Well, hey there, foodie friends! With the weather looking the way that it does, you’re likely going to find yourself jonesing for some comfort food over the weekend. Instead of checking out the same old places and ordering the same old things, why not hit up one of these brand new restaurants in Calgary!
ORCHARD
Suit up, Calgary, it’s about to get boujee. Serving outrageously good looking Mediterranean food and cocktails, this brand new resto is practically a python away from being an actual jungle. Seriously, this place is on freaking point, but we wouldn’t expect anything less from the folks who also brought us Shelter. That being said, if you don’t have a reservation you’re going to have a tough time getting in. Book ahead, people!
Where: 134, 610 – 10th Avenue SW, Calgary
CHEMICAL STEVE’S BEER JOINT
Strapped for cash? At Chemical Steve’s on 17th, everything is $6 or less, meaning you can drink more and cry less the next morning when you look at your credit card statement. If these guys believe in anything, it’s that a good time doesn’t have to come at a hefty price, and we stan the hell out of that mentality. You will not regret checking this place out!
Where: 718 17th Avenue SW
K STREET FOOD
With unique items like their Korean hotdogs and sausage and rice cake skewers, Calgary’s new K Street Food is guaranteed to kick off some enlightening over-dinner conversation. Just please don’t talk with your mouthful, guys. You’re better than that.
Where: #130 1211 Edmonton Trail NE, Calgary
PONSHU JAPANESE IZAKAYA
Ajito’s sister resto, Ponshu, is an innovative Japanese spot, that serves unreal authentic food, but has tweaked a few things in order to appeal to 0the “Canadian pallet.” From their Chicken Tofu to their Sapporo Beer Battered Onion Rings (drool) their menu is jam-packed full of unique bites, traditional faves, and everything in between.
Where: 10 Crowfoot Circle NW, Calgary
CANELO’S

We don’t give a flying fox if it’s cold outside. When it comes to ice cream, it could be -40 and we’d still be up for a cone! Canelo’s is an outrageous new Mexican Street Eats joint, with unreal desserts served in colourful creations, that are not only delish but super photogenic as well!
Where: 3007 26 Ave SW, Calgary
There you have it, 5 new restaurants in Calgary! Whether you hit one, or all of them (which is totally possible if you plan it just right) it’s going to be one tasty weekend, folks. Enjoy!
