Saltlik

予約しないで1人で行きましたが、テラス席を案内されました。予約はした方がベターです。 好きなテーブルを選んで座ってと言われたので、空いているテーブルが4人掛けしかなかったので、申し訳なく思いながら着席。 ステーキは付け合わせにマッシュルームを選択したが、かなり塩味が強く、喉が渇きました。 デザートにはアップルパイをオーダー。かなり満足度の高い食事になった。 スタッフの方も気さくで話しかけやすく、また訪問したいレストランです。

We ate at the Saltik on our last day of our trip in Canada. We really enjoyed the 8th ave area because it’s closed off to cars making it very easy to navigate. Our server Shalimar was incredibly knowledgeable of the menu and constantly attentive, asking us for drinks and refilling our glasses. I got the 7 oz sirloin medium rare, and my wife got the beef short ribs. The steak was cooked perfectly and is good; no sauce needed. And my wife’s short ribs were incredibly tender. For dessert we got sticky toffee pudding. Very rich and delicious. Drinks were also stellar. Their honeybee old fashioned is 10/10.

This restaurant was great for a casual bite. They elevated dishes that bring new tastes to your palate like the cheese cake with mango and coconut, probably one of the best cheesecakes I’ve had in my life. Burger was great and the onion soup was delicious. More important, I rarely have such great service, around 4 people asked if I needed anything, brought things over and my server even brought me a bag of ice since I had fallen just minutes before arriving. Highly recommend!

I was excited to try the tuna tartare, but it missed the mark. The tuna was cut into oversized chunks, served with basic triangle chips, and topped with raw cabbage and carrots that didn’t complement the dish. On top of that, there was way too much sauce, which overwhelmed the flavor of the fish. Great service and atmosphere, but this dish needs a bit more refinement.

Food was very good, waitress was amazing and welcoming. Gave us good recommendations for things to do. Manager came and welcomed us. Great overall.

The highlight of my experience - Pineapple Cut Calamari! The Saltlik was going to be our last meal in Calgary, so we wanted to go out on a high note. We had passed it several times while doing shopping and sightseeing in the downtown area. What really catches your eye is the Horse Sculpture on the side of the building. So very creative and interesting construction. The dining area is spacious and casual. They gave us a booth, which was okay, but in retrospective, a table would have been better for having a conversation with a party of four. We had made 7:00 reservations on a Monday night. Got seated right way. Our server did a great job getting us settled in with waters and menus. She did a great job the entire evening (thanks Jetta). For drinks we all decided on the special Sangria - very tasty. Lots of great sounding choices on the menu. The others in the party went with different salads, Caesar with Grilled Chicken, Roasted Mushroom Salad, and Farmhouse Greens. I was feeling like the odd-man-out, and ordered a couple of starters, the Calamari and Brussel Sprouts. While we waiting, they served us Cheddar Biscuits and butter. They were warm, and flavorful, but a bit on the dry side. The rest of the food came in not to long after. The salads were fresh and the portions were average size. The consensus was that they were "okay". Nobody was raving about their meals. I gave my meal mixed reviews. The Brussel Sprouts were not roasted as much as i would have liked. Normally an order get scarfed down, but not these. The Calamari that I ordered was tremendous. I was a bit confused as first by the shape and texture, which I asked our server about. She was very knowledgeable and told me about it being prepared Pineapple Cut. First time I had ever heard about this technique, which I researched once I got home. So much better than then other calamaris that I usually have. We saved room for dessert. We shared a Sticky Toffee Pudding, and the Molten Chocolate Cake. Those were both very good. The evening was nice. Wish some of the food items had been better. If we would come back to Calgary, we would give it another try (and of course get another serving of the calamari).

What an incredible evening. Jetta was absolutely incredible with great service and with a fantastic attitude. The food was absolutely to die for - the level of review was "orgasmic" I was moaning every bite & couldn’t put the fork down!! I went for my birthday dinner and holy smokes did the staff go above and beyond for myself and I was in absolute awe of all the things they did for my special day - now that is what I call going above and beyond for customers. Thank you guys again so much! I had an amazing time & certainly felt the love! Never been to a place that does so much for their customers it was definitely different and I will be back soon!!!!
