    Summer salad with salmon
    Karen M.

    We sat at the railing on the restaurant, which was great for looking out at the mountains or people watching. We had the cornbread, crispy chicken with honey sauce and a summer salad with salmon. All three were delicious. The salad was tomatoes, cucumber, salmon, BC peaches in a tasty vinaigrette. The peaches weren't soft, so I would venture to say they may not have been ripe. It ended up being a bit pricy ($38 CAD). The crispy chicken was fried perfectly with a sauce that wasn't spicy and was a little sweet. The cornbread was some of the best I've had and came with a homemade whipped butter. Daisy, our server, was imperative to helping with our decisions and she seemed excited about everything in the menu. The food came out in an appropriate time. I have zero complaints about the food, but it is on the pricier side for one main entree and two appetizers. They should fix some things in the women's bathroom. The tissue paper box is positioned in a way where it makes it almost impossible to enter a stall without hitting your back on the box. There are only hook and eye latches and it is impossible to tell is someone is in a stall. Ergo, someone pushed my door open even though it was latched. All in all, I would come back and try some other things on the menu.

    Great food and super drink selection. Atmosphere was active and interesting. We were seated quickly and server was very interactive and interesting, although at times he seemed to go missing, either with other tables or in the back. We had to check out with someone else because we didn't know where he was. Great place and highly recommend.

    Came in on Sunday for dinner and the prime rib was on sale for $39.99. The place is definitely loud but not terribly loud that you can't have conversations. Food didn't come out the same time. Drinks came out a little later than the food. The smores espresso martini wasn't too sweet or strong. It was just right. The service is great here. The staff is very accommodating and attentive. If you get the truffle fries, I would highly recommend getting the truffle mayo dip with it too.

    I went here twice with friends during our Banff trip because we just loved their drinks and vibe so much! They have a great cocktail menu, and you're bound to find at least one that you just want to keep ordering. They're open probably the latest out of most bars, so my friends and I stayed out really night trying out a bunch of drinks from their menu. Their service is great--I highly recommend!

    It's not always about the beer... sometimes it's about the bartender who makes you forget you were only stopping in for one. If you see Pilar, you've hit the customer service jackpot. Top tier service, great vibes, and somehow the beer and cocktails taste even better. Coincidence? I think not.

    Rotisserie Chicken Burger
    Jamie R.

    Food was great all around, I loved the rotisserie chicken burger, definitely recommend! Server was very nice and also hilarious! Cool multi floor restaurant with multiple bars and lots of different seating options (booth, table, bar, and even picnic tables inside?!) This place is pretty highly rated and id say it's well deserved!

    Corn bread
    Scott G.

    Absolutely loved this place. Their house whiskey is legit. Corn bread is the best I've ever had(don't tell my mom). Bison burger was so good. Interior is really cool decor with 2 levels and a bar on each level. Awesome balcony views. Service was top notch

    drinks

    drinks were sooooo yummy service can b a bit slow but overall great place to drink and see views in banff especially the upper area outside pretty quiet but has tv and sports games on so ur never bored! inside has alot of things to see like the distillery and nice interior

    Great service, tasty flavorful good with a good portion, a nice selection for kids option. Dining area can be loud when it gets busy. Prices are reasonable. First time here in Calgary and it is just right across from our hotel so we can walk home if we had a few drinks without needing to catch a ride back to our hotel with kids. They have a free distillery tour as well.

    Annex RootBeer, Elder Flower Spritz & Skokie Maple Old Fashion
    Matt P.

    Was able to book this on OpenTable. The doors open to allow fresh air and light to come in. This added to our dining experience as you can see the cars/buses and people just walking around outside and you can hear the commotion. I enjoyed the atmosphere it created. Now, the drinks here are pretty good and they use their own spirits. But what I really liked was the Annex rootbeer they served. It was so good that I am still thinking about it til this day. Unfortunately, it's only available in Canada so I'm a little bummed. It doesn't give off that sugary processed aftertaste you get with most root beers. A must try if you come. Just keep in mind that it's not free refills. We ended up ordering the rib eye 16oz. and in about 5 minutes, the food came out and I was like, that was really quick. Then I saw that they actually gave me the prime rib instead. I spoke to our server and she messed up the order and she kind of sold us on keeping the prime rib. We are glad we kept it because it was really good. The smoke flavor really put this one up there. Although I would have been happy with the ribeye, the smokiness really helped enhance the flavor. I was still a bit hungry afterwards because we planned to share the 16oz. ribeye, but the prime rib was only 12oz. and it did have an ounce or so of just fat that wasn't edible. Our server was great and I also noticed how personable their wait staff was because they all were engaging with their tables. We were able to ask for advice on what to do and what to avoid and that really helped us plan the rest of our time in Banff. This is a definite bookmark for the next time.

    Bison burger
    Susie Z.

    This place was recommended to us by a tour guide. We got the bison burger and the gnocchi. The lemon flavor in the gnocchi was good and it was very strong and lemon forward, and the bison burger (which is what they are known for) was good too. Personally the fries that came with the burger was the best part of the meal. The service was also a little slow but the restaurant was not busy (we were on a time crunch). So if you are on a time crunch I might recommend going somewhere else because they took their time. I would recommend coming here if you're looking for something safe and basic. It looks like they have typical bar food and some of the wood fired dishes such as the chicken or ribs sounded good. They do have sports displaying on the televisions so if you wanted a place to watch sports and take your time this might be the place!

    Had a Buffalo burger and loved it. My girlfriend got the park burger and it has sauce that's made from horseradish which my gf can't stand. We traded our main courses and I thought her burger was good too. We both loved the fries. Had some cocktails made from the whiskey, vodka, and gin made here and we enjoyed the maple whiskey the best. The spinach dip was great. Server was good and friendly. Sat outside it was a little chilly but still nice. I would have gave this restaurant five stars but as my girlfriend pointed out in the description and ingredients for the park burger they don't say anything about horseradish which to me is a big no no.

Our server was very friendly albeit a bit frazzled, but the vibes were great all around. One of the best things about Banff Ave Brewing is that all appetizers are half off on Fridays (at least during happy hour)! They also have a nice selection of beers. Their flights are neat in that they offer 6 options instead of the more typical 4, so you can try everything you want to try. We had the nachos, poutine, and several beers. The poutine was a bit salty but the nachos were excellent, definitely get the beer cheese sauce as an add-on. I also got to try a special dragonfruit kolsch they had on tap, which was really mild and easy drinking as well. I'll definitely be back when I'm in Banff again!

The…read morerestaurant is kind of tucked away in a mall, but there are signs advertising it on the main street. It was a particularly cold and windy day so some Korean soup sounded amazing. We came around 3PM so it wasn't too busy. The place looks a little dated and seems like it used to be a different type of restaurant but that doesn't really matter to me. The food is good which is the most important part. Then banchan came first and there weren't as many dishes as I'm usually used to. My favorite banchan is definitely fishcakes and they were missed here. The kimchi was good though and so was everything else. I ordered the Sokkoritang or Oxtail Soup. The broth was super flavorful and milky while the oxtail was super tender. This was so comforting after being in the cold for a few hours. I could sip on the broth all day. It wasn't overly salty, in fact it was under salted but they provide salt for you to salt the dish to your liking. My girlfriend got the Galbitang or Short Rib Soup and she seemed to really enjoy it. The short ribs were cooked well and came off the bones easily. The broth was nice and beefy. Service was good. I can definitely recommend Seoul Country.
