When it comes to restaurants, Calgary is practically spoiled for choice – but who’s complaining? From cocktail bars and fine dining must-visits, there is almost always something new and exciting on the scene, so here are just 8 that we think you should try this weekend! Believe us, you won’t regret it!

SPACE ROBO CHICKEN
