My husband and I had the pleasure of visiting Saltlik while staying in Calgary from Edmonton.
We are both ex-service industry and eating out is literally a hobby. We were gifted with Chris as our server. The service was next level exceptional! The food was spectacular and the room was elegant, casual and comfortable.
I wish we had Saltlik in Edmonton! But this is our new favourite Calgary restaurant and will be back again and again.

Food was incredible, service was great. A bit pricy but you get what you pay for. I had the bbq steak, baked potato and Mexican cream corn. I can’t wait to come back!
Visited Saltlik last night and was very impressed by the ambiance, food and service.
The lamb chops were by far the best lamb dish I’ve had in Calgary. The steak was cooked beautifully. Cheesecake was great too. Our server was good, I’m unsure as to why he gave us two servings of ketchup....
Overall great experience and would highly recommend!
Beautiful interior, kind staff and tasty food. Portions were perfect, a bit pricier but worth it for a night out. Steak and baked potato was delicious (: good craft beers too.
I loved this place. When I walked in I was handed a glass of champagne (nothing of super high quality or anything, but the gesture was appreciated). The seats were comfortable with a great ambience. It was pretty busy as restaurants downtown usually are. I got a rib eye that was perfectly cooked and my partner got the chicken which was above average. The sides were great. I will definitely be back.
Ordered the filet mignon and substituted out the loaded baked potato that's included for the lobster mashed potatoes. The server told us that it would cost around $9 to make the substitution. Turns out it was $13.50 to do the substitution, totally not worth it at all and found it absolutely ridiculous. However, was very seasoned and delicious. But keep in mind, there was not a lot of lobster in it.
Ordered the peppercorn steak and substituted to asparagus. It was much spicier than expected, but still good.
The toffee pudding with ice cream was nice and warm, but a bit sweet.
If you want to substitute out the the loaded baked potato, I highly do not recommend the lobster mashed potatoes. The other options cost $1 only (or as I was told).
Saltlik has all the elements for a truly great night out. Excellent ambiance, service, and, evidently, the food.
Always greeted with the perfect balance of modern meets classic, it never fails to please in any aspect.
Although known for its steak, I decided to indulge in the pasta this time. It came in a cream sauce delicately perfumed with truffle and kobe meatballs in a house made marinara sauce. The acidity of tomatoes and the earthiness of truffles is an unlikely pair, but together they worked beautifully- a unique dish worth coming here especially for.
The hunter chicken is also always good bet- juicy, succulent and brimming with flavour. Puts a completely new spin on the saying "tastes like chicken"!
What takes the cake, however, wasn't an entree at all- it was the "crudo"- with thinly sliced beef, greens, enoki mushrooms, and shaved grana padano.
It came with thin garlic crostini. Get it next time you go. Seriously.
No dinner at such an establishment would be complete without dessert- the sticky toffee pudding in particular is the cherry on top and deserves all its praise.
To top it off further, the staff are consistently pleasant and the rustic yet chic decor flows completely in tune with everything else.
It would almost be a crime to pass by and not pass through.
Check it out next time in downtown YYC!
Came here on a week day evening with set reservation, but finding parking was a total pain. Ended up parking at TD square and walked there via 8th. -0.5
We ended up being 15 mins late and I guess they gave our requested window seating away.
We ordered the mushroom soup, French onion soup, ribeye with side of lobster mash, filet mignon with side of garlic toast, and finished everything off with the sticky toffee pudding with ice cream. Everything was freaking delicious!!!! No complaints about the food or service. I'm not a huge fan of steak, but the ribeye is a no fail. Finished everything and had a good experience. They were a full house that night.
Will definitely be back
Went with a group of 7 people, had appetizers and drinks in the lounge. Service was excellent, servers offered valuable tips on both the drink and food menu and spoke loud enough that everyone could hear which was much appreciated! Food was superb, fries are a must. Will definitely return!
Rented the top floor for a group event. The staff was awesome and helpful. Booking was easy and accommodating. The food was well priced to fit my budget and really wonderful. Everything was set up perfectly. Best experience I'v had thus far with planning an event. Will definitely return.

Quaint little setting perfectly lite for a relaxing evening dinner. Server and host we’re cherry and delightful As well as personal and helpful with menu selection and recommendations. Very attentive to our needs. The food was enjoyable with beautiful charring on the steak and salmon favourite was the appetizer and wine. Price was a little bit high in comparison to other calibre restaurants, flavour decent but not outstanding though the atmosphere and service offset these points.

Although I consider this one of the top places for steak in Calgary, it's nice to see their other dishes are equally delicious. Highly recommend the gnocchi and scallops. Service was excellent and atmosphere is always great. Their brussel sprouts will leave you lusting for more.
Visited this restaurant twice so far. My first experience with this restaurant was beyond and above my expectation. So i went there again on last Friday, my medium rare steak came over cooked. it looked/tasted more like medium well or even well done. other than that, staff were kind and helpful.
The crostone was unique and delicious. Easily the best steak I have ever had. Choosing my own sides was a great touch. Service was excellent. Portion sizes we great. The sticky toffee pudding is to die for. Will definitely be back.
Online reservation was easy to book. The hostess was inviting and prompt with our arrival. We were seated quickly and didn't have to wait. We were offered waters while we looked over the menu and the water was brought over very quickly. Severs were on top of making sure we had everything we needed and our drinks weren't sitting empty. She also managed to check in frequently without being overbearing or interrupting (always a balancing act, as a server I know the struggle).
The bathroom was gorgeous and so clean. Definitely wasn't expecting a bathroom that was so nice and inviting. Probably sounds weird but it was a pleasant surprise so I thought I'd mention it in the review.
The food was top notch. Flavours were perfect, portion size was good, steak was cooked perfectly. And the brussel sprouts? Omg I'll forever dream of those between visits.
Great place. You must try the calamari. One of the best I've ever tried. And the dessert, all were sublime.
What an unexpected dining experience at Saltlik especially in a game night. 😊 We stayed at the nearby hotel and just googled for a restaurant for a dinner, Saltlik just pop up. So, we just went
It's a joyful dining experience..we had a glass of great beer and 3 awesome starters. We ordered only a main dish to share with and the service staff had the food into a sperated plate..such a nice & thoughtful action.👍 The sirloin was tender & delicious... It's a great restaurant worth to revisit.👍
The first thing that hits you when you walk in is the ambience and the good music. Then the great food. The staff were prompt and helpful.
The grilled chicken sandwich was amazing - you could taste the seasoning and grilled flavour in every bite. That and some good wine, makes for a great night! Would definitely recommend.
