Ruslan was very welcoming and informative. We ordered everything he suggested and were very pleased with everything we tasted. Our faves were the lamb tartar, duck breast and romesco. Absolutely will be back.

All around an excellent dining experience! Quiet table by the fire on a cold night. Every dish was perfectly prepared, the duck breast and lamb ribs are standouts for sure! Service was quick, friendly, very knowledgeable and clearly loved the food there as well! This was one of the best meals I’ve had in Calgary. Will be back.

We enjoyed a few plates of tapas, skewers of delicious beef and lamb and a lovely salad. 2 cocktails (1 non-alcoholic) and a glass of wine, our total bill was $130 which is more than reasonable. Boho chic interior design is very chill and modern.

Mushroom bechamel delicious. Shakshuka was pleasant though not overly exciting. Good coffee and tea. Great service and cozy/well-appointed space!

Food, flavors and portions where excellent, instead of ordering we put our trust in our server to give us the best experience and we were not disappointed by the incredible journey they took us on. Thank you and see you again!

Food was good, but overpriced. Service was poor. Interior ambience was not as it is portrayed on the restaurant website. Would not eat an evening meal there again.

We were saddened to read your feedback. We put tremendous amount of effort into crafting dishes and creating an experience that is worthwhile for our customers Unfortunately, we fell short in your case. We take guest feedback very seriously and have discussed your review with our staff. We genuinely want to learn from your experience. Park is a small restaurant with a passionate, dedicated team. It much more than just our livelihood - it is a shared vision built on creativity, hard work and a commitment to delivering outstanding experience. We are proud of what we do, and own up to our shortcomings as well as our success. If you’re willing, we would love to have chat with you directly.
