Teatro
(Restaurants - Italian)
200 8th Ave SE, Calgary  T2G 0K7 • 403-290-1012
Distance: ~386 m away from The Fairmont Palliser
Description: Set on the edge of Olympic Plaza, this fashionable restaurant is the place to see and be seen in town. Its residence in the historic Dominion Bank building grants Teatro elegant period architecture, along with a more clean-lined decor that serves as its foil. The cuisine is Italian in intent, supplemented by seasonal Canadian ingredients. Pastas, seafood, meat dishes, pizzas, and antipasti comprise the menu; among the delicacies you'll find are terrine of duck foie gras, lobster-and-scallop lasagna, apple wood-roasted salmon, rack of lamb, veal cheeks, and dry-aged rib-eye. Everything is sublime, from the service to the wine list and the sinful desserts. Naturally, you'll pay for the experience, but it's one you won't want to miss, and it's absolutely worth it. One of the city's best.

Expecting the best of the best, I was up for a big fall. While the atmosphere was perfect, the food was cold and the waiter was barely around to take our order, which made the expense of the whole experience seem outrageous. While I am sure others have had fabulous meals, I will not be recommending the restaurant to anyone I know.
