Reviews for Elita Restaurant in Canmore, AB
We went here since it had a mix of cuisines. Overall, the staff and service is good. The food is made fresh and good quality... assortments. All their mains were great. I would suggest for the quesadilla to make it crispier. Read more
We had such a great experience here! If you enjoy travelling and dishes from different cultures, this restaurant will be great... for you! The menu offers a variety of dishes from different parts of the world, so for someone like me who loves tryingdifferent types of food this was a nice little piece of Heaven! ???? The food was absolutely amazing! Soooo much flavour inevery single bite of every dish and such great presentation and portion size too! We started with an appetizer, the RivieraMussels in white wine sauce, then my boyfriend chose for his dinner the (Italian) Milano Mediterranean Fantasy Chicken dish, soI chose a different style of cuisine, Asian, and had the Magic Wok of Tibet (vegan). I tried all 3 dishes, and they all tasteddelicious! Then for dessert we enjoyed a most flavourful cup of chocolate ice cream with fresh raspberries - as you may see fromthe pictures, this simple ice cream dessert was taking ice cream to the next level! Even my boyfriend who can be quite a pickyeater said this was the best meal he has had in a long time ???????? For drinks we ordered a chai and a grasshopper beer, and wealso had Bailey?s shots for after dinner, nothing fancy but always good ????. We were soooo full by the end, we probably shouldhave packed some of it for later, but it all tasted so good we couldn?t stop eating it ???????? The service was warm, promptand very respectful and thoughtful in regards to our preferences with covid even if restrictions had been lifted. The ownerVictor served us as we went for dinner pretty late just before close time and he was the only one left there. We asked him moreabout himself and his story and we enjoyed some of his stories from his many travels cooking in some great places, you can tellhe has a passion for different cultures and their cuisines which shows in his creative and diverse menu selection as well. Ifound the interior design to be quaint and unique as well, which I personally liked, made me feel as i Read more
Went based on good ratings from various sources. Don't know how they have such a good rating... I ordered a Paella, which is... supposed to be a classic saffron-scented rice dish with a signature crispy bottom crust. The chef obviously didn't get thatmemo. My wife's order was a smoked salmon bearnaise, very shy on bearnaise sauce. See pics. Read more
I went with my family on Christmas and the chef was super friendly and welcoming! We had a lot of food and all of them were... delicious and unique. Would definitely come again ???? Read more
Food was good and price is reasonable. However, the service and hospitality were awesome. Restaurant is small size, neat and... clean. Washroom is clean but access is not good. There are some items for sale. Dedicated parking spots for the restaurantcustomers. We felt like home in this restaurant. Highly recommend others to try their foods. Read more
Great service at this wonderfully run family business! The owner and the rest of the family made us feel cozy warm inside when... it was a bone chilling -35 outside! Such unique and intricate designs around the restaurant- a cool touch was the jewelry anddifferent cultural trinkets decorating the room that?s actually for sale too! The food itself was ok- the moussaka could usemore eggplant instead of a potatoe overload. I?d recommend the Venice Chicken Asparagus as we found it to be the most flavorful.The Taste of Madras appetizer was also a great recommendation made by the staff. Thanks for a great Christmas dinner! Read more
Service was wonderful but food was just decent. Muscles and steak were little overcooked but the sauce was delicious. The... risotto was good though. The muscles come with a cream sauce that didn't really taste like a wine sauce and garlic bread wasapparently not included. They have a variety of cuisines from pierogies to schnitzel to steak and risotto. I personally find ita bit expensive for the quality of food. Read more
