Strip Joint Chicken — Restaurant in Calgary

Response to owner:

How delightful it is to hear about the sunglasses in your lost and found. I'm sure the poor soul who lost them would be thrilled to know their belongings are being repurposed to cover for your sheer incompetence.

I attempted to throw you a lifeline with my feedback, but it's abundantly clear that you're too busy drowning in your own failures to grasp it. Customer satisfaction? Ha! That's just a laughable concept to you, isn't it? Well, mark my words: your pathetic excuse for a business will be nothing but a stain on the memory of this city within the year.

Now, let's talk about my dining experience: the food was nothing short of a culinary catastrophe, yet you have the audacity to charge extortionate prices for such garbage. The dill pickle chicken strips were an insult to taste buds everywhere, and your feeble attempt at ambiance with the blinding brightness of your establishment is downright cruel. Do you actually think anyone wants to dine in a glorified interrogation room?

Save your breath with your feeble attempts at damage control; it's as pathetic as you are. Until you learn to take customer feedback seriously – if you even know what that means – your descent into irrelevance will continue unabated.

Original Review:

The food was mediocre at best. I ordered the dill pickle chicken strips and potato balls. While the chicken was cooked adequately, it lacked flavor except for the scattered pickles on the plate. Moreover, I found the prices to be unreasonably high for the quality offered. As for the service, it was passable, considering you have to order from the cashier.

However, the glaring issue was the excessively bright lighting in the establishment. Despite the supposed play on words with the name "strip joint," one would expect a neon-lit ambiance. Instead, the overly bright lighting made it unbearable, to the point where I needed sunglasses just to tolerate it. It's baffling how photos in reviews portray a vibrant neon atmosphere when, in reality, the harsh house lighting washes out any semblance of ambiance.

Just in case they try to change their response:

Hey James, We actually have a collection of sunglasses in our lost and found that you're welcome to use while dining with us, just ask at the counter next...

Where do I even begin...... I am staying in Calgary for one evening and decided to order Door Dash as I didn't want to leave and pay for parking again when I got back.

I came across Stripjoint Chicken and was immediately intrigued! I searched them on Google as I wanted to read some reviews. As I expected everyone had nothing but GREAT things to say about this restaurant.

One review stated that their Truffle Honey sauce was one of the best dips/sauces she has ever had. I looked on Door Dash for the sauce and it was not on their list. This lead me to send the restaurant a message on Instagram, asking if the sauce was possibly named something different, as I was very interested in trying it with my meal.

Someone responded right away and advised that it was not on the Door Dash menu, but they would look out for my order and toss in a free Truffle Honey dip. Right off the hop....amazing customer service! Just wait, it gets better!

I place my order with Door Dash and await my dinner. The bag shows up and I was quite shocked about the size of the bag as I had only ordered 2 things and a drink...I picked up the bag and read a note that said " Free funeral potato's and banana pudding from Dennis" I am sorry....WHAT?!?!

Not only were the chicken tenders probably the best I have ever had, (Stripachos) the Funeral potato's were outstanding and the fries were delicious. I have not made it to the banana pudding yet but I can only imagine it will be just as GREAT as everything else was!

What an amazing experience tonight and I will absolutely be coming back and telling every person I know about Stripjoint Chicken!! Dennis, thank you very much for making my evening and making sure my...

My niece came in from outta town and we like to take her to local cool places. My daughter had suggested the Strip Joint on numerous occasions and for whatever reason we never have made it here. But Sunday was the day! We met down there at 6 and to my surprize, it was not silly busy. There were some folks there but lots of open tables too. We grabbed one and looked at the menu on the board. We had perused the menu before we came here. It is a good idea. We spent lots of time looking and drooling. Kelly grabbed the fries and a hot honey dipped slider. Kimberly and I split the Peanuts Be Jelly & the Tso Good. We also split the chili roasted cauliflower. We got three dunks: hot honey, dill pickle back ranch & another one? Obviously, the dill and the honey were the best. Kelly raved about her slider. There was nothing that would have made it better she said. Her fries were so incredibly hot & crispy. They were the best fries I have ever had and I had LOTS because they were so good. So good. The chicken strips we got were insane. They were SO GOOD! OMG! I cannot choose which one was better because they were both so good. I love a good crunch but this was Capt. Crunch crunch!! Wow!! But the sauces took it over the top. These were the moistest, juiciest, crunchiest, tastiest chicken strips I have ever had the pleasure to taste. I have been missing out. But no longer!! I...
