We came to The Nash for a friend's wedding and loved it so much that we returned the next day for breakfast. Everything we had was wonderful. I ordered the crab Benedict and my husband had the rotisserie chicken--both were delicious, and we especially loved the fresh salads that accompanied them. For dessert we tried the cinnamon rolls. My husband absolutely devoured them! I had a few bites--they're definitely on the sweeter side but very tasty. The service was excellent all around. Autumn was our server for breakfast and she was very sweet and attentive. The hostess was also incredibly welcoming. During the wedding, Kevin was fantastic--constantly checking in and making sure we had everything we needed. Truly top notch. Sage at the bar was friendly and made great drinks as well. Thank you to everyone at The Nash for such a wonderful experience! read more

We came for the YYC EXP prix fixe menu. OMG one THE most memorable meals ever! Brilliant local sophisticated comfort food, great local beer, and I had an amazing "Foxtail" cocktail. Beautiful friendly service, lovely ambiance - lively but not too loud. Good acoustics for a conversation. Wow!! Sorry writing this before dessert! read more

I went to the Nash for my 5 year anniversary and was not disappointed. Greeted by friendly staff that hang up your coats and led to a cozy table. They brought us free sparkling wine to celebrate our anniversary! So kind. I will say our server made our night - he was attentive, kind and quick. Food was delightful but I will say only having one vegetarian meal option (and made from chickpeas no less) is not great for 2025. The mains are a very good portion and you are left feeling very full. Our dessert was okay, we got the Bruleed banana split but the ice cream was freezer burnt. read more

Poor experience for table of nine Dish was under cooked and returned. Server had to many tables and did not have time help us. RetuNed dish came after everyone had finished and retro leave. Meat was tough. not recommended! read more

This is such a fun spot of grab a bite with friends or even go on a date. The interior can be intimate depending on where you sit but it is also very lively. There is street parking along the outside. They have a fun drinks menu with a drink for everyone to enjoy. I tried the black forest holiday drink and it was delicious ! They definitely do not hold back on the liquor. The food menu was spectacular also. It was so hard to choose a dish but I opted for the rotisserie chicken and I was so satisfied. The chicken was perfectly roasted and the mashed potatoes and green beans complimented the chicken well. Our service was great here! The host and servers were all very attentive! read more

Love The Nash! Amazing food and service! The restaurant is beautiful! Highly recommend!

When we walked in we automatically felt the lively and happening ambiance. The food was exquisite and delicious. The bread with the feta spread was an excellent start to the dining experience here. For the main meal, we ordered a large variety from seafood such as scallops, cod, and mussels, to meats like short ribs and lamb shoulder. All were extremely delicious and cooked to perfection. The service was friendly, informative, and attentive. This venue is a perfect fit for a date night or a simple catchup amongst friends. read more

Ok. Full disclosure, Chef Michael is a neighbour and friend but I think I can still provide an unbiased view. A couple of things: - I unapologetically admit that I love 'good' food; - whilst I have no issue spending money on good food I get unnecessarily grumpy spending money on 'meh' food or (even worse) 'bad' food Now, don't get me wrong, there is a place for crappy food but don't pretend that you're something else (read: Earls/Cactus Club etc.). The Nash is not that. Spectacular food (I'll admit that it's a bit tough to put their style in a pigeon hole - 'Contemporary American' maybe?)... Michael is classically French trained - and you see that in his food and sauces - but The Nash is decidedly New World and roasted meat forward. It's very hard to pick holes in this place. The space itself is beautiful (cut out of what was once The National Hotel - which still includes one of the oldest livery stables - now, obviously deduct - in western Canada) and the connected cocktail lounge is worthy of its own review. Service is impeccable - never seen but always there. Things just happen by magic. The Nash is a gem and would be a very fine place to host a dinner party (large or small)... their weekend brunch is also terrific. Big thumbs up. read more

Super creative cuisine that tastes delicious. Great vibe and wonderful service! Simply amazing!

Delicious surprise dinner with my fave gal pal at Sharing the Icelandic tempura cod and pork belly appie and we each had to get our own mussels in Thai curry. Morsels were big and juicy and broth was super flavourful Yum! The brick of bread also deserves a notable mention! read more

First time out during CoVid. Thank you to the staff for practicing responsibly safe socially distance practices. We went out as a group of four. We were greeted with hand sanitizer, free disposal masks, and a table on the patio that was well spaced from other guests. Nash service is excellent. The venue is pricey - but the food and drinks are good. We split four appetizers and had four individual dinners. It appears that the menu changes quite often, so take the following reviews for what they are worth. For Appetizers, in recommended order: 1) Crispy Duck Confit Potato Roll. The roll is itself is delicious - crispy, savoury and sweet - but the haskap berry sauce really makes it special. 2) Grilled Bread with Whipped Feta and Toasted Pistachios. Wow. I have cut down on bread, so anytime I have bread it's a treat. The bread was served at a percent warm temperate, where the whipped feta mix would slightly melt on it. So yummy. 3) Seared Scallops. Only two per serving, so a little pricey for just two. Very expected. 4) ditto with the Tartar. The egg was a nice inclusion. But very expected - nothing surprising nor particularly "standout". Entrees: 1) Mussels and Frites. Up there with Chambar in Vancouver. The red curry broth was so delicious. Wow. The serving on mussels, bread, and fries was good as well. Two of us ordered the dishes and neither finished. 2) portobello mushroom dish. My wife had it and finished it all on her own. She said she would probably try something else next time. 3) Nash burger. It was ok. For $25 - I would spend a little more and go with something else. Cocktails were a little pricey as well at $15. My wife had two glasses of wine, I had the Dark Lager. They were all good - but nothing I would go and search out afterwards specifically. Great service, very friendly and timely. Food is a little over priced, and there are some dishes that are noteworthy. read more

Interesting joint in the middle of an industrial area from what I saw. Meeting clients for lunch. My order was simple. Greek salad & grilled cheese with Tomato soup...simple. The Greek salad had shredded chicken in it!! Never had a Greek salad with that in it before. It wasn't bad but it was outta sorts for a Greek. The grilled cheese/tomato soup combo was just good but not great and it should've been great for $16.00! They could have done SO much more to make it a better flavour profile. It was just bland. Our server Shannon should have checked my table mates food temp cause her main (steamed mussels/fries) were lots less the hot & it was $19.00. Big miss here. Doubt I'd go again. read more

I was hosting family from out of town and decided to come here because previous experiences were quite good. This time however, it was terrible. The food was fine, although the sausage served with the scallops was very dry. The reason for this review is because of the poor service we received. Disclaimer: we did show up late for our reservation because of a miscommunication on my behalf, which we did apologize for. Everyone, including the server, said no problem and welcomed us to sit. Perhaps this set the tone for the poor service we received, but her actions were terribly unprofessional regardless. I also understand that servers were likely very burnt out because of Stampede, but that's not an excuse to take that out on your table. It all started when we ordered a bottle of wine and asked for it to be decanted. Instead of doing so, she actually opposed the idea. We asked her to humor us and at this point, it seemed like she was doing us a favor by serving us. When the wine came out, it was a little warm so we asked for it to be chilled. At this point she was starting to act really annoyed. All we wanted was for it to be put in a fridge for five minutes. When she agreed, we saw her shake her head in exasperation as she walked away from our table. Throughout the rest of service, she was very cold and unwelcoming. When it was bill time though, she was suddenly much warmer and nicer. We had a chuckle because we assumed she was trying to make up for her poor effort in hopes of getting a better tip. All that said, we typically have a good time at The Nash, so if you are considering going, I'd say do it! After this experience though, we will likely be going elsewhere in the future. read more

First, the good: the service is excellent. The wait staff is attentive and efficient. The food was not as impressive. I guess I should have had the steak but I opted for mussels with fries and a side of roasted cauliflower with crispy prime rib strips as an appetizer. The appetizer was thinly sliced prime rib, breaded with some dark crumb, deep fried and served with a thin, dark sauce. The meat was tender but the strips simply had very little flavour. Neither the taste of the meat or any seasoning came through. The sauce was something like soy sauce. The dilled cabbage under them was tasty though. The mussels were adequate but, again, the sauce lacked flavour. It had so much potential with promises of red curry and basil but it was bland and somehow too dilute. The mussels are served with a huge slab of delicious focaccia that is fluffier and bigger than most and that would have been perfect for dipping if the sauce had been tastier. The fries were not fresh, not hot and hard and had obviously been sitting in a warming tray for some time. The mussel sauce was good for softening them up a bit. The roasted cauliflower was limp and a bit chewy. It lacked any crispy tenderness that you usually look for in a roasted vegetable. All in all, my meal was a mediocre assembly of nearly-good dishes and things that may well have been properly prepared earlier in the evening but had lost their appeal by the time they were served to our table. I think my dinner companions were happy with their main courses. read more

Decided to drop in to The Nash for lunch. The hostess, Bailey is an old friend and awesome hostess. The waiter, Jean Luc is a very good waiter. He is engaging and knowledgeable as well as very helpful. We ordered the famous Nash Burger, Cod and Chips, side order of French Fries and Seared Tuna. Overall, the meal was delicious but the seared tuna was not quite to our tastes but it's a matter of personal preference. Their coffee was really flavourful. We were not disappointed and we would certainly go back again. read more

A week before my Calgary business trip, Gayle asked me why she wasn't coming along. She had just retired after 18 extraordinary years at the City of Walnut Creek, and was still adjusting to her new "schedule". My response was that I invited her a few months before, and she turned me down. I guess Calgary in January wasn't very appealing at the time. The Nash is a classy place, that I will take my classy wife to lunch or dinner the next time we're in town. I saw the Nash name in one of the City's free magazines in an article featuring the founder of the nearby Espy Experience who was singing its praises in particular, and the Inglewood neighbourhood in general. So one early morning, I took a walk from my Hilton Garden Inn "residence" and saw Inglewood (and the Nash building myself). My local friend Jim told me later that the refurbishment of this distinctive historical building into the Nash was long in coming and almost brick-by-brick. I came here last Friday from Lunch and dined at the counter of the Off Cut Bar. The Bar area is a very nice space, well arranged, handsomely appointed, and with big front windows letting in the light. I understand that there's music here on Thursday evenings? Space-wise, the Off Cut Bar is off to the side as you walk in. Onward is a huge and spacious dining area, with table cloths, and well-dressed and attentive staff. Gayle's kind of place. On this relatively cold and sunny day, I ordered one of my Midwest favorites: a grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup/bisque combination, along with a pint of a local red ale. Delicious. Great bar keep service too. I also dined more slowly than usual as I wanted to linger and enjoy the experience as much as possible. It was kind of like a Torah service: you get there quickly and leave slowly. Who knows if or when Gayle and I will be back in Calgary and what other unexplored culinary outposts await. But for sure, the Nash will be on my short list. read more

It was not the best experience at the Nash but also not the worst. We were freezing our butts off seated by the window, we mentioned this to our waiter who said he would turn up the heat but this did not change anything. The appetizers and drinks were actually the better part of the meal, we ordered the crispy potato rolls and beef tartare, both delicious. We ordered ceasers for our cocktails, also delightful! The waiter informed us of their features at the start of our visit. The main feature was an Arctic char with a side of asparagus filleted at the table. My partner ordered this feature meal but was extremely disappointed. The char was soggy, tasteless and already filleted when it arrived at our table. The skin was missing from the top, which the waiter attributed to sticking on the grill. Instead of asparagus we received green beans. In addition, the waiter punched in the wrong feature so we had to wait an additional amount of time before receiving our meals, during this time my order was sitting out getting cold. I ordered the duck breast which would have been delicious if it wasn't cold. The gnocchi and berry sauce were amazing though! We also ordered a side of scallops which were great. The waiter did remove the char from the bill, but the experience was affected regardless. Don't know if I would go back. read more

We had lunch at the Nash today. It was a beautiful day so we decided to eat Al Fresco. My partner had the quarter chicken & fries while I had the wild mushroom risotto. The chicken was advertised as drizzled with an Asian influenced sauce. Perhaps there was an Asian influence, but there was far too little on the chicken to know for sure. That being said, it was moist and tasted OK. The accompanying fries were well done, nicely salted and very tasty. The wild mushroom risotto was hot and well presented. However, the taste was a bit disappointing. I honestly could not taste the mushrooms and there were only a couple in the dish that I could see. The taste was also a bit bland; it could have used a bit more seasoning. The ambiance on the patio, under the umbrellas did make up for some the disappointment with the food. For the price we paid, I really expected a bit more. Perhaps this was an anomaly. We'll try it a gain in the future to see if this was an exception. read more

Wow ! What a nice place. Very cute setup. Randie our waiter was amazing. We went for the beet salad which was great with local food (cheese from BC but it's Canadian so I'll consider it local, our stuff is awesome) Then the duck breast with the gnocchi. It probably was the third best duck I've had (first being in Bordeau France so that says a lot) and the best gnocchi ever ! It was like eating a fluffy cloud. Light and soft. And the chocolate bar for dessert. All that with a nice bottle of Okanagan Sancerre. Amazing menu. Not to be missed if you visit Calgary read more

The Nash is a SMASH Hit!!! Try the lounge, try the restaurant but just come here!!! This old historic bldg in Inglewood has turned into a trendy upscale foodie paradise! All 4 of us in our party agreed that every dish, every ingredient, every carefully placed herb & spice perfectly complimented each plate. We started with the Crispy Potato Rolls (pulled pork, pepper jack, Sriracha, salsa verde) which looked like little spring rolls. They were served with what we would refer to as a "Siracha Mayonnaise". The Beetroot Salad was delicious and had an unexpected treat in the middle...beet sorbet! Our server was able to discuss the menu with ease. She answered our questions and made suggestions based on our preferences. She also advised us to order two sides to share "family style". We chose the vegetable which was cabbage and the today's risotto which had chêvre & tomatoes. The entrees we decided upon were the Hardwood Grilled Plank Salmon, pan Seared Ling Cod, Tamworth Pork Tenderloin, Almond and Leek Ash Crust and Basil, Chicken & Roasted Squash Rigatoni. Each dish came with perfect accompaniments to allow each mouthful to be absolute heaven for your senses! We were pretty full by dessert so just had coffees and tried the Roasted Banana Doughnuts. What a treat! A Perfect End to a perfect meal. Thank you Chef Michael Noble and all your hard working staff! Our SERVER SPLIT OUR BILL PERFECTLY 4 WAYS AND TOTALLED WHAT EACH ONE OF US OWED, WITHOUT EVEN HAVING TO ASK, IMPRESSIVE!!! read more

With a rich history as a popular dive bar, the Nashville hotel has renovated and updated into a beautifully modern restaurant. Chef Michael Noble has a reputation in Calgary, so I almost don't need to tell you how amazing the flavors are at the Nash. While restaurant menus often change seasonally I like to tell you about what we tried so you can get an idea of what you might experience, even if it might be a different menu when you go. We started off right by sipping on the Buckskin Sour and an Old Fashioned. Saltspring Mussels and Frittes We find that mussels rarely taste much different, but the sauce is what really sets them apart. These mussels swam in a saffron broth with leek. The fries were herbed with a dipping aioli. Brussels Sprouts Charred on the outside and exploding with sweet juices. Pan Roasted Duck Breast with Bing Cherry Jus Truffle pain perdu The bing cherry jus tasted deliciously sweet with sides of beets and steamed Brussels sprouts. Innisfail Lamb Two Preparations Braised shoulder has never been so fall apart tender. The lamb sausages and the black lentil sauce is where I tasted the Moroccan flavors. Dark Chocolate Hazelnut Tart Praline and cinnamon ice cream, burnt orange and I think I tasted pear purée too. For bevies we sipped on a few crafted cocktails. Viceroyalty Tequila and mezcal which has a nice smiley flavor, read more

The atmosphere is great, the servicing is fantastic and the food is absolutely amazing! We sat at the kitchen bar and loved to watch as the chef's created and plated absolute masterpiece food! Would absolutely recommend for anyone looking for a delicious meal in a fantastic atmosphere! read more

I have been wanting to try The Nash for a very long time and got my chance today for Sunday brunch. The decor was great and ambience was nice. Wasn't too loud that we had to shout to talk to each other. We were a party of 4 and had reservations for 1pm. We arrived about 15mins early. Table was ready yet, no sweat, we chatted and patiently waited. Twenty minutes after 1pm we finally get seated. Close to 30mins after being seated, our server comes for a drink order. Not a good first impression. The restaurant was busy but there was more than enough staff working. Anyways by this time we order our food along with drinks as we are getting hangry. We ordered smoked salmon eggs benedict, hangover breakfast pizza, the Nash breakfast(traditional bacon and eggs), and mussels and frites. We wanted the Nash cinnamon bun but they were sold out by the time we got seated. It was close to an hour and a half before our food came. Some tables that were seated after us received their food before us. The food itself was just mediocre, and we were HUNGRY. When you're as hungry as we were, a saltine taste amazing. Definitely not worth the long wait. To make matters worse, they charge for still water. WHO charges for tap water?? I want to try their regular menu; however after this experience I'm not sure if I want to anymore. read more

Tonight I attended the opening of The Nash in Calgary's Inglewood community. Located in the historic former National Hotel, Chef Michael Noble, from NOtaBLE fame, has opened his (quote) "Last Restaurant" and it is impressive! The food is exactly what you would expect from a former Iron Chef competitor while the design and atmosphere are like no other in the city. On one side, a delicate dinning room which serves everything from Brisket to Lamb. And on the other side; Off Cut Bar. A moody open concept speakeasy which serves some of the most creative cocktails you've ever tasted The Nash is open for dining until 10pm and Off Cut Bar will welcome patrons for lite bites and savory sips until Midnight. This Resturant and Bar will change the face of this sleepy community! read more

Excellent brunch service! The servers are friendly and helpful and always make sure your drinks are full. I had the traditional breakfast and shared a cinnamon bun. Everything was excellent but prepare yourself for a rich flavour experience as the potatoes are cooked in duck fat! I could go again just for a cinnamon bun and a side of bacon and be happy for the day :). Also to note, they are one of the only brunch places that takes reservations which I love! No more standing on the sidewalk for an hour hungry and hungover! read more

Came for opening night and came back another day for lunch in December. Service was great, we didn't make a reso for lunch but were given a few options since it was full. Ended up getting in right away and sat down for lunch. My lunch date and I both ordered the pulled rotisserie chicken sandwich. She had hers with fries and I had salad.

Met the boys for a Friday lunch at The Nash. I have dined in Inglewood many times, but had no idea about this gem. Upon entering the establishment, I immediately felt under dressed. Fortunately, we were sitting in the Off Cut Bar. The decor is amazing! Our table top, for example, was cleverly supported by repurposed radiators. Our server was quick to greet us, hand over menus and take our drink order. Tap beers are from a local craft brewery, but I cannot recall the name. The IPA was delicious nonetheless. Onion soup was recommended so I took the suggestion along with the burger and added the smoked bacon which is done in house and the green salad as a side. My Dining Buds ordered a Rueben and a salmon dish. Food arrived promptly - fresh and hot! Needless to say conversation ended as we tucked into our food. Absolutely delicious!! No dessert takers, but sampled a couple other brew varieties. Have to find out the name! Give The Nash a try! Awesome! read more

Great food, great atmosphere, and great service. A fantastic addition to Inglewood. My wife and I went to The Nash to top off our Christmas date, and we are very glad we did. The Nash was the perfect way to top off an already stellar day. The wait: There was none. We went on the Sunday before Christmas holidays and booked 3 days before. While the restaurant was full, I suspect a table for two wouldn't have had to wait for long to be seated even if they didn't have reservations. According to our waitress, Fridays and Saturdays are gongshows, so plan accordingly! The service: no problems here. Our waitress came promptly after we were seated to take our drink orders. What was kind of weird was we had to ask for the full drink menu from Off Cut Bar, but our waitress grabbed the menu right away and was quite knowledgeable about the drinks. I went with a staple Village Blonde, but there are a variety of interesting sounding historical Calgary-inspired cocktails available that I will be sure to try on my next visit. The food: As we weren't extremely hungry, we skipped the appies and ordered the Sunrise Co-Op Free Run Half Chicken and Seared East Coast Scallops. Both were AMAZING. If you've been to NOtaBLE, you will be familiar with the chicken. It's a perfectly roasted, rich tasting bird that strikes a good balance between the seasoning and natural flavours of the chicken. It's not going to win any awards for creativity, but there's something to be said about great execution. I'm not sure why the Seared East Coast Scallops was given that name. I felt the star of the dish was the pork belly and delicious crispy proscuitto that comes with the dish. The pork belly was a tender, melt-in-your mouth affair that warms the soul on a cold December day, and the proscuitto provided a nice contrast in texture to the softness of the pork belly. There were also scallops. They were tasty. The price: I would say The Nash is on the pricier side; definitely more expensive than the fare at NOtaBLE. However, I feel this is justified by the fact that the dishes are more inventive and novel. All in all, we had a resoundingly positive experience at The Nash and look forward to a second visit in the near future. Definitely give this new gem a try! read more

Funny I drafted this up when I went for the first time 2 years ago and never posted: "Good? Yes. Great? That'd be a stretch. Excellent service and the decor is awesome." I went again last night and felt about the same, it was okay but nothing special at all - from a food and value perspective. Service again was better than average, decor is awesome and location wise it's great. But in the end the food is visually appealing and creative looking but just average on taste. I liked the pork tenderloin, but it was served over an undercooked sweet potato. And the $49 halibut makes me more and more angry the more I think about it. $49???? It was an average size piece of Halibut served in a Thai sauce (which was good, liked it in the mussels appetizer) and some potatoes (which by the way did not match for the dish, at all). read more

In the heart of Inglewood... a unique atmosphere with a great job on the interior design of the place. Plenty to look at as your having a drink or dinner. Never heard of the place until we had a group of friends from Toronto wanting to try this out. I must say... we had a blast and enjoyed the entire dining experience. From the food, ambience, service and prompt seating with our reservation. I hear it's hard to get in this place so we booked ahead of time... and it was sure worth it. Yes, they have a burger if you want... which looks delicious.... but you can have a burger anywhere... so everyone in the group ordered something different that we weren't sure or tried before. The result... 10/10 on each of the meals, 10/10 on each of the drinks we tried. So overall... we didn't have anything to complain about. The drinks were very unique and decorated very cool... pried sliced pineapple... that was pretty neat. I had the pasta... which was amazing! Others tried the the special and chicken which were all good. Prices are definitely on the high end but it's a high end fancy restaurant with a great atmosphere. If you're looking for a romantic or good quality food I would recommend this place. read more

The Nash - I hadn't even heard of this restaurant until a friend suggested it for dinner. This was definitely a cool, upscale experience. The ambiance and decor were very tasteful and thematically appropriate - everything matched from the wall art to the decor style to the tables. The menu is fairly small, which is a great thing for a restaurant like this - it makes me believe that it's carefully thought out and menu choices are meaningful. It's definitely an upscale dining experience with the associated price tag - but in my opinion, it's worth it. We started with the steak tartare and duck confit ravioli - the tartare was fresh, seasoned well, and served with pickled vegetables and chips. I would not have minded a more bread-y substitute to the chips. The duck confit ravioli was creamy and definitely delicious, with the exception of the fact I felt it was oversalted (unfortunately a bit of a theme throughout the night, and this is coming from a guy who usually prefers a bit of oversalting). For our mains, I got the lamb sirloin and my friend got the 12 oz ribeye. The ribeye came with a veggie mix and blue cheese gnocchi - while I love gnocchi, I found these pieces to be a bit too large with not enough texture (or mouthfeel) and again, oversalted. The steak was pretty good, but for $57 I would expect something a little bit more mindblowing. The lamb however, was indeed outstanding. It was cooked to perfection with a fantastic palette of seasoning and appropriate flavours. The dining experience as a whole was really positive - I loved the atmosphere and the food is very good. While I would definitely come back, I feel that for this price range there are other excellent establishments in Calgary I'd like to make a second visit to before this one. read more
