The place is small inside and there is outdoor seating also available. The servers so friendly and gave us great suggestions! The owners also own Shoku and we landed up going there to try their cocktails and food. This place will not disappoint you!

We got the mushroom risotto (so unique), the vegetarian bao bun, and the vegetarian lettuce wraps (make sure to ask for vegan so they can sub the non-vegan sauce). The only con was that the restaurant itself was small and can only take a few parties at a time. We got lucky and took the 6 remaining seats at the bar, but be prepared to wait if you're a bigger party. That said, the staff and bartender were very nice and service time was fairly normal. Would recommend!

There were four of us, and we waited about 10 minutes for a table, but you can also make a reservation ahead of time if you don't want to wait. Once seated, service was efficient and friendly. We all ordered burgers, and they were hearty and filling. I chose The Malibu, and the fried chicken cutlet was hot and crispy, with everything tasting fresh and made to order. Overall, this was a solid spot to refuel after hiking, and I'd happily return to this place when I visit Banff again!

I think I just don't like Poutine (too many competing flavors and textures)…read more But overall, I can't knock Banff Poutine as a business. Friendly guys, fresh food. Small venue, so be prepared to take your food and head out, or come during off-peak hours if you plan to sit and stay.

Located on the first floor of the food court in the Cascade Shops, I stopped by around 2 PM for a…read morequick bite. I originally wanted to order the poke bowl, but they told me they no longer sell it, even though it's still listed on the menu. I then tried ordering the 8-piece Cali Crunch Roll, but they only had a limited selection of rolls left, so I ended up getting the 4-piece California Roll instead. Unfortunately, the California Roll had barely any filling, which was disappointing. It was still edible, but nothing memorable, and not the best sushi I've had.

They are what my wife chose for lunch because she was tired of all the burgers she had during our road trip. It's typical mall Japanese food with teriyaki beef and/or chicken and basic sushi rolls.

The gal stationed outside the door was very friendly and our waiter was nice enough but not terribly attentive. Tacos were fine. The guac tasted like the store bought over blended kind and the Esquites- which I ordered without reading description because it's always a corn dish- don't make my mistake because it had that over blended guac on top of refried beans and a light sprinkling of corn.

Thing is we arrived pretty late. Close to midnight. Me and my daughter walked to town, about 5-10 minutes away from our hotel. A few places were still open, which was nice. After checking out a few places, we decided to check out Aardvark. Location - It's in the town of Banff. It's right off of the main street. Walkable from a lot of the hotels in the area. Food - The food is good. It was freshly made. We got one pepperoni, one cheese, and poutine. The pizza had enough grease, but it's not greasy. The dough was cooked properly. It was crispy outside and chewey inside. The flavor on the pizza and poutine was good. I did not get food poisoning. Service/Staff - Good service. Orders were taken promptly and food came out on a timely manner. Staff were friendly. Vibe - The place had a fun and bright vibe. Pizza by the slice was on display. There's not really a place to sit. It's pretty much a "come in and grab" type of place. It was cool. People were still coming in to buy slices. Would I go back? Yes, I would. It's specially nice that they are open super late. I hope they stay the same.
