YYC Eats ~ My Favorite Restaurants in Calgary

Calgary's culinary scene just keeps getting better and better! While some of these are still at the top of my list, I have added a couple more favourite places to fill your tummy and get your drink on.

The "new" Anju


Anju is not the quiet little family run restaurant that it used to be, it is now the trendy new hot spot on the corner of 17th ave and 4th street. One thing hasn't changed and that's chef + owner Roy Oh and his amazingly delicious Korean inspired food.

~ brussel sprout
~ crispy tofu
~ spicy salmon tacos
~ oxtail tortellini




Chef Michael Nobel and his team lead by Dave Singleton have done it again, reviving the historic National Hotel in Inglewood. Turning it into a cozy hot spot with classic charm and tasty treats.

~ charred octopus, avocado
~ brown butter glazed gnocchetti
~ spaghetti with lobster
~ selection of desserts




Still a favorite, this calming, soft lit oasis tucked away in an obscure location in the cities southeast delivers a contemporary zen dinning experience that is top notch.

~ hummus 
~ truffle gnocchi
~ crab arancini
~ beef tenderloin




Rodney's has transformed this huge space that has normally housed night clubs into a 300 seat seafood lovers dream. All the seaside charm you're used to here in the prairies. 

~ New England clam chowder
~ bison tartare
~ oyster slap jack

Cheers!
