Avenue 16 Kitchen & Bar - Calgary

Food was good, though the portions were quite small.

We used to love this restaurant. Their butter chicken was the best ever! However, during our recent takeout order, it seems like there is a new chef or they changed the recipe. We were greatly disappointed as the dish was watered down in both texture and flavor. It's such a shame.

I had breakfast here because we stayed at the hotel. The buffet looked good but I chose something unique from the menu (cooked salmon and capers on an English muffin with poached eggs) never had it before and it was amazing! Service was exceptional. It was a great relaxing start to the day. What a nice find. Breakfast hours aren’t posted but they are from 06:30 to 10:30 bye the way.

I stopped in to have a quick bite while my wife was having a massage at the spa.The decor was nice. However, there was no one at the door to greet you. The lounge area isn't equipped for disabled people as every table is raised, so I had to sit in the restaurant side.The first thing, I noticed was there was only a handful (maybe 3 couples) in the entire restaurant. The staff were sitting at a table in conversation, given that it was slow, ok.When I sat at the table, I noticed it was kind of sticky, as though the same cloth is used on every table without being rinsed in between. And the upholstery on the chairs need to be renewed.During my hour long visit, I only had one staff member check on me at the beginning, and then I never saw them again. In fact, I had to hunt someone down to get my bill.The food is excellent, no doubt. But the customer service could use an improvement in attentiveness, though they were polite.

Came in for a what appeared to be a good lunch. Ordered a cheese burger and when I tried to bite into it I couldn’t. It was extremely chewy and slightly undercooked. The pasta that my friend ordered was also undercooked slightly. Also the server took awhile to come see us at times even when there was only 2 or 3 other tables busy in the restaurant. I would not recommend the cheeseburger or pasta, maybe even just avoid the restaurant in general.
