Twelve Fifty Lounge — Restaurant in Calgary

Where to begin, walked in for dinner. There were four people in the restaurant I was solo. I sat down and apparently cause I didn’t order alcohol. That didn’t seem to go over that well as the waitress kind of huff about it. And have to gain when I wasn’t ready to place my order, because I was trying to figure out what gluten-free option to eat because they don’t really have gluten-free per Se. I did order and she delivered the food. She never came back and checked on me. She never asked me if I was all right she never did anything including not delivering the bill, so I got up to pay the bill. And they tried to promt 20% tip. I had a burger and fries if you mess that up well, there’s something wrong it was average it was a burger and fries. But the service was atrocious. Let’s go to phase 2 !I walk in in the morning to have breakfast, Breakfast is over so you must order off of the regular day menu. So I sat down and I waited and I waited and I waited and I waited. The two staff members were cleaning the buffet up and ignore me. So I walked out. I did go to the front desk and tell them they didn’t really seem to care either. Overall, don’t expect ANY service...

Service not good. Food hardly edible. From the description on the menu salmon sounded wonderful. Not sure what this was. Over cooked salmon maybe from a “captain high liner” reject?. Some weird sauce. Rice pilaff was some steamed white rice coloured with chicken stock. Nothing else. Not even the fresh cilantro it should at least have. Fresh seasonal veg (?), the best thing on the plate even though peppers and carrots I am pretty sure are ready in fall in Canada 😂 .

No service staff came back after food was delivered to ask how it was. I ate it. I am tired and on a short turn around.

Staff too busy watching TV as opposing to helping the 5 customers in the restaurant. 3rd time in 15 years I have not left a tip.

Not worth the money. Would...

No gluten free options. Kitchen couldn't/wouldn't offer steak & veg option other than prime rib or sirloin at $37 or $ 39. Exasperated I asked if I could not order .... Was told no problem... Then they charged large group even though I couldn't eat. Also 1 if our 5 meals (steak sandwich ) appeared to be a cut in half and served only one of the halves ( There were 2 other steak sandwiches that appeared normal). Seating was quick. Food came in a timely fashion. But only one how is everything then nothing. One water pitcher ( small) for 6 people. No offer to refill. And we had to chase for the bill. 4 of 5 meals looked excellent and were reported to taste good or very good. It was quiet ( few guests), no intrusive music and great for easy...
