Lake Louise Railway Station & Restaurant

We came here for dinner after a long day. The host was very welcoming and polite. The server didn't seem to know the menu and had to check with the kitchen what station potatoes were. (Apparently they were out of potatoes so we couldn't try them.) The gluten free options were mainly salads (shared fryer) with no desserts as an option. Pork schnitzel- The seasoning was quite bland, it came with fries and roasted vegetables. Chicken fingers - The chicken fingers were very, very dry, however the fries were good. Salmon - The salmon wasn't too bad however the yam fries were definitely better than the salmon. Overall service was very polite and friendly. However, the food had a distinct cafeteria quality with higher end dining prices. It wasn't bad however I'm not sure I would return.

I have never seen a restaurant so beautifully located! Oh my God! The aesthetics, ambience, surroundings were breathtaking. Restaurant is very classy and the patio gorgeous. The menu was limited but we were busy just feeling amazing sitting there. Surrounded by humongous and wonderful mountains with the lake Lousie crystal clear blue water flowing on one side and backed by a rustic and antique looking Railway station. Only lucky ones get to visit here. There was also a “train restaurant” but it was reserved for only parties. The server was sweet to us. It is definitely one of the most beautiful restaurants of the world.

Excellent food and local beers. They accommodated us even though we came in close to closing. My friends and I all had the bison burgers with different sides. The onion rings and fries were very good. No beers on tap though.

This is a restaurant you don't want to miss. Located at the end of it's own road in the Lake Louise village, it is the original train station in Lake Louise. As if on cue, a train roared past just as we sat down at our table. There is a ton of history in this building. Beautifully preserved antiques and photos from the late 1800's and early 1900's. So cool to look at them all. Gorgeous wood and beautifully decorated rooms. We were welcomed at the door with a lovely roaring fire. Our server, Meghan, was a delight our entire evening. She was friendly, professional, knowledgeable and lovely to chat with throughout our dinner. Service was exceptional and attentive. The food was exceptional as well. Meghan brought us delicious, warm, homemade buns with caraway seeds and flavoured butter to start. We ordered a side caesar salad to share and it arrived in a lovely presentation. The smoked peppercorn bacon added a delicious touch to a well balanced salad. Just the right amount of dressing too. We ordered the Alberta ribeye steak and the pork schnitzel. Both were a hit. The ribeye was perfectly grilled to a medium rare and served with crispy onions which paired beautifully together. The seasoning on the steak was perfect and every bite just melted in the mouth. We both chose the twice baked potato as our side and it was as delicious as it sounds. The pork schnitzel was pounded to a perfect thinness and came with a delicious light breading, exactly as presented on the menu. Lovely al dente vegetables ( rapini, grilled peppers and zucchini) accompanied our mains. The homemade pear chutney was a perfect marriage for the schnitzel. Not to be missed! Good selection of cocktails, beer and a good wine list to choose from. The portions are very generous as well. We managed to find a little room to share a dessert so we tried the maple pecan pie served with vanilla ice cream and a blueberry coulis. All in all, a perfect place for a special dinner or just a great choice if you appreciate great food, perfectly prepared!

This is one of my most favorite meals I’ve had in the Banff area. It felt like a really good home cooked meal. I got the ribeye with roasted veg and twice baked potato. The steak was cooked perfectly and it was huge. I wish they hadn’t peppered the steak, but I might be one of the few people who doesn’t like pepper. Reasonably priced and super friendly staff. Fast service. Cool atmosphere.

The restaurant was transferred from a train station, it could be a wonderful to see train passing while you dinning. The restaurant is well managed and the staffs are friendly, However, the food is good, but not as good as expected. it is a little bit pricy as well. we spent more than 100 $ for 2 main dishes and 1 cocktails. if you come to visit, make your budget at least from 50-60$ per person.

Had a chance to try this amazing local favorite in Lake Louise. Not only are the food amazing, the staff is so friendly and the place is full of history. They just opened again today for their summer hours so please check them out if you are in the area!! A must try!!!!! They are only open for part of the week now so give them a call or email to book your reservations! Am looking forward to returning in the summer!

A Hidden Gem in Plain Sight I had an incredible experience at Lake Louise Railway Station. Such a quaint, historic building (Interior photo) with the most accommodating staff and best service of any restaurant in the area. I was traveling alone and found the atmosphere so welcoming. Meagan was an exceptional server; extremely attentive and pleasant. As you can see, my dinner was to die for...the duck was prepared to perfection in a light morel mushroom sauce with a delicious variety of vegetables cooked to perfection. The plate was a work of art, so I took a photo to show my wife since I devoured the meal. This is a Don't Miss experience.
