J	J Park on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We were celebrating our 5 year anniversary and craving steak. Recommended by the concierge for dinner but weren’t sure what to expect. However, we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of food and the service. Food: The bone in ribeye was HEAVENLY. It was massive and so tender! The next time we visit, we would probably order two of those. My husband and I agreed the steaks here are far better than anything we had in Calgary, cooked to perfection. Brussels sprouts with salted caramel was so shockingly good but it’s sad you only get maybe 7 pieces? Onion rings were not fresh - wouldn’t order them. Asparagus risotto was okay but not mind blowing. The waiters Chin and Cody (not sure if I remember the name correctly- he was assisting Chin since it was Chin’s training period) were so lovely and attentive. Cody recommended the brussels sprouts and that was my fav. Aaron, the manager, also was attentive and friendly. One thing I didn’t enjoy here: The starter bread (sourdough?) with whipped butter was quite disappointing; it was hard, maybe stale? Or gluten free? I took a bite and the rest was a hard pass. The whipped butter couldn’t even save that. Please note that some people still LOVE gluten. Overall, we will definitely return for more of their amazing steaks. The dinner at Fairview may be the reason why we stay at the Chateau Lake Louise.
J	Joey C on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful view of the mountains here in this restaurant. The service was really good and the they really try to be an upscale restaurant. Frette napkins and quality flatware. Had a really nice cocktail that was nice and refreshing. It was recommended by the server. They had bread for starters. The presentation of the dishes was ok. The plate was big and the servings were small so it kind of made it look funny. The bone marrow was not what I expected and I probably wouldn't order it again. There was so much hype on it, I was disappointed. The Arctic char was delicious. It was well cooked and seasoned. Just the presentation of the dish was a fail for me. The kids enjoyed their chicken fingers and fries. Wife found her salad interesting. It was crisp and fresh and not overly dressed. It was a nice dinner with quite a view.
H	Harry Zheng on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is the lounge inside Fairmont Chateau Louise. Next door there is a Fairview Bar and Restaurant. You are paying for the view. Make a reservation to avoid the wait. The reservation is a must for afternoon tea. Or show up early when the place is open for lunch in order to score a window seating. The lounge is open at 11 and the bar and restaurant next door at 12 noon. The food is okay but not as amazing as the view.
E	Elly Zhang on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful view and friendly hostess & server. That is why I gave 2 stars. The food is not that good.(far away from Fairmont brand). Waiting time is too long. My reservation is at 12:30. After lunch it’s 2:30.?
S	Sophia Campbell on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Travelled to Lake Louise today and dropped into the Fairview for lunch as a must do. Was bitterly disappointed with the Lake View Lounge. We all had burgers (AAA Angus and Buttermilk Chicken) with french fries. I have never had such a disappointing burger and fries. The Brioche buns were hard and stale (we have these often and even make our own) and the whole burger was dry and tasteless. The fries were limp and cold from plating. We all like burgers, but these were woeful and not cheap. Very disappointed and looks can be deceiving....not to be repeated
X	Xena Wang on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I have to write this review in two parts - one for afternoon tea and one for dinner. Afternoon tea was absolutely extraordinary. Definitely not cheap (65$ for vegan menu, 70$ for regular menu), but definitely worth it. I loved that they had a separate vegan menu with scones and spreads, finger sandwiches, and desserts. My favorite was the carrot cupcake! The experience was so decadent and satisfying. 5 stars for the afternoon tea. Dinner was a little underwhelming. There were very few vegan options - 1 salad and 2 side dishes (local mushrooms and asparagus risotto). These options were all tasty but overpriced and not very filling. 3 stars for the dinner. Service was friendly and the atmosphere was unparalleled.
K	K Sangha on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We ordered the beef burger 5/10 and chicken sandwich 10/10 to share between two of us. The beef burger was average, nothing stood out, it was a tad bit cold. The chicken sandwich was very good, chicken was well cooked without it being oily at all, super crispy and was pretty spicy with the jalapeño’s, would def get that again. The service was really great!
Y	Yusi Liu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The view is the everything, can’t beat it. The food is average; below my expectation given the price. Nothing really stands out but not much to complain about. My biggest thing is that there are not a lot choices; during our second day of a 3-day stay, we basically tried every item on the menu and don’t have anything else to pick. If have to say something, pasta and rice dishes tend to be tastier than burgers. The tomato soup is very plain.
