Teatro, Italian restaurant in downtown Calgary, Canada
Teatro occupies a restored bank building featuring soaring ceilings, marble columns, and vintage architectural elements throughout the space. The original structure creates a refined setting for dining.
The restaurant opened in 1993 inside the former Dominion Bank building dating to 1911, preserving original features including the bank vaults. This conversion blends the past with present use.
The place honors Italian cooking traditions by sourcing ingredients directly from family-run producers in the Marche region. This commitment shapes how the kitchen approaches every dish served here.
The restaurant operates for lunch and dinner with extended hours on weekends. A large wine collection featuring Italian selections is stored in an underground cellar accessible to diners.
The kitchen uses a custom red grill imported from Tuscany that burns birch and fruit woods to create distinct flavors in grilled preparations. This specialized equipment shapes the character of the grilled dishes.
