A little about this place
About D Spot Dessert Cafe Beltline Calgary
D Spot Dessert Cafe's 17th Avenue SW location is a late-night dessert cafe in Calgary's Beltline offering dine-in, takeout and delivery, part of a Calgary dessert-cafe group known for crepes, waffles, milkshakes and pistachio-based desserts alongside savoury items like poutine. Reviewers who had a good visit repeatedly praised specific desserts by name, including chocolate and strawberry-banana crepes and the milk cake, calling portions generous enough to split between two people, and several highlighted attentive servers who made helpful recommendations.
Set against that, a recurring complaint among other reviewers was inconsistent service on a given visit, from slow seating to staff who did not take orders promptly, and a related theme was inconsistent quality on some dessert and savoury items, including one dry, underflavoured tiramisu and a reviewer who said a waffle batter tasted spoiled. A single delivery order was reported to have arrived with visibly moldy fruit.
