James (Jim) Christenson
Category: Real Estate Agents |
    04/11/2009 |
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! |

Jacquelines Bistro
Category: Bistro |
    18/12/2009 |
Located in a strip mall in Willow Park. It is cosy with a handful of tables, the atmosphere is nice, we had Supper, the food is quite good with ample proportions.
Perhaps the only downside here is it is a bit pricey, so family dining with the kids could be expensive as well as lacking in kids menu choices. |

La Piccola Napoli Restaurant
Category: Italian |
    14/11/2009 |
| Great little Italian restaurant located in the Avenida Mall on Lake Fraser Drive SE. It is small and intimate and you should book ahead as the weekend is busy. Friday night we were treated to a guitar player who was wonderful and set the mood of the evening. Prices have not really changed over the years, neither has the menu, which is good if you are expecting your "favorite" dish. |

Basement Beauty
Category: Hair Stylist |

Hair Design by Erica is a "at home" salon stylist and for those of us living in the deep south, i.e. Douglasdale, it's a welcome addition to the over inflated salon prices we are subjected to these days.
Erica has been doing hair about 10 years, she is young, professional, listens to what you want and frankly her prices are cheaper across the board.
I had my long hair cut/styled (really picky 50+ year old) and was very pleased with the results and the price, the only kicker is she is only available evenings after 6 and weekends, still if you want to save a ton while getting salon quality and you live locally, you might want to try her. |

Oxy-Genie All Natural Carpet Cleaning
Category: Carpet & Rug Cleaners |
    15/04/2010 |
| Having used this company twice now I am convinced this is the best carpet cleaning company in Calgary, Ken the technician is professional, knowledgeable and meticulous in completing the job. A full 3 hours to clean my carpets is something I have not experienced for a long time. Price wise they are reasonable but service and quality exceeds anything I have had in a very long time. This is my 1st choice for carpets, five star for sure. |

The Fairmont Banff Springs
Category: Luxury Hotels |
    25/05/2010 |
If a day out in the Rocky Mountains and a spot of lunch is what you are craving, this magical Hotel in it's beautiful setting is well worth the 60 minute drive from Calgary.
The gorgeous castle like building built in 1887 simply takes your breath away and as you walk around the splendor of it's interior you feel a sense of something very special.
Lunch on the stone patio overlooking the valleys and snow capped Rockies will have you taking the camera out pronto because it does not matter where you look, it is beautiful. We had a light lunch, Burger/salad, $18 which was good but clearly you are paying for the location and history that you occupy. High Tea is just lovely with the same spectacular views and a treat for those who enjoy a delicious cup of tea and a selection of yummy finger sandwiches.
If you want to impress the out of town guests or simply treat yourself, this is a Must Do !! |

Lorne McGlynn
Category: Handymen |
    15/07/2010 |
Excellent service at an excellent price. Lorne's labour rate is $35 per hour, half the price of other small engine repair services.
I dropped off my lawn mower on a Thursday and it was ready on Saturday as promised.
For a tune up including spark plug, new oil and blade sharpening the total price was $47. Lorne also repaired a loose wheel at no extra charge. |
