Excellent atmosphere, large separate bar and nice dining area. This is a beautiful restaurant interior wise and I found the servers and service to be friendly and attentive. Now on to the food.
We were very surprised at how empty it was on a Saturday night however after dining it may have given us the clue.
The food does not match either the service or funky surroundings, bland and somewhat overpriced. We both ordered chicken dishes, $17 & $19, the barbecued breast is just sauce brushed on a breast, comes with coleslaw and beans. The 2nd dish was $19, breast with a bit of veg plus goat cheese on top, plus beans, it was just OK, the fries are like Mcdonalds - not good.
So suffice to say, beautiful restaurant, but the food is boring and inconsistent with the prices being charged.

Was expecting a nice French restaurant, what I got was a extremely loud pub type venue with extraordinary prices and sub par food.
Couple that with sitting at the back of the restaurant in what felt like a storage room, 30 minute wait for drinks, Beer Chicken @ $24 that did not include any ingredients listed on the menu, other than 2 small drumsticks, $28 6 oz steak that was "chewy" and unremarkable. Small portions badly prepared.
Pretentious overpriced food and service that is lacking. Go someplace else.

I had not heard of this restaurant prior to purchasing a special dining coupon from Dealfind, I was surprised to see it located in the old La Caille on the Bow location in downtown Calgary.
What can I say, beautiful location, the service matched the food for top quality, the ample portions was absolutely delicious from starter to desert.
The ambiance is quite romantic with subtle lighting and music even though the restaurant is a good size. Oceana prices are the standard for an upscale restaurant but reasonable when you consider the location, service and menu.
We look forward to going again and again.

This dental clinic is wonderful, I have been to both Dr. Yost and Dr. Prichard and found them to be equally professional, kind and of course, gentle, got to have gentle for us white knuckle patients.
I really like the fact that they take the time to educate you on the "reasons" of the specific dental care. I received a call after my session with them "just checking" up on me, which I really appreciated. They make you feel comfortable.
Located in the community of Douglasdale Estates they are excellent family dentists for both young and old alike.

We have purchased 2 homes with this agent and cannot say enough nice things about him.
He has needed the patience of a saint to deal with us and our many changes of heart, however his good nature and patience never failed. He is professional and his many years of experience helped us make the right decision each time.
One thing we really appreciated was his honesty. Buying or selling, Jim is definitely who we like to call !

After driving an Audi, Benz and Infiniti I would have to say that Lexus of Calgary is the cream of the crop for their superb customer service. Simply wonderful vehicles, we have owned the LX and the ES, both were great. They treat you and your vehicle like a VIP, long after purchase.

Certified herbalist Joann loves what she does and it shows in her products from herbal teas to face creams. I have tried the digestive teas and the distress skin cream and really like the quality, knowing it is certified organic is great. The fresh herbs and spices are awesome. 5 Star for sure!
