The spicy potatoes and avocado chocolate pie were good, but nothing mind blowing.
Also pretty expensive for mediocre food wrapped in faux hipster veneer that doesn't use pricey ingredients. Our bill was ~80$ for this, feeding two people without alcohol.
I appreciate the need for some variety in the Calgary food scene, but once people see past the novelty this is a meh restaurant at best.

Well we had completely different experiences at Ten Foot Henry, so I will continue to rave about this restaurant and their food. Local ingredients, simple food with great flavours.
