    Wonderful service, not only from the server but from the whole front of house team. Very balanced and creative menu. Cocktails were also very well put together and all in all very reasonably priced for the quality of food. We had 3 starters and 2 mains and had a tough time picking a favourite! We will definitely return to sample more of the menu as we had a hard time choosing. Highly recommend.

    As mentioned on a previous post by another reviewer, not crazy about the surcharge prior to booking, however, there is a rationale. This is one of the most unique experiences I’ve ever had with food service. Great ambience and interaction by all staff. They really know the food and the taste of the food. More importantly, they are clearly educated about the food contents and taste, which demonstrates how much care and detail goes into their efforts. Five star service. The Brussel sprouts have to be tasted, and with the menu changing daily, it’s hard to describe how good the beets and Brie appetizer was in writing. My wife and I just discussed ordering four appetizers as our next meal, one at a time for the full flavour profile experience. Highly recommend. Will be back.

    Here’s a polished review you can use for KAMA in Calgary: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an amazing dining experience at KAMA! The Hugo Spritz was a standout cocktail—light, refreshing, and the perfect way to start the evening. The wine selection recommended to us was absolutely fantastic and paired beautifully with our meal. Our server was incredibly attentive, offering thoughtful suggestions that made for a wonderful shared dining experience. The dishes were flavorful, well-presented, and perfect for enjoying with good company. Beyond the food and drinks, the atmosphere at KAMA is just stunning. The restaurant has a warm, inviting vibe that makes you want to stay and savor every moment. We love that it is locally owned. We will definitely be back with friends to enjoy this gem again! Highly recommend.

    Lunch here was great, dining room is beautiful and not loud even during the lunch rush. We had pizza and pasta and both were great! Very reasonable prices as well. Our server was serenity and she was great, she told us about some great specials that we will be back for like half price wine on Wednesdays and a happy hour charcuterie board
