I liked the place walking in and left wishing I went to a different restaurant…read more The ambiance and use of lights were nice, the local beers were good, and the sustainable, organic menu was appreciated. We tried the Cracklins (pork rinds) first. Though heavy handed on the salt, I really enjoyed the flavors they used for the seasoning. Goes great with a pint of beer. We opted to have our appetizer before our meal, but we didn't expect to wait an hour for our food to come. I tried to be patient about it until I started to notice patrons who arrived later than us receiving their food and watching our waitress keep her interactions with our table short. Our food arrived. I ordered the pappardelle (noodles with pork shoulder, cabbage, etc) and he ordered the house burger with fries. I did not enjoy my dish at all, I had a hard time eating it. Pappardelle is made to handle heavy sauces since they're thick noodles and I typically enjoy pork shoulder, but there wasn't much sauce, there wasn't much flavor and the noodles were dry because of lack of sauce, and the pork shoulder pieces were dry and overdone. I couldn't finish my meal and preferred not to take it home. He enjoyed his dish more, described it as tasting almost pizza like because of the toppings inside but overall thought there was not enough seasoning for the meal. There were tons of fries, which were just ok. It's one thing to have to wait a long time for your food, but it's another to wait a long time for a dish that wasn't worth eating. It's even worse when staff notice and avoid your table. As a first time visitor to Canada and as the first restaurant I tried, this was a bad experience I wish I avoided. If anything, the local beer is good.

Love the decor and feel of this restaurant. Like a modern upscale pub. They are pretty new and…read morestill working through the kinks that all newbies need to get through. Servers are still a bit confused about table numbers and are learning the menu. The manager seemed to be highly involved. We enjoyed our experience here as all food was solid and very flavourful. Cocktails were good and at $10 who can complain? Lol. We shared the house hot wings and loved the intense flavour and spice, although I think it was too much heat for the normal palate so they might need to tone it down a notch for the rest of the population. The wings were covered a green sauce and served with house made buttermilk ranch which was delicious. Lamb linguine was my favourite and full of flavour. Tender braised shredded lamb swirled in perfectly cooked noodles and zesty tomato sauce. The burger was pretty good and those house fries that they come with are the bomb (herb parmesan and crispy). Would return to 1918 for sure. The menu is limited but I think that will change over time too.

The soup was warm and inviting with real beef. But, the real highlight was the mac and cheese: extra creamy made with real cheddar cheese and topped with buttery homemade croutons. For the portions provided, $10 is more than fair for well-prepared comfort food!

They offer two fresh soups every day which are clearly not canned and made from scratch. They also offer a different special every day of the week that can be supplemented with a salad or a small soup. These specials range from clubhouse sandwiches, to spring roll on vermicelli, to mac n' cheese (scratch made). One of my go-to places for lunches and as a soup connoisseur they are able to beat out most places by providing homemade soups instead of the typical generic Campbell's stuff you find in most delis. One thing I would like is for them to switch up and try their hand at making other soups because I have been here so many times the soups are getting slightly old (but still tastier and better value than Sunterra) TLDR: Soups good, specials can be good, sandwiches fresh, salad available.

We ended up here because one of the local pizza places was closed on Mondays. The food was good but not great. It definitely had a bit of the corporate feel. I likened the entire experience to a restaurant like the Tap House in Denver. We started with the Korean Cauliflower. They describe it as crispy. I would describe it as over-sauced and soft. We also had the Trio Dip (goat cheese red pepper dip, eggplant dip, edamame hummus). This was a fantastic appetizer. I had the Landing Pepperoni pizza. It was fine. Served with a tasty sauce and fennel honey, it was decent but the salami lacked flavor. One of my party had the Landing Carbonara. The sauce was heavy and it has chicken in it. She was not happy with the chicken. Overall, I'd go there with a group for a corporate meal or a happy hour but with so many other great restaurants in Calgary, I'd rather go elsewhere.
