April 2012 — "This is one of the higher-end restaurants along Stephen Avenue, and after passing it many times I decided to give it a try. I've been there a couple of times now -- it has the advantage of having a nice patio that's perfect on a sunny day. My overall impression is that this restaurant is kind of over-rated. Their menu has some tasty-looking items with fancy ingredients like truffle oil, but it's been my experience that when the food actually comes it's kind of bland. I've also not been impressed with the service -- it seems to take forever to place an order, get drinks, pay your bill etc. The prices are pretty expensive for average food and poor service. Still, it's got a good atmosphere and a great location, so I think it's worth trying again and I've heard lots of good things from other people who've been there. If I went again, I'd probably try to go during the evening as opposed to lunchtime when it's not as busy. "

July 2009 — "I went out for a business lunch with some customers and we decided to visit Tribune Restaurant and Bar which is located on 8th Avenue in downtown Calgary. The building is quite an old building and has a main floor and a basement. We were escorted down to the basement which had wonderful stone walls and an impressive wine display encased in glass. Our table shared appetizers of calamari and shrimp, both of which were quite tasty. For my main meal I chose chicken scallopine in a marsala wine sauce which was served with buttered noodles and topped with cheese. I’m sure it was supposed to taste that way, but I found the marsala wine to be too sweet for my taste buds and thus I didn’t enjoy my dish as much as I would have liked. Others at the table seemed to really enjoy their choices which was a burger and a lamb sandwich. The service was friendly and efficient throughout. I would recommend the restaurant and will return but will have something other than the chicken marsala."
