I got to know about this registry through a friend, and I must say, it's one of the best experiences I've ever had. The staff were incredibly friendly and professional. A special shout-out to the driver examiner with the shades—he guided me through my test and really helped boost my confidence.

This is by far one of the best registries and examiners I've encountered. Highly recommended—definitely give this place a try!

This is the best registry with truly professional staff. I live in the NE, but I choose to leave all the nearby registries and drive a long way just to come here — and it’s absolutely worth it. They complete everything within seconds. I visited today for a prorate service, and Cass assisted me. She is extremely professional and knows how to get the job done quickly and perfectly. I highly recommend everyone to visit this registry if they want fast and flawless service.

I was sent here to upgrade my Licence through my employer. And since that first visit I have come back for a couple other things on my own. They are now my favorite registery as they are very fast, professional and the building is nice on the inside.

Excellent service and driver instructor for the road test class 5!!! My son felt at ease and comfortable right away! This experience was so good, I think I will be coming here for all of my services!

I always go to this registry unless I need one a on a Sunday. Once I visited another because it happened to be near where I was at the time— mistake. Gave me some run around and asking for documents that were irrelevant. I went to this registry instead, was in and out in 5 mins. Knowledgeable staff who know what they are doing! Great people to work with. Go here if you can.

Adam was fantastic!! He was so wonderful for my daughter’s grade 9 grad. He took my group of silly teenagers around downtown, stopped at several places for photos and made sure they had a great time. Thank you so much for helping make incredible memories!

We booked AMPM for my son's 13th birthday celebration. We were very lucky to receive a surprise upgrade to the truck limo (the kids were pumped!) Our driver Reg was fantastic; so enthusiastic and made the kids' afternoon a blast. Thank you for an awesome experience!

I would highly recommend AM PM limo service! We recently hired them to take us to celebrate my mom’s birthday - her 1st time in a limo at 75! Our driver Afu arrived 5 minutes early. He was very friendly and courteous. He encouraged us to play whatever music we liked. He took us to a great spot overlooking downtown and was very patient taking photos for us. We felt safe driving with him. The limo itself was very clean and still had that “new car smell” - a great experience overall! Thanks Afu!

Afu drove our family from Banff to Glacier and it was a wonderful experience! He was a very safe driver who was incredibly professional, kind, and thoughtful. He allowed us to make stops for snacks and bathroom breaks as it was a long scenic drive. I would highly recommend using the AM/PM services and request Afu if that is an option. 10/10 would ride with them again

I got my daughter and her friends a limo for grad and Adam was absolutely amazing!! He was on time, very personable and very patient with the 12 teen grads while taking photos lol
Our whole experience from start to finish, was phenomenal!!
Next limo I get I will most definitely be requesting Adam!!

My niece went to this office and there was a mistake in the system so they would not give her a road test but they took her money and refused to give her the test or return her money. This young lady was spoken to rudely and repeatedly talked down to, refused to let her speak with the supervisor. She went to another registry and they straightened everything out for her in ten minutes. I am pissed, I have been a member with AMA for 23 years and have always had exemplary service with the nicest manners and professionalism. I am disgusted with this treatment of my niece but this office. AMA you should be ashamed

They prioritize members in line and let the non members wait for more than an hour even though we came and registered first with the front desk. We have been ama member for three years and just cancelled last year because we find the services not beneficial for us. Everyone in line left already and just us waiting.

The new AMA Westbrook location is a huge step up from the previous spot. What a fantastic upgrade! The space looks modern, clean, and thoughtfully designed. They’ve clearly streamlined the service delivery too.

I especially love the monitors that show your information and what unit you’re waiting for. It makes the whole process super easy to follow. The check-in system was smooth, and everything felt very efficient.

The services are always great—never any issue there. Staff are friendly, helpful, and things run like clockwork.

The only thing I’d suggest improving is the wayfinding after check-in. It’s not immediately clear there’s a second seating area around the corner, and I noticed a few people (myself included!) looking a bit confused about where to go. Some simple signage would go a long way.

Overall, it looks great and feels like a big improvement. Well done, AMA!

Saturday 1130am and only two of the five wickets are staffed for registry services. Both extremely slow moving and waiting several times for a third persons help (supervisor?)

In between helping the two employees the third person avoided eye contact or communicating with anyone in the line up of at least 8-10 people waiting for service. She kept moving back and forth between empty work stations ‘fixing’ something (must’ve been a top priority rather than the waiting persons)

After a 35 minute wait it’s finally my turn and I’m turned away without service, which could have been avoided had anyone communicated with the waiting people in line.

Very very poor service, disappointing no one addressed any waiting person.

Waiting is usually assumed, and not a dealbreaker but leaving several people in line for 30+ minutes without any acknowledgement, apology, or effort to do anything to better serve the line is unacceptable.

Retrain your supervisors/managers, cross train other department staff to step in and help, or schedule enough staff to fill the workstations for your peak days of the month.

Will not return.

This is a location I go to to deal with passport pictures, any kind of travel, insurance, and for extra roadside coverage. The staff there are very helpful and accommodating. I rarely have to wait much longer than a few minutes, as they seem highly trained, and efficient at working with the clientele. at my last visit, I had passport pictures done and dealt with Alexandria. She was so friendly and enjoyable, to converse with!

Amandine Bakery is one of Calgary’s best spots for fresh, delicious baked goods! From breads and pastries to specialty cakes, everything is made with care and authentic flavor. You can taste the quality in every bite.
The staff are welcoming and always helpful, making the experience warm and inviting. Whether you’re picking up a treat with your coffee or ordering a cake for a special occasion, Amandine Bakery never disappoints.
Highly recommend this bakery to anyone who loves fresh, beautifully made desserts and breads!

We got to try a dozen of their fruit tarts and they were very enjoyable. The tarts themselves were crispy and were covered with a dark chocolate layer. The fruits were sweetened on the outside as well. It was a nice mixture of textures between the soft custard, crispy tart, and fruit.

In terms of proportions of the tart, I would have preferred a thinner crust (and more custard in the tart) and it was sometimes hard to appreciate the custard due to the chocolate overpowering it.

I look forward to trying out some of their other baked goods in the future!

Me and my husband got this cake for my cousin’s welcome. There was a hair in this cake.

The girls did not smile once while serving us. It was very unwelcoming environment.

This happened on August 23.

I've been buying sandwiches here occasionally for the past few months, normally they are fantastic, but what i bought today shocked me. I had already eaten 3/4 sandwiches before realizing there was MOLD growing on the cheese and ham in small amounts. absolutely disgusting and unacceptable. will not be returning.

*this review is for our most recent experience only*

We have been ordering birthday cakes from them for awhile now, and never had any issues - always order for pick up at 10, on a Saturday, and the cakes are always delicious.

Last week, however, when I went to pick up a birthday cake for my son, the cake was still not ready at 10:45 (same for the gentleman in front of me), while I saw a lot of cakes in the fridge for 10 AM pick up. It was finally ready at 11 (no explanations offered on why it was late), and while it looked okay at first, there are signs of “being rushed” upon close inspection. The bottom had couple places that were “caved” in, cake crumbled as soon as I cut into it, the cake/sponge itself was extremely dry, and the cake just did not taste very good.

We will continue to be a customer, but I hope this won’t happen to us again.

This business absolutely deserves the 5 stars! This is really the address to go to if you are looking for a place where to print quality cards for your special event! They offer a large choice of amazingly beautiful cards at a fair price. I met with Ricky who was very professional, kind and truly helpful! I am fully satisfied with the printing and the service. I 100% recommend!

Ricky did the invitations, menus, seating charts, and programs for my wedding and was amazing to work with. He is extremely professional, always prompt with any order, and extremely detail oriented to ensure quality work. He spent time with me to go over all details and we received so many compliments on our wedding stationary. Fantastic company that printed out many items for me in a variety of designs. Thank you Amazing Cards!

First of all I really Appreciate the professional Ethics I I got from Ricky, hence the Company. I just received my wedding invitation cards and they are wonderful and very reasonably priced. I recommend this company to anyone that needs all kinds of cards. Thank you for being one of the successful experience of our wedding.
L£G.

I have had a great experience using Amazing Cards. This relates not only to the quality of the cards, but also to the colour palette used, the intricate design, and the meticulous art of paper-cutting. They have excited on many elegant and ornamental cards. You will literally want to keep these cards to treasure forever.

Great selection of cards with reasonable prices! Very good customer service. Good quality of cards. Ricky is very professional. Thank you making my wedding cards!

AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE- We asked for MILAN to help with all our Grad Day activities and he is the most friendly and helpfull person. This was the second time Milan has helped our Daughter with a special occasion it feels like part of the family now. The booking staff was so easy helping me accomodate the variety of trips needed, as well as the multiple changes I needed to make , always happy to help. An absolute fantastic company and staff to work with. GREAT JOB !

The team at ambassador limousine is lovely, Madeline helped me today, and she made my
First time booking a limousine very easy and she was very patient with all my questions and very clear when going over the details of my booking and helping me get exactly what I need. Thanks again Madeline!

UPDATE: just had my ride and our drivers name was milan and he was absolutely wonderful accommodating every need, making sure we had a very comfortable ride, he was very friendly and funny all around amazing experience I definitely will be back!

Absolutely the best service--use Ambassador every year for our annual holiday friends and family Christmas tradition, and we love our experience every time! Milan has been our driver 2 years in a row and we could not ask for a better driver and will be requesting him EVERY year. Thanks so much Ambassador!

I'm an anxious traveler especially when several times have to be met e.g. flight connections. Ambassador was on time and even wait inside the airport with our names when we returned at 3:00am.. Kami was very professional and a safe driver. Thanks Ambassador, we'll use your services again next time.

My family and I were visiting the Banff, Canmore, Golden area and opted to use Ambassador for the day to make driving and parking stress free. Milan was excellent, on time, friendly, knowledgable of the area. We added a number of stops to our day based on his recommendations!! This was my second time using Ambassador and will continue to do so any time I visit the area.

I recently attended a floral arrangement workshop here, and it was absolutely delightful! Monique was warm, engaging, and made the entire experience both fun and relaxing. She shared helpful tips throughout, and her passion for flowers really shone through. The final bouquet (pictured in the third photo) is hands-down the most beautiful one I’ve ever made—or received! I left feeling inspired and can’t wait to sign up for more workshops in the future. Highly recommend!

Thank you,. I received some flowers that weren't the freshest and they didn't make it after just a couple days. It was a very hot day (32c) and the delivery came with the cello bag was dried out so possibly too many deliveries that day. However, the customer service at umbrella is always so fantastic. They redelivered the flowers today and they look magnificent. Thank you very much for your excellent customer service and always making it right. I very much appreciate it.

I used Amborella for my wedding flowers and was so thrilled with the how everything turned out. The ordering process was so easy and they were responsive leading up to the wedding. The website ordering is supposed to be a bit less personal with no consultation but they included everything I asked for. The flowers looked great when they showed up and beautiful throughout the day. I’d recommend Amborella to any bride looking for great value and an easy process with florals! 🤍

Just attended the BYOV workshop last Friday. Although my friend and I had a good time and both left with beautiful bouquets majority of our flowers began to die 3 days later. I had roses and snapdragons that did not last. At $10 a bloom I would have expected to get more time out of them. Most of the flower selections were already in full bloom and some looked on their way out. Maybe these workshops help them get rid of old stock? I don't think what I got was worth the price I paid for only 3 days of life.

Amborelle Floral did an amazing job with my wedding flowers! The arrangements were absolutely beautiful—timeless, elegant, and exactly what I envisioned. On the day of the wedding, they handled the drop-off seamlessly, which was such a relief and took one less stress away. The flowers were delivered on time and set up perfectly, allowing me to focus on enjoying my big day. Highly recommend using this floral shop.

Stayed 2 nights, loved it. Most and foremost, the staff. Everyone we interacted with went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable as possible. It's an older hotel, located on a busy intersection, and the windows are old and thin. However we were not bothered by street noises. Our room had a door directly into a next room. Of course it was locked, but it was not soundproof, so we heard our neighbours watching a TV show with non-stop screaming girls. Wasn't too bad, and it ended at some point. The restaurant is currently under renovation, but there are numerous food options in the area, and many at great prices. There is a gym and a functioning swimming pool with no showers, washrooms, or change rooms. I gave it 5 stars not because this was the best hotel we've ever been to, but because of the price-quality ratio and the staff attitude.

Would never stay at this hotel again!!!! The area is very shady. The hotel is very dirty and smells. The room was dirty and very outdated. Very tiny rooms. Felt like you were staying in a dingy basement.

There is an elevator but you can’t get to it from the lobby with your bell hop cart. You have to go outside the building down a fairly steep hill in the parking lot.

If I could give this hotel zero stars I would !!!!

• Very poor cleanliness: bathtub peeling, dirty carpet, dusty curtains and windows.
• Shower water pressure too strong, sprays out of curtain.
• Toilet old, toiletries low quality.
• Kettle full of limescale, coffee machine dirty – old grounds in my drink.
• Bed sunken and uncomfortable, no plug on one side.
• Thin walls, very noisy.
• No lift – had to carry heavy suitcases upstairs.

Overall: Not worth the stay. Would not recommend

This place felt like a luxury stay to me very clean, private, and comfortable, with a nice shower and toiletries provided. I know others may have different standards, but after a long 16 hour flight and a few meetings...it was exactly what I needed. The location is convenient, right by the highway and only about 10 minutes to downtown by train. Worth the price for sure, and check-in/check-out were smooth.

Pathetic service
It’s really bad experience
We checked in around 11:00 pm on 20th September for two nights, they allotted room 116 but the AC was not working we try to call at the reception but the phone was not working so we went to the reception and they said we provide you the portable AC and what they provide us 1 small Fan so we again went to the reception so they changed our room to 128. And the AC of room 128 was also not working so we called at reception so he said we provide you the portable AC as soon as possible and they provide two fans around 1:05 am. It’s too late for us so we adjust that day. On 21st September they shifted us to 310 and the good thing is portable AC is already placed here. But the problem is Hot water is not coming in Morning. We need to checked out early but the hot water is not coming so we stuck here and not matching our plans.
Please don’t book this facility as all rooms conditions are not good , service is really poor and the reception guy is rude here.
Zero star for sure. We are really upset.

Amre Supply has been a huge gift when needing an emergency part. They always seem to have it in stock. Great staff, friendly environment, clean and a huge selection of product. I would highly recommend Amre to anyone and everyone. Replaced the old capacitor with a brand new one on my AC.

We had a great experience today at Amre Supply! We have been looking all over the place for a very specific part on a very specific dishwasher. David knew exactly what we were looking for (even though we didn’t have a model number…) and had it on hand! I’m impressed, we will definitely come back!

Needed a sacrificial anode for my water heater and found of Google that these guys had one. I was super happy dealing with David Mowser, he recommended I also replace the heat trap insert, and put a drip cap on my water outlet. Very happy with the pro plumbing service and that they had the parts for my tank. Definitely coming back.

Amre Supply is an amazing store for home repairs. They carry stuff that you can't find anywhere else! The have helped me out of a bind a few times. Many thanks to Lester for his expert help on my last visit!

Excellent assistance from the Service Desk team today. Went to Retail stores looking for bath fan replacement, nothing in the size I needed. Was provided AMRE Supply to check with. Needed older bath fan motor, had the fan motor assembly in stock. Thank you!

We had an affair to remember cater our wedding last week and I cannot say enough great things! From the beginning they were so kind and helpful. Throughout the planning process they were quick to respond, willing to do whatever they could do make things easier for us, and always happy to help. The food was nothing short of amazing! It was some of the best food I have ever had and our guests loved it too! I would also like to acknowledge how fantastic the servers/ bartenders were as well. You could tell they loved their job and were happy to be there helping our day run smoothly. They were all so kind, personable, and really went above and beyond. I cannot say enough great things and I am so thrilled that An Affair to Remember was part of our special day.

We had no clue what we needed or wanted for our parents anniversary party. From the moment I called it was seamless. They thought of things our family didn’t! The prices were affordable. Most importantly the service from the first call, the event for set up, during, after was first class. We actually got to spend time with our guests.
Never again will I cater a family function
Thank you

We had a great lunch from An Affair to Remember. The service was fantastic, communication was prompt and clear, pricing was fair, and food was great! Will defnitely use again! Thank you so much!

An Affair to Remember served us for our October 2024 wedding. The prices are transparent, the food is delicious, the drinks are poured quick, the staff are friendly and professional, and everything was packed up at the end of the night for us to take home. Josh and Matt were so helpful and accommodating with our last-minute menu changes. My wine glass was never empty and my plate was cleared very shortly after I finished my food (which was great since we had playing cards at our tables for our guests). Despite running around, socializing, and dancing I always made time to enjoy the food too.

The only thing I'll warn people is that the invoice does not include the gratuity fee (which technically is great financially, but it was something I missed initially). Please read the red ink and include the suggested gratuity if you can, I promise they deserve it. I happily recommend them to anyone and will likely use them again in the future for any catering needs.

Thank you again to Josh, Matt and the An Affair to Remember staff team for serving us on one of the best days of our lives!

They should be called An Affair NOT to remember. Used them during Stampede and the food was terrible. I was embarrassed to offer this to my guests. Never again will I order from them.

The food was great. We both love Mexican food, and honestly the great reviews influenced the choice to go here. Our server was great and took good care of us. The atmosphere was authentic. We could see many others clearly having a good time and the place was surprisingly busy for a Monday evening.

We shared the house salsa tasting platter, and a platter of 6 tacos. The food was excellent all around. I especially enjoyed the tasting selection of salsa, dips, and chips (warm chips!). Of course we also each had a margarita - him the mango, and me the blood orange.

I would definitely come back if I were in Calgary again. I highly recommend this restaurant. A++

My boyfriend and I came here for the first time and we were blown away! The food was amazing, so flavorful and fresh, and the service was just as great. We were greeted right away and taken care of the entire time, which made the whole experience even better. Definitely one of the best Mexican restaurants we’ve been to, and we’ll 100% be coming back! 🌮✨

Had a lovely girls’ lunch here🌮 We really enjoyed the 🥑tableside guacamole — it was super flavorful and fun to 👀watch them make it fresh right in front of us.

The lunch special✨ came with two tacos and a small portion of chips — just the right amount.

Inside, there’s an entire wall of wine🍾 and a super extensive drink menu!

With the warm weather, everyone was sitting outside — it’s 🐶pet-friendly too, which we loved.

We visited Añejo on a Sunday afternoon during happy hour, and although it was quite busy both inside and out on the patio, we were lucky enough to get a table without a long wait, even without a reservation. The atmosphere was lively but welcoming, and our server, Abraham, was absolutely amazing! He was warm, professional, and attentive. He really took great care of us and made the whole experience even better :)

One of the highlights was definitely the fresh guacamole! If you order it, they bring all the ingredients to your table and make it right in front of you. You can even choose how smooth or chunky you want it, which adds such a fun and personalized touch. It’s not just about the flavor (which was incredible), but also about the experience of seeing it made fresh right there at the table.

We ordered some Mexican dishes, tacos, quesadillas, and a round of margaritas and tequila. Everything was full of flavor and came out hot and satisfying. It was the perfect way to enjoy a weekend afternoon, great food, great drinks, and a team that really makes you feel welcome.
Highly recommend!

We went during happy hour and got a variety of tacos and guacamole with tortilla chips. The guacamole and chips were good, but the tacos were just okay. There are definitely better taco spots in the city for less, even during happy hour. Service was good, atmosphere was also good, moderate noise.

I have to give five starts to the restaurant and its wonderful staff. They coped with a table of eight with ease. We had a lovely table where we could see into the kitchen (without the kitchen smells), had keen attention from our delightful server and our tired, yet enthusiastic group was offered everything we needed. Vegetarians and vegans were given options and the rest of us had plenty to choose from. The food was amazing, just what we needed. The atmosphere is very congenial to a lovely evening with good friends. Thank you.

Have the lasagna which was one of the most uninspired lasagnas I've ever had it was completely Bland we had to add a lot of salt and spices to try and get it some flavor. The best thing on the appetizer menu was the meatballs they were outstanding very tasty some of the best we've ever had. I would not recommend the beet salad they were not crunchy and they had very mild flavor there are much better beets to be found than this. The Bolognese pasta was pretty plain and lacking flavor. The restaurant was comfortable and it was a great place to have a conversation over lunch

Charming ambience and a lovely crowd of ladies enjoying lunch! The Italian cuisine here offers a good selection of dishes. I tried their Pasta Scarpetta, and it was al dente perfection - truly delicious! Service was reasonable, especially considering it was a busy weekday lunch. Overall, a great spot to grab a satisfying meal.

What an amazing spot! The homemade pizzas, pastas, and desserts are all made with so much care — everything tastes fresh and full of flavor. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, and the staff make you feel right at home. The wine list is incredible too, with something perfect to pair with every dish. Can’t wait to come back again!

Had an absolute blast at this place; the food was great, the music was upbeat, and the service was friendly.

The focaccia was fantastic, though very dry. The whipped ricotta did a good job of balancing the dryness and the honey was a great addition.

The campanelle was fantastic, super creamy and cooked al dente. Beet salad could do with a bit more, it was on the bland side; perhaps some tartness to bring out the muted flavours.

Overall, fantastic restaurant and great location - very central and a block away from the Jack Singer theatre. Will be back.

I had an amazing experience at Anthony’s Jewellers. They crafted a beautiful bracelet for my nephew, and the quality was outstanding. The staff was incredibly friendly and provided top-notch service. I also appreciated how quickly the bracelet was ready. Highly recommend!

I had a great experience at Anthony Jewellers, I had Rose assisting me. I was able to find what I was looking for at a great price! I loved that it she was helpful and knowledgeable without being pushy.
Will be back!

Went into the store to get an estimate for repairs and sizing of two rings. The ladies there were so helpful. We had both ring correctly sized and repaired. The workmanship is excellent and the price was excellent. I will be sending everyone i know here from now on

Rose was amazing. I had damaged a stone in my ring and was very upset. She tried and The jewewler tried to find a stone to’ match It was hard but they found a beautiful saphire. The ring with this stone Is beautiful. Awesome job. Highly recommend.

I walked into Anthony’s looking for a chain for my pendant. I was helped by Theresa, a very friendly sales lady. Theresa was very knowledgeable about gold! She educated me on the different karats and durability of certain types of gold. I found a chain that was perfect for my pendant, and was very satisfied with my experience. I would definitely recommend Anthony’s for your jewellery needs, and they have good sales too.

A wonderful place to relax! The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, with every detail thoughtfully arranged. The service was excellent, and the hosts were incredibly hospitable and caring. We truly felt at home and can’t wait to come back again!

My husband surprised me with the Busy Bees Package for my birthday, and it was a wonderful and much-needed experience. It was the perfect escape and gave me a chance to have some amazing "me time." The entire session was incredibly satisfying and so relaxing. ​Julia was also lovely and made sure I felt comfortable and cared for. I can't wait to go back again soon!

My sisters and I treated ourselves to a birthday party at Aquarius Spa. It was a delightful experience, that included a steam room, sauna, body polishing and facials. We also had the use of a multi-purpose room that had a massage chair, karaoke, and board games/cards. The host was extraordinary, and also gave me a treatment that involved whipping me with oak leaves tied together that helps with blood circulation. Wonderful time was had by all. Thank you so much for a great birthday!

I had a great experience here. it was peaceful, great herbal tea and just a nice place to forget my thoughts. by the time i was ready for my facial, i could hardly keep my eyes open and missed it haha i was so relaxed to fall asleep with a complete stranger. highly recommend.

We went here for team building. What an experience! We were greeted with juices teas/coffees and sweets! (In the picture only sweets and juices). We had lots of fun with the karaoke, steam room, sauna (which we had with the whipping of leaves for better blood circulation, HIGHLY recommend to try that too!). Some had facials done, some had body scrubs. We all left like brand new! Highly recommend.

My experience with the customer service provided by the store manager in this shop was extremely disappointing. I was in the store to purchase some jellycat then found out that the cashier overcharged by accident. This is not a problem because mistakes happens. When I returned to the store the cashier was kind to refund the differences. Unfortunately the debit machine was not able to offer a refund. Then I asked if the store would be able to refund the differences in cash. The store manager said no they don’t have cash in the store and refused to provide further assistance. Throughout the whole interaction the cashier was helpful and she tried her best to reconcile. The store manager was unfortunately the opposite. I am less bothered by the overcharge than the manager’s attitude. She was very rude and unprofessional and does not understand the values of customer service.

Shopping is more than a transaction, it is an experience. I don’t not recommend anyone to buy from this store.

Purchased an item via eBay that arrived damaged; after arranging an agreement to receive a refund (confirmation messages that a refund has been issued have been saved), no refund has been received in over 4 months of contact with this seller/shop. In addition, they requested I send them my original certificate of authenticity to which I complied. They now have the means to request a new item from the distributor while also keeping my money. As of today, additional contact attempts have been ignored or excuses have been made. The item being sold as new was not new as the packaging was old and worn, the item was damaged/broken, and it was sent with pieces glued on upside down and no effort to make right has been resolved. They have my money, I have a $315 broken piece of junk. Buyer beware; they are a dishonest merchant at best.

Great little store in heart of Calgary. Bought alot of vintage car and automotive decorations there. Owner was awesome & gave great deals. Supplied most of my auto mechanic shop store front in one buy. Will be there again for sure. They even delivered an item I was waiting to complete my collection.

An absolute gem. I LOVE this place. The staff are awesome and the items are very unique and well priced. One of the few remaining shops of its kind ❤️

Shop here regularly. Love the place. I always find something interesting. Lamp Berger superstore!

Britta was absolutely amazing! She did makeup for my wedding for myself and 7 bridesmaids. She made everyone feel beautiful and listened to each girl on what they wanted, and she delivered exactly that. She was professional, hilarious, and great at what she does. She always made me feel comfortable and beautiful. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a makeup artist!

Britta is amazing. I’m always scared about other people doing my makeup but she did it beautifully and it lasted all for 14+ hours. She’s professional but makes you feel calm and relaxed. Can’t wait to get another opportunity to get my makeup done by her again.

Britta was so fun to have do my
makeup on my wedding day. Truly a refreshing personality that goes with great makeup talents. The makeup wore beautifully, didn’t feel heavy yet lasted ALL DAY. even through the tears.

Britta was incredibly kind, hospitable, and down to earth. Her positive disposition and welcoming energy made my bridal makeup trial and day of so special and enjoyable. Britta was so accommodating and made my dream makeup look come to life for my special day. Her experience and knowledge of different skin types and looks makes you feel so at ease in her very capable hands!

Amazing experience having makeup by Britta! She listened to my requests, accommodated changes to make the look just right, and the end result was perfect! And it was a fun time chatting throughout! Definitely recommend Britta! I would definitely book her again in the future!

The owner and the staff are amazing. They are always upfront and willing to help and assist.

Thank you so much for all your service and help.

I recently attended an Iftar buffet at Astoria, priced at a steep $40 per person. While the organizers had advertised a tempting menu featuring Mansaf chicken, lentil soup, fattoush, hummus, fatteh, and kibbeh tray, the reality fell shockingly short.

The food quality was alarmingly subpar—closer to what you'd reluctantly accept from a $10 buffet, not something priced at four times that amount. Even more frustrating was the glaring lack of food: critical dishes vanished rapidly, leaving many guests, myself included, unable to even sample essentials like kibbeh or harissa. Instead of the usual two trays of the same item for a large gathering of people (>70 estimate), they had one tray, so also took forever to get the food (that was mostly gone) and it was stone cold by the time I was eating it.

The Mansaf chicken was frankly unacceptable—mostly plain rice sparsely garnished with tiny, pathetic slivers of chicken resembling leftover shawarma trimmings. The fattoush tasted stale and lifeless, and as for the fatteh, I managed only a smidge as we were forced to ration spoonfuls among us, desperately trying to salvage something from the situation—and even then, it was entirely devoid of protein. I filled up on Hummus and Baba Ghanoush (also ran out). I ate food maybe worth $8 in total.

Given the high price and the significance of the event, Astoria's performance was embarrassingly inadequate—easily the worst buffet experience I've ever had in Canada or anywhere else. Astoria urgently needs to reconsider its standards and show greater respect for its guests to avoid repeating such a disappointing experience. Unfortunately, I anticipate Astoria's response will simply dismiss this feedback, as they've done with other dissatisfied customers, implying somehow that all their customers are wrong and only the owners are correct.

By far the nicest looking venue in all of Calgary AB. I booked it for my reception early August. The owner Rana was very easy to work with. The contract was easy to understand and the food was phenomenal! And there was someone at the reception watching over us to make sure we had everything we needed without interrupting us. We highly recommend this venue.

This hall is very beautiful and big inside, it has a lot of parking. It's close to the main road McKnight and deerfoot Road.

The worst dining experience we've ever had! We attended the Egyptian community iftar at Astoria, advertised as an open buffet—which typically means plentiful food with continuous refills. However, once the trays were empty, they were never refilled. When we addressed the issue, the owner kept blaming the organizer, claiming they agreed on the menu. But did they also agree to starve the guests and not refill the food?

After speaking with the organizers, we discovered the truth: it was entirely Astoria's negligence. This restaurant clearly doesn't care about its reputation or providing quality service to the community. They assumed people wouldn't speak up, but now all families are ready to share their terrible experience.

Instead of deflecting blame, Astoria should have taken responsibility and apologized for their poor service. This level of unprofessionalism is unacceptable, and the damage to their reputation is well-deserved. Avoid this place if you value your time, money, and dignity.
The taste of food bad and not fresh ,cold .
The food finished before all people eat.
The way to reserve the food so bad 👎

Nadiya is knowledgeable, professional, and able to instantly assess the best solution. Extremely competent and highly recommend!

I had a twill coat altered and the results were amazing—it looked like I had bought it that way! It felt amazing to wear something tailored for a petite person like me and it fit just right. Right away, she assessed that the buttons were too nice to move, so she suggested adjusting from the shoulders instead, which turned out perfectly.

She also worked on a beloved dress that was starting to fray at the sleeves, and not only fixed it but made the sleeve bigger and adjusted the keyhole. I'm glad I can keep the dress and adjusted to my preferences.

I can’t thank Nadiya enough for the incredible work she did on my wedding dress! I needed alterations done quickly, and she absolutely saved the day. She listened so carefully to exactly what I wanted and made sure every detail was perfect. Not only did she finish everything in such a short time, but the quality of her work was amazing—it looked like the dress was made just for me!

On top of that, her prices are very affordable, especially for the level of care and skill she provides. I’m beyond excited that my dress fits perfectly now, all thanks to her. Highly recommend Nadiya to anyone in need of alterations—you’ll be in great hands!

I’m very satisfied with Nadia’s work! I needed a difficult colorful embroidery at the very thin and synthetic material and Nadia’ve done just perfect!

Highly recommend her as a professional. I’ll be back for her services for sure.

I got an appointment so quickly after booking. I came in for a fitting, alterations were done so quickly. I even called and asked to have sooner (anxious bride) no issues, and was done. She was very professional, friendly and talented ! My wedding dress is perfect !! Also, we noticed a small rip (from the actual dress company) and she fixed it in the spot, no hassle and no extra charge.

Working with Nadiia was an absolute joy! She’s incredibly talented, easy to communicate with, and delivered everything right on time. She took my vision and brought it to life beautifully—while also offering thoughtful suggestions that made the dress even more stunning and comfortable. I felt amazing on my wedding day thanks to her work. I can’t recommend her highly enough!
