New Calgary restaurants? Those are our three favourite words.

We’ve gone and collected a list of all the new YYC restaurants you should look into trying.

There is always a lot of chowing down for us to do in this city, and these new eateries make our to-eat lists longer than ever.

Here are eight new Calgary restaurants for you to try right now, or in the near future.

We love a bit of mystery, don’t you? This new concept from the Concorde Group is keeping things seriously under wraps prior to its spring opening. What we do know, is that patrons can expect to enjoy what Major Tom Bar has to offer “40 floors above it all.”

The Osaka-based brand is known for its “revolutionary cheese tarts” and cheesecakes in various flavours and sizes, and it’s set to open later this year at 602 16 Avenue NW in Calgary.
