    The food was outstanding and drinks were amazing! Kitchen is super quick and the entire atmosphere is so comforting. The hand rolls are to die for and so easy to eat. The level of communication and presence at the table was poor. I would have loved to order much more from Quinn, however, we sat waiting for too long during our seating to enjoy more. I would have loved to address this in person, our table truly just was not touched many times during service by anyone at all. Everything else was outstanding!

    Delicious food and cocktails. The homemade lemon soda is so good. The miso cucumbers are also very good. Everything is fantastic.

    Was a great late night out. $10 cocktails after 9pm is the perfect way to end a day. Tried basically every hand roll on the menu and loved all of them. Quinn was lovely and very attentive, without being intrusive. Will return again for daytime happy hour in the future.

    Yummy food and great vibes! Staff was all lovely! I do wish there were more mocktail options. But the lime soda was delicous!

    Quality of food has really decreased over the past year. Staff was not very attentive during my last visit.

    Stepping into Lonely Mouth - located in the Red Mile - before a Calgary Flames’ game meant stepping into an energetic, loud bar. (The background music was also louder than it needed to be.) But there was a feast ahead. We wouldn’t order the hand rolls again. Good, but not great - and minimal meat in AB Beef roll. Being able to order from a dedicated gluten-free menu was a benefit. Even tempura can be done gluten-free — and tastes just as good as the best tempura you’ve had. The bluefin tartare was accompanied by crisp house-made crackers. All excellent. The bar sports a decent selection of craft beers and a wide range of sake choices. All in all, an enjoyable dining experience, even if a bit loud. Total bill (including tax and tip) was $100 for two people.
