me and 2 friends from work are going down to Calgary this thursday to see KISS, and we're wondering of any good places to go for food. we'll prolly be down relatively early, so what do Calgary folks think?

Sushi Boat (in crowfoot) or Hana Sushi (17th ave & 4th st S.W.) - Hands down, the best sushi in Western Canada.

The Ship & Anchor Pub (17th Ave & 5th St. S.W.) - Always a good place to eat and hang out. Usually lots of people (especially girls) after 5. (and it's close to the Saddledome)

Laurier Lounge (kind of upper class-ish) - http://www.laurierlounge.com/



Definitely my top 3

closer to saddledome the better. I think that's where the concert is.

thank you for the suggestions, I'll keep them in mind.

any other places I should know about?

well, we went to Ship and Anchor. AMAZING pub. Thank you for that suggestion. service was amazing, and the food was even better!
