    Ten Foot Henry is my favourite restaurant in Calgary and has been consistently for years!! My favourite dish of the night was the new “marinated beets” with mama ghanoush, salted ricotta (I omitted due to dairy allergy) & cured zucchini - A true chefs kiss/honourable mention to this extraordinary explosion of flavours, vivid colours and complimentary textures which paired superb with my delightful blueberry roiboos tea! Thank you all as always for the exceptional hospitality, service & care this Valentine’s Day weekend!! Much love & appreciation, Sam

    We recently celebrated our anniversary at The Keg, and it was an unforgettable experience! The restaurant has such romantic vibes, making it the perfect spot for a special occasion. We ordered steak with lobster, and my husband had steak—both were cooked to perfection and tasted absolutely delicious. A big thank you to our server, Kevin, who was incredibly friendly and attentive. His excellent service made our evening even more special. To make our celebration even sweeter, The Keg surprised us with a complimentary dessert to mark our anniversary. It was such a thoughtful gesture, and we truly appreciated it. Thank you, The Keg, for the amazing food, romantic ambiance, and top-notch service. We will definitely be returning!

    Wow, Wow, Wow. Our first visit to the fabulous steak house and it will not be our last. The best Filet. The sides are so generous and delicious. Particularly loved the Fingerling potato. Steaks were perfectly seasoned and the bearnaise sauce was generous enough for two. Drinks were excellent and the service was 5 stars. I cannot thank you enough for making our Valentine's Day so fun and memorable.
