    Great service but the food is average at best. We went to their breakfast buffet. On a positive note their fruit was very fresh!
    Crave Mountain GrillResponded 6 days ago
    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the service and the freshness of our fruit—that’s something we take pride in! We’re sorry to hear that the rest of the breakfast buffet didn’t quite meet your expectations, and we appreciate your honest input as we’re always looking for ways to improve. Just so you’re aware, we’re currently closed for the season and will be reopening in Fall 2025 with refreshed offerings. In the meantime, La Terrazza is open and serving à la carte breakfast and dinner, and we’d love to welcome you there for a different dining experience. Thanks again for visiting—we hope to have the chance to impress you even more next time!

    I took my wife for Mother's Day brunch. She is a real foodie. One of the best brunches we have ever had.

    Amazing service and an impressive selection of food for the price! We live in Calgary and drove over an hour just to enjoy their Easter and Mother’s Day themed brunches—and wow, wow, wow—everything from the service to the food and atmosphere was well worth the drive. A special shoutout to the amazing manager (I didn’t catch his name) who made sure our table was well taken care of on both visits—his attentiveness and warmth didn’t go unnoticed! 100% recommend, and we’ll definitely be back for Father’s Day!
    Crave Mountain GrillResponded 6 days ago
    Thank you so much for your kind words and for making the trip from Calgary to join us for both our Easter and Mother’s Day brunches—it truly means the world to us! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and service, and we’ll be sure to pass along your appreciation to our manager and team. As a quick update, we are currently closed for the season but will be reopening in Fall 2025 with exciting offerings for the October season. In the meantime, we invite you to visit La Terrazza, which remains open and offers a wonderful à la carte breakfast and dinner experience. We can’t wait to welcome you back later this year—perhaps for another special occasion or seasonal celebration. Until then, thank you again for your support and glowing recommendation! 🌟

    Everything was excellent until my wife had a long hair in her food. 20% discount was offered but goes back on as tip.
    Crave Mountain GrillResponded on May 14, 2025
    Thank you for joining us for Mother’s Day brunch and for your kind words about the food—we're truly glad to hear it stood out. That said, we’re very sorry to hear about the hair in your wife's dish. That’s absolutely not the experience we aim to provide, especially on such a meaningful occasion. We appreciate you bringing it to our attention, and we’ll be following up with our team to ensure this doesn’t happen again. If there’s anything further we can do to make things right, please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’d love the chance to welcome you back for a flawless experience.

    Fantastic mother’s day buffet! Something for everyone and an amazing dessert ’area’ as well. It has been a while since we have been there but very glad to have come back.

    We went to the Easter Brunch which was just amazing. The live music was perfect - not too loud and very appropriate for the atmosphere. I’m very sensitive to loud atmospheres, but this was perfect. Service was excellent and the food spectacular. Thanks for an awesome experience!
