N9na

While checking out the Calgary Scotiabank Saddledome we were getting hungry for lunch. So I had My 15-year old son search and he found N9NA (pronounced Naina). Our waitress, Lilyan, was fantastic and very friendly, and her food suggestions were excellent. I had a stuffed spinach mushroom and swiss burger with an upgrade to Poutine Fries. My wife had a stuffed cheddar and bacon burger. My boys had a 1/2 order of Nachos, which was ginormous, and a full Mac and Cheese, which is really cheesy. When we make it back to Calgary we are definitely hitting N9NA again.

If I could I might have given 0. We came here for lunch. We waited at least 15 minutes before they took our order followed by nearly an hour wait for the food. At one point it looked like they brought out food to another table, took it back to the kitchen waited 5 minutes and brought it back out. We ordered 2 burgers and a mac and cheese. The burgers were good enough but the fries were cold and the mac and cheese was too salt and dry. While we waited you could see other patrons also noticing the wait.

I tried the mac and cheese which was $8 and I'd say that it definitely was not worth the price. It just tastes like Kraft dinner mac and cheese with different pasta shells. When the waitress had given me a glass of water, it was really filthy and had a lot of stains. The water also seemed like there was something, like dust, mixed into it.

Food has always been good but food was delivered after one hour on our last visit. The service was very good though, just the delay which is obviously not the server's fault. Still a nice little joint, tucked away, good food. 👍 The Philly cheese burger is def worth trying. Portions of fries are huge.

It USED to be somewhat of a "hidden gem". Alas, no more. There's shabby chic and then there's just shabby. It feels quite run down. All three of us ordered "stuffed" burgers with fries. The burgers were ok, but there was little evidence that they were "stuffed" with anything. Not great. The fries were terrible—limp and soggy. We were the only people in the place at the time. There's no excuse for being served inedible fries. It's not like the kitchen was swamped or anything. Supposedly three beers on tap. Not a great selection to begin with, and they weren't available anyway because their equipment was broken. It's good, I suppose, that a little place like this was able to survive the two years of the pandemic. So many didn't. Sadly, though, it's no longer a place to recommend.

One of the best places to visit on 17th Avenue SW. I have been there about a dozen times. My first visit was when a friend invited me for drink. Some of the best wines are served there. The wings and nachos are really mouth watering. This keeps me going back even though it's quite a drive from where I live. Great and prompt service! During my most recent visit, I was entertained by live music.
