kind of the typical menu of burgers, pizza, sandwiches, pasta, etc but well-made and tasty. The decor is nice and the servers are friendly and attentive. There's really nothing to complain about, it's a great option when you're looking for a decent meal and don't want to annoy people with your kid. read more

I came here with high expectations as the Canadian Celiac society recognizes this an astonishing restaurant, unfortunately I definitely didn't leave satisfied. My boyfriend and I had ordered french onion soup, the soup was good but the cheese in it was not at all melted and was just a slab of cheese in my soup. I had to swirl it for about 2 minutes in order for it to melt. My boyfriend had ordered the ginger beef appetizer and when it came out they said " be careful the plates might be hot". So when my boyfriend began to dig in thinking the food was warm. The food was cold and the chicken was not warm whatsoever. We didn't want to bother the servers as they said they were extremely busy and flustered so we just took the food home to reheat for that night. Unfortunately this is why I have to give it 2 stars. Sorry but don't think I will be coming back :/ read more

This restaurant opened in place of another restaurant that recently closed. I have to wonder if it is the same restaurant under a different name. The decor didn't change much and the service and food sure as heck didn't improve. The first thing you notice is the incredibly long wait for anything. We sat down at noon and we didn't receive our food until about 1pm. We were here on our lunch break. Since Quarry Park, is basically nothing but office buildings, you would think that they would know their clientele and be able to work with that. Nope. I saw a number of other tables wait a long time for everything. Second, their food is terrible and cheap tasting. I had the chicken pasta. It tasted like they got the cheapest bargain brand canned sauces and pasta they could find. I will definitely not be returning. read more

Meh. Went for wing night. Staff is always friendly and the place is rarely busy. Chicken wings were not cooked well. They weren't uncooked, but were not crispy either. Couldn't eat the last 2, wierdly chewy and just couldn't swallow it. Told the waitress, they offered to replace it, but at that point I was feeling grossed out. Menu is not as innovative as you would hope. Food is adequate, price is high. read more

Chicken was over cooked, Ceaser salad was dry, and the fish was greasy The service was slow and the menu is overpriced read more

I wasn't wowed by these guys to be honest. The staff and atmosphere are great, but they seem like they're still figuring out how to run a restaurant. The bar has a few great local beers on tap. The ones I had were very fresh and delicious so nothing negative there. Tried an old fashioned and was quite disappointed. While not as terrible as the keg, they certainly aren't going to be my first choice for a cocktail. Main meals were interesting. The girlfriend got the pulled pork with mac and cheese. It came out pretty good to be fair. I can't say there is much I would change. I got the pene and it was terrible. Very soupy and had broken bones in it. They decided to use shredded chicken instead of grilling it, a mistake in my books. I'd like to note that the person previously that said their dishes are bland want too far off base. It seems as through they're trying to let the ingredients shine through and not quite nailing it. Ill give them another shot in a few months when they've had a chance to get into the swing of things. Not a place that I would frequent without significant improvement. read more

While we had a great experience here, I would classify this place as an upscale Apple Bees. We had the Chilled Shrimp Bruschetta to start. It was tasty but it was lacking a little zest - like balsamic vinegar. Also, we thought that the shrimp should have been warm. Following the appetizer, I had the famous Surf and Turf burger and my boyfriend had the Tenderloin. For the price, the tenderloin shouldn't have been as tough. It was great seasoning, however it wasn't integrated with the meat well and lacked in the end. The burger with the sweet potato fries was very good, although I had a hard time picking out the lobster. The hamburger meat was amazing and I felt that it over powered the lobster. For dessert, we had the ganache - amazing! Best dessert we've had in a while. Overall, the experience was good. The service was prompt, although at times it didn't feel sincere. The hostess had a great personality and treated us great, but our server wasn't 'in-it-to-win-it'. read more

Went there with collegues for a business lunch and it was a great choice. While the hostess was attentive she also knew when to leave us along to carry on with ourr discussions. The food was good with a nice variety of options and everyone enjoyed their meal. I would definitely return. Great variety for their side items too. Loved how large and opent he restaurant is and it would be great with a bigger group of people. Only complaint was that 2 of us ordered the panini special and we were not told that it was out but were just brought the panini that was on the menu - still good but woul dhvae like to be told. read more

This place sucks. Terrible service. Server forgot about our appetizer and after asking about it she completely avoided our table. My friend and I waited for over 45 minutes for our bill because we needed to leave, but I had to go up to her and ask for it. Also the margaritas we ordered were so incredibly salty could barely drink it. Safe to say we are not coming back. read more

The Park Kitchen & Bar - My terrible salty "mango" margarita - Burgers Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

The Park hosted a vegan night in Aug. I was so excited there are not enough places in Calgary doing this. This was great as if fell on my husband birthday. So I pre-bough 5 tickets for my family weeks in advice and we were really excited about this. Well, this ended up being such a disappointment, they oversold and under delivered. Dinner took over 2 hours. As I mother with two young kids dinner cant take 2 + hours long. But I was told that we would get our food right away and not to worry. My kids growing hungrier and hungrier as we all waited for dinner. Not only did the food take forever but they started making their portions smaller. Instead of getting 3-4 for spanakopita triangles our table got 2. This was all over Instagram how the portions should have been and what we ended up getting. Instead of taken care of the tables the paid for tickets weeks earlier, they welcomed more an more customer in that they weren't able to handle or take care of. Even getting a top up on our drinks were a struggle. The waitress couldn't handle their tables. We complain to management, they called an said they were going to do it again and comp our meal to make it up to us. This was a great idea and I would come back with an open mind and give them another try. But they never ended up doing it. I've phoned and followed up and it's always the next month, next month. After the last call, they just couldn't be bothered to call me back or credit any of the money back. One big disappointment Great concept but the restaurant and staff couldn't handle it. read more

Service was really good. They serve my favorite beer Wild Rose velvet fog. Food was ok - we had a chicken taco and a pulled pork one (the special) as well as the calamari. The chicken was not great - was very stringy and chewy, difficult to eat. Pulled park was good, as was the calamari. Nice atmosphere - great Windows all around. However, this is kinda pointless because they want you to close the blinds when the sun is shining. That's what happened to us and, frankly, it was annoying and really affected our enjoyment. That's what drew us to go there - being able to see daylight. Anyway, quite honestly, not sure we'd go back. read more

Nice staff, mediocre food, high prices for what you actually get. Has somewhat of a captive lunch crowd in Quarry Park, but frankly the quality and value is just not there. Had a burned burger and wilted salad, took forever to get initial service ( it was a lunch crowd, so there were a lot of tables filled, but it should still not take 15-20 minutes to see a server). Not on the top of the list for return visits. read more

Booked with Open table for Valentines Dinner. Asked for a table that was not drafty, booth or whatever. They stuck as at the two-up table in the middle of the restaurant. Seriously? Anyone read the request? Dinner was average - Fish n Chips was OK, the gravy they offered tasted like Creme of Mushroom soup - Worst ever. Ignored that ... Wife had Spaghetti - again - average,but not great. Their Special Dessert - Banana Split. SERIOUSLY the worst ever. The banana had to be cut with a steak knife. That is not how you do a candied banana - shoe leather at least looks and probably tastes like shoe leather. I digress ... Waitress tied her best, but I do mention that she told us up front she tried all the specials and they were excellent. Until of course the Banana split arrived for Dessert, she had not seen that one she tells me now. If she had, I'm sure she would not have so heartily recommended it. NOT up to PAR at the PARK. Not sure what their issues are, but they need to kick it up a notch before I'll ever go back there. Waste of time and money ... read more

We love slushy drinks on the patio. There is cute decor in and out and their tacos are great! Dress up a bit for this place.

The restaurant is fine but I was pretty upset when my party of 8 was asked to leave shortly after our meal because the restaurant had another reservation that was waiting for a table. That should be their problem, not mine. I drove from the far north west to attend a team building dinner and we had little to no time to actually do that after we were finished eating. Very unprofessional. I do not think that I will be coming back here again, ever. The manager and owner should be ashamed. read more

It was pretty decent and best of all, kids eat free on Tuesdays!! To our biggest surprise, the chicken fingers on the kids menu were really good, especially when they were free (usually you expect to see Dino nuggets). It's nice to find these types of places that have good food and the free kids special, makes going out much easier! read more
