Here are some of the best Calgary restaurants to take your family to for a comfortable and satisfying dining experience any day of the week!
Cibo
This Italian restaurant has more than enough space for the whole family and a menu that’s great for all family generations. Combine gourmet pizzas, pastas, tapas and gluten-free options with more than spacious seating / friendly service and you get one of the best Calgary family restaurants around!

Silver Dragon
Silver Dragon has some of the highest quality Chinese food I have had in Calgary. It is definitely one of the Best Calgary Dim Sum Restaurants there is, and is well worth a visit with the family on the weekend.
Silver Dragon is a very large restaurant with a decent table turnover and can seat very large groups. Be prepared to wait a short while on weekends since it’s almost always busy during dim sum hours, and for good reason! Mmmm… my mouth is watering just thinking of their dim sum.

Thomsons Restaurant
If you love family breakfast and brunch as much as I do, then you will absolutely love Thomsons Restaurant. On Sundays, Thomsons has a special all inclusive brunch that includes everything imaginable; Belgian waffles, eggs Benedict, bacon, sausage, yogurt, fruit, desserts, endless Tropicana beverages, even candy!
On top of an amazing selection of gourmet buffet food, Thomsons Restaurant has a very family friendly ambiance with spacious seating and their servers are simply amazing! Find out more at our Thomsons Calgary Restaurant Review.
