We had not heard of this restaurant before but it was part of a Vine and Dine 6 course meal and wine pairings. The food was delicious and well presented. Apparently owned by a couple of which chef Jenny works her magic in the kitchen.

Another GREAT dinner at Vero Bistro Moderne. This time it was the Surf and Turf - a meal that included steak, frites, lamb, mac and cheese and of course a lobster tail. Did I mention the lovely starter salad? Our server Chad helped us make...some key decisions on what to order and looked after us while we were there. I’d continue writing but I’m only allowed 2000 characters in this review and that won’t be enough for all the good things I have to say about Vero.More

We checked the menu on the website and decided the bistro was a nice choice for sharing appetizers and a few entrees amongst us. We rarely order desert. To our surprise, the menu at the restaurant had nothing to do with the advertised one. It...was a “special” 3 course (appetizer/entree/desert) very expensive menu which ruined our plans. We decided to stay but the food was simply not great - not worth the bill. Very disappointing. Please update your website with accurate information.More

We were on vacation in Calgary, and we found Vero Bistro on line, while planning our trip. The reviews were great, and I must say they were right. We shared the crab spring roll, which was different and tasty. I had the Alberta lamb entree...and my husband had the garganelli, pasta dish. They were both excellent. My lamb dish was one of the best I have ever had. Our server, Chad was friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. Even though we were full, we wanted to try a dessert - we shared their ricotta cheese cake, which was wonderful, light and the perfect end to our meal. If we ever find ourselves visiting Calgary again, we will definitely come back.More

Had a fantastic family dinner at Vero. Dinner is always excellent and we were really looking forward to it. They accommodated my vegetarian children with amazing selections. Everyone was more than satisfied with the fantastic food. Service was excellent and very friendly. We have been...several times in the past, and we will continue to go and definitely recommend to anyone who will listen :) Amazing restaurant!More

Very good Italian food, the Tartare was very well prepared pasta was cooked perfectly and with care had the Agnolotti with pork ragù which was Flavourful and we'll seasoned, the only disappointment was the buratta which was dry and lacking the creaminess I am accustomed...at the price point for that dish I honestly expected a fresher product. Service was professionalMore

We had a booking mishap in the summer and was able to get a reservation this past weekend. I was with my coworkers and boss and we all agree that our dinner was an awesome experience, from service to ambience and to the quality and...taste of the food. We heard that their Steak and Frites were to 'die for' and all of us ordered it and yes, it was just that. Mouth watering morsels of meat that melted in your mouth, marinated, cooked and grilled to perfection and presented on a board with truffle parmesan fries, chimichurri and sprinkled with arugula. I'm getting hungry just typing those words out!! It was just that delicious!! Due to the miscommunication with our previous booking, Michael offered us all desserts. I had the tiramisu and it was light, fluffy and oh so yummy!! Perfect ending to the perfect meal. Thank you, Michael :)! As soon as I was in the car, I texted my family group chat and friends group chat that we had to check out Vero Bistro. And as soon as I got home, hubby asked if I had any left overs lol! And, yes, I always make sure I have leftovers for my 'self proclaimed master chef'. He quickly heated up the meat, just enough so it's not overcooked, as I had asked for 'medium' and was silently chewing for a few minutes. I know that when he's speechless, he is enjoying every bite and also analyzing what the ingredients were in the marinade. Between bites, he says, 'miso', 'mirin', etc. lol. His conclusion was that we just need to go to Vero Bistro for our next date night. We will be back very soon. (Also posted on other sites)More
