If you’re looking for real barbecue flavour and a no-nonsense menu, look no further than Holy Smoke Barbecue and Smoke Pit. Located in an industrial park and only open for lunch, this place serves up all the barbecued meat you can eat

We can’t help but love Chef Michael Noble’s Calgary restaurant, NOtaBLE. It’s comfortable and cozy and describes itself as serving gourmet comfort food. And the name's pretty awesome to boot, no?
