Evertime we get there, we have great experience. The food is very good and I love the vibes. Our family loves to choose for dinner and breakfast. We would definitely return to this place. The most impressive thing is that the meal for under 7 is complimentary.

Visited for breakfast with 2 friends around 9am on a Saturday morning. They don’t take reservations for breakfast and had to wait 10mins to be seated which wasn’t bad. Service was slow after getting in though but our waiter was very polite. They have buffet everyday and I paid 31 for same, my friends ordered from the menu which was 20 each but also had so pay for coffee while the buffet included coffee. For such a lovely and pricey hotel, the food is affordable. We all enjoyed our meal and plan to be back.

Hard to beat the location - epic mountain views from the outdoor patio - the food and drinks do not disappoint. The service staff is above exceptional as well, some of the friendliest I have ever experienced. Chicken Parmesan sandwich was great, prices do incorporate the location though so bang for buck something to consider

Although I booked the wrong time and number of people, they welcomed us very kindly. Every dish was amazing and delicious. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly. At the end we got a big surprise that two kids meal free. Thank you very much for their hospitality. This is definitely a hidden gem restaurant and we will absolutely come back.

It is an excellent place to enjoy a good meal, I really like pizza here it is in the middle of the mountains in kananaskis. It is a buffet and has a wide range of food and desserts, the value per person is 45 cad. Outside there is a terrace with fire where you can roast your marshmallows for free! I really like the surroundings of the restaurant and the hotel, I really like this place

Nothing but great experience at Forte. Food was reasonably priced and delicious! Loved their croquettes and seafood linguine paired with their frozen margarita. What made the experience even better is the great service provided by Sherin. He was accommodating, informative and always have the biggest smile. Highly recommended!

We come out every few months to enjoy the hotel and Forte. The front house manager Cletus is the man. Always extremely kind and professional and takes good care of us. Servers are all super friendly as well. However, I wanted to point out that an employee was cleaning the top of the tile by the bar. This level of detail is unheard of. Most restaurants would simply ignore cleaning to that detail, but they were on a ladder taking care of it. Bravo.

After you have relaxed in the hot bubbly waters, you come down from your room and are greeted by the most convivial man, named Sherin. He is the gem of Forte. I never expect anything very special from hotel restaurants, but I was pleasantly surprised by the food here. The gnocchi Alfredo was the perfect consistency and so delicious. The rack of lamb was cooked to perfection and seasoned beautifully. I thought I had taken a picture of my beer, but I can't find it. But, Sherin assisted us with wine and beer choices and they complimented the meal in a wonderful way. Forte was formidable!
