Went for dinner for our first anniversary. The wait staff/hostess were top notch. We had "pick me up on 17th" and Lions, Tigers and Pears to start. Excellent cocktails. We ordered the Fondue for 2 (came with bread) and added on seasonal vegetables and chicken thighs as an add on. Quite filling.

The atmosphere was very cozy and warm, especially on a cold day. Sitting by the fireplace felt incredibly nice and created a calm, comfortable mood that made the visit much more enjoyable.

We hosted a beautiful birthday celebration for my niece at the Living Room last night. Upon arrival our table for 9 guests was beautifully prepared, setting the mood for what was a magical evening.

Had an outstanding dinner last night at The Living Room. Lee was our server and she was so expert - down to earth and warm but very professional. Classy!

It was an amazing experience. The service was top notch and the food was amazing. It was a very comfortable environment as well. The appetizers were delicious and the cheese fondue was second to none.

Long-standing dining spot with cool vibe in along 17th Ave. SW. They continually up their game and stay on top of all facets of the restaurant business. I highly recommend the salmon.

Absolutely fantastic. We were out for our 15th anniversary. Our server was welcoming, warm and efficient. Excellent selection of alcohol free cocktails. The food was some of the best we’ve had. We’re vegetarian and we were blown away by the burrata, eggplant parmigiana and truffle gnocchi.

Another amazing meal at the living room. From the oysters Rockefeller through the tasting menu and premium wine offerings, we left satiated and impressed!
