Exceptional service with every visit. Friendly and knowledgeable staff, incredible food, wide variety of unique cocktails and a long wine list. Couldn't be happier to have them on the block. Favs were the gnocchi and the chicken, but there's no wrong choice. Will be back on the regular. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $40–50
We celebrated my birthday at FinePrint and it was honestly one of the most pleasant dining experiences we've had in a while. From the incredible mocktails (get the margarita) to Sara our server, who went above and beyond for us! The food was incredible! I can't wait to recomend this spot to all of my friends.

A very enjoyable experience with nice atmosphere, good service, and excellent food. We met friends here for a nice, elegant dinner and were not disappointed. Our entrés were Hunter chicken, sablefish, duck breast and surf/turf. All very well prepared and super tasty. Highly recommend this restaurant.
Had a wonderful first experience at Fine Print. Our server Logan made the night though. He was so informative, and attentive and just overall wonderful service.
We were given the best table in the house! It was our anniversary and we were treated so well by Michael and all of the staff! Sweet Bella was so kind. I highly recommend Fine Print for any occasion! I forgot to mention those dang Tempura Green Beans!! AMAZING!
The food, cocktails, wine and service was exceptional and Michael took very good care of us and made our dinner sensational. This restaurant is becoming one of our favorites.

Food was delicious but cold. When mentioned, apologies and no offer to do anything differently. Service was slow. Too bad as I really want to see this place succeed. This was my second time here.
The tuna crudo and bison tartare were quite delicious but the portions were ridiculous for the price even taking fine dining standards into consideration. The burger and steak were also great, but the famous duck fat fries were disappointing. Too thin to have a crispy outside and soft inside and lacking in flavour. At least they had an in-house spicy ketchup. The beignets were too small to have the proper texture after being deep fried, but the chocolate mousse was nice. Lastly, it was very nice to see a white tea available, very rare. Service was a little slow for my taste, but he was an excellent, friendly waiter otherwise.
A great addition to Calgary's food scene... Good food, good service and elegant decor with a great looking private dining room at the rear.
We waited half an hour for our food, and when it finally arrived, it was a huge disappointment, which really dampened our spirits. Fortunately, the food itself turned out to be excellent. We were celebrating a family birthday, and with my 91-year-old mother being diabetic, the experience turned out to be quite stressful.
