We went to the Jasper Avenue location before a Winspear concert. The service was excellent! The pork schnitzel was amazing. I was surprised to see a live band which elevated the noise level quite a bit. You could still have a conversation and the music was very good. The food was good but having been to Europe and having eaten the traditional dishes, I was a bit let down. If you have never had food in Germany or Austria before, I am sure you would love it from this restaurant.

Continental Treat Fine Bistro is always a great evening out whether on Whyte Avenue or in their downtown location. The food is always very tasty, service was outstanding, and the ambience is really great whether it's a date night, or just out with a group of friends.

A nice ambience, and great acoustics, and the staff are patient and attentive. The food menu is a nice change from the same-old same-old restaurants default to these days... the infamous dill pickle soup lived up to the hype, and I recommend the beef stuffed rogies... YUM! It's a great spot for date night, business, lunch, friends, family... I will be back.

Dinner at CT prior to Winspear concert Lovely and quiet meal was thoroughly enjoyed Very much an elevated dining experience vs the relatively bland and common offerings of the large restaurant brands that dominate the restaurant business Will happily return in short order Bravo CT

Our server was probably the best part of the evening. There was also a young man that also came by often to clear our table, refill my coffee, and would sing a bit as he'd serve our table or as he walked to the kitchen. Will we go back, most definitely!
