Wonderful supper. Great service. Good value on happy hour. Out of lots of wine but that is because it has been busy. It’s very cold out and need to make sure that patio door stays consents very cold when left open. Had sausage pasta, cucumbers, salami pizza and pot de creme. All delicious!!

The service was fabulous as soon as we entered the restaurant! Food was served quickly and the food that was supposed to be served hot was hot! I had the Hunan Kung Pao with 4 hunan peppers and it was wonderful!

Very much enjoyed our experience. Manager/host was very accommodating, and was doing a fantastic job at visiting tables to check on everyone and did his best to greet everyone coming in. Waiter was very attentive and friendly. Our food was served in a timely manner, (we weren’t expecting immediate food service considering how busy it was and it is more finer dining than a fast food restaurant, be there for the experience and enjoy your time! :)),our server was quick to update us on when we would get food as well as kept drinks flowing. Our son was not overly hungry as he was not 100% that day and the manager noticed and brought him fresh bread to snack on which was a nice little touch. Will recommend this restaurant and will be dining here again when we are back in canmore this winter. Cheers to all the hardworking staff over the holiday season.

Food was fine, just a heads-up: the pizza crust was not "traditional" - still good, but unexpected. The chef had a heavy hand with the salt, but overall food was good. Will be back!!

Our family truly enjoyed our dining experience at Earl’s Dalhousie. Our table in the dining room was perfect as it allowed us the ability to enjoy a great meal without being jammed together with a lot of other tables. The service was very good as was the food quality as well.
