Food was absolutely fantastic. I had the bison short ribs. Fell off the bone tender. Our waiter was very knowledgeable of all the menu items and the drink menu. I would highly recommend checking this place out. We will be returning!

The eggs Benny are the best in town. I've eaten every breakfast option and this is hands my new fave. Tea biscuit instead of English muffin benny is the game changer. Fresh ingredients. Foodies enjoy!! Tip: Book a res and avoid the line!

This place is great. Our waiter Blake, as well as all the other staff, were great. We asked him a lot of questions and he was so nice and explained a lot about how the dishes are prepared and about the flavors etc etc. The food was delicious. I definitely recommend you make a reservation and dine here.

I was thrilled to find that this restaurant matched all the amazing reviews I had read about it. Every dish we tried was fantastic, and they had a wide variety of wines to choose from. I will definitely be returning the next time I'm in Banff.

Jade was a fantastic server! Her suggestions were spot-on and she was incredibly sweet to us.
