Reviews of Chairman's Steakhouse
from GoogleA refined steak experience. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, including the bathroom - it is very fancy. They have a wide variety of cuts and the staff will explain each cut and offering to you in depth, if you wish. Service was top notch, as was to be expected. For appetizer we got the cheese toast and the flambéed bone marrow. The cheese toast wasn’t worth it, I have had much better elsewhere. The bone marrow was rich and delicious and is served with French baguette, pickled onion and chimichurri. We got the smoked bone in ribeye to share, and it was perfect! There is a good selection of sauces and sides, our favourite was double bacon jus. The Mac and cheese was good, but the table favourite was the Brussels sprouts. The Potato Rösti was recommended to us, but it reminded me of a giant hash brown and wasn’t anything special. For dessert we were recommended the carrot cake and it was super moist and perfect for fall! Overall we would come back for a special occasion, the wow factor of the venue, service, and premium cuts will surely not disappoint!
We came to Chairman’s Steakhouse for a special thank you dinner with close friends who hosted us in Mahogany. We visited on date night, which was really good value, and the service was super friendly. That said, I’m not sure it quite lived up to the hype for me. My steak was ordered medium rare but came out closer to medium, and had more fat than I would have expected. The mash was okay, but not especially memorable 🫤 There was also a bit of unnecessary pretentiousness at check-in, which made the experience feel like it was trying a little too hard. Overall, good value and friendly service, but good rather than great.
Where do I begin... this is by far the best steakhouse I have been to in Calgary. The moment you step into the building you know you are in for a treat. The atmosphere is classy and sophisticated with that good mix of Rural Alberta scattered about offering a beautiful view of mahagony lake while you dine. Our server was amazing. She was personable, knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. Now to the food... we ordered the bone marrow, prawn cocktail and scallops to start and every single one of these dishes was perfect. For mains it would be a sin not to order one of their fabulous steaks. Our server brought a wooden plank with the various cuts to choose from. Although the 60oz Australian waygu was tempting, I dont think we had any room! So we settled for thr rib eye and porterhouse. It was cooked to perfection. For sides we shared the garlic mushrooms, crispy cauliflower, and potato rosti. Needless to say our eyes were bigger than our stomachs! But we did manage to save room for dessert, sticky toffee pudding and the chocolate torte. We had an amazing dinning experience and 1000 percent will be back.
A truly upscale and elegant steakhouse—I wish I could give it 6 out of 5 stars! The restaurant is exceptionally clean, with a sophisticated atmosphere and stunning views of the lake and waterfront. The staff are welcoming, attentive, and professional. One unique touch is that they present a selection of their premium cuts of meat, allowing you to choose exactly what you'd like before it's prepared. The bar area is stylish, and the front and back patios provide excellent seating options. The washrooms are spotless, reflecting the restaurant's high standards. The food is outstanding, the cocktails are expertly crafted, and the overall dining experience is exceptional. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for a memorable steakhouse experience.
Let Me begin with That was totally wickedly awesome. Aside from The Other guests that really did not want anythung to do With my sister Sitting beside Their table or Maybe it was me. All The staff Went above and beyond to make it an Awesome well deserved visit for us. At the first point of contact It was amazing. Matre de Absoluty , checked us in & helped with our parking registration free for the patrons. Then our Server Angelina I beleive it was Explained the menu, all the Kosher/halal. It was kinda cute as my sister is a practicing Muslim I asked for a kosher and we got a halal menu which was better for her. (halal and koser are the same in the eyes of Islam.) We got the crab wellington to start made to perfection. I got the 12oz Sinatra also Skill fully crafted. My sister had the Lamb, and was blown away. Kitchen staff knocked the task out of the park . Dress code in effect so we thought we could not eat there, However the Lounge & bar do not have the dress code in effect. Great job . Was a Beautiful expeirence.
Very beautiful upscale restaurant. Food is delicious overall. The for the lamb dish, the chimichuri, however, should not be blended with a creamy tomato sauce specially when there is already gravy. It's too much too heavy and takes away from the lamb. And hold back on the gravy. There was barely any paesnip pure to enjoy. Appetizers were delicious and well executed. Our waiter was kind of cold, dry and borderline rude. Even if there is just a little bit left, if you see there is still food on the plate, the minimum you should do is ask if the guest if they are done with their dish before whisking it away.
Visited this respectable joint a few times before, and it was always a great experience. We made a reservation several days in advance to celebrate our anniversary. I noted that we will a high chair for our toddler. An hour and a half before our reservation, I received a call from the restaurant, and was told they don't allow children under 10, and that they would have to cancel our reservation. Im all for a restaurant having certain policies to ensure their diners receive a great experience. I would appreciate though, if they mentioned it on their reservation software, or at least call a couple of days before the actual reservation. Very disappointing.
Went here for my birthday, and it was such a beautiful experience. Our Waitress was absolutely wonderful. We didn’t have a single cule about what to order and she was very informative and understanding! She really did make me and my friends feel special! They also have a Halal Menu which is so inclusive and I really did appreciate that. It is more of an experience restaurant, but I believe that the money I spent here was well worth it, this kind of luxurious experience is very hard to come by and the steak just melts in your mouth. 10/10 food 10/10 expensive!
Had an amazing time at the bar thanks to sabi, the little details truly make the experience. Thank you flora !!! What an amazing staff
We first came here to celebrate our anniversary and it was really an excellent experience. The moment we came in, we were impressed with its sophisticated atmosphere, right from the host/hostess up to the servers, they all look presentable and they look like they want to be there (at least the one that welcomed and served us 😆). Then we came back with our kids to celebrate 2 graduations and 2 birthdays. Even our teenage kids are impressed with the place commenting that it looks expensive. 😁 I actually cannot find our reservation, and although it was a busy Friday night, Max was generous to still accommodate us and gave us a table for 4 at the lounge. Our server Ella served us well, when she’s busy at the bar, she made sure that someone still looks after us. The service here levels with the excellence of the food and atmosphere. Speaking of food. On our first time, they took the time to explain to us facts about their steaks. When it was time to order, the low light setting was not a problem because the menu glows, we expected it to be pricey, but it’s much of a difference to other steakhouse that we’ve been to. Although we waited for the food for over an hour, they acknowledged it and gave us complementary desert for our time and for what we are celebrating. We all enjoyed our food and nothing was left on our plates. We will definitely consider coming here again for our special events and celebrations. But don’t just take my experience, you should try it for yourself.
Chairman’s Steakhouse delivered one of the best dining experiences I’ve had. The service was second to none — attentive, professional, and incredibly accommodating from start to finish. One of the highlights was the meat selection board they bring to your table, which really adds to the experience and shows the quality they offer. The steak was absolutely delicious — perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and easily among the best I’ve had. Honestly, everything was top notch, from the food to the atmosphere to the staff. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an outstanding steakhouse experience in Calgary
About Chairman's Steakhouse

The meat selection board
A meat selection board is brought to your table so you can pick your cut in front of you, and it is the highlight for many guests. Visitors say it shows the quality of the meat, and say how you want your steak cooked when you order.
The room and the menu
The room has Rat Pack-inspired decor with rural Alberta touches, and it looks out over Mahogany Lake. Service is attentive and professional. The bone marrow, prawn cocktail and scallops are the starters people mention, and the steaks have their fans.
Before you go
It is a special-occasion place, and the date-night offer is the best value, so booking ahead makes sense. The main dining room has a dress code, but the lounge and bar do not, so you can still eat there if you are not dressed up. Parking is free for guests.
