One of the best nights out in our time in Calgary. We received fantastic service and the food was delicious. With a group of 6 we shared all the dishes so tasted a lot of the menu. Wow! Creative and inventive mix of ingredients that all worked well. Not cheap but well worth it! Compared to London, UK restaurants this comes high in my list of fave's���

I throughly enjoyed my experience this evening. From the moment I walked in, to the moment I walked out. My favourite appetizer was the calamari. It was an adventure of flavours and texture, that complimented each other. The Thai sausage and sweet bread special were also delicious. I choose the beef burger with home cut fries. It was a great choice. The beef was very tasty.
Excellent service by Collin our server and everyone who tended our table! Everyone was very informative. Thank you so much for the wonderful dining experience!! What a great atmosphere! I will definitely be back! ��
My last review was Viewed 12596 times After a hard time with the road closed go support them, great cocktails, great service, and Sunday family dinner is one of the best.
Have been for Sunday dinner a few times, its a flat rate and the regular menu is not available. Pleased to see that they are publishing what the dinner is going to be. Great service on any day and fantastic food. You will not be disappointed.
My favourite dish was the caviar pancakes. I like the sharing idea, it’s fun but it was heavy vegetarian for me. The beers are only craft and even the whiskeys are different. I like different but sometimes you need a fall back.
I am a bit surprised at the low rating of this restaurant so I am writing this review to boost the rating. I rarely give ratings higher than a 4 (go ahead and look through my reviews ;)), but I felt compelled here. The menu and style is similar to Bridgette Bar. The focus is on unique plating, quality ingredients, and an incredibly dynamic menu that changes so fast it will make your head spin; the intention of course to stick to the seasonality of the ingredients. The result is some amazingly creative dishes with beautiful and unique flavor profiles; if you want traditional, go elsewhere. My partner and I always come here for birthdays and special events. The service is amazing and we are never disappointed. My only criticism is that it is a little on the pricey side, but only barely considering the quality..
We came to Model Milk to try some of their regular items on the 2017 Summer Feast prix fixe menu for $35/person. The food was inventive and tasty, but after having had an amazing meal at Pigeonhole (run by the same team) a few nights earlier, we didn't feel blown away by the food and service in quite the same way at Model Milk. I recommend giving it a try as their cocktails, shared plates and ambiance are quite fun, but we left feeling a little hungry and hopeful that our next visit will be better.
Model Milk is easily one of my favourite restaurants in the city. The ambience is cool, I'm a huge fan of sharing small plates in a group to try a little of everything. The food was wonderful and the drinks were great but what set this place apart for me was the amazing service.
We ventured out to Model Milk to celebrate one of my good friend's engagement as kind of an undercover stagette. She's a low key girl and they still managed to deliver and make her feel special without embarrassing her or drawing too much attention. Our server brought us a complimentary round of champagne and an appetizer, and explained the concept Of the restaurant well. He made some stellar recommendations and was extremely attentive without being intrusive. I look forward to returning!
Really love this place. It is a bit pricey but totally worth it. The only thing i would recommend this restaurant is to upsize their meal quantity.
Oh man, it’s been waaaaaaaaaaaay to long since my last trip(s) to Model Milk (here and here). They still offer their $40.00 Sunday Supper’s which I think is one of the best deals in the city! I met up with P during the long weekend to try their Spanish tapas theme (Sunday dinner’s theme changes every weekend). The vibe is chill with sweet tunes, friendly and knowledgeable staff, blah blah blah, let’s get to the smorgasbord of dishes.
This had been a long anticipated restaurant for me! I had heard so many great things and had very high expectations.
The food was good, but nothing that blew my socks off like I expected. It was interesting because I tried dishes that I have never even heard of before. My favourite part of this place was definitely the atmosphere. As I saw workers change out records to play a new song, it brought a smile to my face. It definitely has a more romantic feel, especially sitting in the upper area, the lighting is dim, less hustle and bustle and the lowered ceilings.
I would love to say I'd be back, but the price is too high for the food I received, and have many more amazing restaurants to check off my list first!
Food was really great. Fun options and unique variety. Easy to share with a small group and service was wonderful. Among 3 people we shared 2 small appetizers and one entree and split a bottle of med priced wine we split the bill and I still ended up paying over $85. Eighty isn't that much but when you consider the portion you get when it is split 3 ways. I understand this restaurant is higher end in food quality and well recommended, but the prices could come down slightly, just so more people could enjoy it. I would love to return and sure I will in the future. Thanks for the great experience.
I've heard so many good things this place, I was almost nervous to believe the hype. But believe it!!!
I went for my boyfriend's mom's birthday dinner last night, and I will definitely be back. Some of the ingredients on the menu sound a little intimidating, but we tried the garlic pepper chicken, calamari, sweet potato, tartare, and shrimp and grits. Even the pickiest eater in our group loved it. Everything tasted like the most perfect comfort food, and everyone left more than full!
Absolutely amazing - this is a wonderful restaurant to visit for all food lovers. There is something for all ages and food choices from oysters on the half shell to rainbow trout and for those beef lovers sirloin steak. Fancy some fried chicken this is a definite choice
Purely amazing! From the ambiance, the music, the service and the food…Model Milk is a top choice in Calgary. A well thought out menu with high quality and fresh ingredients. The service was world class and the food was pure bliss. The apple pie might be the best dessert I’ve ever eaten. Amazing
Had an excellent visit to Model Milk this week. I was dining alone as I was in a work trip, and often this means I am mostly ignored. Not at Model Milk! Kate was fantastic ( as was every other server who stopped by to fill my water and check in on me ), even through the restaurant was packed. My radicchio and endive salad with black garlic and sherry vinaigrette was spectacular, as was my hand rolled pumpkin cavatelli with smoked ham hock, sage and buttermilk. Fantastic experience and can’t wait to go back!

This was our first time eating here and we are very impressed. Out server Jamie was the best!! She was very attentive and polite. She made great suggestions, replaced our plates, and wipe the table in between course. Her attention was top notch. Between appy, main and desert, timing was perfect. They were busy but we did not feel rushed at all.
The FOOD: we got 5 appies. First: oyster. Let me tell you, we came from BC where seafood is fresh. But this oyster was so so SO good. They have their home-made sauce which was so so good! Second appy was the carrot - we don’t even know carrots can taste this good! Vegans out there, this is your dish! The third appy: brioche buns with special butter. This homemade bun has rly good texture and a lil sweetness to it. Fourth: wagyu beef tartare; perfect acidity and the crunchy thing came with it compliment the texture and taste. Last appy was the calmari, which we were looking forward when browsing thru the menu from home. We only have room for one entree: bbq alberta pork with brocollini , very yummy!! Last but not least is the apple pie. Never tried apple pie with cheese but this is rly good!
Especially being on Dec 31, everything was so perfect. The team work together here and they look happy working there. We return to BC so this is our last meal in AB, this was very memorable. Put a bow in our trip!
Had the calamari and brisket to share, and the apple pie.
Awesome service and great chill ambiance in the restaurant.
Brisket was the best we've ever had and nice accoutrements. Very savoury and nice incorporation of Ethiopian style. We shared it among 3 people and the portion was fine.
Apple pie was also the best I've had. Big portion. Nice cheddar crispy flaky crust and rich in house ice cream on top.
Great to be back after COVID! Cocktails, Food and Staff ( Kate & Taylor and kitchen staff) were all amazing. Thank you for a wonderful evening out.
Fantastic spot. Interesting tasty dishes. Fun cocktails. Lovely service.
Their pickles are delicious. Squid fricassee was such a complex yummy plate.
Overall a great spot for my husband’s birthday dinner.
