BODEGA by Sabor
When Christian Mena and chef Lino Oliveira opened BODEGA by Sabor in Mission, they brought 12 years of Spanish and Portuguese dining expertise south from Edmonton. The concept began as overflow seating at their flagship restaurant, SABOR, where guests were served tapas in a space Oliveira called “the BODEGA.” That small lounge evolved into seven Edmonton-area locations before landing in Calgary. The menu features family-style dinners and a popular Thursday night special offering of eight tapas for $88, and a featured bottle of wine, with new tapas selections appearing weekly. Signature dishes include piri-piri prawns, lobster risotto, seafood Spanish rice (their version of paella), and bacon-wrapped dates, which support Brown Bagging for Calgary’s Kids. Oliveira uses his Portuguese upbringing to shape dishes with Alberta ingredients like brassica mustard. This mix of humble, traditional flavours and local products has quickly made the Mission location a destination for authentic Spanish cuisine.
