Caesar's Steak House, Calgary

Tonight for the first time I got kicked out of a restaurant with my 18 month girl. I am still in shock! When my work colleages and I booked we asked for a child seat and no one told us the steakhouse was not kid friendly. Shortly after arrival I got told to keep her quiet. She was laughing and playing. About five minutes later I got asked to leave as the host stated he had a complaint. This was at 6pm and the place was still mostly empty although was starting to fill up. I still can't believe her behaviour waranted this reaction. Can't comment on the food as never made it to the first course!

i ordered the steak,and stuffed potato with a salad to start, and of course a caesar to drink. i got about half way through my salad,when i discovered: a plastic bread bag tie! i called the waiter over and brought it to his attention, to which he did nothing...not even another salad?. when the steak came i had ordered a med rare 10 ounce (forgot the cut, anyway...) which turned out a rather fatty steak done very rare, with blood running on to my plate as i sawed into it. top it off the waiter only came once more after the meal was served to top off drinks. i was quite unhappy, especially when i payed the bill and was told i could not keep the bread tie.

My husband and myself have been going to this restaurant for more years than I care to admit. Usually for special occassions as their Scampi is to die for. On the last occassion, I ordered Steak and Lobster and upon receiving it, it smelled rancid & "fishy". I tried a bite and it was terrible. I then tried the steak but it too tasted fishy due to the juices from the lobster tail getting to it. I complained to the waiter and he argued that it must be my imagination and I said no, I asked him to smell it as I wanted to send it back. He then called over the owner to our table who looked at me and said "Lady, the lobster here is always fresh and had I ever had lobster before, its fish, it's supposed to smell and taste fishy?? I gasped at the rudeness especially from the owner himself and told him "fresh fish does not smell or taste "fishy". They refused to take it back to the kitchen so we paid our bill without eating anything and will never darken those doors again. We now go to the Macleod Trail location and have never had a problem. They are great there!

I go to Caeser's often at lunch and i think more reviewers need to appreciate the value they provide. The steak is excellent and it comes with soup or salad, bread and potatoe or rice...all with a lunch steak for around $20-$25 per person. There are many steak joints in and out of Calgary that charge you that much or more just for the steak and then charge an arm and leg for all the sides. There are a lot of restaurants in downtown calgary where $20-$25 gets you an OK pasta or burger let alone a great steak. I agree that some, not all, of the waiters can be rude and stuffy. Otherwise i will continue to return!

i like everything about cesars yay go cesars. i need to write more i dont like that part. hahahehe. i like the waitors they are very very nice.

I was a bit perplexed to find all these negative reviews! I went there for lunch and found it to be the best place I have eaten in Calgary, beating out Belvedere, Murrieta's etc. Great food and absolutely the best lunch service. Quick and efficient with such a cool ambience. Definitely a man's restaurant. Makes you feel like you need to be smoking a cigar. I understand what ppl are saying about the food though. It was great, but I have had better steaks at Chicago Chophouse. For Lunch atleast, the price is well worth it.

We were recently hosted at Caesar's and we had an exceptional dinner...our table ordered rib eyes and filet mignons and every steak was grilled to prefection. Cheese toast is still delicious. The wine selection was focused with lots of great choices we started off with the Fontodi and then moved on to Caymus and both wines were perfect with our steaks. Services was great. Definitely still has the best steaks in town!

Likes?..The waiters present themselves professionally in their Tuxedo's. The service was good. Dislikes..The prices are fine dining, the food is cheap pub. They even charged 7.50 extra per plate for the Caesar because we didn't want the iceberg lettuce, pale tomato salad that comes with the 35 dollar steak dinner. I order fries, expecting fresh cut and got cheap frozen. The "French onion soup" was broth with a chunk of bread sprinkled with Kraft parmesan from the can. I had one small New York with frozen fries for 34.95!! It cost my wife and I 140 bucks including a 1/2 liter of wine and tip, no desert! I've had better steak at The Parthenon for 1/2 the price. And to top it all off, the Willow Park location is dark, dingy and old smelling. I cook, with rave reviews from guest, my son is the executive chef for a restaurant back east, and we know what good food is. Don't go to this restaurant!!

Rude hostess, uncaring waiters, no water refilled, no bread. Food was poorly prepared. For the big $$$ spent here, meals should be perfect. Not even close. Never again. Go elsewhere.

I have opened 27 restaurants over the course of my career. I have dined in excellent establishments from New YOrk, Los Angeles, Prague to Tokyo. I came to the restaurant full of expectations as I heard it was the best steak in Calgary. The service was slow, inattentive and very rude. At one point the waiter told my wife not to eat her fish with the knife he provided, he said the knife was to cut her vegetables....unbelievable. The steak was bland, uninspired and overcooked. When I pointed this out to the waiter he said to cut into the middle. I have never disliked a restaurant experience so much in my life and I eat out an average 4 times a week. Stay away...stay away....stay away...
