We had dinner there a few nights ago- hmmm for the prices you would expect the best. We ordered the 3 course meal with wine pairing. The appetizers (both ordered the scallops) were good and dessert ok. But my husband and I both ordered lamb and both were "tough" - we both found it difficult to cut let alone chew.... More

we had lunch here on a day trip to Lake Louise in March, the lake was frozen and there were a few skating ($11.00 for 2 hours), Service was quick, friendly and efficient. The view is one of the best in the world but the cost of the food was better than some of the places in Banff. We had... More

We recently traveled to Lake Louise to ski and dined in the Fairveiw Room. The setting is very formal although we were not alone in being dressed in jeans and sweaters. The wine list is very good though not as good as the Post Hotel's. The sommelier was knowledgeable but was serving all 3 of the restuarants there at the... More

We dined here one evening when it was very quiet with only a few tables booked. We were seated at a table with a wonderful view of the lake and skating rink and sculptures. The staff was very attentive and knew details about the menu. We had the scallops, ahi tuna and foi gras for starters which were all exceptional.... More

Good food but if you are one of those folks who dines out a lot, like me, you will find the pricing (even at this gem of a location) pricey.

Our family of four returned to this restaurant on our last night of our stay at the Chateau - mostly because our daughter had enjoyed it so much last year. I guess this time our expectations were a bit too high. First off - oyster bisque is not really something kids want to dig into - so while it was... More

Incredibly juicy and tender patty inside the buns with other stuff inside will greet you at the Fairview Dining. Comparing to other hotels, they provide reasonable price to you. My recommendation is right at you. You'll never forget a wonderful memory at the atmosphere near one of the most beautiful lakes in the world.
