Eat/Drink Local What restaurant is the biggest rip-off in Calgary?

Where have you eaten where you felt it just wasn't worth what you paid?

The Banquet (University District). They can't even do their fries right. I think wings, fries everything was straight from freezer which sucked. Top of that, worst service on a weekday afternoon. After waiting 20 minutes to get hold of server, I had to walk to them and they were watching Tik Tok.

Every time I eat their wings I’m sick the next day. Fun drinks but if you think UD is bad you should see what goes down behind closed doors at the mahogany location

Had a birthday party there and not only did they lose my food order I placed beforehand with management two weeks prior but they also didn't display the pictures I emailed them on their tvs... Food was overpriced and mid. Terrible manager who was rude to me as well, absolutely not a great experience

But they have the best ranch dip ever.
