I recently visited Calgary with my Regional Manager. I am in Calgary on a regular travel schedule and this was my first visit to Brava. Upon walking in, we received a warm, almost an "I know you" type greeting by a lovely Hostess. We sat at the bar and again received a second warm greeting from the bartender. Other staff... More

This is a wonderful spot in every way. Delicious food, great ambiance, knowledgeable service. One of our favorites. Lobster gnocchi is the best!

Tripadvisor rated this restaurant as number two in Calgary, so we were surprised when we were able to make a last minute internet booking for a Friday night.

Scallops and short ribs, paired respectively with a wonderful Therapy Pinot Gris '09 and a Durigutti Malbec '08, were beautifully finished and presented. Service from Justin at the bar was attentive and timely. Candid suggestions directed... More

We met at the restaurant after work, they were fully booked and managed to squeeze us in at the bar. The food was tasty and professionally presented. The waitress we had... More

Brava has a wonderful menu with many mouth-watering options for which to choose. We wanted to try so many things! But we settled on a few dishes to try and loved everything... Until we got to dessert. The joy ended there. I would definitely go back to the restaurant. It's great value.

Apparently this restaurant is been rated as the number one restaurant in Calgary. I found to be very good but not great. The beet and blue cheese salad was good but the bread soggy and stale. Service was who were an inattentive. I sat at the bar and the bartender had attitude and complained almost the entire time. If the... More
