"I have heard and read a lot of good things about Klein and Harris. So, one cold January day before a Theater Calgary performance, we decided that we needed to try it out. We had made reservations and were promptly lead to our table right...opposite the open kitchen so we could see all of the cooking action. We ordered our drinks (coffee for me and a Sazerac cocktail for my wife). My first quibble was the Sazerac... the authentic version should be made with Sazerac rye, which I know is available in Calgary (for example at Willow Park Liquor Store), but this one was made with bourbon. So, good, but not authentic, and at the prices they charge, Klein could use the real stuff. I decided to have two appetizers as my meal (the grilled Humbolt squid and the diver scallops) and my wife ordered the duck breast, which was described as shredded, but came as a complete breast. The squid was excellent, perfectly cooked with some green stuff on the side, but was a very small portion with only one tentacle a bit longer than my index finger. The scallops ere very good, as well, but I thought that for scallops was a bit much. My wife's duck came pink inside and was very tough and hard to cut, a disappointment to her when she was expecting something different. I also had to ask times for a coffee refill before finally getting it. So, overall pretty good food, spotty service and a difficult choice for me between and stars, but I finally went with due to the quality of my appetizer plates."
