   Dinner was excellent, had bison and elk. Spinach sa Lad was fresh and nice dressing. Desserts were good although they had run out of gingerbread.

   Waiter. Was very nice, but I would say needs more training. Did not bring outside plates with the appetizers, and the main meal had shrimp, and had nowhere to put the tails. Just needs some direction. We did quite a while to order drinks and the restaurant was half empty.

   Very nice layout, wonderful bison and very kind staff. They also have a good selection of craft beers and cocktails.

   The food was great and our server was very nice, however we waited over 45 mins for our food and there was literally nobody else in the restaurant and the music was ONLY Taylor Swift which was not enjoyable.

   We booked on Open table and it said there were only high tables left. When we arrived the restaurant was completely empty. The waitress acted like it was going to be packed with reservations. We asked for a low table due to having a small child and also myself having a full leg cast. She said it “should be” fine to sit in the lounge. She disappeared for quite some time and almost 20 min later we could finally see her to ask if our little one could possibly have some crayons to color on the children’s colouring sheet. (Hands sheet, but no crayons….!?) Once again…. Might I remind you, it’s DEAD in there at the time. I would expect this of its extremely busy! 2 hours later the restaurant had TWO tables of people. Not sure why we had to sit way over in the lounge!? Despite the restaurant being dead, the service was sub par. Waited forever to order drinks, then refills. The starter order was wrong and nothing was done to rectify it, just “oh sorry” thought you said….. (Didn’t offer to bring out the missing item). Not even going to ask at this point. Just want to eat and leave. So despite the food being pretty good, the lack of service and being treated like we couldn’t sit with the general population, I don’t think we will be back. May I also suggest that the children’s menu. include a small desert such a scoop of ice cream. I haven’t seen many places that don’t have a child’s desert included with the meal.

   Understandably Banff is suffering from a shortage of service industry workers and the ones who do work there are friendly and hard working. We appreciated the polite and prompt service from the staff. Good beer selection and nice ambiance, with gorgeous decorations.

   Really lovely dining option, for being in a hotel lobby. Our table of four enjoyed the spinach salad and spinach artichoke dip the most.

    A great place to eat if you are staying at the BML, both supper and breakfast were excellent and saved the fuss of heading into Banff central with all the parking hassles and traffic.

    Service was fantastic. We liked the vibe. Drinks were good. My bison short rib was mediocre and absolutely not worth the $48 price tag. I thought the food overall was overpriced and underwhelming. Not what I would expect for a CRMR restaurant.

    Not sure what happened at The Buffalo Mountain Lodge. I've been frequently regularly as a guest for over 20 years and never again. The food was sub par and the room was awful. The renovations and terrible service have ruined the atmosphere. Oh well, it was a great run.

    Interesting menu though we specifically wanted the Bison Short Ribs but they were out. What we did have was excellent and cooked as we asked. We were surprised at the limited wine selection and when we pointed it out were brought a proper wine list which had a good variety, just thought it was odd we had to ask. Gourmet package is excellent value, would definitely go back.

    We took my son and girlfriend out for breakfast. The food was really good! The service was excellent, my omelette came like warm and I ask if it could be heated up but they brought me a new one. Everyone else’s food was great! As far as ambience, I loved the old traditional furniture and beautiful rock fireplace that graced the room before so that was, to me, not an improvement. Also a large screen TV was on the entire time during our breakfast and competing with music that is not considered dining music.

    Service was very slow and disorganized. At least two of the servers, including ours, forgot about things we ordered, forgot about our drinks. They just seemed to not know what was going on even though there were maybe 6-8 tables at a given time and 4 servers. Very disappointing. Food was fine, nothing to write home about. Probably wouldn’t dine here again. Would rather fight for parking in downtown Banff for a better meal with better service.

    We enjoyed our evening at The Prow, although I would have preferred a more intimate setting. The tables are quite close together and with the high ceilings, it lacked a bit in ambiance. However, the food was outstanding and the portions generous. It would have been nice to have more options for smaller portions though. Overall an enjoyable evening out.

    The food and service were very good. The restaurant has no noise-deadening features at all, and unfortunately we were seated near a large and loud tour group. In addition to not being able to hear each other talk, this significantly slowed service, although the only server there was both helpful and nice.

    The Prow was recommended to us and it didn't disappoint. The food was excellent and very reasonably priced. Despite staff shortages, the dishes were served in good time and the staff were friendly and courteous. Special mention to Christine who dealt with a group of difficult customers in a very professional manner. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to The Prow and would definitely recommend.to anyone visiting the area.
