Foreign Concept - Reserva de mesa

Went here for dinner. The food was delicious. We had the brussel sprouts and Nashville hot chicken for our small plates. The chicken was alright but the brussel sprouts were very good. I would highly recommend ordering this as a starter. They give you plenty of the brussel sprouts to share for two people.For dinner we ordered a large plate of the short rib dish and the Vietnamese clay pot chicken. The short rib was very good. Highly recommend it. The clay pot chicken was good but this is not a shareable meal. It is a soup so you shouldn't be sharing it.I felt this place was a 4.5 out of 5. The taste of the food was excellent however I felt there approach to tell you to buy two small plates a...

Found this restaurant on avenue magazine and decided to give it a try. Overall I would rate is 4.5 and here is why. Pros: Nice decoration full of Asian culture, you have a choice between dining area and sit behind a bar for a quick drink. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Food is amazing. Cumin lamb is surprisingly tasty, papaya salad has all the right flavours, pork belly melts in your mouth, Peking duck is on the less greasy side and tasty,l.Winner of the night for me is the squid ink spaghetti with Tom yum coconut flavour sauce and loaded of seafood. It’s a must order.Cons: no AC on a 31+ days isn’t very pleasant, papaya salad portion is small (1-2 people), nothing special with the...

We had one of the best dining experiences of our lives tonight at Foreign Concept! The papaya salad was sweet and delicious with its wonderful dried satay. The duck dish was just perfect and very filling, and the calamari with green curry was creative and perfectly salted to my taste. Oh and the lemon curd beignet was to die for ! Also contrary to another review I read, we felt portions were generous.What really put the meal over the top was the very kind and genuine attention from Lanny who took care of us. Another highlight of the night we appear to have by coincidence been sat next to the owner of the restaurant Duncan Ly!

We had a mixed experience at Foreign Concept. We decided to go for small plates only to be able to try more. What we liked: the spring rolls, the papaya salad, the beef slides. What we missed: somehow missed the ‘excitement’ ‘spice’ for some dishes (eg Nashville chicken would have deserved a dip; Tuna tataki was missing some salty touch ; also, service was below what I would expect (no explanation of the menu, we had to ask for new water ourselves, … . Anyways, some nice dishes, but definitely room for better! 4 stars in benefit of the doubt, given staff situation is difficult these days! Reserva una mesa ahora

Wildly exceeded any expectations, all the dishes we tasted were perfection. Between 3 of us we shared the Tuna Sushimi, brussel sprouts, Nashville fried chicken, pork belly bao buns, and the Viet Clay pot. Cocktails were light and fresh; and we were treated to a birthday dessert as well. Our server was amazing, didn’t catch the name, but really was a big part of our fantastic experience tonight. Thank you for a great evening!

Each dish we had, had so much flair to it. They are quite unique.Favourite dish highlights: The sliders were savoury and melts in your mouth. The Siu mai was to die for. The duck with crepes was a different take on Peking duck. The milk baos were light, not overly sweet and felt like little pillows in your mouth.Service was exceptional and the drinks were delicious too! I'd highly recommend going here. Cheers.

Really great food, the composable dishes like the Lemongrass Glazed Duck Breast are super good all the food is interesting, and very tasty.Mama Ly's Pork Shrimp Imperial Rolls were awesome (and really filling), next time we were told to try the Fish Sauce Caramel Brussels Sprouts with rice.

Have been there couple times, enjoyed everything we tried, menu is very unique and creative. I really liked the Pork Belly Foie Gras Steamed Buns. Pork belly had lots fat on, thick cut, lean meat part wasn’t dry. Buns were nice and fluffy.Liked the decor, good environment, good service. Reserva una mesa ahora

Quick service, good vibe, and close to the Calgary Tower. We were in town for work and a colleague highly recommended we stop in here. Everything was delicious and I would go back just for the fried rice.
