Cheryl’s Country Kitchen — Restaurant in Airdrie

Absolutely fantastic experience and I'm going to tell you some of the reasons why. First of all, the atmosphere is wonderful. The restaurant is clean and well kept and just feels cozy. Everything is homemade and they aren't kidding when they advertise this. I had French onion soup that was definitely not too salty in any way. It left me almost mournful when I was finished because It was so good. My Monte Cristo seemed balanced and beautiful. All the cuts of meat were excellent. Then afterwards I had the pie, which isn't simply a piece of pie that's warmed up, It's an individually made small plate sized pie that made me feel the most special I have all week long. And it tasted so good that it's a good thing the seats held me securely, or I might have just fallen right through the face of the Earth having the first few soft, warm, blissful bites.

I had the pleasure of being served, as I later learned, by Cheryl herself of Cheryl's kitchen. She runs a tight ship. I don't think there was a single table in the mostly full restaurant that didn't get exactly what they needed promptly. One time I took a big bite and Cheryl slipped out from behind the adjacent booth to ask me "how are you doing? Great." and then disappeared again before I could chew enough to really answer much more than a genuine thumbs up and that's good because I'm quite a talker if you haven't gathered by now. I respect Cheryl's technique. She clearly knows her craft.

All fun aside. The food was excellent, it was my first time trying it, and it was the perfect way to accent one of the first warm sunny days marking the beginning of a free and wonderful summer that I know everyone is excited to live with a smile on...

My mom I went to Cheryl's August 8th/2024 for dinner. Mom had the Veal Cutlet with a stuffed baked potato. I had a steak sandwich with a stuffed baked potato as well. My steak I ordered medium & it was over cooked, the table was shaking when I went to cut it. After taking a bite it had no flavour & was very tough. The stuffed potato was very tough, couldn't cut it & tasted like a regular baked potato. My mom's veal was the same, very tough & she had a very time cutting it & her stuffed potato was the same as mine. She told our waiter, who offered to make another but my mom was disappointed & either of us finished our meals or wanted more. When the bill arrived the waiter stated he gave me a small discount & small is right lol $4.64 off the bill. We had eaten there before, for breakfast & had no issues. This was our 4th time eating here & we were very disappointed with our meals. Worse steak I have ever had, no flavour the onions & mushrooms weren't sautéed properly & the steak was very tough, no flavour at all & very over cooked. As for the garlic toast, I think the Flames could of used it for a hockey puck. Very disappointing & we will not be...

(disclaimer: the person waiting my table encouraged me to make this review after my meal, and even mentioned themselves by name. with that said, I'm not financially sponsored by them nor anyone else to do this. also, I came in with a group, but will be talking about food I primarily ordered.)

TL;DR: if you're in Airdrie, give this place a shot. the service is exceptional and the food is great.

a few days ago (August 30, 2025) I ate here during my stay at Airdrie and I'm very glad I did. the person waiting the table I was at-Karen-is one of the best waitstaff I've ever met. very engaging, attentive and courteous. for the work they do, they deserve a raise.

I decided on the potato skins and apple pie. "potato skins" is somewhat of a misnomer--they're more like long potato wedges with bacon, cheese and chives. the potato skin stays on these wedges. they were really crispy and delicious!

my apple pie came with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. both were pretty good, the apple pie in particular adding that sugary zing the ice cream felt lacking in.

overall I enjoyed my time here, and would certainly come back if...
