' ..... Welcome to Bluebird, a wood-fired steakhouse featuring the best of Alberta beef including your favorite classic cuts and all-day-roasted Prime rib. Bluebird is where brunch and cocktails collide into fireside lunch which glides into happy hour and then swooshes into dinner where the après begins. With the fire stoked high, we are ready for you to ski through the front door and tell us all about it. It’s always a bluebird day in our mid-century chalet.

    Our experience from making the reservation and making adjustments to the time was so easy and the hostess was very accommodating. We have been on the road and this trip is our anniversary trip celebrating our marriage. The steering was a great spot where we could view the outside as well as see the fireplace and view the kitchen. The staff had left a cheers to our anniversary card on our table, very thoughtful. Our waitress, Christine, was absolutely wonderful. She made great recommendations and made sure that my food allergies did not affect my ability to enjoy the dishes. She made sure our servers explained every dish and what was safe for me to enjoy and the other dishes that had ingredients that I was allergic to, she made sure it was deconstructed so I could still enjoy the dish and my husband could enjoy the dish with the accoutrements. The steak was perfectly cooked. My husband and I ordered it medium rare but he asked for it to be a little bit on the medium side so there was A crisp on the outside layer but still pink/red in the center. I would also like to add that the carrot cake, by far the best we have had.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our Happy Hour meal of fondue and drinks. The atmosphere is rustic with a welcoming après ski vibe. The service was prompt, efficient and professional. The food outstanding! We would highly recommend the Bluebird to anyone visiting the area. Well done!

    Review for Bluebird Restaurant I visited Bluebird Restaurant last year and had a wonderful experience—everything from the food to the service was exceptional, and it quickly became a favorite spot of mine. However, my recent visit didn’t live up to those high expectations. The French onion soup was so overly salted that it was hard to enjoy, and the cheese fondue was disappointing compared to other fondue experiences I’ve had. The texture was curdled, and the taste was off, lacking the smooth and rich flavor you’d expect from a well-made fondue. The service, while friendly, felt a bit disorganized. Empty plates were left on the table while new dishes arrived, leaving us with a cluttered and crowded dining experience. I really hope this was just an off night because Bluebird has the potential to be amazing. I’d love to see them return to the level of excellence they were known for. For now, though, it’s hard to recommend based on this visit.

    Our meal was fabulous, from the cocktails we had to start, the appetizers we ate as our main course, the glass of wine and then the key lime pie and latte to follow. Our server Johnny was fabulous and nothing was overlooked. The host was very welcoming and we enjoyed the positive vibe he set. Thanks everyone…we had a great time!
