I am going to agree. The whole building is hipster/trendy central and everything is just meh. Great location, but wouldn't go back that's for sure. Calgary needs to focus more on good solid food and less on decor and location.

Restaurants like this are successful in Calgary because we have a lot of people that have the money to spend but doesn't know any better when it comes to food. It's all about décor, and waitress T&A.

Bravo, Cactus Club.

But there are great restaurants in Calgary that doesn't follow this. They're just hidden gems! Sounds like we need to revive foodie meets.

Interesting to see that so many people have had similar experiences there - doesn't look good. Definitely won't be returning.

You can't even have a coffee after your meal, or their signature food on their rooftop - that is ridiculous.

Been there once, totally overpriced. Spent ~160$ for two and left hungry, Your far better off just getting sandwichs from next door at sidewalk citizen, they have amazing food and you can stuff your face for like 12$

Planning to head there Monday for the first time for a birthday....I'm starting to question my suggestion of this place

Hopefully I can be one of the few to have a good experience
