Since opening its doors in 2022, KAMA has quickly earned a reputation as one of Calgary’s most celebrated dining destinations.

Nestled in Calgary’s Beltline, KAMA is a place for friends to gather, milestones to be celebrated and everyday moments to be shared. Good food, good company, and a little taste of the Mediterranean — right here at home.

Kama is always an incredible time. Danica was fantastic and gave us amazing recommendations for the menu. Staff were all very knowledgeable about every dish they presented. They also gave us some champagne and a signed card for our anniversary! Always a pleasure to dine here and will always recommend.

We celebrated a birthday at Kama with a range of menu items - a Mezze trio from the happy hour menu along with grilled Halloumi, pork belly, bison carpaccio, lamb sirloin and salmon. Everything is designed to share which offered the opportunity to experience a number of different dishes. We followed dinner with a sample of the three desserts on the menu. The food was delicious and the serving staff provided great service throughout the meal. Another excellent dining experience from the folks at Kama!
