Cannot recommend more! It was safe for celiacs and even made a carnivore say he could become vegetarian. Really beautiful and tasty food! The staff is so polite and kind.

The service was decent and the atmosphere is great, but the pizza has definitely changed. It was disappointing to learn that the gluten free crust is different. The crust is more crunchy and doesn’t taste as nice; the previous option was soft and could hardly tell it was gluten free. It also seems they are very inconsistent with topping amounts. Ordered the exact same pizza on the regular crust as well and it had about half the toppings as the gluten free one.

We loved this place. Best burger I’ve had in a very long time (bison burger), plus the waiter was first class. They catered really well for my coeliac wife and the beers they had from the 3 Bears local brewery were excellent too.

We had a delicious meal last night. Our server Cate, was very helpful as I am gluten intolerant and she made sure everything I ate was safe. I could eat most things on the menu so if you’re gluten free, I highly recommend this restaurant!!! It was soo nice to be able to enjoy most of the foods and to also enjoy the ginger beef, that they light on fire with brandy at your table! I never get to eat cool things like that so thank you so much Brazen, for all the gluten free options!!

Amidst the burgers, pizzas and other comfort foods dominating this area, Bison offers some genuinely interesting dishes. Octopus, bison bolognese, halibut and, if you insist, they even have a burger. Plenty of gluten free options, and if you’re with a friend, there’s a massive tomahawk to share. Food and service was excellent, and if you’re lucky enough to sit out on the terrace on a balmy summer’s evening, it’s the perfect spot for dinner in Banff.

Absolutely phenomenal. Came during happy hour for a snack and beverage, left having had several small plates, two large plates, and two cocktails. Cate and the kitchen were beyond accommodating to our very annoying food intolerances. She is a top notch professional, as is the rest of the Block team. 10/10 try the duck croquettes (they're gluten free!!)

The first time I came here I had a great experience. Food was awesome and the service was somehow even better. Second time around not so great. My server was quite rude and difficult to deal with. I went to order a drink I had the time prior and he was quick to shut me down and tell me that that wasn’t possible and they couldn’t do that. The server was quite pushy and made it clear he wanted me out of there as he missed apart of my order and didn’t try to fix it. I’m celiac and the time prior I wasn’t able to have the cubed hashbrowns due to cross contamination and today there was no issue with it or I should say the server didn’t care. Regardless the potatoes used weren’t washed prior to deep frying as I had two bites and each one I had gotten grit/sand in my teeth when chewing. I had previously thought this place was a top tier Banff restaurant but now I don’t know what to think.

Absolutely stunning experience! My husband and I celebrated our honeymoon-birthday-anniversary here, so we wanted to go all out. We got the package that includes a ticket on the gondola and a dinner option included. Ashley was incredibly helpful in pointing out her personal favourite dishes so we got the best experience. Many options for gluten free, dairy free, vegan and vegetarian. Our recommendation is the bison main. We hope to come back someday!

The restaurant is nice and the food is high quality, and delicious, but in particular the staff here are fantastic. The server we had, whose name I forget (possibly was Billy, but the bill said Snuffy) was kind, knowledgable, and cared about my food allergies. I didn't really even mention them too much but he picked up on them immediately, and made me aware of ingredients in everything. And, he was actually aware of cross contamination! As a person with several food allergies and sensitivities, eating out is generally irritating and personally invasive, as servers want to know what specifically happens to you, as if being celiac is any worse than colitis, for example. No one wants to talk about that when they go to eat. Chances are, if someone who has a food allergy or sensitivity is at a restaurant, they know what they're doing, they know how it will affect them, and they are prepared for that. This guy didn't question me on anything, he just went above and beyond. As an annoying person to serve and cook for, I fully appreciate this. I don't know more servers aren't caring, but this guy totally made the trip to Banff just so much more worth it.

Huge selection of pho, vermicelli and assortment of Chinese and Vietnamese dishes. Pho was hearty despite lacking the flavours of an authentic pho broth. The portion was definitely big enough for us to share (2 pho bowls for 3 females). Sesame chicken was also nice and sweet! The servers were very accommodating and knowledgable given that one of us is gluten free. Some seats have great view of the mountains too!

As a family with celiac disease, finding a safe and truly delicious dining experience can be a challenge—but Lupo exceeded all our expectations! From the moment we walked in, the staff was knowledgeable, kind, and completely accommodating to our gluten-free needs. This was one of the best meals I have ever experienced! We enjoyed the chicken parmigiana, which was perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside—completely gluten-free and absolutely amazing. The pesto pasta was fresh and flavorful, with a sauce that tasted homemade and rich without being heavy. And the chocolate cake? Decadent, moist, and hands-down one of the best gluten-free desserts we’ve ever had. Lupo is a must-visit for anyone looking for safe, delicious, and thoughtfully prepared gluten-free food. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit!

To begin with, I will state my thesis that I cannot recommend this place. To prove my point I would like to underline, that we waited for more than an hour for our food. Moreover, they forgot to make one pizza with gluten free dough. Putting everything into consideration, it was not a great experience

We stayed at the Banff Springs Fairmont for 5 days and had breakfast in the vermillion room 4 times (breakfast came with our package!) and dinner once. I am symptomatic celiac so much of my review centers on those aspects. All of the staff members we encountered were knowledgeable and helpful. As of April 25, 2024 they had a dedicated GF frier. They did not mark my GF meal separate from my husband’s non-GF but every time my food was delivered it was specified that it was the GF celiac safe dish. Breakfast - for the first 3 days I ordered off the a la carte menu (had the vermillion breakfast twice and the french omelette once). I had been eyeing the buffet because there were so many options but wasn’t sure it was safe for me (as a sensitive, symptomatic celiac). On the last day I mentioned that to the server and she let me know I was welcome to get the buffet, and they would prepare everything in the back and bring it out. So I went up to the buffet, picked out what I wanted and gave that list to my server. Not on the menu, but they can do GF toast, pancakes, made to order omlettes, etc. Dinner - we ate dinner here on a busy evening. There was a bit of an issue with timing but overall it was a great experience. The crème brûlée is to die for, and many dishes are GF or can be made GF with modifications. *cross posted to FindMeGF

Had the most amazing dinner tonight at The Fat Ox Banff. What a treasure to experience. Mathieu our server made our night one to remember. His food and wine recommendations were perfect and ensure us an incredible gastronomy experience!! - 30 month Prosciutto, mustard melon, aged balsamic, arugula - Venison Carpaccio, evoo, parmigiana, capers, arugula, sea salt - Shrimp “Scampi”, Calabrian chili garlic butter, focaccia - Bison Tagliatelle, gluten free, classic meat bolognese - Rigatoni Carbonara, pancetta, egg yolk, parmigiana - Freeman’s Abbey Merlot Best part for me is that they put in the same care and attention to my gluten free substitute that they did to the other dishes we had. I cannot always say that. Thank you Mathieu and Fat Ox Banff. Totally recommend a visit - mouth watering meal.
