a Mexican, I can assure you that it's one of the best restaurants I've eaten at in Canada! There are many Mexican restaurants here in Calgary, but few have the traditional flavor of Mexican cuisine! To this day, Milpa is my favorite restaurant! I ate Pulpo Zarandeado, Tostada de salmón (dont remember the name exactly) and Chefs Horchata… it was delicious 1000/10","rating":{"food":5,"service":5,"ambience":5,"value":3,"noise":"QUIET","overall":5,"__typename":"ReviewRating"},"user":{"numOfApprovedReviews":2,"nickname":"Alejandra","metro":{"metroId":199,"displayName":"Unspecified","__typename":"Metro"},"initials":"A","isVip":null,"isLoggedInUser":false,"profileColor":"MUSTARD","profilePhoto":{"photoBySize":{"xsmall":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/xsmall/1/76232584.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"__typename":"PhotoSizes"},"__typename":"PublicDinerProfilePhoto"},"__typename":"ReviewUser"},"helpfulness":{"up":0,"down":0,"score":0,"__typename":"ReviewHelpfulness"},"publicRestaurantReply":null,"submittedDateTime":"2025-04-29T02:38:20Z","dinedDateTime":"2025-04-27T16:00:00-06:00","type":"OPENTABLEVERIFIED","fromPreviousConcept":false,"highlight":null,"photos":[{"photoId":"77142046","type":null,"photoMetaData":{"title":null,"source":"Diner","creator":"OpenTable","timestamp":"2025-04-29T02:38:29Z","photoBySize":{"small":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/small/1/77142046.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"medium":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/medium/1/77142046.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"xlarge":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/xlarge/1/77142046.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"wideMedium":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/wide-medium/1/77142046.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"wideLarge":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/wide-large/1/77142046.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"__typename":"PhotoSizes"},"__typename":"PhotoMetadata"},"caption":"Pulpo Zarandeado","showCaption":true,"__typename":"ReviewPhoto"},{"photoId":"77142051","type":null,"photoMetaData":{"title":null,"source":"Diner","creator":"OpenTable","timestamp":"2025-04-29T02:38:37Z","photoBySize":{"small":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/small/1/77142051.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"medium":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/medium/1/77142051.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"xlarge":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/xlarge/1/77142051.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"wideMedium":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/wide-medium/1/77142051.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"wideLarge":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/wide-large/1/77142051.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"__typename":"PhotoSizes"},"__typename":"PhotoMetadata"},"caption":"Tostada de Salmón","showCaption":true,"__typename":"ReviewPhoto"}],"__typename":"ReviewSearchResult"},{"reviewId":"OT-1327384-9695-160230150406","text":"Service was very poor.

As a Mexican, I can assure you that it's one of the best restaurants I've eaten at in Canada! There are many Mexican restaurants here in Calgary, but few have the traditional flavor of Mexican cuisine! To this day, Milpa is my favorite restaurant! I ate Pulpo Zarandeado, Tostada de salmón (dont remember the name exactly) and Chefs Horchata… it was delicious 1000/10

Service was very poor. Waited more than 5 minutes after being seated before the waitress even came to our table. Had to ask 3 different people and waited over 10 minutes just to get an extra plate of tortilla chips. Constantly felt that our waitress was avoiding eye contact with our table and we had go out of our way to flag her down even though she walked past us many times.
Food overall was fine, but nothing to go out of your way for. Chicken taco was decent, ceviche was good and the steak machete was disappointing.
Wouldn't visit again.

Beautiful interior. Food was very good as well the Chicharrón & Guac was fantastic! Rated 4 stars rather than 5 due to a mix up with our order. The server made sure to rectify the mistake and offered a gesture to make up for the mistake. I am looking forward to coming back in April with some amazing women from my entrepreneur network.

Food was amazing but the service was definitely slow. It took about 10-15 minutes from when we were seated to when the server asked what we wanted to drink. Our first course came before our drinks did. We asked for things and never got them. Overall the experience was good with the food and whatnot but just not stellar.
