    Great view
    Melissa G.

    What a cool spot to find in Lethbridge Alberta. I searched for the best things to do on a recent trip, and this one ticked all the boxes. Great view, interesting menu, elegant service but not stuffy, well-prepared food, and did I mention the view? My in laws, who we were visiting, had never been here and they were stunned at how cool it was. Jazz on Wednesday nights too. The fish and chips were fresh and tasty as was all the food. One thing I appreciated is that they didn't give us a hard time for wanting to move tables or for asking for the smoking of the cocktail to be done table side. They were very accommodating and I really appreciated that. Would absolutely go back even though I've done it before. The menu had too many good things on it to go once.

    Cast iron Delmonico cut steak - date night dinner for two with a great view!

    Date Night for Two (about $100) each had a good sized delicious salad to start, the main featured a Delmonico cut steak, grilled shrimp and vegetables served in a big heavy cast iron skillet. Then shared a dessert choice and we picked the warm chocolate cake option. It was a fun way to share dinner. We loved it! We'll go again but maybe on a Monday night so we can enjoy the live music.

    Okay Water Tower... I'll preface this review with the following: I have lived in Lethbridge since 2004 and have experienced every water tower version since it became a thing. The first version did well for a while and the Ric's did for a bit, but it has always had that "over priced underwhelmed" sort of vibe to it. When we discovered that the telegraph guy what taking care of the water tower, we knew we needed to check it out. (The Telegraph in downtown Lethbridge is one of the few places I have eaten where I needed to compliment the chef). We decided to do a birthday meal for my 38th. One of things that has changed is that the menu has a clear casual vs gourmet split. You can pop in for a 23$ Reuben or a 40$ steak. For a market like Lethbridge that makes a ton of sense. We went the fine dining route. Appetizers: We had the Bour-Schetta and also the Bocconcini Croquettes. Both were amazing, but I must say that the Bour-Schetta is possibly the greatest thing I have ever had in my mouth. I could have ordered three more and just been done for the meal. Entrées: My wife went with the chefs special and I am jealous that I didn't follow suit. It was a Salmon en Croute (essentially a salmon Wellington) with amazing potatoes and sautéed veggies. Simply amazing and the portion was surprisingly large. Could have fed us both with appetizers added in easily. I went for the fillet tenderloin with button mushrooms (also came with the chefs potatoes and seasonal veggies). Cooked perfectly and the potatoes were super good. We skipped dessert because we were full, but still had babysitter time to burn so we popped down to the lounge for a drink. My wife had a chocolate martini and I had a smoked old fashioned. Incredible both of them. Staff: No complaints. Our server (Nicole) was pleasant and attentive without being annoying. She admitted right away that she was newer to the business and didn't try and feed us any BS when she didn't know the answer to a question. She promptly asked another employee and got us a reliable answer. The bartender on the 2nd level was a delight. Venue: it's dinner 100 feet up in an old water tower... enough said. Conclusion: we were impressed. The food was exceptional and did not disappoint from my experiences at the Telegraph. We are encouraged by the Casual menu for its cheaper options for "non-celebration" style date nights. Given this experience I am thinking we will be seeing more of Lethbridge from 100 feet up. Bravo Water Tower. Excellent experience.

    This was our first time visiting the water tower ever. It was our anniversary and we definitely felt well treated! We didn't make any reservations, but they were able to seat us in 15-20 minutes. During this time we just sat in the lounge and had a couple drinks. Our waiter, Eric, was such a highlight of the evening. He is actually also the Dining Room Manager as well. He was extremely enthusiastic, helpful and dare I say charming! He even offered to help us celebrate by offering a dessert or round of drinks to us. We never did take him up on the offer though. This place is on the pricier side, but honestly I have no complaints about the food. It was amazing, and since you are in the water tower, you have a pretty great view as well! The atmosphere was a bit dark, not horrible though. It was not loud at all either, quite quiet. We started off with some honey jalapeño wings, and no exaggeration... so amazing! Very juicy, crispy and fresh! No broken bones in our bath either! Decent amount of meat as well. We then got some bread rolls served on a hot cast iron skillet with brushed butter on top and chunks of sea salt. They were very delicious. All our food came out in perfect timing. Our entrees were our last part of our meal and they were so delectable. I had the 14 ounce ribeye and my wife had the 6 ounce tenderloin. Both served with a garlic mashed potato with Brie mixed in! We both had a butter blue cheese sauce for our steaks. My wife had a side of mushrooms and I had a side of charred carrots with honey butter! Seriously so delicious! Like I said though, it is a bit pricey A few things to note though. It was wing Wednesday and I believe our waiter forgot that, as we paid full price for them. I didn't even mind as they were so good! 5/5!

    Ridiculously good. My wife and I tried this restaurant this evening for dinner. What an amazing experience. We started with the pulled pork "fries". Imagine great pulled porked shaped like fries and then deep fried. Well, imagine no more. They have it here. Warm bread rolls with two types of butter appeared and were devoured. The Caesar salad was next. Just as good as it gets. Fresh, tasty and well plated. A must. My wife has the scallops and bacon. The presentation was incredible, and the portion quite generous. I had the Alberta braised lamb shank cassoulet. The lamb shank is braised for 6 hours and had the consistency of butter. It is served with delicious red beans and a farmer's sausage. Had we left at this point the dinner would have been all we could ask for. Given the nice ambience of the restaurant, and the friendly, professional wait staff we decided to linger over coffee and shared a warm date pudding cake with salted carmel, mascarpone cream and candied bacon. It is difficult to put into words how good this was. Just treat yourself to one. There is also a very nicely appointed full floor lounge below the restaurant that we will try next time. If you want to celebrate an occasion, or just go for a nice dinner then this is your place in Lethbridge. It gets 5 stars because there is no way to put in 6.

    Spent our Friday dinner here at the Lethbridge watertower grill. We read some reviews online before we came but the server we had tonight and the quality of food and wine are just brilliant! The lights and view are warm and welcoming, it's just absolutely amazingwe would definitely recommend this place and will be back for sure.

    I owe it to the Keg to give a new review. My last review did reflect some problems. However, the…read moremanager did reach out to contact us and invite us to try again. I was so hesitant, but thought we could give it another chance. We decided to take our other son, for his birthday. We did make reservations, so our wait was minimal. When we sat down, The waiter was very informative. He also invited questions so it would be clear with any unknown details. So, after we ordered, it was a little bit of a wait. The place was a little busy so this probably was part of the delay. However, when the food did arrive, it all arrived at once. a few employees delivered it so it would happen quickly. One thing that impressed me, is even with different employees involved, they knew where the dish would go to each person and what he ordered. That tells me they communicate. I even think I saw the manager helping deliver to the table. The staff were all working together. Looking at the combinations, the cooks must have timed everything perfectly for the 5 different people. everything was perfectly cooked, and resting at good temperatures when delivered. With all the combinations, the cooks performed super well. The food looked great! Now, I was on guard for any details that might not be right. I asked after a few minutes how everyone thought of their food. It was impressive. Myself I had the prime rib, and it was perfect. I think the horseradish was super fresh. It was nice! What a super nice prime rib! I should of ordered the bigger one..... At random times i did ask again, and everyone was really happy. And, again, the birthday desert goes down nice for the birthday boy. This is a nice touch. I appreciate the managers involvement to our previous experience not being perfect. I did not expect anything when I posted before, but was impressed that someone cared enough to contact us. It was his encouragement why we decided to return and try again. It was a really great experience this time. Thank you!

    Great food excellent service I had surf n turf and my wife had 10 oz classic prime ribread more

Our first go around our chicken tenders weren't as we remembered. Normally we love them but they weren't that crispy and the flavour for the tangy tai sauce was a bit off as well. Trying to supplement out the fries for mashed potatoes... forget about it! It ain't happening. But returning for a second time because we had a gift card, it was a lot better. We were greeted at the front door and seated quickly. Our waitress was quite friendly and the food came out quickly but it was fresh. There menu seems a bit limited, which I view as a negative, but others may not. Anyways I got the chicken tenders again and my wife got the Chicken Madeira Rigatoni. This time around though they allowed me to swap out the fries for mashed potatoes and gravy and boy was it worth it! So delicious. Potatoes were very creamy with no lumps! And the chicken tenders were piled high! Wonderfully crisp and full of flavour! And my wife loved her Rigatoni! If this was our first go around, I would have given them a 4 but I'm only giving 3 stars because of the mixed results, and limited menu. I do believe they are heading in a good direction though. The atmosphere is on the fancier side and we found it a bit more on the quiet side this time around as well. I look forward to our next visit though to be honest.

    I have to say, their service over the last year has noticeably improved. Managers stand ready to…read morehelp and are extremely present.
