Exception restaurant in Canmore!! Was tricked by friends when brought here initially - thought it was marijuana edibles on the menu. Went for a late lunch on a weekend. Gorgeous interior with two dining areas with a view of an open kitchen in between. Huge assortment of food from appetizers to pizza to smaller and larger dishes. Ate family style and tried all the food. The pickled brined chicken was a highlight - so flavourful and could be made into a lettuce wrap. The cabbage was surprisingly good. Service was fantastic. Only strange thing was the hours. Not open until 2 pm. read more

I absolutely love Crazyweed. The food is exceptional, and it has long been my favourite dinner spot in Canmore, Alberta. Whenever we host family or friends, we make sure to include an evening at Crazyweed--because we truly enjoy it that much. I've recommended it to countless people visiting Canmore and have left many glowing reviews over the years. I'm genuinely grateful to have such an elevated restaurant in our town. This week, we actually dined at Crazyweed twice. Our Wednesday experience was exactly what we've come to expect: incredible food and warm, attentive service. I shared a positive review afterward. Unfortunately, our Saturday visit for a party of five was very different. While the food was, as always, outstanding--kudos to the chef and kitchen team--the service was surprisingly disappointing. We arrived ten minutes late for our 5:45 p.m. reservation, which I fully acknowledge. However, our server (a shorter woman with long reddish-brown hair) seemed irritated from the moment we sat down. She immediately reminded us that our table was booked until 7:45 p.m. and pushed us to order drinks, appetizers, and entrées almost instantly. Throughout the meal she repeated, "because you were late," four or five times. There were no pleasantries, no warmth--only frustration. The only time she seemed pleased was when we asked for the bill. What made this even more confusing was that the restaurant wasn't full; there were multiple empty tables throughout our meal. Her fixation on our being ten minutes late felt unnecessarily harsh. Despite this, we enjoyed our meal and were completely finished well before 7:45 p.m. Our receipt showed 7:27 p.m. Yet another staff member (with long straight dark brown hair) came to our table to tell us we had only eight minutes left "because we were late" and that another reservation needed the table. No one was waiting, and that party had not yet arrived, but we were still ushered out in a way that felt abrupt and unprofessional. When I asked to speak with the manager or owner, the same woman returned only to argue with me about how many times the lateness had been mentioned. There was no apology, no attempt to listen, and no effort to de-escalate the situation. She refused to give her name and was confrontational rather than constructive. These two staff members should not be in customer-facing roles--especially not at a restaurant of Crazyweed's caliber. Their behaviour was disrespectful and completely out of step with the exceptional service we've consistently experienced from the rest of the team. I am deeply disappointed. I have always gone out of my way to support and recommend Crazyweed, which makes this experience all the more upsetting. The food remains extraordinary, but the service we received on Saturday was far below the standard Crazyweed is known for. read more

I was really craving some meat and this place delivered. A bit on the pricey side, and reservations are definitely recommended, but the food was worth it. What made this meal: -I ordered the Chipotle Crusted Bavette. Super tender and full of flavor. I'm always a sucker for a good steak, and this one didn't disappoint. Some other things that were average but good: -Spinach pizza was elevated with the pear. I liked it but not crazy about it. -Pickled brined fried chicken was good. Just a nice crispy chicken that you can wrap with lettuce. -Grilled Lamb Sirloin (minus cilantro) was good but the curry was a bit cold. Docking a star for the wait time. It took over 40 minutes for our food to arrive. I understand they try to time the dishes to come out together, but it would've been nice if they asked whether we wanted our small plate served first since we were treating it like an appetizer. And by serving it all at the same time, one person's curry arrived slightly cold, and another dish came out even later (maybe it got missed in the order). We were a party of six, so I get that things can get hectic. I only wish the food had arrived a bit sooner, or that the staff had asked if we preferred dishes to be served as they were ready. Overall, I'd still recommend this spot, just make an earlier reservation so you're not starving while waiting. read more

The well-traveled chef demonstrated the Asian western fusion cuisine to the max! I loved the prawn ceviche, fried chicken, labneh, mushroom skewer and Canadian red wine at happy hour are so worth it!! read more

Such a diverse menu here! We tried: * Labneh: very good flavors with eggplant and herbs * Masala ribs: large portion size; the masala spices were very mild, so it was more like normal ribs (1 star off) * Thai chicken: overall flavor was good, but I did not get any of the cilantro, lime, and coconut listed on the menu * Chocolate budino cake: a solid chocolate cake to end a meal I was a little worried about the kind of restaurant called Crazyweed, but was pleasantly surprised by a good dinner here. And it was not because the food was laced with crazy weed...at least as far as I know. read more

Great overall experience. Easy to make a reservation which I would recommend doing. Cute ambiance. We sat inside but the patio looked lovely. Service was optimal. Waited around 10 minutes for a server to come, but the hostess brought us water while waited. Drink orders were dirty martini, fen old fashioned, and earl gray cocktail. All were fabulous. Food order was the wedge salad, orecchiette, dear baba, and chipotle crusted bavette. Would recommend all of them! Good portion sizes. My boyfriend and I split the wedge and bavette and it was lefty for the both of us. My only complaint is there are inconsistencies/incorrect info in the menu with items and where they are originally from... not a big deal. Just something I enjoy knowing and looking at. Still a great experience. read more

Great spot with eclectic menu. Everything we got tasted like more. The shrimp ceviche had great Thai flavors and was wonderful with the good morning Vietnam cocktail. Our waiter was great and we celebrated a friends birthday perfectly here at crazy weed. Our table got two orders of the cabbage and basically asked for the recipe. Hallumi flavors were bold and complementary. Would go back! read more

This was our face time and it was our friend's favourite place so that's why we went there! Right from the outside, the place looks beautiful and cozy! When we entered the place, it was the same vibe. They had beautiful artworks around and the place was beautifully designed and decorated. The staff were all friendly, helpful and professional! The food was great! We all enjoyed the amazing appetizers and then the main course was really delicious! The drinks were also great and we loved our experience there! I'm sure I'll go back there again and I highly recommend this place! :) read more

Excellent bartender and staff. However, we came here based on reviews, and this place is way overrated and way overpriced for what you get We had an appetizer beet dish that you could have done better picking up at Walmart And to top the disappointing food experience, they confused their regular $45 restaurant salmon with someone else's so my simple salmon took so long that I had to take it home (look at photo of takeout box) because we had to pick up our dog. Skip this place. read more

Crazyweed was by far my favorite place we ate at during our time in Banff & Canmore. The food is incredible. Such interesting dishes full of flavor. Our waitress was SO nice and offered up some suggestions for us as it was our first day in Canmore coming from Banff. Definitely eat here if you want quality dishes with a simple, casual atmosphere! read more

Came here for a family dinner on our last day of the trip in Banff. We sat outside on their patio area, where there is a beautiful view of the Canadian Rockies. Service is great as everyone is very interactive and curious what brings us to the area. We ordered a handful of items to be split amongst the table. For small plates, the Yellowfin "Five Alive" Ceviche ($24) was probably my favorite. Tastes just as good as your typical Tuna Ceviche with a tasty puree. This comes with corn chips which are house made. The Pickle Brined Fried Chicken ($24) is like getting popcorn chicken or karaage. The garlic aioli dipping sauce that comes with it enhances the taste. The Forest Floor Mushroom Skewers ($16) I think is a pretty simple dish. We just needed a veggie dish and this was it. The for big plates, we got the The Grilled Lamb Sirloin ($49), which was heavily recommended by the host that seated us. The presentation is pretty wild as the steak sits on top of potatoes with is on top of a mbassaman curry, which goes really well with the steak if I may add. And then they give you two onion rings, which they stack on top of all of this. The steak is a very thick cut, so it may look puny, but it is dense. Would recommend. We also ordered their Slammin' Salmon Side Dough ($25) (what they called their pizza). It's not everyday you see salmon as a pizza topping and get an entire pie for the table. I enjoyed this particular one where the use of the creme fraiche really goes well with the salmon and the pizza dough. read more

Cool vibe with a fun fusion menu. We enjoyed everything we tried - top favs were the pickle fried chicken and Alberta beef. Honestly I did not care for the broccoli with blue cheese but they put the sauce on the bottom so I could pick around it. The drinks were awesome and service exceptional. Everyone from the host to the waiter were welcoming, even though we were one of the later tables (late flight in). read more

A hidden treasure in Canmore! My friends and I stopped by here for a dinner after an 11-mile hike looking like absolute tired bums. Regardless, we were greeted and seated so quickly and with such a sweet wait staff! Note that this place is really nice and we were definitely out of place in our hiking clothes. Parking was also really easy as they have plenty of spaces. The food was insane.The dishes were so creative and so tasty. The labneh was my favorite appetizer. We also tried the Thai chicken, salmon, short rib, and lamb bolognese. Take any random pick and I guarantee it's going to be amazing! The only thing I wouldn't order again was the icebox lemon cake with berry compote. It was DELICIOUS but definitely an ice box - I thought I was going to break the plate with how hard I was thwacking on the dessert. Special shoutout to that fenugreek old-fashioned drink. Probably the best old-fashioned Ive ever had. Debated going to the bar to ask for the recipe! I would come back to Canmore just for this gem. read more

This place was an absolute gem! I love the food, the drinks, and the service was great. My favorite drink was their Old Fashioned. It had a hint of Maple which made it sweet and smooth. Our starter was the Labneh which I absolutely enjoyed. It was sweet with the honey and was just a perfect plate. Though all of the 4 entrees we ordered were delicious, I think the Thai Chicken comes on top for flavor. My bavette came out cold, but my server didn't hesitate to give me an another plate that was cooked better. The ice box lemon cake was interesting. It was basically hard ice cream. It was good but I'm not a fan. This was our food stop after a long day of touring lakes in Banff and a hike in Grassi lakes. I want to fly back just to come and eat here again and try their other food items. read more

Great food. Great service. Great environment. It was a great place to celebrate our trip!

This place was so consistent and we made it our GO TO in Canmore, AB. The food & service were AWESOME

The food here was so good that my family and I returned our next night because we couldn't try everything we wanted on the menu. Reservations are a must if you want to eat at a reasonable time. The flavor are so amazing in all the vegetarian things we tried, but my absolute favorite was the blue cheese broccoli. The blue cheese is not overbearing, there's a little bit of spicy, and the broccoli is cooked perfectly. The labneh is also amazing and a must try. Also leave room for dessert, chocolate budino is a must! Baked Alaska was also good. Sadly no donuts available when we went. Kids menu is available as well. The only thing we didn't love was the curry, we opted to make it vegetarian and probably shouldn't have because it was very bland. On the menu it's served with prawns so the dish as intended is probably very good. read more

We didn't have any reservations when we came here for dinner, but we were seated as soon as we got there. They asked if we were ok with outdoor seating, and that was perfect! We wanted a view of the mountains during dinner. We ordered the giant parmesan churro, the Dude pizza and the ceviche. Everything tasted nice. I took out one star, because they didn't give us a kid's menu when they seated us (My daughter is 11 years old). A few minutes after I had placed our orders was when I overheard the other waiter say something like, "the kid's menu comes with a free dessert" to the table next to us. That was when I asked our waiter about it, and he said, yes they do have a kid's menu, so I asked for it. However, after 10 minutes, still no kid's menu. I asked the table next to us if I can borrow the kid's menu. However, I didn't order anything off it anymore because it will take another 15-20 mins for the food to come. read more

It's worth leaving the highway for!!! If you're driving by Canmore, stop to eat here. We were in Canmore for a week and ate here twice and planning on stopping here every time we are near Canmore. It's our new favorite. They had this pumpkin creme Brule just for Thanksgiving or was incredible. The food was beyond spectacular. Next level elite. The baba ganoush fries and masala ribs are must haves. We had the short rib, Bavette, Thai chicken, and the salmon. They were all amazing. Dessert was sticky date pudding with orange cardamom ice cream. The ice cream they make in house. Along with everything else. The food was great, the drinks were also really, really good. The only thing that was less than perfect but wasn't enough for us to really be bothered was that pop refills were an extra charge. Minor. Service and staff were friendly and relaxed. I recommend a reservation. read more

Crazyweed Kitchen offers a luxurious dining experience in Canmore that combines amazing service with even more amazing food. The hardest part was deciding what to eat because everything on the menu sounded delicious. You can't go wrong with any of the items. For 2 people we went with the tomato salad, poke, short ribs, and the curry dish.. all 10/10 Definitely get a can of local cider from Core Values ( they also have a tasting room down the street) or choose from the delicious drinks and wines they offer. I'm absolutely coming back next time we visit Canmore. 10/10 would recommend to a friend. read more

Some parking right in front of the restaurant. Staff were friendly. We were worried there was a dress code but there is not. Can dress up or not. WARNING food took over 45min to arrive. Our appetizer arrived with the main meal so in future I will specify I want it actually as an appetizer. Meatballs were pretty unsuprising. Meat was fine. Sauces was rich and thick which was nice. Pickle brined fried chicken was the only dish I thought was appropriately priced for the portion. Chicken was 10/10 delicious. Loved the fresh crisp lettuce leaves with it to make chicken lettuce wraps. Sauces was nice additive. I would get this again. Fried halloumi - was great but so pricey for just 2 slices of cheese with 10 sprouts on-top. Friend got the Thai chicken - They were happy with the portion but it was $36 which I thought was too much for 1 chicken breast and white rice. They also got the Labneh they were really happy with the seasoning and flavor of this. Good amount of flatbread to go with it as well. Overall too overpriced for my liking but I really enjoyed the chicken. read more

Crazyweed Kitchen - Negroni great after a day in Banff! - Asian Fusion Near Me - Canmore, Alberta

Eclectic, inventive menu with something for everyone. Great location in the heart of Cranmore near Safeway and easy parking and a great outdoor space. Great for an intimate dinner or a group affair. Big focus on an extensive drink menu. Service was very polite and food came out hot and delicious. We received much less attention than those who ordered alcohol - 2 couples near us ordered cocktails and wine respectively and they had near-constant attention from the waitress. Our only drink order was iced tea and not once were we asked for a refill or another - we only saw our waitress for our check after ordering. Typical for an alcohol focused place but a minor issue. The food was terrific - the beet salad was sooooo good! We had the salmon and the Thai chicken. The flavors of each were fabulous. Good sized portions. We will come again to try some of the other offerings. Definitely will want to make a reservation! read more

Simply put, this place is FANTASTIC. Our meals and drinks were top notch. The fried halloumi appetizer is something I will dream about from now on lol. The sweet and salty combo was so delicious. I had the Thai chicken and the cilantro lime sauce that it was in was incredible. I need the recipe the flavors melded so we'll. My fiancé had the Forest Floor Rigatoni which had an amazing salty, umami flavor to it from the mushrooms. We shared these 2 plates, and they were decent portions. I also had the grapefruit margarita and you could tell it was fresh grapefruit juice! Would highly recommend if you ever come to Canmore! read more

Superb. A family-run place with five-star food and service. The restaurant has a casual, classy vibe, but it really shines when the food arrives. Every dish and drink was five stars.

Came here for lunch and we were immediately seated at a very comfy table (nice armchairs/pillows). We ordered the Oscar Wilde pizza and the Pickle Brined Fried Chicken. The pizza was excellent, the cheese blend was tasty and the crust was crispy but also light and fluffy. I really liked the aioli for the fried chicken and I enjoyed the aromatics (lemon & dill). Could've definitely turned up the spice (more pickled Serrano please), and my boyfriend wasn't too keen on the acidity levels which he thought was too much for some bites. Food here was great, nice ambience, and good service. Definitely recommend eating here if you stop by Canmore ! read more

I generally don't like writing bad reviews, but after reading the multiple star reviews, we decided to give the restaurant a try on our first day in Canmore/ Alberta as part of a weeklong trip. The experience unfortunately left my group avoiding Canmore/ Canmore restaurants for the remainder of our trip. Overall - Service from our server was average in some instances and below standard in others. - Service from other members - hostess and busser were good and friendly. - Food was slightly above average overall, some good, and some average. But no food is worth subpar service in my opinion. - If we had another server, or even the busser for the entire service, I think it could've easily been a 4 star review. ==== The Good - We didn't have a reservation on a Friday night and the hostess was kind enough to make room for a group of 4 after a 15 minute wait, which we appreciated. - It was slightly busy and while the hostess was not at the stand when I arrived a server informed me she would be right with me. - The steak and squash were good. One of the only highlights of the evening. - The Chef's Curry was average, a little light on the taste, okay for a member of our group, but I found it slightly towards the bland side. - Our water was refilled, by the busser who was friendlier. The Bad - Service from our server was like a rollercoaster - friendly in some instances and almost rude at other times. - While it was slightly busy, there were times when she should've checked on us, but didn't even after eye contact was made in comparison to many other restaurants. She wasn't busy enough to not check on other tables. - While we were discussing the menu and waiting to order (we waited quite a while for the server to come back after dropping off the menu), she rushed over, reached over a member of our group's arm and grabbed the cocktail menu without asking if we needed it or apologizing or saying anything and rushed off to drop the menu off to another table. - We waited longer and when she returned, she did not ask if we were ready, she did not greet us, we just told her our order while she wrote it down. - It was at this point when we decided to "gently" inform her of our displeasure by asking her for the cocktail menu and that we had some questions for her before she previously took it away. - Food came slowly with no indication or communication from our server. - After the food arrived, and after we gently informed our server of our displeasure, she did seem slightly friendlier. - When we asked about adding to our order later, our server indicated that it's a bit too late (kitchen closed), but added that she would check. She never came back to us after that with a response. We understand that it's late and the kitchen probably closed, but if she offered to check, then she should be returning to let us know. To be honest, I really wished I didn't give the amount of gratuity I did. I can't remember the last time I regretted my decision on the gratuity amount as much as I did later that night after I left the restaurant. It's left such a sour taste out our mouths that we ended up eating in Banff the next night and making our own food the night after. While it may be a single individual and a single incident, we lost our interest in staying, dining and exploring any other part of Canmore. If anyone asks me, the restaurant is definitely not one I would recommend and I regretted not picking another restaurant that night. read more

Crazyweed Kitchen - Bavette - Asian Fusion Near Me - Canmore, Alberta

We are back after what seems to be an eternity at this wonderful place in Canmore. We started our meal with an awesome Thai carrot soup. The soup was mildly spicy with delicious subtle flavour undertones. My wife followed her soup with perfectly prepared ribs and fries salted with kosher salt. My daughter and I had Thai chicken curry with basmati rice and naan bread. Delicious curry worthy of a master chef. My daughter and I shared a chocolate buddino for dessert. A highly satisfying meal as near to culinary perfection as possible. I have had Thai curry in Thailand and I can compare. And the mountains were spectacular. We have dined here before, and we will be back! read more

Crazyweed Kitchen - Asian Fusion Near Me - Canmore, Alberta

My most recent visit to Crazyweed did not meet the expectations of memories I had here. I hyped it up quite a bit to my girlfriend so after our average meal I was left kind of disappointed. I will say if I could give it 3.5 stars I would. We ordered the Brussel Sprouts, Tartare, Ahi Tuna, and the Calamari. I personally thought the Tartare was easily the best dish of the bunch and my girlfriend preferred the Ahi Tuna. I went on and on about the Calamari before we got there, saying that it was the best I had ever had but it turned out to be much more bland than previous memories. Also the Brussel Sprouts were just average. I'd probably go back when I'm in Canmore just because from what I remember it's usually better than what I experienced this time around. Maybe it was just an off night for them. read more
