• Steakhouse • Downtown

Four key pieces separate us from a traditional steakhouse.1) We only serve ranch specific Alberta Beef. That means we don’t serve beef from anywhere else on the planet. We know our farmers and ranchers personally and respect the hard work they put into produce our beef. We like our beef to be, hormone & antibiotic free and pasture raised. Happy cattle make for better steaks. 2) We are one of just a handful of steakhouses in Canada that serves, Grass-fed, Grain-fed, Wet-aged, Dry-aged and Wagyu beef 365 days a year. Our beef is always fresh never frozen.3) We use an 1800o Infrared Grill to cook your steaks. Our grill stays at very consistent high heat versus a traditional open flame grill. The high heat creates a flavourful crust on outside of the steak and leaves a juicy centre.4) Our décor is warm and modern. The tradition has always been dark wood, leathers and a muted palate for a steakhouse. We broke the mold and decided to add hand selected music that reflects us!

I’d personally like to thank Kat for hosting us last night. I appreciate your professionalism and patience with our birthday group. Thank you to the whole team for accommodating us and the flexibility with time. We really really appreciate. Been there twice now and I haven’t had a bad experience. I would recommend this place for any event you are planing or a date night. Live music was great. Definitely lives up to its name.

My fourth time dining here and it continues to impress on all fronts. Was out for a girls night with a friend and our daughters - the kids menu was great, and our entree and experience was superb. Kids had spaghetti, salmon, and chicken fingers off the menu, we had the beef tartare, the chateau Briand with Brussels sprouts and risotto. The beef was exceptional. Great service and environment altogether. Can’t say enough good things about this restaurant and the hotel as a whole. 10/10!

Not our First time at Hy's... But what made it remarkably special was being served by Dino. Truly a kind and wonderful professional server.. Witty and on point.. Dino made up the tastiest Caesar salad we've ever had, the second tastiest was when we dined there a couple years ago. Dino made that one too.. Beef steak Tartar was very tasty too.. As was the shared Porterhouse and the shared Rib-, Eye both done to medium rare perfection.. Sides were very tasty too... The Room, the excellent food and musical ambience was fantastic.. But what really anchored it was the top notch attentive service by Dino.. Thanks Dino, and your manager who Dino brought over to meet us and of course the rest of the Hy's team...
