Exceptional Service at SALTLIK to the queen that was hosting the private functions downstairs. My family and I were downstairs for a family get together and it was absolutely amazing. I recently had the pleasure of attending an event in the private room at SALTLIK, and I must say it was an unforgettable experience! The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the incredible lady who served us. From the moment we arrived, she embodied the essence of multitasking excellence. As our bartender, server, and hostess, she effortlessly juggled her many roles with grace and enthusiasm. Her warm and inviting demeanor made us feel right at home, and her attention to detail truly went above and beyond. She crafted delightful drinks that were not only perfectly mixed but also tailored to our individual tastes. It was clear that she took the time to get to know us, making personalized recommendations that enhanced our experience. Her ability to engage with guests while managing everything so seamlessly was nothing short of remarkable. Thanks to her dedication and exceptional service, our evening was filled with laughter and joy. It’s rare to encounter someone who excels in every aspect of their job, and she truly is a gem at SALTLIK. I highly recommend this venue for any event, and I can’t wait to return—hoping to see her again! Thank you for making our night so special!

Had a great meal prior to attending a play at the Arts Common. The manager was very friendly and attentive and came around to every table. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable as well. Some feedback to help improve, although not a big issue at all. Our water glasses were empty, and several of the staff, who were cleaning /setting tables, and avoiding any eye contact with the patrons, could have poured fresh water for everyone as other tables had also run out of water if they had looked around. A table beside us had water refilled, and if the staff member who poured the water had looked around to the tables directly beside, they could have refilled our glasses as well, without us having to ask. We did have to ask to get water, and service could be improved if everyone was looking out for that, and us not having to ask. Also when refilling water glasses, please bring the pitcher to the table, not the glasses to the pitcher stand.

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).

Steakhouse / mediterranean cuisine - good taste. A bit too much cheese on some dishes where it doesn’t belong IMO (eg carpaccio). Salmon was perfectly cooked though Service is very friendly and attentive…which come with according price tag
