Excellent service by Eric. I ordered the beef medium rare and the food was awesome! We also ordered a bottle of wine. Split the Caesar salad and split the dessert. Would recommend especially after Nightrise. read more

Some of the kindest most helpful servers I've encountered. And the food and cocktails were great.

The restaurant was perfect for family lunch because of the epic mountain views and delicious lunch. We enjoyed the smooth gondola ride to the top of the mountain. The boardwalk along the ridge offers easy terrain for epic views. There are a couple restaurants at the top, a gift shop, and an interactive museum. Sky Bistro was the most appealing lunch option. My wife and I shared a berry salad with Canadian prawns and ocean to sky seafood chowder. My kids a enjoyed the pasta and cheese. The chowder was fresh with medium-thick soup. Fresh berries and crisp green mixed with a minimal dressing was a lift, delicious treat. I highly recommend this restaurant to family and friends for a memorable lunch. read more

Good view and food presentation is good for Instagram. However, the actual texture and flavour was the worst meal we've had on our trip... Chowder: very clumpy, same texture as when you open a can of soup Beef: dry - worst than the pork my mom uses to make her soup. Vegetables while look to be roasted were actually quite raw. Sable fish: texture was good, but the accompanying veggie just overpowered and didn't enhance the fish itself. Just expect that you're paying for the view and the food is just a side. read more

A three course menu with a gondola trip included that takes you to a stunning view makes an unforgettable experience. Drinks are not included, aside complimentary water. The attached photo is of the clam chowder with fish eggs. The chowder was creamy and rich with flavor making it one of my favorite clam chowders that I have had in the country. There were enough mussels giving it additional texture. As a starting dish, I do recommend. It can be fulfilling making it a bit difficult to power through the main course, but the quality of all the meats provided in the main course options makes it all the easier to devour. Consider the hour of reservation you choose. We wanted to experience the sunset but it back lashed on our party. Because all guests want a view of the Rocky Mountains curtains are rarely dropped. As the sun was setting, the glare made direct contact making the experience less enjoyable. On another note, as I was in the restroom two caucasian ladies entered and made comments about the restroom smell and compared it to Mexico. They continued to make jokes amongst themselves not being fully aware that there was someone else present in the restroom. When I left the stall they suddenly became stiff. As a Hispanic woman with a parent that was born in Mexico, it was disheartening to have experienced. Overall, that didn't stop me from enjoying my experience and I would recommend the establishment food and services to anyone. Regarding the individual's who help themselves to this experience as well, we have no control of. read more

We had a wonderful time here. We thoroughly enjoyed the duck, beef tartare and salmon gravlax starters as well as the squash & fennel salad and desserts of chocolate torte with vanilla ice cream. The espresso came to the table in a preheated cup and saucer--a nice touch and ensured our espresso came to us hot. Our wait servers, Hugo and Sashi, were wonderful. They worked as a team--Hugo was assigned to our table and Sashi brought our food out to us. They were attentive yet not intrusive. Highly recommend coming here! The hostess, Kayla, was wonderful. We had no reservations and called in from the Banff Gondola. She arranged near-window seats for us. Kayla, thank you! read more

This place has a wonderful view of Banff sitting up high on Sulphur mountain. I was able to get a great window seat without reservation. As expected prices for food are alittle higher than normal due to the location. I ordered the Seafood Chowder and some french fries. The seafood chowder was pretty good and had healthy portions of salmon, roe, mussels and prawns. The french fries were a bit underwhelming and just seemed like Ore Ida bag fries literally instead of fresh cut. I'd go again if I felt like hiking up mount Sulphur instead of taking the Gondola. read more

Sky Bistro has one of the best views I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing during a meal. The food definitely matched up, but would have loved more flavours in the Beef dish. The paired salad was quite poor. The Tuna appetizer was amazing, as was the Arctic char entree. If this is within your budget on your next Banff trip it is definitely worth it. Pro tip: make a reservation that coincides with the sunset if possible! read more

Incredible. Great views, outstanding food. Extremely kind and friendly staff. Would go back everyday!

Really overpriced food that did not wow me but I get it, I'm paying for the view. But at least make the food good!! The summer greens salad was just pathetic. Most pathetic salad I've ever had.... my 4 year old nephew can probably make a better salad. It was just so boring to look at and eat. There were zero garnishes on the salad, seemed like they just tossed a bunch of green leaves onto the plate and drizzled it with dressing. To make it worse, some of the greens were yellow and wilted. If you're going to have greens as the only ingredient in the dish, at least make it fresh AF.... it was just so sad The cauliflower fritters came with like 4.5 pieces.... it was nothing special and I will probably never understand the logic of frying vegetables. My friend had the risotto and she did not enjoy it either as it was tasteless and a bit raw. My bison was so-so... It's okay, I came for the view... even though the day I came it was cloudy and cold AF.. dammit! read more

Echoing the sentiments of others, 5-star views, and 3-star food. I won't go into excessive detail but the trek up to Sky Bistro is well worth it for the views alone. Come for a cocktail and get high... on the height! Beautiful picturesque mountain views from the warmth of a fancy, romantic vantage point at the top of the world! Hello Ladies ;) Why was the food no bueno? Well here's the thing, it's not that it wasn't good, it was perfectly OK, but it wasn't great. Higher prices (which makes sense) but small portions. Our server raved about the Buffalo? Bison? Steak and the taste was pretty good, cooked ok but the size was super sad. I was ravenous so thank goodness a dining colleague ordered the same and didn't finish her because I shamelessly finished hers off like we were stranded on a deserted island. My other gripe was with the cocktails. I always rate a place by their old-fashioned and theirs was, hard to get down, too much alcohol, not balanced and actually a chore to down. Switching to wine all was made better! The views and the experience definitely make up for any misgivings I had with the food, and I'd come here again on my next visit... maybe just for a wine and appy! BANFF! Eatcrest OUT! read more

Sky Bistro - Canadian (New) Near Me - Banff, Alberta

Oh, how I wanted to love Sky Bistro. The incredible views, the warmth after a grueling 3.5 hour icy hike up Sulphur Mountain, but I just found my experience kind of meh when it came to the food. So I have to echo my friend Joi's statement of "5-star views. 3-star food." For an average of 4 stars. So first the good--the view! You're at the top of Sulphur Mountain. Banff National Park is all around you! It's floor to ceiling windows and you can sit and admire the beauty while in the comfort of the warm restaurant. The hosts/hostesses were also stellar and really helped us get settled, store our hiking gear in their big closets, etc. And they were very welcoming to our group, if a little scatterbrained. Also, wine! And drinks! Get a big ol' class and nestle up to the window and enjoy the view with a tasty glass of vino. Now, doesn't that sound lovely? Now the not so good--food service was a little slow and my order was fairly disappointing. I was freezing after the hike so I wanted warm things. I ordered the squash soup and the brie appetizer. The soup, now the soup was actually pretty ok. Not the best soup I've ever had but it sure did hit the spot. But the brie? Oh, that wasn't great. The brie comes wrapped in what I believe they hope is a bread bowl. But in getting the brie to the right temperature to be melty and warm, the bread overbakes. And it's not a crunchy kind of crusty bread that would work in this scenario. No, the whole bowl is tough. I couldn't even cut pieces off with my knife, and forget about ripping it with your hands. It's like a brick. In the end, I just gave up and dug the brie out with my fork and ate it with the accompaniments (honey, fruit, nuts etc) alone. I thought maybe it was just mine that came out that way but others in my group who had ordered it also reported the same. Skip that dish if you come in and order apps. So take a gondola up, or do the hike and come in to warm up. The experience of being here at the top of the world is 100% worth it. But just stick with the beverages. Get a glass of wine or a cocktail and take in the beauty around you. Eat back in town. read more

As all the reviews say, you're most likely paying for the views. We had a 8:15pm reservation- it was the earliest we could get day-of (made the reservation at like 2pm that day) on a Thursday. Our time to go up the Banff Gondola was 7:30pm, but they let us up early around 6:40pm, so we got to the restaurant early and they seated us without a problem. Drinks were good. They gave us 3 pieces of untoasted bread before our entrees... we ordered the watermelon salad, the chicken, and the salmon & mussels (except we switched it out for shrimp). We originally wanted pork belly but they ran out. We asked for grilled chicken on the salad and it was extremely dry. The lemon thyme chicken was pretty good, very moist. The salmon was smaller than I had expected. The portion sizes were relatively small, my brother was still hungry after finishing his meal. Service was relatively good, our waitress was sweet and it was somewhat busy (there were still open tables) so we had trouble grabbing her attention sometimes. read more

Sky Bistro was a great experience. The views are immaculate, and the food and drink options match. We had a reservation for lunch and although we arrived 25 minutes early, we were pleasantly greeted and promptly seated. The hosts hung our jackets and seated us at our table, in which we were promptly greeted by our server, Luke. Luke was great throughout our whole experience, we had just gotten engaged and he was quick to offer congratulations and complimentary prosecco (both were greatly appreciated). We would recommend Sky Bistro to any mountain lover. read more

The view cannot be beat, the prices and quantity of the food leaves something to be desired but I realize that is how these type of "upscale" restaurants usually are. It's more about the experience and I get that. I would advise looking at the menu and deciding what you want before hand if you're going to go with the sky package which includes the gondola ride, appetizer and entree. Depending on what day you go it might not be worth it to go with the package and especially if you're an Alberta resident (as there is an AB resident discount on the gondola but not the sky package itself) even getting the most expensive stuff on the menu still seemed like it was $30 more that if I just paid for the meal at the time rather than before hand. Cost of gondola fluctuates day and time too so check all those things out if you're on a budget. read more

When I made the reservation a month ago, I have requested it's for our 1st year wedding anniversary(as they asked you on the website booking). The whole time was very disappointed, they did nothing for our special occasion, no dessert offering, not even mention if they could just give us the table by the window, it cost literally NOTHING if they could offer us. Food - starter was decent, the main course was very disappointed, I would rather order more starter than main course honestly. We paid $1172 after tax/tip for the whole menu, but we got nothing for our special occasion for being here! I don't recommend to anyone to spend this amount of money but the service is NOT ALIGNED. read more

If you're looking for a date night in Banff, look no further. If I may be so bold, let me be your cruise director: Go up the gondola, enjoy the views and deliciousness of sky bistro, check out the piano bar at the Rim Rock then you enjoy a dip in the hot springs under the stars. Of this all-magical date you're about to enjoy, the best bit is definitely dining at Sky Bistro. We were lucky enough to get a window seat at Sky. It took us forever to order, because we were obsessively taking pictures of the sun setting over the rockies. Sorry not sorry. When we finally ordered, I had the very-Canadian pea soup followed by the seafood medley. I highly recommend both, salty warmth followed by lobster, mussels and perfectly seared scallops. Incredible. Pair it with a cocktail and some of their Canadian wine options, and you've got yourself a perfect meal. read more

I cannot say enough what a class act this restaurant is...my belly was full, my heart was warm and winter wonderland was all around us!

Sky Bistro provided one of the most memorable experiences for my husband and I during our stay in Banff. We had considered visiting in the evening for a romantic sunset dinner but ended up enjoying a more casual lunch instead. Thankfully, the ambience still delivered on the "wow factor", even at an earlier hour. We stepped into the gorgeous dining room around 1pm on a Friday without any line or wait to be seated. No lunch reservations necessary! Everyone else seemed to be in the more family-friendly cafe across the floor, keeping the Bistro more quiet and intimate... score! You typically expect a place with stunning views to compromise on service and menu items, but that's not the case here. The ingredients are regionally-sourced and the options are plentiful. Perhaps best of all, it's not overpriced. My husband and I shared the Bison Burger with the Poutine while soaking up a breathtaking view of the Rockies. So Canadian, eh? We savored each bite of both items and would love to come back and try more! read more

We bought the gondola ride and dinner package deal, so we had a smaller menu to choose from for our appetizers and entrees. We didn't miss the larger menu! Would've given this 5 stars, but the pork belly entree was a miss for us -- not seasoned enough, needing more salt and something acidic to complement the fatty meat. Otherwise, the following plates are 100% worth ordering: - bison tartare - delicate and delicious - watermelon salad - sounds boring but SO refreshing - bison tenderloin - the sides to this entree were just as delicious as the meat - strawberry shortcake - I will be dreaming of this for months to come Splurge a little extra for this delicious meal and epic views! read more

We just took a gamble on our trip to Banff to ride the gondola and eat at Sky Bistro. One of the best travel decisions we've ever made. Everything at the top of Sulfur Mountain is enjoyable, entertaining, and informative. Sky Bistro's menu is compact, creative, and diverse, from appetizers through desserts. We found it hard to make a decision, because every item looked wonderful. The chowder appetizer was huge, and full of seafood...fantastic flavor. Halibut cheek was tender and accompanied by two large shrimp. Steak was beautifully done with incredible garnishing, and the pork entre was perfect. At less than $200USD, this was the best money we've ever spent on a meal experience. read more

Situated on top of Sulphur Mountain, this restaurant provides gorgeous, breathtaking panoramic views of the Canadian Rockies, all while serving up amazing food that's locally sourced. The menu is a bit pricey, but unlike other places where you're paying for the view, the quality of the food almost justifies the pricing. You can save yourself a good amount of money if you book the Sky Experience. This gets you the gondola experience and a 2 course meal at the restaurant. Make sure you ask to get seated next to the window for the best possible views. Now, onto the food. Items ordered were the P.E.I. steamed mussels, charcuterie, lobster roll and the Alberta beef short rib. I really wanted the steak sandwich because Alberta beef is just unreal in terms of quality and flavor, but they were sold out so I had to settle for the short rib. While we were waiting for our food, they brought us some bread. Dipping sauces were TRUFFLE butter and olive oil & balsamic. That truffle butter was so good we requested more of it and slathered it all over our entrees. A bite sized sample crostini was also provided. The mussels came in a giant metal pot. Although there weren't many, they had awesome flavor and lots of juices. The pot also included locally-made chorizo, yellow onion, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, celery, toasted baguette. Everything was in perfect harmony and I recommend using the mussel shell as a spoon to scoop up the broth with each mussel. The mussels were meaty without being chewy and rubbery. I was a bit disappointed with the charcuterie. It had locally-made sausage, Valbella cured meat, cheese mustard, pickles, dried and candied figs, cranberries and apricots. All the meats were delicious, but I wanted more of them. The prosciutto was hands down the best thing on the plate. I love the brie cheese and the mustard seeds; both paired really well with the fattiness of the prosciutto. The other cheeses and meats were good, but pale in comparison to the brie and prosciutto. The lobster roll was huge. They don't skimp out on the amount of lobster used either. The roll is already quite large, and there are chunks of lobster bursting out of it. It's mixed with brown butter aioli, butter lettuce, steamed baby potato and scallions. Add the truffle butter from the bread and it just takes this dish to another level. The lobster is of the cold water Atlantic variety and cooked perfectly. Alberta beef short ribs were amazing. They come on a bed of buttermilk mashed potatoes and topped with a Merlot demi-glace. Fried leek and caramelized root vegetables accompany the dish. The ribs were literally fall off the bone tender. Stick a fork into the meat and it flakes off with absolutely no effort. The meat was cooked to a medium rare and perfectly tender. As you get closer to the bone, the color of the meat is a nice pink and melts in your mouth. There was hardly any fat on the ribs either, so all you have is just mouthfuls of succulent, high quality beef. The mashed potatoes were airy and creamy, and I wasn't too enamored with the vegetables and fried leek because the ribs stole the show and I didn't want any other flavors to compete with the beef. Everything about this place was great. The service was wonderful and friendly. The decor is modern and classy. There are floor to ceiling windows so no matter where you sit, you'll get a fantastic view of the mountains. read more

Really great restaurant and service. I'll admit, we were not the easiest customers because I really wanted to sit by a window and insisted upon waiting until we could. The hostesses were very gracious, though probably annoyed. (Sorry! & thank you) We did end up sitting by a window. The food was incredible! I loved the beet salad with the torched cheese, wow!

Butternut squash soup and winter salad after walking to the peak of sulphur mountain. Friendly service and a beautiful view of the mountains. Good variety on the menu and price wise works out about the same as the fixed price lunch package at the cafe next door. Food was a bit slow coming out and it was worth the wait. Butternut squash soup was creamy and tasty although the cornbread muffin was dry and not so good. Salad was fresh and tasty with a perfectly cooked chicken breast.

Gorgeous views of the Canadian Rockies with a menu that celebrates food sourced right in Canada! I went May 1st, the first day it opened after the winter season. And oh boy was it a treat! First, to come here, make sure to make reservations so you can enjoy the food from their window seats where you sit right on the edge of the restaurant and no tables are obstructing your view. Poor planning on our end, and we didn't get that, but because of their floor to high ceiling windows we sat the row after and it was still good!! I'm happy we made the choice to go anyway. So after the gondola ride and a bit of hiking around, we go to enjoy this meal before the last gondola ride down. 5 stars. Roast Tomato Gin Soup - Sweet field tomato, okanagan gin, corn fritters. I was happy to see that this was easily an entree size portion. Wow, one of the best tomato soups I've had. It was chunky, savory, and not too sweet. It really tasted fresh to me. 4 stars - Charcuterie platter. The cheeses were great! A smoky cheddar, oka, and a jack cheese. The smoky cheese was the best of the three. This one also came with prosciutto, sausage, crackers, pickles, dried apricots, and dried figs. 5 stars - Okanagan Peach Cobbler. Caramelized peaches, lavender pastry crust, vanilla bean ice cream. This was very very good! The peaches were well roasted inside the cobbler and I especially like the crunch topping. Warm comforting dessert for a snowy day! 5 stars - Brioche Bread Pudding. Maple creme anglaise, fresh berries, basil, unsweetened whip cream, Quebec maple syrup, B.C. berries. This one is another good dessert. The presentation alone is creative. Then you dive in with a fork and enjoy!! Not too sweet and it isn't drowning in sauce. Sweet goodness. Service was also excellent. This is fine dining at a high elevation with vast views of the Canadian Rockies. I mean, what more could you ask for?? read more

When you talk about once in a lifetime experience - this is it! You have to ride the gondola up the mountain to get there, and when you make your reservation ask for a window seat (though honestly any seat in the place is good). The views are breathtaking, and the food was good (not the best, but good). Coming from Los Angeles, the prices were not too bad and definitely worth it for the view and experience. You get a yummy little amuse bouche at the beginning of the meal, plus some soft bread with truffle butter (who doesn't love truffle butter?!) My husband and I got the beet carpaccio (OK), scallops (a little on the smaller side), the pork belly (tasty), and the sirloin (great smoky flavor). For dessert we had the cheesecake. Was it the best meal we've ever had? No. But again, you're going for the views. The service was also great (our waiter was struggling a little, but I could tell that he was trying. The service I could tell is usually superb). For those of you on a budget, you could also grab a bite just across the way - there is a small cafe and window seating as well, but I definitely enjoyed and recommend the Sky Bistro. Also, while we were waiting for our gondola down, we saw a HUGE crate of food and wine being brought up the gondola - really cool to thing the restaurant has to get all their food and supplies that way. A tip: there is a Sky Experience available - we did not get this, but our waiter talked about it. I imagine it's a package with the gondola ticket and a meal. I would look into this, might be a good deal. read more

Food and service are equally important for a successful restaurant. No matter how good the food is, if the service is horrible, the food just won't taste as good. Our experience at Sky Bistro immediately went downhill upon entering the restaurant. The hostess, Harshita, was extremely rude and very disrespectful. Not entirely sure why she treated us like this, maybe because my wife didn't hear her say "how you doing" the first time and had to repeat herself?. But upon entering Harshita asked us how many people and we said two. She looked around the empty dining room and told us she can only offer seating on a bar table. After we took the bar table we noticed it was a very wobbly table. Out of all the tables around she offered This one to us. Now, I've worked at restaurants before and hostess know all the tables by heart so I can guarantee you she gave this one to us knowing this issue. Our server came by and we asked her if we can get another table bc of the wobbliness. She goes back to Harshita and when she returned, she said the other tables are all reserved. This is funny because we went on the website and reservations were only for dinner time ? The bartender, Jenny, I guess saw what was happening and came by to rectify the issue. Immediately after Jenny was able to get us a table by the window (and again there were empty tables to our front and back). The reason people come to eat up here is for the amazing view. After going thru all the debacle, I had already lost my appetite so the food was just meh. I do want to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to Jenny and say f*$& you to Harshita. read more
