Led by co-chefs and co-owners John Jackson and Connie DeSousa, CHARCUT Roast House is one of Canada’s most lauded restaurants.
The restaurant’s every detail – from the reclaimed local barn wood panelling to the mason jar chandeliers – transports the authenticity and soul of local, farm-fresh producers and their flavourful ingredients to downtown’s most energetic restaurant and bar.
With house butchered meats, homemade preserves, seasonal menus, thoughtfully created cocktails, local craft beers, and a bustling open kitchen, Jackson, DeSousa and CHARCUT are helping put Calgary on the world’s culinary map.

    The waitress dropped tomato sauce on my beige skirt. No help was offered in trying to remove the stain. It’s ruined. Then our waitress came back to our table to let us know our order was lost and had to re-take it. Would never go back. Asked for club soda to remove the stain, but she didn’t bring any, so asked another waitress who brought some.

    Honestly Charcut has always been one of my favourite go to restaurants and this lunch experience was very disappointing. The lunch all at once had none of the garlic and dijon sides and the meat was dry and over done. Need to bring the quality back, please.

    We really enjoyed our experience at Charcut. Our friends had some food sensitivities that were handled without a hassle. Our cocktails were good. I had the fall cocktail and my husband had an old fashioned. The appies were good. We had the octopus and the beef carpaccio. We shared the ribeye and some carrots. The carrots were maybe undercooked because they were hard. All in all a nice experience. Thanks!
