DOPO, meaning 'after' in Italian, is an intimate dining experience in the lower level of Elizabeth Square in Marda Loop, Calgary. Inspired by D.O.P, its predecessor restaurant, DOPO has been reimagined by Executive Chef, David Leeder and Owner, Tony Migliarese. With strong opinions from Mamma Rose, of course.

Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
DOPO offers a charming and cozy atmosphere reminiscent of Italy, with "exceptional meal" experiences. Guests rave about the knowledgeable staff, especially Anthony, who "took incredible care" of patrons. The menu features standout dishes like the tiramisu and eggplant parmesan. Despite occasional noise and seating issues, the "food, service, and general vibe are amazing." A must-visit for a memorable dining experience.

    Food and service were amazing! The ricotta and tomato is a must have and finish your meal with Tiramisu- text the family and tell them how much you loved it (phone number on the menu). We’ll be back!

    Overall, food was good. Enjoyed the ambience of the space. The portions were more generous than I was anticipating! One thing to keep in mind is that there is a 1.75hr dining time, so we were rushed out earlier than we anticipated so that was the only disappointing surprise. We enjoyed our evening, and will be back again.

    Hi Anikka - we're glad to hear you enjoyed the food, portions, and our new space. We do have 1 hour 45 minute dining times for tables of two and it appears that we were a few minutes behind seating you for your 7:45pm reservation, seating you at 7:51. Your feedback has been passed on to our team and we're working on solutions to ensure everyone who books a reservation gets to enjoy their time in the restaurant to the fullest. On behalf of the team, we apologize for the end of your experience and do hope that we can see you again soon. Please reach out if you have any other concerns or feedback. Thank you!

    Really not sure about the hype around this place. All of our dishes were not great, and had very mediocre, or even poor, tastes, especially considering their extreme cost (and small portion sizes) on top of the insane difficulty of trying to get a reservation. I wouldn't recommend trying this place out even if it wasn't hard to get in, and honestly am sorry I even went because, seriously, the food is simply just not good, and honestly pushing the brink of being genuinely bad. Although the ambiance is quite neat, that alone can't make up for the food, price, and effort required. You might as well go to nearly any other Italian restaurant in Calgary for actual decent food at non-exorbitant rates.

    Just go here. Everything from the second you open the door, until you leave is absolutely perfect. Hospitality done right. Staff are knowledgeable and engaging, food is out of this world and the drinks curation here is second to none. Just go here.

    What an unbelievable gem tucked away in Marda Loop! Amazing ambiance from the moment you walk in. I tried the feature cocktail which was absolutely outstanding and the gnocchi was by far the best gnocchi we've ever had!

    So glad to hear you enjoyed your visit, Vishal. See you again soon!

    DOPO is one of the best restaurants I have dined at. Everything we ordered was exquisite, and the gnocchi was next level.
