What about Sbarro? Three locations in the city in the event one is really busy.

Bookers is best on Sunday or Monday night, for all-you-can-eat crab or ribs.

Theres a place called 4th Spot on center street N. Great local food and reasonably priced. Nice casual atmosphere. Pulled pork poutine = win.

Variety yes, quality and value no.

I would love to take $20 and compare side by side, what you get at taste of Calgary vs. an entree at a decent resto.

I used to like taste of Calgary, but like the everything else Calgary, it is way overpriced for the portions you get. Even the quality is iffy.

Japanese Village. Particularly memorable for me because Theo Fricken Fleury was seated at the same table as our group.

Food is not too bad either

I've never been. Going this year for the first time. I'm thinking of it more as an "experience".... or it might end up being more of an experiment.
