It will do in a pinch. We were driving through Calgary and need a place for dinner before our journey continued. It's a fairly busy place attached to cross iron mills. There's nothing very special about the food but at least the service was good. My husband got a burger. Pretty much like any other burger in a chain restaurant. My father in law got a chicken park which he liked very much. It was definite a huge portion size. I wasn't too hung so I got the shrimp appetizer and a side of brussel sprouts. The shrimp were tasty. The brussel sprout were ok. Also of note, there is no more discount for AMA members because the ownership of the chain has changed as of last year. read more

I went to Milestones , sat for at least 20 minutes before anyone asked me if I wanted something to drink. I ordered the crispy shrimp noodle bowl. It was a big clump of noodles no flavour absolutely dreadful. I couldn't even eat it. The waiter didn't even ask me why I didn't eat my food. It's glorified fast food I would never go back. I also had a Bellini that was just coloured water no flavor. read more

Showed up before going to watch the final Mission Impossible movie. Asked the hostess if they have steak and she enthusiastically said yes. Sat me at the bar where I was greeted by a standoffish bartender. Asked for an old fashioned, and he started making it from The well scotch. I politely said I would like the angels envy, which was followed by a sigh. I had to flag him down to order my supper. I asked for the 16 ounce ribeye. His reply, we do t have any steak, he said, I do t order the food here. very UN hospitable... paid for my drink, no tip, and high tailed it out of there. note to owner, youre A transient restaraunt, you rely on out of towners, if you're gonna stay open, maybe make it more welcoming. read more

First time to this Milestones which is Calgary area's newest. It's located by all the other restaurants and food court at CrossIron. Service was fantastic and the decor is very modern. The food was surprisingly average but well portion. Had the traditional breakfast which was ok but had better at both the downtown and SouthCentre locations. Overall it's a great place to be with family and friends and pricing is on par along similar type restaurants. read more

Not sure why this place has a bad wrap and I am actually happy that my co worker doesn't live and die by yelp or I never would have eaten here. Sure beat the food court meals I had been having. We thoroughly enjoyed the service and our food. A little bit on the pricey side for a chain attached to a mall, but there aren't many other options and this place serves up a decent, fresh and flavorful meal. My only gripe really is that their menu lacks a choice of vegetable sides, but to be fair...there's a generous helping of veggies incorporated to may of the entree options, so I guess there really is no need. But, hey...sometimes you just want some extra greens...just sayin' read more

So we came here fairly bright and early on a Saturday and it was quiet. After waiting a brief moment for a host, we were seated in the lounge. When it came to ordering they were out of calamari and flatbread so two of my counterparts couldn't order what they wanted. It wasn't the end of the world but 'twas a shame! Like normal I tried a burger, it was the California Burger. I got it because it came with candied bacon, not sure if they were out of that or not but the bacon on the burger was just regularly smoked bacon. It wasn't the greatest and the gravy tasted like it came from a package. Overall it was alright though. The fries were indeed amazing though! Perfect salt and crunch to it! Since my wife couldn't get her bruschetta flatbread, she settled for Asian Chicken Bites. They had a lot of meat to them, which is good, but not much crunch. Plating was very odd and had a lot of empty space. Made the dish seem a lot smaller than it should. Decent experience though, Dennis the waiter did a good job though! read more

When there before going to the movies and I am glad I did. I wish I could of given then 5 stars but a few things prevented that. The service was great and the manager on the floor was beyond friendly. We started with a few drinks and the Bellini I had was very tasty and looked beautiful. The mojito my friend had could have been a little strong because it was very weak on alcohol. The onion soup was pretty good but not enough cheese or croutons to be 100%. We then tried the coconut calamari and they were very rubbery and the coating was not crispy at all but the dipping sauce was amazing. We shared the Thai Basil noodle bowl and it was so good the only thing is the noodles were a little undercooked. We had a great night and I would go back again for sure. read more

Since we had plans to check out a new movie at Cineplex Crossiron mills, we decided on a quick sit-down dinner before heading into the theatre. Milestones seems like a good choice for something general that fit everyone's tastes. Atmosphere: 3.5/5 Overall met my expectations for a Milestones restaurant - clean and modern. There were a few tables already but we were seated quickly. We did end up getting a corner table though - which I didn't mind but could be a little cramped for some others. It was nice for privacy though. Food: 3/5 I had the beef bolognese which came w a house sauce, a few filets, spinach, on fettucine. Overall it was okay; I tend to like food that is a little more bland so it was still a little saucy for me. The plate didn't look too big to start with, but it ended up being filling enough. Service: 3/5 Our server was new so she had to clarify a few items, otherwise friendly. However, the kitchen did take a while to prepare our meals. Price: 3/5 The price was quite $ for the amount and type of food that I had, but I suppose it is only once in a while! Overall: 3/5 Overall this restaurant met my expectations for a milestones chain, although it was quite expensive for the dish I had. However, it was nice to have a sit-down dinner in crossiron mills mall instead of grabbing food quickly from the food court, as there are only a few restaurant options available. read more

"Yay! I'm a fan" for real! I stopped by Milestones for Sunday dinner with my friends and had a really great time enjoying the awesome drinks and the very delicious food. The shining new restaurant is in the "food district" part of the CrossIron Mills-- beside the Boston Pizza and Fionn MacCool Irish Pub. CrossIrons is a destination mall for the out-of-towners or for the people who will spend more than 5 hours in the mall, which is very possible lol, so I like that they are a few eating options. I had the Yam Frites, Ultimate Fish Tacos, Chilli Popcorn Shrimp and I stole a spoonful (or ten) of the Roasted Mushroom Soup. Everything was really awesome. I dream about the Yam Fries, everything was seasoned well and plated like it was from a reality TV cooking show. The Popcorn Shrimp was quite literally on popcorn! Two thumbs up for creativity. The prices are like most franchises, the starters were under fifteen bucks. As for drinks, I had the Blackberry Vanilla Bourbon Sour it was spectacular!! I really enjoyed it, I don't think I've ever had a bourbon before and now I'm a big fan. Milestones have some really cool drinks specials-- and I will definitely come back to take advantage of the Girl's Night Out Special on Mondays which is 4 bellinis and 4 appetizers for $40! read more

Avoid at all cost, by all cost I mean you'll spend more money than the food is worth. The drinks have more ice than liquids, the food is very greasy and under-seasoned. The service is extremely slow. Friendly-ish but slow. This is my second time going, thinking I'd give them a second chance our first time wasn't any better. There are far better restaurants than milestone in crossiron, just keep walking not worth the money. read more

Milestones - The blackberry-Vanilla drink which is a $9 drink was pretty good, other than there was more ice than liquid. - Bars Near Me - Rocky View, Alberta

Me and my boyfriend went here today and it was a poor experience. Firstly we showed up at 5:10 as when you check their website it says happy hour is 3-6 however when we sat down and asked about it they said now it is only 3-5, but other milestones are 3-6. It should be consistent between all restaurants and online. Then when we tried to use our gift card they said that they don't affiliate with that company that makes the gift card anymore so they couldn't use it. The only reason we came to this milestones was to use the gift card we have had for a few years. read more

Calamari is great, fish taco is great the beef slider not with the money Service has been good, bartender was great read more

I went back last weekend after shopping till dropping and I gotta say that the service was exceptional this time around and the apps again were excellent. But the steaks were sub par. I could make a better steak at home. We were a group of 4 and we all ordered drinks and again found them slightly watered down- I don't know if this is an issue in that they don't get to the tables fast enough or if they are over iced but my mojito and the companions caesars were both meh... My husband and I both ordered the steak and in all honesty my husband who is a steak lover and does not usually complain found it quite gristly and tough. Mine was actually burnt on one side and flipped over to hide the fact that perhaps it was forgotten and was waaaaay overdone to be medium, and there was quite a bit of cartilage in my cut as well. I ate what I could and pawned the rest off to my dinner companions; we did not complain as we were tight on time and because our server was so sweet so we just let it go. If I come back it will definitely be for the apps and might do so for lunch. I'm struggling between 2.5 and 3 stars as drinks were watery and the steaks were killed also, I tried jasmine the rice my companion had and found it was very bland and uninspired, needed something to liven it up. I'll leave it at a pass with 2.5. read more

Been frequenting Milestones, in all Calgary locations, but this location has oodles of problems, particularly with management. An ideal spot, with the Mall and Theatre, should make this place a gold mine!? Last night the tea water was luke warm, cheese bread took 18+ minutes to arrive (comp'd) another 10+ minutes and steak, salad and pasta were all well below par for the price (comp'd again)!? All around us orders were wrong, slow to arrive, or just sent back. Excuse was they were very busy and the kitchen was overwhelmed!? If you are going there for a bellini and appie before a movie, I think you'll do fine. But as a full meal experience, we really felt slighted! read more

Sorry not a big fan The service was great, and the food was ok, but it just seemed to much. Like i was paying25 for a 15 dollar meal. "Oh this salad has fresh quinoa, mandarin oranges, ginger sesame oil with just a splash of balsamic virgin olive oil. Goes great with our fresh steak seasoned in blahblahblah..." Just gimme a garden salad with steak. I realize that if thats all I want I can just go to a place that just does that. I am just giving my opinion. That being said I do enjoy going for fancy frufru drinks with my female coworkers there *side note* Yelp wanted to know if there are any pokestops near by, and if thats a selling feature for you their are 2. GOD SPEED! read more

We went here after shopping and chose to sit down rather than eat at the food court. We have a 1 year old and 3.5 year old. we were seated quickly and ordered two kids meals and our food. It's took about 40-45 minutes to have the food sent out. Which then they missed the kids meals. By this time both kids were melting down they are young and hungry. The waitress noticed they didn't send the kids meals. the waitress forgot to enter the order. So we waited another 20 minutes for their food to come out. In the mean time our kids are our fries and just wanted to get out. She made an apology but zero compensation for the time. this will be the very last time we will ever go back. I wanted to speak to a manager but my husband said not to bother. The food was ok. Expensive for what you get. the burger was dry. Definitely avoid. read more

I visited on Saturday (04/07 @ 1:39pm) with a table of 6; I haven't been to Milestones in years and I remember why... The service was terrible and slow, plus food was just alright. We ordered appetizers and a few of the other ladies waited until 2pm to order happy hour beverages. We told our server of our intentions and but after ordering apps, he didn't come back until 2:15 to see if we still wanted drinks. Food took awhile to come out too, and it the ladies running the dishes had no idea where the food was going (isn't that what seat numbers are for?) I'll stick to other large fracnhies. read more

We ate here on a leisurely Sunday for an early dinner before our movie at about 6:00. I was very impressed with the food and service. I can see the restaurant as being busy, so we came at the best time. The calamari appetizer was very high quality and tasted clean and fresh. It had a crisp outer texture and the squid was butter soft, slowly melting in my mouth. I ordered the Cajun Shrimp Creole, which tasted as close as it can get to the food I've had in New Orleans. My husband ordered the Prime Rib and it was cooked to perfection. Cocktails were flavorful and well balanced. Very refreshing to the palette. The Belgian Chocolate Ganache Torte was a decadent finish, extra plus was that it's a gluten free dessert. read more

The food was delicious (although they were out of multiple items) but the service was not great. The waitress was extremely slow despite the relatively quiet restaurant. We had to request drink refills multiple times before they were brought to us. It also took 45 minutes for our appetizers to come out, for which the waitress was very apologetic, but it was still annoying. Everyone seemed scattered, and it was an overall disappointing experience. We would not go back. read more

Avoid, avoid, avoid! Absolutely terrible!! Came here on good Friday, they had two girls running the door (one would have been adequate since they were obviously understaffed) we waited for 20 minutes even though there were loads of tables available. The really annoying part of that was there were people who came in after us who got seated before us, not sure what way they were doing the buzzers. After we finally got seated the waitress did try her best to be as quick as she could with everything, however with the drinks they took at least 15 minutes since there was no one running the bar. We ordered the New Mexican starter which was okay, too much cheese in it though. We also ordered the tuna poke which was so disappointing, it had absolutely no flavour and the pineapple did not go with it at all! I have nothing good to say about this place, I definitely wouldn't waste my money on this chain again! Tip - go to Fionn MacCools next door! read more

Service is definitely five stars. Food is really good. We love going there for breakfast. Had eggs Benedict which was really good. Our order happened to be a package that we didn't know about, server changed it to the package which saved us money and gave us an fruit app. Would go again. read more

Food was great! The two stars are for the service. We were a family of four and other than two other couples the restraunt was empty. It took the waiter 10 minutes to get to us to begin with, he forgot our drinks. A second waiter asked if we needed anything we told her about the drinks she smiled then walked away and never took care of it. The prime rib came without sides and when it came 5 me to pay it took another 15 minutes. The lady waiter was rude and pushy the guy who served us was polite enough but all in all unapologetic for the lousy service. We won't be back due to the service. read more

This was one of the worst meals we have eaten. The sirloin steak had zero taste. A beginner cook could have done better. The squash ravioli was dry and luke warm. A little bit of the correct spices. I also ordered lemonade and received water. The wings were the only thing good in a $95 meal. This is the second really bad meal at a Milestones this past year. I don't think we will be going back. read more

The food was honestly so amazing. I had the prime rib burger w/ yam fries. It was vv good. The yam fries was the best. All my family was happy with their meals. The bathroom is very modern but not spotless. The service was a tad slow. Though very friendly and helpful. Definitely come here for dinner read more

Stopped by the X-Iron Mills location tonite with a friend for dinner before catching a movie. Greeted and promptly seated with a promise that our waitress would be with us shortly. 15 mins of waiting and watching the 2 waitresses serve the 2 tables beside us before the manager dropped by to see if we have been served yet, we said no and he told us he would get someone right away. 8 minutes later, still no service for our table but the couple that just arrived got their drink orders taken. Had enough of the lack of service and went next door to Boston Pizza where we were seated and served in 5 mins. A real pity for Milestones as I will NEVER go back to their again. Your servers lost out big time as I usually tip 20-50% (on outstanding service). read more

The current tallied rating of only 2.5 stars is being too generous & actually warrants a lower rating. Late & poor cooking & delivery with no excuse of being under-staffed or busy with patrons. Apart from marginal cooked quality, it is obvious that there is poor or non-existing expedition practice to ensure quality of output. Sigh! Manager did not have the perceived courage to approach our table to discuss or get feedback despite waitress prompting (again) not busy. The offer of dessert was distasteful & offer of 10% off the bill is a cop-out to avoid speaking with us. We made sure to return the 10% to the waitress. Make a pass to the restaurant to the left & right or the food court. read more

I was there on Saturday, August 13th with my family with visitors out of town. I ordered chicken bites as an appetizer; the server took it upon himself to decide that I did not want to eat the chicken until the whole dinner was served. I ordered a sirlion steak and asked for it to be well done. The server brought me the steak medium rare; then he took it back and left me with the fries and salad (forgot the dressing). it took the kitched 25 minutes to bring back the steak by then the fries and salad were soggy. My mom has Parkinson's I asked for a spoon and he forgot to bring it. I asked for a napkin he never brought it. I had to ask other people to find him for us because I could see him chatting away in the kitchen. It was a long painful experience. I will never in my life go back. read more

Service is sub standard. Waitress disappeared moments after taking our order never showed again until our food was ready which was a long time. Order was wrong. Food was average. I will not return. read more

Our experience today was not pleasant at all. It took them over 45 minutes to bring out the food even though the place was not very busy. One of the dishes we order literally has a rotten smell. We asked for it to be changed and the manager didn't even acknowledge how spoiled the dish was. Let alone the fact that the service was very disappointing. It takes the waitress 25 minutes to refill a drink. Avoid this place if you are at Crossiron Mills. read more

My g'f and I went to this Milestone's after spending some time shopping in the mall. We each ordered a drink and a couple of appetizers each and decided to share the loaded, stacked fries. Firstly I asked for a glass of the Santa Margarita Pinot Grigio and was told by our server Karen L. oh ya we don't have that wine. I said are you sure you don't have it, that's my favorite wine. She said umm...ya pretty sure we don't but I'll go check. She went to ask the bartender and came back and said, oh ya we do have that wine. So I ordered a glass. She then came back to take our food order. I ordered the sliders and my g'f ordered the fish tacos. The server took our ordered took our menus and walked away. 5 mins later she came back and said uummm..ya we don't have the fish tacos you'll have to order something else. My g'f who happens to be a professional chef and private caterer said I work as a caterer and what do you mean you don't have the fish tacos how can you not have them. The server said well we have to special order in the fish. So I'm thinking ya ok so why didn't you order in the fish and if you don't have the fish tacos why do you still have them on the menu. Should the servers also not be familiar with whats on the menu and what's not available and should they not tell the customers what's not available when they hand them the menu? When we first sat down we were pretty much the only ones in the lounge side of the restaurant, after about half an hour it started to fill up...that's when the service went way down hill. I travel alot for business and I stay at alot of hotels and eat out at a lot of different restaurants, and I did not receive good service and the food was not the worst I've had, but by no means it was not good...I won't be coming back to this restaurant nor will I visit the Milestone Chain again. Literally left a bad taste in my mouth. read more

Stopped in for a late Tuesday meal with the family. The place was more than half empty at the time - and what first struck me was how filthy the floors were, and the many uncleared tables. The hostess was not the most friendly person either. The 'famous' wings were OK as a starter, but my Med Chicken entree was lukewarm, and the green leafy veggies tasted like lukewarm water. To top it off, there was a wayward french fry mixed into the vegetables on my plate - not what I would expect for a $22 dollar plate. Additionally, we waited nearly 40 minutes for our entrees to arrive, even though the restaurant was less than half full at the time. Will not be back, and should be avoided. read more

I was their for brunch on Saturday Oct. 15. I ordered steak and eggs. It came with delicious potatoes and toast. The steak came perfect and was very good. I ordered over easy eggs and they made them sunny side up. That's not a big deal at all. What looks like happened was, they realised the mistake before bringing me the food and instead of just telling me or giving them to me as is. (I would have enjoyed them as is just as much) They flipped them over so they looked like over easy eggs. So not that big of deal but as far as I can see presentation is everything at milestones and this time they dropped the ball. If it was that they didn't want to make more eggs that's just lazy. If it's that they couldn't afford three new eggs that's too bad its seems like a very wealthy company. If it's that the chef doesn't care about presentation, well that's seems to be the issue to me. So i guess bottom line is. It was very delicious food, presentation sucks. Its a shame they think i wouldn't have noticed. I won't go there again, I will not go places that think their customers are fools. read more
