I had dinner at this quaint traditional Thai restaurant. I also learned that it is a favorite of the Back Street Boys who frequent it whenever they are in Calgary. The service was downright slow and poor. Explanation was provided that there was staff turnover and the lunch staff were filling in but unaccustomed to the evening dining trade which... More

Fair prices for great food and excellent service. This restaurant is upstairs from a walking street called Steven Avenue Mall down town Calgary. I try hard to make it once each time I am in Calgary.

Is up a long danky flight of stairs, and deco is "aged, imitation Thai". Food was good but not outstanding, reasonably priced. Service was slow, it seemed only one lady was serving the entire restaurant.

From the front of the restaurant you may not fancy going in as it is a bit dated, along with the interior decor, but the service is quick and friendly. The food is great as well, we ordered a green thai chicken curry and a red thai beef curry both being served at the heats we specified. Large portion sizes... More

We were in Calgary for the Magnetic North Theatre Festival and wandered down Stephen Avenue looking for supper. The front of this place confused us until we realized that we needed to walk up a long flight to stairs to find the restaurant. The stairs looked a bit dingy so we were not too sure about the place . .... More

Been to the Rose Garden about 4 times now. I always make a point of stopping by when in Calgary. Great food, good value and good service.

Good food and great location. If you like it hot, request the chopped green chiles. Fantastic flavor and heat!

At the top of a steep flight of worn, carpeted stairs, this quirky little restaurant offers up small portions of pretty good food. The fried spring rolls were not the best, however - much too small and slender and lacked flavor. Because they were so small, there was barely anything inside them. The phanaeng curry beef dish was actually pretty... More

My hubby took me here at the end of a long work day. The food was absolutely amazing! We had the spring rolls to start, and for the main: the red beef curry dish, a peanut chicken dish , and the coconut rice. The presentation of the dishes was simply amazing, and the decor of this place makes you feel... More

small place, nicely decorated, lunch buffet is not huge which is perfect because everything is well made and well presented. Service is brisk and pleasant. Certainly more than enough to choose from - you can try it all! Seems to be something different every time I go. Make reservations as it's always busy.
