Description:
This expansive dining room is one of the hotel's largest, most popular venues. It's usually busy throughout the day, but it makes the most of its space by offering both a la carte and buffet dining. In the evenings, the menu focuses on Canadian fare, especially steaks and seafood. Appetizers include oyster mushroom chowder and Dungeness crab cakes; rotisserie options feature duck and chicken, succulent when roasted on a spit. Alberta beef is offered in several different cuts and comes with rich, accompanying sauces, and you'll also find pork chops and local trout on the menu. Reservations are a smart idea, especially if your time in Banff is limited. |

Sporting contemporary mountain ambience with leather chairs, a stone fireplace, abundant wood, and a big patio with views of the Bow River Valley, Muk-a-Muk (a Native American word for feast), presents an intriguing menu of regionally influenced dishes that utilize the best produce available.

Main course selections have included dark ale braised bison short ribs with wild blueberries and AAA Alberta steak with chipotle-basil-roasted garlic butter. Deliciously different. |

Description:
Attractive, contemporary-rustic décor is the ideal counterpart to Bison Mountain Bistro's fabulous Canadian cuisine. The bison burger, topped with Saskatoon berry chutney, comté and house-made smoked tomato ketchup, is scrumptious. Interesting wood-fired pizzas are a worthy choice – try one with local Valbella bacon, tomatoes, arugula and gouda. Raclette, a mountain staple, is made here with three cheeses and accompanied by smoked bison, bündnerfleisch, cornichons, baby potatoes and steamed veggies. At brunch, the Benedicts (all served on a cheese-herb biscuit) are awesome – for something more unusual, opt for the duck confit and chèvre version. The lounge is popular for pre- and post-dinner drinks, and don't miss the General Store, stocked with fine cheeses, house-made condiments and great prepared meals. |
