   Very good food. Lots of tableside preparations such as caesar salad, chateaubriand, and desserts. Service was quite slow. Expensive but worth it, just be prepared to wait. Parking in the area is also difficult.

   We had the 5-course chef’s table with the wine pairing and it was excellent. In particular, the black cod was spectacular and the beef cooked perfectly. Nice ambiance and quiet enough to have good conversation without a struggle. The perfect spot for date night.

   My wife and I went for a date night recently and the experience from start to finish was exceptional. As we are more adventurous eaters we chose the 5 course chef's choice tasting menu. Everything we had, from Sablefish, to Lobster Ravioli and Tenderloin was perfectly cooked. The husband and wife team running the show were both excellent in their roles. The husband running the front of house hosting, bartending, serving, while his wife was preparing the amazing food and bringing it to the table. Highly recommend.

   I was excited to visit The Continental, having heard wonderful things about the food. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the menu promised a delightful culinary experience. I decided to surprise my fiancé, and made a reservation for the YYC 5 course dinner with wine pairing. However, unfortunately, my visit was overshadowed by the unprofessional and rude behavior of the single front of house staff (possibly owner) on a Friday evening dinner service. Upon arrival, Pierce seemed distracted and surprised even, in acknowledging our presence for the booked reservation. Perhaps we came in at a time where he was caught in a rush; taking orders, making drinks and taking phone calls. We were sat, with our choice of table, which I did appreciate. Drink orders were taken eventually, a few cocktails which were great, and we were explained of the courses to come. After receiving our first course, I kindly reminded our server of the wine pairing, to which he replied, “Well you haven’t paid for it yet!” As a previous restaurant manager myself, this threw me off as I had assumed it was implied when the booking was made. He rudely followed with, “So what do you want, I can do the pairing or get you a glass.” While I asked that we go ahead with the pairing, it undoubtedly set the tone for the rest of the dining experience. The next courses felt rushed and dismissive, not to mention quite uncomfortable. We decided to ask for the cheque, and the chef kindly packed the main and dessert courses to take with us. While the food certainly lived up to the hype and was delicious, the treatment from Pierce left a sour taste. It’s a shame that such a great culinary experience was marred by a lack of basic courtesy and professionalism. It’s clear that hospitality is a huge part of the dining experience, and unfortunately, it was sorely lacking here. I hope the management takes the time to address these issues, as it detracts from what could otherwise be an exceptional restaurant.

   We did the 7 course chefs tasting menu and we were not disappointed! The serving were just the perfect size so you didn’t leave stuffed but yet filling. Our host was extremely good and took care of the entire restaurant with grace and attention. We were constantly amazed with each course ! Our favourites were the lobster bisque, beef tartar which was served with a smoking glass vessel that gave it that extra flavour we’ve never experienced before as well as our final entree which was a perfectly done beef tenderloin! We were looking for a dessert wine and they had some incredible Port and a gorgeous French dessert wine. We will most definitely be back !!!

   Filet Wellington was superb. Creppe suzette was also incredible and the experience of having it made flambe' by our table was a great plus to the evening.

   Service was quite slow. Seemed like they were short staffed in the front of house especially since the restaurant was quite full. Food was ok but not as good as I expected. Flavours were lacking.

    The food was excellent. I can’t say enough about this restaurant service and ambiance were 10 out of 10.
