Located in Calgary’s East Village, Fortuna's Row offers a captivating Latin American dining experience in a stylish, expansive space that once housed a textile factory. Winner of Calgary's Best Restaurants by Avenue Magazine and placing on Air Canada EnRoute's Shortlist, Fortuna's Row has made an impact on Calgary's culinary scene. Executive Chef Mikko Tamarra curates a contemporary Latin American menu that expertly blends traditional ingredients with a contemporary flair that lends itself to an authentic, yet exceptionally modern, selection of Latin American dishes. The restaurant's design features beach-inspired elements, wood finishes, and lush plants that creates an inviting and luxurious atmosphere. Perfect for a night out or a special event, Fortuna’s Row delivers an experience that is truly an escape from the ordinary.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Mikko Tamarra

From the OpenTable editors: Fortuna's Row’s setting in a soaring warehouse space sets the stage for a menu with equally lofty aspirations. Chef Mikko Tamarra’s background in groundbreaking kitchens like Mexico City’s Pujol is evident in dishes such as esquites with brown butter hollandaise. A stellar brunch and playful experiences like a taco omakase menu make this a spot that warrants repeat visits.

We really enjoyed the “let us feed you experience” and tried a number of things we wouldn’t have otherwise. Lots of incredible dishes, huge fan of the two ceviches we tried in particular, and the bread dish was a surprising gem. Not a huge dessert person but would 100% order the Tres Leches again.

I found it odd that the very first thing we were told when we were shown our table was that we had to be finished by 8pm. It wasn’t really very welcoming of the host. Otherwise the server and food was great. It was hard to hear in there. Not sure if it’s the concrete.

The food was ok, not great but we had a nice evening nonetheless. The service for the most part was great. The only real issue was we had a table of 6 (3 couples) when they brought the bill we were told that we couldn’t split the bill into thirds… they would only accept 1 payment card. Bizarre, considering it would only be 3 transactions. I understand this policy if you have a large group but 6 people hardly constitutes a large party. The 20% auto gratuity for a table of six was a surprise as well.

The restaurant is excellent, the only concern relates to the parking lot, it was very icy and dangerous to walk through; I suggest that some amour of sand needs to be distributed in order to prevent sliding and falling

I feel like for how completely average the food was the price is a little insane. Nothing wowed me - however the empanadas were delicious and desert was very good. Ambiance is wonderful, server was lovely and attentive. I’d probably just go here for some cocktails and a little appy..
