“ Went to cassis for a staff dinner! And had such an amazing time. All of the staff were excellent and extremely attentive. We had the 4 course menu and the Food was so delicious, with great options to choose from for each course. Would recommend for anybody looking for a place to connect over a perfect meal. Thanks cassis! ”
“ Just came back from Paris in February and this place is better than many restaurants in Paris! We live nearby and it’s always busy and I can see why. Croquette (not in picture) is scrumptious, perfect texture and flavour. House baked baguette is chef’s kiss!! Beet salad was great, but it had more greens than beets and hope it had more beets. Salmon was cooked really nicely and the sauce paired really well with it. Beef tartar wasn’t the best we’ve had but still really great. Service is top notch. I am happy we tried this place and will return :) ”
“ I’ve been here multiple times and this time we came for their New Year’s Eve set menu special. Every single course was perfect, tasty, came out in an orderly manner and had the option of coming with a wine pairing. The food is super high quality and you can tell they put time and effort into everyone’s dish. Best French food in Calgary!!! Definitely a favourite. ”
“ We had our staff party here, and it was exceptional — not just for the stunning food, but the incredible service. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome. They anticipated what we needed before we even had to ask. Every course was beautifully paced, and the team handled our large group with such grace and warmth. The food was, of course, phenomenal — the duck and scallops were standouts, and the welcome cocktail was spot on. Even finished the meal with a small drink that everyone raved about!! It felt less like a restaurant and more like being hosted in someone’s elegant Parisian home. Truly a five-star experience. ”
“ Lovely place. The staff is attentive and kind. The layout is cozy and welcoming. Unexpectedly peaceful for being located off such a busy road. Was recently here for a staff party and they did brilliantly for serving such a large group. My drinks never went empty and the food was delicious. I could've just had 5 back to back servings of the duck or their pea soup, I would.. Will have to come back for a more personal time at this wonderful place. Merci. Merci. J'ai ADORE! J’espere que je serai de retour bientot. ”
“ Classic French with Alberta prime! Owner run bistro serving all the French classics with some first class Alberta produce - a winning combo! Booked for Tuesday evening, bustling when we arrived to welcoming staff and a menu of bistro classics. All dishes were well prepared and presented. A delightful venue for our most enjoyable family get-together. ”
