Had our work dinner at 525 Restaurant at Woodside golf course. Had a group of 18 and our waitress, JJ and her team hit it out of the park. Really great service, great food and prices were on Par too. Highly recommend. 525 Restaurant & Patio
What a wonderful evening at this restaurant. The ambience, the decor, food and service, all combined made a great night experience. Every dish was tasty, including appetizers and desserts. The scallops, mushrooms and bruschetta were fantastic, loved my steak and cheesecake. Thank you to our waitress Alyssa for her service. Highly recommend it if you are in Airdrie.
made a reservation for a holiday celebration and were greeted with kindness and enthusiasm by the staff, food was delicious the bison pasta was one of our favourites, very creamy and savoury (thanks for the recommendation tanya) and the chicken apple brie is filling, delicious and clean. Many side options and cocktails were delicious. The smoked old fashioned was unique and smooth. Service was excellent and will be back soon!
We went there for the first time for the weekend brunch buffet and the food was amazing! Just sitting there, watching the lady manager working together with her team is a treat by itself. We will be back!
My first time here was for my birthday lunch with two friends. I ordered the steak tacos which was delicious. Steak was tender and juicy, loaded with veggies. They gave me a birthday cheesecake with berry sauce, which was a really nice touch and a sweet treat. This long weekend we went for their Sunday Brunch. It had quite a good selection from salads to cocktail shrimps to hot dishes to roasted beef to desserts. The kids love their mac and cheese, tatter tots, and the chocolate fountain. We love their shrimps, eggs benedicts, and desserts (tiramisu was very nice). The roasted beef had lots of flavour, however was as tender or juicy as we would like. Overall, it was a very good meal with complimentary coffee or tea. We love how their friendly staff with great service. The ambience is very cozy and relaxing, which always makes a great dining experience. Highly recommended to come for any occasion.
We have lived in the area and had never been here, but had heard good things. We went for lunch and had a great experience. Great food and service and really nice atmosphere. We are kicking ourselves for waiting 12 years to make the 2min drive over to try it…looking forward to coming back.
Sunday brunch at this place is fantastic. $33 per adult and $28 for seniors. I was really impressed by the selection, quality and taste. The eggs benedict were the best I have ever had in my life. there was an L shaped set up for all the deserts and chocolate fountain as well as an omelette station for those who wanted it cooked fresh. The hip of beef was huge and looked great but with everything else, including mounds of peeled shrimp, I stayed away. I would not hesitate to go back there for their brunch. Coffee/tea was included in the price and my granddaughter's Shirley Temple was an easy $4. Thank you management and staff.
We came for lunch yesterday (Saturday afternoon) and ordered the following: The Albertan, Ginger Beef Bowl, Tenderloin Tacos, Braised Bison Parpedelle, Warm Chocolate Brownie. Drinks: 525 Caesar, Jaffa Cake Hot Chocolate. Atmosphere 5⭐️ | Service 5⭐️ | Food 5⭐️ They are open year round! Warm cozy fireplaces and huge contemporary dining area. Every dish we ordered was absolutely delicious, full of flavor, with plenty of meat, and excellent portion size 🙌 Will definitely be returning to try their Sunday brunch!😋 IG: @biteonthisyyc
Good was great and delicious. Service was a bit slow for drinks, but otherwise, no complaints. Will come back.
Had the steak sandwich, chicken curry rice bowl and kids pizza. Steak was a tiny bit overdone. Cut was good (not much fat) added salt and pepper. It comes with mushrooms and onions and garlic bread, and we got taters as our side. The curry bowl was full of flavor and contained lots of chicken! Kid-friendliness: My son thought the kids menu was funny. Everything was $10 and comes with a drink and ice cream
We visited for Sunday brunch. There was enough variety for our group, and the prices were good. We attended later in the day, so it wasnt busy, the staff was fantastic and attentive.
Very good! Ill be back
The food was delicious, the kids loved the menu and the staff were super friendly, our server, Oslo, was attentive and sweet and made our night enjoyable! We will definitely be back
The only good thing is the view to the golf course. Food is not good, I got very oily burger which I could not even eat. Cleaning, service are not good neither. The server wiped the table with smelly old rag in front of us while we were sitting at the table then it was a happy hour, and she still charged us full price for the food. Ingredients of the food tasted old (dry old rice, old patty for the burger). I tried this place two times, both were big disappointments. Do not recommend at all. They need to care more about their service, cleanliness quality of food
4 of us met for lunch today. It was the first time here for all of us. I believe our servers name was Samantha. She was absolutely fantastic and our lunch and cocktails (that were recommended by our server)were so delicious. We all got different things so we could try each others meals. Very impressed. We will most definitely be back.
Great family location.
Such a cool spot! I am so used to pub food at a golf course but WOW the food was amazing and the service was also top notch! Will definitely go again :)
Food is very good and the staff are pleasant always clean
Had the Sunday brunch.
This was the first time eating at 525. Upon arriving, we were greeted with very friendly staff and seated right away. You may want to call ahead to determine if busy or do the on line reservation. The food was very good. Certainly, the portion size was generous! Our waitress was great! Excellent service! This restaurant is located at Woodside Golf Course in Airdrie, but its worth the drive to head up. The food was very good. We will definitely be going back again! Everyone in our group felt like we had discovered a real gem of a restaurant!
We were here for a family members high school grad dinner and as well the mom and sister and other family were present. Started off fine with drink orders and ordering off the menu but thats kinda where it turned a bit Received appetizers then waited quite a while for mains and then it did come out, it was staggered and very disorganized. Some of us waiting for food for a while after everyone got theirs. My steak was good but needed to be trimmed better as some bites were chewy and sides were alright, veg was forgettable but did enjoy the roasted potatoes and the peppercorn sauce. Throughout had to ask for refills and server seemed a bit inattentive which I will touch a bit more at the end with a a theory. Plates started getting cleared bit by bit but it was quite staggered as mostly everyone got there food at different times. Waited quite a while and was offered the dessert menu, knew what I wanted so order right away. Again the ordering was awkward as some were offered and some not and took a long time for the server to reappear again. Theory is that they were short staffed, too large of sections for servers and the kitchen wasnt being ran effectively. Overall we were there for 2.5 hours and a bit more. Service seemed slow both end but food was good. Wish portions were a bit bigger Also second time but wasnt there for the first where they wanted to separate the group because of space. Dont understand since where we were seated did have enough room for more tables. Luckily we had no shows and was able to everyone sit at the table. Apprehensively would be back
Dinner on the deck at the golf course. A very nice server who was quick to get orders and had a sense of humor. Prosecco Prawns were so good we ordered more. Bison stroganoff was excellent. Steak sandwich was noted as a pleasant surprise as it was served as an actual sandwich and very well presented. Apple, goat cheese sandwich with chutney was nice but for personal tastes ONLY thought the chutney was too much. Mentioned this after to the server, who suggested bacon jam be substituted next time. ITS a staff favorite. WE ALL AGGREE, wed definitely go back!! Dietary restrictions: GF. Parking: Its a golf course..theres parking Kid-friendliness: Young people golfing with their parents welcome. Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp in front and appears to have room between tables.
Normally this place is great but as our Jr. golfer was out today we were not served at all. The restaurant was not too busy and I dont think its unreasonable to have someone come by in an hour and a half.
This is our second time here. After the renovation and perhaps new management, I am blown away by the selection and quality of the food at 525. Great atmosphere, delicious food and very friendly, professional staff. Highly recommend! 12/10
First impressions make a difference! My friend and I arrived a bit earlier than our reservation and were greeted with a friendly hello. We were seated immediately and and it wasnt long before our orders were taken. Ive been looking for a new place to go that isnt just another typical fast food or chain restaurant and Ive finally found it! The food was delicious, the service was warm and friendly (thank you Tanea) and the atmosphere was very nice. If you want to have a nice sit down dinner with quality food and reasonable pricing then this is the place. I will definitely recommend to my family and friends and look forward to my next visit.
Very nice place but not a sports bar
Went here for the first time for the Sunday brunch. The food and service was great. It will definitely be our go to buffet for brunch!
First time visiting since the renovations. Great atmosphere, delicious food, and friendly staff. Definitely worth checking out again!
Hey guys, the 525 is a recent redesigned restaurant. The kitchen staff has been replaced over the years and the new crew is great. Lots of yes chefs coming outta the kitchen the service and atmosphere is great. The Sunday brunch is the highlight and its worth your first test if youre ever gonna give it a go. The girls keep this place at a great point. The waitresses are great and really know the clients and ppl well. My 8 month old smiles when He sees any of them haha. They also have a old style cigar room that is private for bdays or what ever you could think of for events. Wine cellar is huge Im a scotch person, and the menu doesnt disappoint. The 525 also feeds the winter Sim golf patrons and that is why woodside is my place for sim golf too. Darcy and Mark are great upfront staff and golf associates...guys give woodside a run this year its great and revamped. You can get a discount on brunch with a round of golf. Vegetarian options: They have salads with every veggie you want cut thin, or sliced In a loonie fashion. Parking: Mid golf season parking lot is very full, street parking is very open.
We had our Anniversary dinner here and it was fantastic. It was our first time here since becoming 525 and we ll definitely be back again. JJ was our waitress, she was fabulous!!! Can t wait to get on the patio!
Formal and casual at the same time. We had a very pleasant anniversary dinner here. Will be returning for sure.
Best service and food ever David is fantastic. Thanks Food
My wife and I live local to this establishment and have visited a few times. The atmosphere is great, the service is warm and friendly and the food is awesome. Dave the Chef (I believe) checks in with customers when available and genuinely cares about the food and service experience. You cannot go wrong enjoying a meal at the 525!
Great place!! Little hidden gem! Food was good, not great but good. Teriyaki bowl could have used some more sauce and the steak tacos, were good but in my opinion, I feel the steak should be cut in strips not cubes! Just an idea!! However, you have one amazing server... Tanea is an absolute gem! She made our date night so fun. Its not often we can get a night out kid free, so to be able to do it and have her as our server, it was awesome! She is so sweet, very knowledgeable about the menu, has a calm, relaxing demeanor! She is just amazing!! In todays world, great staff are hard to come by!! We know also that she is in school, but hang on to this one and take care of her! Just an incredible server and made our date night extra special! We will be back!!!! PS your watermelon gin cocktail is to die for! My new favorite for sure!!! Thank you Tanea, wish you all the very best!
Amazing food, service & atmosphere! Definitely a must for foodies!
Great food, very nice restaurant, great quality for the price. Would eat here again!
The restaurant is nice and has a quiet and calm feel to it and our server was good. I got the gluten free braised bison parpedelle and it was super average. They didnt have the parpedelle pasta (said they were out of the gf one?) and the penne was overcooked and falling apart in the sauce. A little pepper kind of saved it but it was fairly bland. The mushroom caps were however, quite tasty and we devoured those. Not rushing back but Id give it another try after a day on the course.
Had a girls brunch planned there. We didnt realize that on Sundays it was buffet. Our waitress talked to the kitchen and we were able to order from the breakfast menu. We all chose different items and they were all fantastic. Service was also wonderful. This will be our go-to place in Airdrie. Heading back soon to try the lunch and dinner menus!
We were there during the week so it was fairly quiet which suited us fine. Very enjoyable experience. Food
Great atmosphere
What an amazing spot! We really enjoyed our cocktails here. The prices are great and the staff were all super cool! If you are wanting a modern restaurant/bar experience, this is the place. Food
This is a hidden little treasure right at the woodside golf course. Weve been here a few times now, and have enjoyed first class food and service every single time. The food is amazing.
Had a fantastic family dinner here. Service was friendly and attentive. The menu contains a wide range of options from a simple clubhouse sandwich to a 7oz filled mignon. There were 5 of us and so we tried a good chunk of the menu. The bison meatloaf served on a bed of homemade Mac and cheese was amazing and so was the avocado chicken sandwich. The homemade onion rings cant be missed. The French onion soup was good, but the puff pastry topper was too dense and thick to work. The maple balsamic scallops are good, but the grade of scallop is quite small and gets lost in the glaze and mango salsa topper. Desserts were quite good - wish they were made in house (lemon meringue pie was not for sure). The cocktails were interesting but the glass of wine felt a bit old and flat - was no longer crisp like the bottle had been opened a few days ago. Nice to see Niagara wines on the menu.. We will definitely be back and are VERY grateful that Airdrie has such a cool gem.
Went on a Thursday night.. and enjoyed ourselves. Service was great, food was really good and prices are reasonable. It s not just another bar-wing- same old thing that we seem to get in Airdrie. Keep up the good work!
I been in this restaurant more than 3 times and every time I enjoyed myself. The food is amazing the portions are perfect, the service is super friendly and fast, prices are reasonable. The renovation looks awesome very fancy love the new look. I do recommend this place 100%
Came for brunch with my family after my dad finished work. Their brunch buffet is from 9am to 2pm.. we got there for 1pm after his shift and there were literally scraps left .. I filled up on Mac and cheese the few potatoes I could grab and the roast beef which was the only highlight .. but overall dissapointed .. a buffet should be refilled until at least 30 minutes before closing.. first and last time we will be visiting unfortunately ...
Went here for a staff function, food was good, service was horrible, server could only carry 2 drinks at a time on her tray. Had to ask multiple times for drinks that never arrived. Im not sure if she was new, but definitely needs better training. Table behind me asks for colas three times, and it took her 40 minutes to bring them, definitely not impressed.
Absolutely fantastic. Food and cocktails were sooooo good and our waitress was lovely!! Beautiful lounge too, makes me want to take up golf lol. Highly recommend all around :)
We came here for dinner a couple months ago I was enthralled with the food but my guest was not and said there was a smell similar to cow poop.none the less I was dining alone for thanksgiving and hoped to attend the buffet numerous calls were made and I was transferred all over the build days after I left a voice mail which was never returned not impressed.
Great menu options and reasonable prices! Food was delicious!
We had Thanksgiving dinner here and it was so very good. Our server was super lovely, friendly and efficient. I can t remember her name, other than she hadn t been with you long.
The BEST restaurant in Airdrie ! We had a lovely family meal here - service was outstanding to the little ones as well as us adults. Everyone enjoyed their meal - the atmosphere just made us stay a little longer :). Thank you 525 - we will be back!
Great food at a fair price in a nice atmosphere.
This little gem will not stay hidden long. Enjoyed a birthday lunch (6 guests), and it was a delightful experience. We missed the breakfast menu, but the lunch menu had all the fare that would want me coming back again. The restaurant was not particularly full, so seating was quick. Our server J was prompt, attentive, knowledgeable, and made great suggestions off the menu. I had a rum and coke old fashioned- a unique and welcomed change from the old old fashioned. My steak sandwich was presented in a taco format, which was unexpected and nothing Ive experienced before. Well done! The food itself was prepared well and wasnt goopy as tacos could be. Again, it was a delightful surprise. Highly Recommended!
Well I guess you don t want to go when there is one hour and a bit left for Sunday brunch. Only 5 tables had customers not busy at all the staff were not interested in serving us we had to get up and ask for service. No offer of would you like another beverage ? as an example. You TRY to spend money at a restaurant restaurants complain about low revenues? Train and observe your staff in action !!! so apathetic towards customers at this location. When we arrived we observed the hostess chatting & laughing with other staff didn t bother to acknowledge us another staff member had to interrupt her to do her job. We realized after the fact that the Manager ??? Other staff ??? had passed by us twice while we were waiting to be seated in the lobby no acknowledgment from him whatsoever. The food was ok we had the breakfast buffet. Some items empty ( pastries ) or overcooked. Certainly will favour other brunch options in Airdrie. Was looking forward to a nice dining experience well not today.
New favourite in airdrie! This restaurant is an amazing elegant spot for dinner that our city has! Went for dinner and Tania recommended the dinner for two special which was a bargain! Comes with an appetizer two mains and two desserts for $60. The bruschetta was to die for and the main portion sizes are so generous we barely had room for dessert. The crepes flambé was an experience id have to come again for they were a great recommendation. Definitely put this treasure on your list!
excellent service
We recently hosted an event at this venue and every aspect of our experience was outstanding. David was so helpful in understanding our wishes and ensuring that everything was ready. Our servers and bartender were impeccable in providing our guests with everything as well as helping us to organize and decorate. The chef(s) ensured a beautiful presentation of our food choices and the appetizers were delicious and enjoyed by all. They were very responsive to and careful about food allergy issues in our group and that was deeply appreciated. Thank you to everyone at 525 who made our event so special!
