    Excellent food and service, plus a beautiful view from the dining room! We loved everything, from the NA drinks to the bread plate with flakey sea salt to the well cooked game meats. Dessert had fun options and some great coffee drinks too. Highly recommend, even if it's a little splurge!

    WOW!! The food here was INCREDIBLE!! My husband and I were Lucky to stay at the emerald Lake lodge resort this weekend. This restaurant is in the main lodge and the food and service were FABULOUS! We had dinner here both nights and I HIGHLY recommend the mushroom risotto, salmon, buffalo, and chicken. Michelle our waitress was very kind. I would recommend anybody to dine here even if you are not staying at the lodge! But you must make reservations!

    Amazing food, atmosphere and service!! HIGHLY, HIGHLY and I stress HIGHLY recommend the chicken and or the steak!! Our server Felicia was top notch; she knows the menu, knows the area, she's all around amazing! Be sure to ask for her, you won't be disappointed!

    The dining room is not very large, so for parties greater than 4 people, it's hard to get a table without a reservation. For our party of 6, we didn't have a reservation since we were driving from very far away and couldn't pin down our timing, so initially we were told to go to the other side of the lodge's check-in desk for first-come-first-serve seating at the Kicking Horse Lounge for guests without reservations. After waiting 30 min and still no seats opened up at the Kicking Horse Lounge, it was getting late, past 7:30pm, and there happened to be one table of 6 that was still empty at Mount Burgess, so the server seated us even without a reservation. We ordered the foie gras & duck confit brulee appetizer (which tasted like a dessert!), grilled lamb chops, Brome Lake duck breast, Atlantic salmon, and Alberta beef tenderloin as our mains; and the molten cake and the raspberry curd tart as desserts. The beef tenderloin and lamb chops were absolutely amazing, very flavorful and tender. The Brome Lake duck breast was very interesting, complex, and delicious. The salmon was nice and tender. The raspberry curd tart was very good and not too sweet. The molten chocolate cake unfortunately was no longer "molten" (more like a solid) by the time it was served to us. We waited an extremely long time between our appetizer and mains, and between our mains and dessert. We were already tired from all-day driving to get to Emerald Lake Lodge, so waiting a long time for a table, and then waiting a long time in between courses added to our exhaustion. Overall the food was great, the ambience was great, but just be prepared to wait.

    We ate here every night we were in Banff! Sure, there's lots…read moreof options, but this was where I felt the most comfortable eating, vegan options and knowing that my food would not be crossed contaminated. Service was excellent! Staff were so friendly impatient with us even when they were so busy most nights. We were creative and got something different to try each night and we liked everything. Something else we like more than others and would get over and over again and that includes the mushroom ravioli, cheesy gnocchi, the purple haze smoothie and kimchi burger. And I believe my husband really enjoyed his legume burger and I enjoyed my falafel salad however I substituted my falafel's for tofu. Ambience is great not too loud indoor and outdoor seating. Good for individuals or large groups.

Very unique menu - they…read morehave taken an asian twist and have unique dishes like cucumber with peanuts and kimchi burger and the world famous nacho with 27 items (including orange, strawberry and mango plus lentils etc). The outdoor seating during summer while looking at the Rocky Mountains was spectacular- bring some mosquitoes spray / they will enjoy biting you, while you enjoy the food :) The service was great - we asked for extra ice and they got it - we hung out late and the staff was so accommodating. 5/5 for service! The food for me was 3/5 and the ambiance was 5/5.

    Unique spot at Lake Louise, albeit not near Lake Louise. It reminds us of Acadia National Park's…read moreJordan Pond House, known for their popovers and view. Similarly, Lake Agnes also has a commanding view, and Tea! There are several dozen varieties of hot tea, plus cold sandwiches (we had cucumber and hummus sandwiches), assorted biscuits and pastries- but sadly (yet not so sadly), no coffee. Foods at the house are cash only; the line on the steps on the right is for seating; the line on the left is for take out. Should you take out, as we did- and sit along the water- beware of the chipmunks, and do not let their cuteness disarm you. They will sneak up, climb on you, and pull food from your unsuspecting hands. THink seagulls at the beach...cute scavengers with no ethics who pray on the unaware. To earn your tea, you will need to hike to Lake Agnes. It was 5 miles from parking lot to tea and back, so roughly 2.5 each way. Yes, it is uphill; yes, you will need legitimate footwear, water, bear spray (on off seasons especially), and rain gear or whatever else you would need. In August, the trail was well travelled, so you were never alone with the bears. The view from the top is commanding, and you will see Mirror Lake on the way as well. We started to hike from Lake Agnes to the Little Beehive- another mile each way- but we decided against it, as my wife's boots were bothering her. The teahouse is a neat spot, and those who can hike to it will appreciate leaving the influencers at Lake Louise behind to go earn your tea!

    This was one of my motivations (aside from the views) of hiking around Lake Louise. I had seen so…read moremany videos about this place that I knew I had to check it out for myself. The journey up isn't too bad, but near the top there are a lot of horse droppings. When you arrive, there's a stunning view of a lake right in front of the tea house. They have two separate lines, one for dining in and one for to-go. The seating accommodations are minimal, but they will do their best to get you in. The food and tea itself aren't anything to write home about, but it's mostly the ambiance and aesthetics that keep this place going. They do ask you to take your trash down with you if possible, which is a bit of a hassle, but worth it to help do your part!

    Called to make a reservation the day of. Got seated within 5 min of our arrival…read more Service was friendly and this place has good vibes. Was hoping to get there early enough for their early dinner special which looks like a fantastic deal but forgot Golden is on MST so our arrival was actually an hour later than we thought. Started with the sticky ribs which were good but not fall off the bone tender. Also having it served with tortilla chips was weird bc there's nothing to dip the tortilla chips in. Got the sirloin steak with seasonal veggies, mashed potatoes and garlic sauce. There was a sweetness to the sauce which I found interesting. The steak was cooked well and tender. My friend got the cannelloni which was filled with veggies, sausage and cheese. It was served piping hot and he enjoyed his dish as well. We would return

Came across this restaurant and decided to give it a try and I'm so glad we did! Their first hour they have meal deals which were really worth it! The restaurant was really fancy looking much more than I expected. We ordered: 1. Pork Kim Chi Pot stickers: These were just okay. Kind of tasted like it was from a package and just boiled and headed up to serve and not as much hand made there. 2. The dragon plate over pasta: Holy crap this was SOOOO GOOD! The waitress was so amazing and recommended we get the dragon plate over something instead like pasta because it soaks up the sauce better and she was so right! The sauce was amazing I wish I had bread to soak it up. There was so much seafood and it was so fresh. The quality of the seafood was also amazing. 3. House daily pasta with chicken: Super good and perfectly good chicken. The sauce was also amazing with this. My wife ordered this so she ate most of it but I liked it a lot. 4. Cookies and cream cheese cake: Exactly as you'd expect it to taste. Rich cheesecake and nice crunches from the oreo. Overall, we had such a great experience here. It was easily the best thing we ate on our banff trip. The waitress was sooooo nice and gave us such excellent recommendations. We were so lucky to have randomly come across this place on Yelp and that they opened right when we got there. This is a must try restaurant.
