We stopped in for a late lunch recently while visiting Yoho National Park. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating, and we requested a seat outside. The menu at Cilantro on the Lake includes some unique options including a lamb burger, a buffalo shawarma wrap, cheeseburger soft tacos, along with some pizzas and shareable appetizers and several cocktail and beer options. I opted to order the summer vegetable pizza and the cilantro poutine appetizer and share both items with my parents. The summer vegetable pizza was delicious and loaded up with artichokes, red peppers, olives and fresh argula with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. The cilantro poutine had a nice, flavorful gravy with plenty of cheese curds and a hefty serving of thick-cut french fries Customer service was great, Moira was friendly and welcoming and checked in often during our meal. The views of Emerald Lake are pretty amazing and provide good photo opportunities. I will say the prices for the food and drinks were steep, and more expensive than expected. I was interested in ordering a mocktail, but the $15 cost was too high. The pizza alone was $35. The total for our meal was about $70 including tip. So, this is something to keep in mind. However, the portions were very good, and we were all full and had trouble finishing up the pizza and poutine. Cilantro on the Lake is worth visiting if you're looking for a snack and want to enjoy a nice view.

Reposados emphasizes fresh ingredients and handmade preparations, including their corn tortillas and grilled street-style meats, and you can definitely see that philosophy reflected in the menu. The check-in line was pretty long, which was frustrating because I really just wanted to grab a drink at the bar. Once we got settled in, though, there were plenty of interesting things to try. I started with the Mezcal Plum Margarita, made with mezcal, Japanese plum wine, plum juice, lime, citric plum mist, and finished with a vanilla & cinnamon salt rim. It was a creative take on a margarita, fruity, smoky, tart, and nicely spiced from the rim. I also tried the Stolen Margarita, made with mezcal, peppercorn & ginger-infused vodka, mango togarashi shrub, miso, lime, and a togarashi Tajín salt rim. This was definitely a more adventurous cocktail, with smoky, spicy, savory, and tangy flavors all coming through. There is also a $2 jar deposit for the cocktail jar. For tacos, the Baja Pescado was my favorite. The crispy cod paired really well with the cabbage and carrot slaw, mango-jalapeño salsa, Repos sauce, pickled onions, and cilantro. The combination of crispy, fresh, sweet, spicy, and tangy flavors made this the standout taco for me. The Carne Asada featured slow-braised beef with salsa taquera, crispy potatoes and onions, and cilantro. Lots of hearty flavors and textures. The Chile Brussels taco was creative but way too spicy for me. It comes with crispy Brussels sprouts, honey chili crunch, whipped cotija and goat cheese, pickled red onion, peanuts, and cilantro. The combination sounded fantastic, but the heat overwhelmed the other flavors. Unfortunately, my to-go tacos were cold, which was disappointing and took away from what could have been a much better experience. Overall, I enjoyed the creative cocktails and the Baja Pescado was the clear taco winner. The long check-in line and cold to-go food were misses, but there are definitely some fun and inventive flavors here worth exploring.

If the service is bad and that's why you don't give a big tip, they run after you in the parking lot, shame you in front of other customers while lying about it. After that, they don't even apologize about that either. This was the first time something like this ever happened to me. What a shame. The food was excellent, but the service was very, very poor and later, infuriating. If service is good, a 20 % tip is in order. If the service is bad, then the customer should have the right to leave the tip they feel is right. Instead, our waitress ran out TO OUR CAR in front of all the other customers in the parking lot and said we had not paid enough, although the bill had been paid in TOTAL. A tip had been left, but not a big one. The situation: Having seen another customer order the steak (most expensive meal on the menu), we were very excited and ordered the same. Unfortunately, the meal took a long time to get to us and then came incomplete. It was also considerably smaller in portion compared to the other customer's meal we had seen. We asked that customer if they had ordered bigger portions, but they had said that they hadn't. Another customer who had bought the same dish said that they noticed the difference, but said they didn't want any stress that evening. We are assuming that our server was too busy to notice the difference, but she had said there was a new cook and he wasn't sure about what belonged to each plate. We guessed this was also the reason behind the discrepancy in portion size and the missing side dish. After we had told the waitress, she went back to the kitchen to get the missing side dish for us, but we got this after we were finished eating. Sitting around outside on the patio for our complete meal for 10 minutes would have spoiled it even more. Because of this, we decided not to order the dessert we were planning to. We had got the two most expensive meals on the menu, yet were treated like we were second class customers. Afterwards, we were accosted by the waitress AT OUR CAR for not leaving a big enough tip, her claiming that now that we didn't leave enough tip, she would lose money in total sales and would now have to pay the restaurant back money that we should have paid. This puzzled me, as WE HAD PAID OUR BILL IN TOTAL AND NO LOSS should be accounted for on her side. We didn't pay more than a 5% tip because although the kitchen had made a mistake, but she was also partly to blame for not noticing the mistake and for making up for it badly. Mistakes do happen, but usually a restaurant realizes that more should have been done in this situation, especially since the steak was the most expensive item on their menu. In other places, they offer the guests a tea or a coffee on the house, even offering to pay for dessert or a discount on the meal. Losing $3 is not much in comparison to losing sales or future customers. We, instead, were told to deal with it because the staff and the manager were too busy. Before writing this review, we wrote them 2 emails and gave them two days to respond. No apology or answer was made. read more

The location is a puzzler because the chef could probably work anywhere because he's so talented but obviously wanted a slower paced life away from where more restaurants of this caliber would be found. That being said finding this place is a total gem. A bit spendy but all things considered I'm not unhappy to pay for what they deliver. You have a bit of a trip outside golden to get here on the highway to radium but it's worth the extra effort to find it. The restaurant is gorgeous - a converted rustic cabin with a ton of attention to detail and the view and surroundings are just breath taking. It ALMOST felt like a private dining experience except there was one other couple in the other room but we were so separate it could have been just us, our server and the chef. Something I remember fondly is the wonderful playlist - I would love to know what some of the songs were. Despite the food and atmosphere the restaurant was casual dress which worked for us on our visit because we got in from a long drive a little later than we planned and didn't have time to suit up. Now for the food which really was the best part and why someone might go here in the first place. The amuse and bread set the done for the meal perfectly. The food was very earthy and wholesome with lots of berries, root vegetables and seeds and I don't think it's accidental that I think of these things as things I might have foraged in the woods where were situated. Well, assuming I could forage VERY well and then also cook them up into some amazing heaven. I would see the same ingredients show up in other dishes and love how different they tasted while staying along the same flavor profile. Really well thought out menu for sure and the ingredients are high quality and thoughtfully chosen. Something I most appreciate is being a vegetarian here didn't make me feel like an afterthought. I could eat both the soup and salad and there was an entree that was as special as any of the meat options. I don't know where the idea for the veggie steak came from, but wowsers do I wish I could take some basic produce and make something like that. The steak was literally a thick cut slice of from a head of cauliflower then then seared like a steak and seasoned to be amazing. If someone told me they wanted me to pay $30 for a slice of cauliflower I might have told them where to go but this was truly inspired and packed with flavor somehow. I don't even normally like cauliflower, I don't dislike it but I don't seek it out and I just loved this preparation. My husband pointed out that the "steak" was laying in a think sauce (I actually think it was more of the soup) and it made it look "bloody" like a steak might. Although that's not the kind of thing a vegetarian likes to think about, I think it's also very cleaver. Overall this place is just divine. We ate here because we stayed here and figured out after it had such a highly acclaimed restaurant which was totally just a happy accident. We'll be coming back next time through Golden.
