2 reviews for Mt. Fairview Restaurant at The Deer Lodge

Our first night in Lake Louise we couldn't get a reservation at our hotel restaurant until after 8:00 pm, so decided to drive around. We entered the Mt. Fairview Restaurant after noticing the carved wooden sign for the lodge on the road to Lake Louise. Since this was our first time in the Canadian Rockies, we weren't sure what to expect. We weren't expecting anything bad, so we weren't "pleasantly surprised," but we were very happy with our experience here. The bread provided at the start was warm, perfectly baked and tasty, as we were to find in all the restaurants in Banff / Lake Louise. I had the best homemade pasta with mushrooms in a beef broth; it was so good I kept wanting to go back throughout the rest of our trip to have it again. I don't even remember what hubby had -- my dish was so dreamy. But whatever he had, and whatever else we both shared, was excellent. Our servers were nice and friendly and, on top of everything, it started snowing while we were there. That was magical: being in a warm, cozy lodge with delicious, hearty food and real snow piling up outside. A great start to hubby's birthday vacation!
Just had a wonderful dinner at a quiet, cozy place in the Canadian Rockies. The Mt. Fairview Restaurant at the Deer Lodge is a great place for a special dinner. A little pricey, but everything in Canada seems to be that way. The food preparation and presentation was excellent. The waitress was not friendly, but the food made up for it. Two meals in this place in as many days. Both excellent. The wait staff at this establishment needs some serious improvement. Nobody smiles here. This appears to be a great place to live and work, but something tells me it's not.
