Reviews for Coyote's Bistro on Franklin in Yellowknife, NT
Everyone there was nice and the arctic benedict was good. The place is on the second floor.
Food was good!! Drinks were amazing - especially the liquid dessert!! The staff were top notch and will definitely be going... back during my stay!! A must go to place for sure!! Read more
Had the fish fry (local white fish). Might be the best cooked white fish I?ve ever had. The staff was lovely. Who I assume is... the owner sold us on the dirty Caesar and fish fry with charm, passion & good humour. Does not look like a fine diningestablishment, but do not let that deter you! It was so delicious!! House made teriyaki sauce for the fish was lovely, fish &fries cooked to perfection and the dressing on the fresh salad was yummy. Read more
Located on the second floor of the Royal Canadian Legion building the heart of Yellowknife?s downtown, Coyote does not present a... particulalry compelling curb appeal (the stairway to the second floor restaurant gave us pause), but don?t let that deter you.They purport to be the city?s longest running restaurant; based on our dinner we can see why they have been successful. Inkeeping with everywhere we went in Yellowknife there is a very casual vibe. There are a lot of well spaced tables in a largeroom, two pool tables and a large bar area. Service was prompt and friendly. We ordered Donair Egg Rolls as an appy (because,that just had to happen), and a Philly Cheesesteak and a Prime Rib Burger (the burger on the recommendation of our server) asmains. The Donair Egg Rolls were exactly what you?d expect, with the bonus being the classic, Western Canadian-style donairsauce on the side. This made one of us very happy as he revelled in this blast from the past! The Philly Cheesesteak was, well,not really a Philly Cheesesteak. Effectively a steak bits, veggies and cheese hash on bread, it was a generous portion but justOK. The Prime Rib Burger, on the other hand, was fantastic. Thick, juicy, char broiled and flame kissed to perfection, with abrioche bun that held up until tge last delicious bite. We highly recommend that burger. Meal (with three Strongbow ciders)came to $114.47 with tax & 20% tip. Recommended. Read more
Update: My friend was here recently to see if the owner had in fact changed things, they hadn?t. The response below is a lie,... highly suggest taking your business elsewhere. The portions of the potatoes skins was laughably small for $16, see photo. Ownerwas very uncomfortable to be around and quite rude. Would not recommend. Read more
Customer service here is unmatched. The whole staff is welcoming, friendly and pleasant. Ed welcomed us in with open arms good... laughs and great food. If you're in Yellowknife and don't stop in to see Ed and his Staff you're missing out Read more
Don't miss the Northern Fish Fry if you like your fish. They informed it's fresh catch they source locally, served with fries... and salad. The fish did taste good and was cooked beautifully. The sauces also had a distinct touch. The guy who served us wassuper fun. The place also serves liquor, has a pool table and games for kids. Great dining experience ?? Read more
A very chill place to eat and enjoy yourself. Service always great. Gave 4/5 for atmosphere just cause there has to be room for... improvement somewhere and service and food are top notch. Read more
