Altitude Restaurant

This restaurant has a great view of the glaciers, with a comfortable, clean, and modern atmosphere. The windows are big enough to see the entire view of the glacier mountains. It also has a patio, so in good weather, I think it would be an awesome experience to sit outside, surrounded by the stunning glaciers. The waitress is very polite and helpful, offering good suggestions for dinner, and talked with you like a friend. The dinner food is average and doesn't quite match the price, but it's the only restaurant in the area. Breakfast is served in the same room as dinner, but the quality of the breakfast food is even lower. The sausage was cold, and the bread was over-toasted

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Altitude Restaurant in Alberta, and I can confidently say it’s a must-visit spot! The atmosphere is inviting and vibrant, making it perfect for families. A special shoutout to our wonderful hosts, Sophie and Hannah. They went above and beyond to accommodate our young kids, ensuring they felt welcomed and entertained throughout our meal. Their attention to detail and warm service truly enhanced our dining experience. The menu offers a fantastic selection of vegan and vegetarian options, making it easy for everyone in our group to find something delicious. The prices are reasonable considering the quality of food and service we received. Overall, I highly recommend Altitude Restaurant for anyone in the area. The combination of great service, a welcoming ambience, and diverse menu options makes it a standout choice. Thank you Hannah, for your exceptional hospitality!

We had an amazing experience dining at Altitude. Booked a table thru Opentable because I'm afraid of not getting a table as the hotel is secluded in the heart of the Icefield Parkway. We arrived and got served right away. Ordered an appetizers, main course and drinks. Everything that we ordered are what you expect from a fine dining restaurant, the plating and its taste are superb! Staff are friendly and accomodating and you have a Million dollar view while eating and drinking. We're so impressed. Kudos to the Chef and staff! Would definitely come back if ever we visit the Icefield again. 👌🏻 What we ordered: House Bread & Mushroom Bisque Lobster Ravioli The Albertan Rib Road 12 Arctic Char Benvolio Prosecco

Altitude restaurant offered breathtaking views of the glacier and mountains. The scenic beauty surrounding the place was truly awe-inspiring, and I must admit, it was the highlight of our visit. However, the overall experience fell short of our expectations. One aspect that stood out immediately was the unusual payment system. We were required to pay upfront before even getting a chance to sit down and enjoy our meal. This process felt impersonal and somewhat inconvenient, as we had to make choices and payments before seeing what was actually available on the buffet line. Despite the stunning views, the restaurant was not busy at all. We were the only ones in there. It seemed like most visitors preferred heading to the cafe. If you like the privacy I would recommend going here. But it did cost $43 per adult and $21 per child. On the positive side, I must commend the restaurant's cleanliness. The staff did an excellent job of keeping the place tidy and presentable. Nonetheless, the main reason for visiting a buffet restaurant is, undoubtedly, the food. Regrettably, this is where the experience took a downturn. There was a great selection but unfortunately majority of the dishes were laking flavour. The food for me was not that good. Yes it was all you can eat but I could tell it was not the best quality. In conclusion, while the restaurant boasted a beautiful view of the glacier and mountains, the overall dining experience was underwhelming. If the establishment can focus on improving the quality and variety of their buffet offerings, it has the potential to become a fantastic dining destination.

Doing the glacier ice field walk and had about an hour wait. They have me a 25% discount on the biffet so i decided to try it out. The view is awesome of the Athabasca Glacier. The food though was basic and very bland.

After the amazing glacier walk adventure, It is one of the best foods you can have in a national park , we had in-house handmade pasta, with bread on side and butter( reminded me of Indian white butter back home) , so fresh, delicious and flavorful ingredients.. we also ordered peach n corn soup. Everything tasted more than perfect and our server was so helpful for all customizations.

The food was very good among most of the restaurants we had in Banff/Jasper. Salmon was well cooked. The pasta was creamy. The scrambled eggs for breakfast was tender. And the Benedict was flavorful

Dinner on Sep 11, 2023 as the last stop before Motel David Thompson. It opens at 6 pm and we wished to finish the dinner at 7 pm because we wanted to arrive in the motel before darkness. The waitress fully cooperated. Food, services and atmosphere all good. The view is unique. You can see the Columbia Icefield through the windows.
