I must say the pad thai was soooo goood! It didn't taste like traditional pad thai to be honest, so I wouldn't order it expecting that but it was very seafood-y (in the best way) and the flavor was still phenomenal. I'd order that and the tofu again, which was also unique and delicious. The pork sisig was good but on the saltier side. The first few bites were good but I may consider sharing that next time or just getting something else. The spot is cute and was able to accommodate my large party very quickly and the staff was awesome. Friendly and very helpful. Stop by here for a bite if you're in the area!

The runner-up was the charred green vegetables. Seriously, that sauce is CRACK! We could have eaten it by the spoonful! We also tried a variety of dumplings. The vegetable ones weren't our favorite, but the pork and chicken dumplings were delicious. The ravioli was rich and incredibly tasty, and the chicken katsu sandwich was HUGE and packed with flavor! Of course, we had to try one of every mocktail! They were all refreshing and delicious, but the mango was the clear standout for us. All in all, a fantastic meal with so many memorable dishes. We'd absolutely come back, especially for those pork belly burnt ends and charred greens! Service was friendly and fast. Inside outside seating available.

While visiting Canmore a group of us stopped into BLAKE Brewhouse and Distillery for dinner. BLAKE…read moreis in a newer building and has a large elbow-shaped patio for outdoor dining. Our group was located in an annex room right of the main entrance and was the perfect size to fit all of us. We had 2 primary servers who did an excellent job of making sure we had full glasses and full plates. We did family-style sharing of some of their starters and main dishes. The Bread and Butter was really delicious and it looks like their butter flavor is on rotation daily. The duck wings had a peach glaze and nuoc cham and cilantro- great combination. The chicken vegetable dumplings had great skin and texture. The peppercorn salad was adorned with pickled cabbage, capers, maple coconut, crunchy chickpeas and more - it was amazing. We also tried the Thai basil risotto and it was good but I'd go with the peppercorn salad over this if you're sticking vegetarian. The final dish was Alberta AAA Beef Brisket accompanied by gochujang mashed potatoes and broccolini. The brisket was incredible and just melted on the tongue. And the beer/spirits here were impressive as well. BLAKE is a must-try destination while in Canmore!

Instead, the food felt disconnected from the dishes it was meant to represent. We ordered the sinigang, but it arrived as fried calamari with a separate bowl of fresh sliced tomatoes and spinach, plus a small cup of broth that we had to pour ourselves. It didn't capture the comforting, flavorful essence of traditional sinigang that we were expecting. The portions were also small for the price. Unfortunately, the meal did not feel worth the money, and we left disappointed.

We started with two small plates and a vegetable: Salmon Crudo, Pickled Marinated Fried Chicken and the Cabbage. Wow. Wow. Wow. We decided to eat each one entirely before moving to the next one. Each one had such unique flavors, we wanted to focus on them and enjoy without confusing our taste buds. I highly recommend doing this! Then we ordered the Lamb dish. Our menu said it was going to be a curry dish, but when it arrived it was a Mediterranean dish. It was honestly dreamy! But we were confused because I guess we had a copy of the old menu. Nonetheless, I basically licked the plate! Lastly we ordered the chocolate salted caramel budino (pudding) for dessert. It was so luscious and went perfectly with our end of dinner hot drinks of tea and cappuccino. The serviced matched the food: also fantastic. Super professional and friendly waitress (I forgot to ask her name) she was so personal and we enjoyed talking to her. They comp'd our lamb because of the menu mixup which was so nice! If you're a foodie who enjoys good service, definitely try this place!

Ramen Arashi is probably one of the best ramen shops in town. We actually wanted to try this…read moreyesterday in Banff, but the time and wait just didn't work out for us, so we aimed to try this today in Canmore. We finished up our day exploring Kootenay and ended up at Ramen Arashi around 7:30ish PM and we entered ourselves on the waitlist. It's a small shop, so we didn't get a chance to ask how long wait would be, but judging by the 10 min wait we did, the turnover seemed fairly quick. We just did a quick walk around the nearby grocery store and back and our table was ready. Between the four of us, we shared Chicken Karaage (2 orders) and a Pork Gyoza. My partner got the Arashi Ramen while I got the Yuzu-Shio Ramen. Order came out quickly. The Chicken Karaage was fried pretty nicely. Juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. It came with a sweet red chili sauce I believe. I think that pairing was okay. Sauce wise, I would have preferred an aioli or none at all. The gyoza were also made the same - juicy on the inside and had a crispy outer wonton shell. This sauce was spicy though! So if your spicy tolerance is low, taste at your own risk. My partner loved it! I just can't handle that spice level. Onto my main dish, the Yuzu-Shio was great for the chilly night! Ramen was perfectly cooked and had a bouncy chew to it. The pork was not too fatty and also tender. The spinach and bamboo shoots were great additional toppings. I wish they swap out the salad leaves with some more hearty veggies since the salad leaves break down with the hot soup pretty easily. Otherwise it was a great and satisfying dinner. I'm glad we got to try this while we were in Canmore!

Service: took about 30 minutes to wait for a table, but its in downtown Canmore so I went to look at other nearby shops in the meantime. Once we had a table, service and food came out fast.

It featured a flavorful peanut curry satay sauce, and the crispy texture of the tofu balanced perfectly with the rice and the crunchy cabbage, carrots, and edamame. Lastly, the AAA Alberta Beef Short Ribs entree ($47 CAD) was spectacular. The ribs were thoroughly marinated and so tender they literally fell apart in my mouth.
