Buzzard's Cowboy Cuisine Review

An authentic cowboy restaurant with great Alberta steaks and terrific burgers, Buzzard's serves up good western food amid rustic country-style decor and cowboy artifacts. If you're feeling brave, this is one of the few places in Calgary where you can sample prairie oysters, otherwise known as bull testicles. The place is renowned for its annual "testicle festival." There's a sunny outdoor patio, and Bottlescrew Bill's Old English Pub next door serves Calgary's largest beer selection, including Buzzard's Breath Ale house brew.

    Decent place!

    Ate their with my wife. My dinner lamb chops was good and so were the vegetables with them. My wife ordered a bison burger medium. Waiter said he would try but the cook failed badly over cooked. Prairie Oysters were OK. This place did not seem like an authentic cowboy bar either. Buzzard’s Breath was good. Alberta microbrew crops are pretty lame but this one was good.
