“ We dined here for the first time for their new years eve menu. The ambience was great and it was beautifully decorated for Christmas. The staff gave us a choice of where to sit which was a nice touch. We did get a couple of the wine pairings with the meal, and they were expertly paired! The meal itself was delicious and offered a nice variety of flavors with each course. Very well done. The service was fantastic and all the staff were very attentive. We will definitely be back in the summer to check out the view once the lake is thawed, and to enjoy another meal. ”
“ Beautiful restaurant with amazing service. My partner and I decided to try the lakehouse for our anniversary, and we were very glad we did. The team members are all super friendly, attentive, and prompt. We were seated by the window which had a stunning view (especially at sunset). The appetizers are amazing, especially the oysters and oxtail. Would definitely recommend! ”
“ We recently held a private dinner event here and the service was outstanding. Combined with the view, this place couldn’t have been better. Staff were top notch across the board. I had the steak which was phenomenal. They also have vegan options. Come check it out and book for your large parties. Thanks Lake House! ”
“ It's one of the most romantic restaurants in Calgary, offering great seasonal food. The staff are very friendly and happily serving. With a great lake view and elegant interior design, we were served by friendly staff and enjoyed great food. We ordered Grilled Char, Grilled Scallops, and Ribeye followed by a dessert, Chocolate Cake. The sauces on the dishes were excellent with great flavors. There is an elevator for seniors and people with disabilities, but we needed to read the instructions carefully to start and stop it. Very interesting... ”
“ Our friend had a wedding here back in September, 2024. They changed the setup in between the ceremony and lunch fairly efficiently. During the setup, guests could go to the patio or have a walk around the facility. Food was surprisingly good. Service was excellent. We had to leave a bit early to catch our flight and they could pack our desserts for us to go! Would love to come back for lunch in the future. ”
“ I’ve always wanted try the Lake House as it’s one of Calgarys stalwarts in the fine dining scene. (Alberta’s version of fine dining anyway) The restaurant is lovely with the views of the lake and the Alberta themed decor with the antler fixtures. The service was friendly and efficient by both the hostess and the server I ordered the Quiche which came with the daily soup, mixed greens or house cut fries. Unfortunately the soup of the day was corn chowder which is the one soup I’m not fond of so I went with the fries. The quiche was just okay. Mushroom, ham and onion but it was missing something. Like the salt of the ham wasn’t coming through or it needed more onion. I mostly tasted jello-y mushrooms. I felt it needed some seasoning. I also think half the fries with some of the greens would have made it more complete. The tomato jam the quiche was sat upon was tasty and the fries were really good with the house made ketchup The wine I chose from the wine by the glass menu was one of the best whites I’ve had. Brigaldara Overall I would go again but choose something else ”
“ Went to The Lake House with my wife for our wedding anniversary yesterday. Really loved the ambiance and the lake side view(though frozen, sure summer would be wonderful). We were attended to by Morgan, who was warm and courteous. The salmon and steak were lovely. We totally enjoyed it. ”
