Reviews for The Bison Restaurant in Banff, AB
Delicious anniversary meal! My husband got the bison ribeye (cooked perfectly!), I got the bison burger with warm potato salad... (so juicy and tender, and the potato salad was AMAZING!), and we shared the seared scallop appetizer (we thought the portion wasa little small, but probably because we could have eaten about 5 more, it was that good!). The staff was friendly and checked onus multiple times during our meal. They also were able to seat us sooner than our original reservation time, which was nicesince we were flying out early the next morning! Awesome meal and exceptional service! Read more
You know the thing about once of a life time. Yes. Eat bison meat just like that. We order the 30 some oz package. Cannot... finish it. Just too much. Well, we tried. And is good. BTW, I want to say their service is excellent. The young lady was asuch nice lady. Read more
So good! Glad we managed to snag an online reservation at 5:45pm on a Thursday a few days beforehand. Nick helped us and gave us... great recs. We were 2 ppl, we got the black cod (light and refreshing), the bison rib-eye medium rare (not as heavy as beef),the eggplant couscous (so good!), and the toffee dessert (highly recommend). Great date night :) Read more
Great service. Nice atmosphere. Fantastic Smoked Old Fashioned. Unfortunately I can only give 3 stars as the food we tried was... OK but not great for the price. We tried the Burrata, Scallop, Bison Ragu + Gnocchi, Rack of Lamb. The Bison Ragu + Gnocchiwere the best of the dishes we ordered but felt overly salted. The grilled vegetables on the lamb were particularly good. Read more
For those who want to try the actual BISON meat, this is the best place to dine and savour it! Non red meat lovers, don’t... forget to order their perfectly crisp slice of bread to enjoy with the sauce their other dishes may come with! Not forget theirlevel 2 restaurant comes with outdoor dining to enjoy during spring and view of the stunning surrounding mountains in Banff! Read more
It was one of the best restaurants in Banff, almost full when we arrived. When they knew we were only here for one night, got us... a seat at the bar. The handsome guy at the bar patiently introduces us the most popular appetizers and special set: char-grilledbison. The bison cooked in a very special way before roasted, which gives the crispy outside and juicy, tender inside, tasty! Read more
Let me start by saying I'd give this place 6 stars if I could. They entirely set a new baseline for customer service for us last... night. My partner has. Some dietary restrictions so I had called weeks in advance. They followed up the call three days beforethe night of dining. And when we arrived, the host and the server were both made aware of the restrictions. They went way out oftheir way to make her night extremely special. They server was extremely attentive and humerous without being overbearing. Thefood... Well, we've been here before and I'd dare say this may be the best steak experience I've had this year. Incredibleflavor, great temperature of food upon delivery and fabulous presentation. The ambience of the place is extremely lively. Allaround, top marks across the board. Don't miss an opportunity to visit The Bison. Read more
My fiance and I came here after we got engaged and it was amazing! The staff was so wonderful in congratulating us and making... the evening special. We sampled the taste for adventure menu which features some of their regular menu items. These were sodelicious! Cocktails had lots of variety to choose from and each one we tried was phenomenal! Definitely a must see/try if youare looking for a great spot in Banff! Read more
