Went to the Brasserie for the first time for Sunday High Tea with my staff from oranj fitness Kensington! Amazing guests experience, our servers were lovely and the owner Cam was awesome! We had a vegan with us and her vegan-friendly high tea options were unreal! We can't wait to go back! By far one of THE BEST places for high tea! Thanks Brasserie!

We were planning to meet a couple friends at Brasserie but they bailed on us at the last minute so it ended up being a lovely date night for just my wife and I. We were super impressed with how the staff introduced themselves and made us feel like friends rather than customers. My wife has a few food allergies that the staff (and head chef) went out of their way to accommodate. Her meal was fabulous and I loved the mussels dish that I had. We'll be going back again. Thank-you!

User

We were invited by my Friend Russel who works here for lunch. We took our staff and were not disappointed. Nice atmosphere Food is scratch made and tastes wonderful.

Thanks for the invite Russ.

We attended our first Down and Dirty night which is a 10 course meal with 10 paired cocktails. We left 4 1/2 hours later stuffed and satisfied. Chiefs from around the city worked with mixologists to blow us away 10 times. Awesome night at a fantastic restaurant.

User

Typically love brunch or dinner here. Today, brunch was a little off due to some minor issues. The manager was so kind and interested in our concerns, and while we didn't ask for any discounts, she gave us a very generous one to let us know we are valued customers. Will definitely be back soon!

User

The service was fantastic. I was starving and cranky and couldn't make up my mind. Our server was incredibly attentive and patient with our orders. We ended up having four courses, each better than the last. The food was baller. My steak was great. We will be back.

User

Quality food, wine and cozy fun vibe. Lots of food options and Happy Hour 3-6 offers any glass pour of wine for $6 plus beer options. Staff are amazing and chefs take pride in their work!

User

Owner/Chef Cam and staff did everything right for my Easter Dinner. I just enjoyed a heart warming 3 course meal at a seriously reasonable price. Great service � Thank you very much.

User

My first experience at Brasserie was awesome thanks to Anika and Kellie! Amazing food, great service, and a charming brunch all around. I highly recommend upgrading your brunch with mimosas or a ceasar!

User

It was a great experience. The atmosphere is very cool and the staff were genuine and friendly. They have a very unique menu with many items that most places don't have the skill to try to tackle. I can't wait to try supper there. That menu looked fantastic.

User

I have come to Brasserie for the last 3 years for the Diagon Alley/Fantasy Faire day. The food is amazing and the service is outstanding. I always look forward to eating here!

User

Haven't been there in ages! Might have to make the drive from Banff to have the best food!! Plus that Jorel guy is so handsome!!! �

User

Great venue for small social get together

User

Excellent local food, great wine, outstanding service. Definitely coming back again.

User

Always awesome! Friendly service, delicious food and tons of beverage options...what more do you need?!

User

it's good food. I used to love their food. Then some vegan complained about the fries being put in duck fat and now it's ruined for everyone.

User

We were looking forward to a nice Sunday brunch and instead had a less than average experience with the food at this restaurant. I am no foodie so it doesn’t take much to impress me and this is one place I will never go back to!!

User

The food was average but the service was very poor. Not the ideal birthday celebration for sure. Our server and supporting staff were very cold and not happy to be working... so it seemed. Although the server was very knowledgable of the menu and reccomending items- she had zero enthusiasm, energy and kept a constant blank face at every table. My wine glass was very dirty and had fingerprints all over it and when I brought it to her attention she simply said "Kay" and grabbed it from me, not even a "sorry about that let me get you a clean glass". I would suggest management talk to their staff about proper serving etiquette and customer service, especially when the bill was close to $200.

User

Had the veal. It was practically raw. Couldnt get the knife through it. Brought me another but by that time I was so grossed out. It also had no flavour !

Disappointing !
