What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Timberwolf Pizza & Pasta Cafe is frequently praised for its delicious pizzas and comforting pasta dishes, making it a popular choice within the Lake Louise Inn. While many enjoy the cozy ambiance and friendly service, some diners have experienced long wait times and occasional issues with food preparation.
"Most amazing pizza ever!! We loved it so much we came back 2 days later. We also had pasta and several desserts which were delicious as well. Our servers each time were wonderful (Matthew and Morgane). You may have a wait to be seated around dinner time but it is SO worth it. We will be back on our next trip!!"

"Solid two star experience. Hundreds of rooms at this hotel, and despite having two restaurants on-site (Legends is the other), they only have one open for dinner they do not accept reservations. So, after waking up the stairs to the restaurant, which have entire families sitting on the stairs waiting for a seat, we obtained a buzzer, and waited over an hour for a seat. We ordered drinks and a pizza. The drink came less than full and not cold and the pizza came burned (see pics). Gains one star back because the unburned pizza was acceptable. Feels like the only reason this restaurant is still here is because people don't have any other options. Bring your own food and heat it on the dashboard of your car - it will be faster, better, and cheaper. Seriously."

"A Hidden Gem for Pizza and Pasta Lovers!
I had the pleasure of dining at Timberwolf Pizza & Pasta, and I must say—it exceeded expectations in every way.
🍕 Pizza – The wood-fired chicken pizza was a standout. With its perfectly blistered crust, generous chunks of juicy chicken, fresh basil, and gooey melted cheese, each bite felt like a cozy, flavorful embrace. The sauce had just the right tang and depth to tie everything together beautifully.
🍝 Ravioli – The ravioli was rich and indulgent, enveloped in a creamy sauce with a hint of spice and herbs that balanced the dish impeccably. Fresh, comforting, and satisfying.
🍰 Dessert – We ended the meal with a mini cheesecake topped with vibrant berries and drizzled in a berry coulis. Not only was it plated like a piece of art, but it also delivered on taste—refreshingly tart with just enough sweetness.
🏡 Ambience – The restaurant has a warm, rustic charm with wooden interiors, modern chandeliers, and a welcoming atmosphere. It’s the kind of place that feels like a treat but still lets you unwind.
💧 Service & Presentation – Everything was served with care, from the artisan-style plating to the attentiveness of the staff. It’s clear that quality is a priority here.
Highly recommend this spot if you're in the area—perfect for a relaxed date night, family dinner, or a cozy solo meal with good food and good vibes."

The one upstairs is Timberwolf Pizza & Pasta Cafe - it has good pasta, and is reasonably casual without being sloppy. The one downstairs is Legends, which has more upscale food. We did not eat there, but did eat at Timberwolf, and enjoyed it.
Travel Guide to Banff, Canada
Located in Lake Louise within the Lake Louise Inn hotel, this restaurant offers Italian-style dishes, pizza, and a great wine and drink list. I had a special ravioli with asparagus, cherry tomatoes, spinach, and it was absolutely delicious. The service was a bit chaotic as they were really busy, but my waiter was super nice and even offered a complimentary dessert.
