Annabelle's Kitchen Downtown

My first time at this location and I loved it. The place is quite inviting, good music, very clean and organized. Not to mention the food - what a delicious experience, from the starter whipped burrata and toast, to the main course, and the drink. Thank you for the great service!

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.

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.

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

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.

Food and atmosphere were great, service was fantastic! Tried the whipped ricotta and it was sooo good, only negative was one of the pieces of bread was slightly burnt. Meatballs were a great appetizer, heavy if you're also having a big meal. I has the Artic Char on saffron risotto and really enjoyed it. There was no room for dessert!

I have been to Annabelle's Kitchen Downtown several times, usually before a play at Theatre Calgary. I love the ambiance, the brick walls, the greenery, the lighting. The food is amazing. The fresh pasta is wonderful, lots of flavour. They have an extensive beverage menu with lots of choice for wine, beer, cocktails and N/A. I will return!

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!
