The Room
Major Tom opened in 2020 on the 39th floor of Stephen Avenue Tower. The converted Calgary downtown skyscraper that previously housed the Petroleum Club. The room is dressed in mid-century-modern register: terrazzo, walnut, brass, with floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides giving views of the Bow River, the foothills, and the Calgary skyline. The dining room seats 130; the bar is walk-in.
Service is brigade-Canadian, formal but warm, fluent in the corporate-dinner rhythm. Calgary's banking corridor uses the room as a daily corporate-dinner address.
The Food
The kitchen runs a serious dry-aged Alberta beef programme. Cookshire ribeye, Lac-Brome New York strip, prairie porterhouse. Alongside Pacific shellfish (BC spot prawns, Tofino oysters) and a French-classical side menu. The wine programme runs deep with American Cabernet and Bordeaux benches.
Best Occasion Fit
Close a Deal: Major Tom is the Calgary deal dinner for the agreement that requires the corporate-core view register. The 39th-floor address communicates seriously.
Proposal: The window two-top facing the foothills at sunset is one of the most photographed proposal seats in Western Canada.
Impress Clients: International visitors recognise the view-dining format without translation. The Alberta beef programme translates the city correctly.
