• 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!

    Ten Foot Henry is my favourite restaurant in Calgary and has been consistently for years!! My favourite dish of the night was the new “marinated beets” with mama ghanoush, salted ricotta (I omitted due to dairy allergy) & cured zucchini - A true chefs kiss/honourable mention to this extraordinary explosion of flavours, vivid colours and complimentary textures which paired superb with my delightful blueberry roiboos tea! Thank you all as always for the exceptional hospitality, service & care this Valentine’s Day weekend!! Much love & appreciation, Sam

    Concorde has set the bench mark for exceptional premium casual dining in Calgary, so expectations are high when dining at one of their properties. Barbarella, as expected, hit it out of the park once again! Brad B provided exceptional, knowledge and personable service., drinks were fantastic - from the Crimson Lion cocktail to the well curated beer and wine list and every dish was delicious! The ravioli is one of my favourites dishes in the city and we tried a couple of their Valentine’s features, which were also fabulous! We also really enjoyed the table we were sat at, tucked away in a corner of the main floor.

    I had the pleasure of enjoying a Valentine’s dinner at Major Tom, and it was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, setting the perfect mood for the evening. The service was outstanding—our server was attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was just right without being intrusive. They went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful experience, and their genuine hospitality made the night even more special. As for the food, every dish was a delight! From the beautifully presented appetizers Oysters etc….to the perfectly cooked main courses and the decadent dessert, each bite was full of flavor and clearly made with care. The chef truly outdid themselves, and we could taste the quality in every dish. Because of the exceptional service and fantastic dining experience, we were more than happy to leave a generous tip. It was well deserved, and we will definitely be returning for another memorable evening. Highly recommend Major Tom for anyone looking for great food and top-notch service!
