This small restaurant gets a lot of accolades and it is deserving. The setting is cozy and intimate. I ordered the Alberta Lamb Arrosticini as a starter and the Bucatini Cacio E Pepe In Cheese Basket (Pasta Dish) as my main. The Lamb skewers were tender. The Chili Lime Sea Salt complimented the Lamb well and the dish was flavourful. The Bucatini Cacio E Pepe In Cheese Basket was a very rich and decadent Pasta dish. I enjoyed the flavours very much. The Cheese basket was a nice touch. If you don’t care about calories, this Pasta is worth a try. For dessert I had a Cheesecake, which was constructed in a small jar. While presented nicely, this dessert was hard to eat out of the jar and was very boring in taste. Considering how much I enjoyed my starter and main courses, I expected more from the dessert. Regardless of my thoughts on the dessert, I really enjoyed my meal at this restaurant. The quality, creativity and flavour of the dishes were impressive. Service was attentive, efficient, while not being pretentious. Prices were reasonable for the quality of food served.

We were delightfully surprised when Chef Jenny herself brought the main platter of food (Surf and Turf for Two), which included Grilled Black Angus Beef Tenderloin, herb butter sauce; Grilled Free Range Lamb Chops, Barolo reduction; Butter Poached Lobster Tail; House Made Tortellini, stuffed with roasted pork & vegetables; mortadella, slow-cooked Berkshire pork Bolognese; Signature Coconut Prawns, mango aioli; Truffle Parmesan Frites, lemon aioli; and Roasted Vegetables (eggplant, zucchini)--to our table. Our servers, Michael and Riley, were solicitous without being overbearing. We had a great date night, and a terrific start to our May long weekend.

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.

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)

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.

Thankyou Denis for leaving your review. Yes we definitely offer our 3 course dinner special every Wed and Thurs night which is $59/guest with a few different options to choose from. We do however still offer our regular 'A la carte' menu on these nights. We want to give our guests a fresh approach to a dining experience hence the 3 course with a lovely wine pairing option. The 3 course also comes with an amuse bouche and house made cookies to end. Sorry you did not like your food, but it would be our pleasure to offer you something else if you did not enjoy. Michael

Absolutely divine! My girl and I enjoy dining out and experiencing new restaurants we’ve never been to. Vero was my birthday surprise and wow were we impressed! It’s chic, comfortable and has a great atmosphere. Our server Chad (fellow foodie) treated us so well, suggested favourites from the menu and had perfect wine accompaniments! We enjoyed: olives, bruschetta, calamari, gnocchi, meatballs and the surf & turf. An exquisite dining experience and is truly Mediterranean! This is a special place- great for date nights, foodies or just treating yourself to one of Canada’s best dining experiences. Of all the thousands of places we have enjoyed this is in top all time! Chef Jenny is very talented, strives for excellence and her menu is always amazing! Chef de Service Michael offers warm welcome, impeccable service and a perfectly selected wine/drink list. Vero is a dream team of culinary success! ***rated as one of the Top 100 Best Restaurants in Canada*** I would comfortably state Top 10! Vero is more than a restaurant it is a destination...

Vero… the meaning of being “true” in Italian. Being true to passion, life and seeking joy- what better place to celebrate food and life? Vero Bistro Moderne is a boutique restaurant in the heart of Kensington featuring a locally sourced, farm to table and award winning menu created by Chef Jenny Chan (SAIT, WSET 3) & husband Chef de Service Michael Berg. Set as a cozy and swanky lounge, their focus is high quality ingredients, special imports (wines, cheeses, jamon, etc) and Spanish, French and Italian dishes with a hint of fusion. So dedicated, Chef Jenny and Mike travel Europe in search of new recipes, import partners and new perspectives on dining to grant guests an ultra authentic experience. Whether sipping wines of vineyards they visited, truffles from purveyors they toured or simply mesmerized by her homemade pasta from Italy’s best techniques you can see why Vero is a TOP rated restaurant and a TOP 100! Whenever we wanted a gorgeous dinner, impress a foodie or wanted a lovely take out dinner we ALWAYS came to Vero! With Chef Jenny’s exceptional menu and VIP treatment from Mike, Chad, Jody every guest is instantly a fan, critics are stunned and executives are smitten. It’s classy yet casual, swanky and romantic, lively and intimate- perfect for any occasion 🇨🇦🏆🍸🥩🍇🍷

This was honestly the best steak I've ever had and I've eaten at a lot of high end restaurants. The salad was also amazing with unique ingredients perfectly blended. Excellent service and good value overall.

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.

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.

Vero is one of our favourite restaurants in town - we've always really enjoyed the food and service. During the pandemic we've ordered takeout from them a couple of times as well and the food is just as fabulous. The specials they have every night for dinners for 2 or 4 have been amazing - we had an incredible gnocchi with seafood last week. Highly recommend!

It is a cozy restaurant with wonderful food and very good service. I highly recommend it. Being a former Montrealer, this ought to mean something. Forgot to mention a last item: they are honest. The had dropped a few items from a seafood plate (which we did not witness), the made it up by giving us 4 lobster tail. Bernard

We have been coming to Vero for a number of years and it continues to be our favorite restaurant in Calgary. Vero is our go to place whenever we have a special celebration and during covid, we have continued to do the take out dinners. The menu changes daily and we love the variety. The flavor and dishes are incredible and I have recommended Vero to my friends and family and they have all been impressed. Thank you chef Jenny!!!

We have not eaten at Vero in quite a while but have been having their takeout on several occasions. It is wonderful. Last night we had dinner for two - fried chicken - brilliant (didn't think you could say that about this dish), their steak with potatoes, pasta with pecorino and green salad with wonderful dressing. Each dish was just outstanding, very well and thoughtfully packaged. Quantity is large for us, really its dinner for 2 for two nights. It is great value for both quantity and quality. Everything was on time, and very covid sensitive. Is it the same as going in, of course note. But it is wonderful never the less and we will join them inside soon. In the meantime don't hesitate. They are always super helpful to accommodate food preferences.
