Mount Fairview Dining Room

Great patio environment and absolutely amazing service and friendly staff!! Parking can be tricky. Food was extremely well prepared (aka Top Chef quality) and quite tasty! Highly recommend!!

We were staying in the hotel (Deer Lodge) so ate several times here. The service was good. The menu is varied and interesting and the wine list extensive. The game (Caribou and Moose) are farmed at a ranch in South Alberta owned by the company who wins the Lodge so at least you know where the meat comes from. The setting is charming and the windows look onto snowy Mt Fairview. Kids menu good, everything my kids tried was great. Breakfast here also excellent.

Mixed, but overall good. The bison steak and elk hash were fantastic. The halibut was cooked perfect but the risotto was bland and boring. A little seasoning would be nice. The saffron broth was not good. Just an oily butter sauce. Too bad because the fish was so good. Breakfast was ok to good. With only one side being rough, I'd go back based on the rest.

Wild caribou medallions served with a yam and leek gratin a red current glaze. The caribou was tender and tasted like a cross between beef and deer.  The gratin was made up of thin slices of yam and leek, and it beautifully buttery and soft.  This is definitely worth a try.  Although, we did feel a wee guilty in eating the caribou since it’s quite an endangered species (due to the logging of the trees that have the lichen that they eat, which is their primary food source). We were full but couldn’t pass up the opportunity to try desserts.  These were really good but just didn’t match the same excellence of the main dishes. I picked the bumble berry pie based on its name – bumble berry.  How could I pass up the chance to try some that has such a cute name?  Bumble berry refers to a melange of berries.  A warm pie with buttery, flaky pastry, and it’s packed full of berries.   It wasn’t too sweet and you could taste the berries.  It was served with a good quality vanilla ice cream. We also go the peanut souffle w salted caramel and raspberry mascarpone.  This was quite good even though I’m not much of a peanut fan.  This t

Attention Day trippers to Lake Louise!!! This is the spot to check out for your breakfast, lunch and dinner options. Very good quality food and well presented. We had a lovely dinner here on our 1st night and an awesome breakfast the next morning. We observed that the nearby Chateau lacked a sit down breakfast option and long waits for tables. The dining room has rustic charm and great service and the adjacent lounge has some good options from the same kitchen. Coming out of Covid, the staff and management are doing a great job with the menu and service.
