    We ordered the 40 oz cowboy chop with the brussel sprouts and risotto along with a few other appetizers and it made for a perfect meal. The Cinnamon Toast Crunch Mille crepe cake and basque cheesecake are also a must try. The carebear mocktail was delicious! I did order it less sweet and it was plenty sweet. We will be back!

    I booked a table in the Hawthorn Dining Room, hoping to get high end food and ambience. But I was not placed in the Dining room, and I wasn't given a quiet table, as I requested. Instead my partner and I were dumped in an EXTREMELY noisy bar. If I had wanted the bar I would have asked for it. The server's excuse for putting us there was that the dining room was booked for a private function. Fine. But if they going to do that, they should warn their customers in advance. In my mind, a bar is not a place for the high end food that Hawthorn is known for.

    It’s a beautiful place, service was fabulous Food was not good, I had the turkey dinner and the meat was inedible, the dessert sticky toffee pudding also dry and hard, they did take 50 percent of the price of meal off the bill so that was good. I will go back for wine or cocktails but won’t eat there again

    The Fairmont Palliser in Calgary offers a lunchtime experience that's a true delight for the senses. From the moment you step into the elegant dining room, you're enveloped in an atmosphere of refined luxury. The service is impeccable, with attentive staff (Frank) who anticipate your needs and provide a warm, welcoming experience

    There was a party that took over the dining room so there were only tables available in the bar. There was a duo entertaining that were loud and the crowd were trying to speak louder over them. We ordered some drinks and the last time we were there my drink was presented with a bunch of pomp and circumstance and was the highlight of my evening. This time they just poured it out of a teapot and left with the teapot. As always the ginger beef was delightful as the beef tartare. The beets were disappointing in that there were almost no beets on the plate. Our server was really busy but was still friendly.
