Easily the best patio in town, I always bring guests to Fort McMurray here to show off the natural beauty. Food is always great, killer reuben sandwich and love the peanut butter burger. Friendly staff who take the time to get to know you, too!
This place is gorgeous. The covered patio is stunning. Service fantastic, drinks are good prices are reasonable but the only downfall was the food. Small portions for the price and subpar quality. I will definitely go back for drinks!
We had an incredible dinner last night. It was the Chef's Menu especially prepared by Chef Darwin for our 50th wedding anniversary. We've eaten there before off their regular menu and always enjoyed our dinners. We will come back.
The restaurant is nice, patio is great on a warm day, and service is friendly. The food is okay, the menu has a lot of unique items that they don't always pull off. Breakfast/ brunch is good, but the execution of the main menu is underwhelming
Unfortunately, my experience at this restaurant was less than satisfactory. We opted to sit on the patio as the restaurant was full and anticipated that our food/drinks would take some time. However, the wait for both food and drinks was exceptionally long. We waited nearly two hours for our food to make it to our table. By that point, the table who was sat after us had already received their meals. Our server's comments about the kitchen's inefficiency were unprofessional and did not alleviate the frustration of the wait. When our meals finally arrived, my partner's order was incorrect, and my salad had no dressing. Until the restaurant resolves its staffing issues and improves service, I would advise saving your money and dining elsewhere.
Amazing place and amazing food normally but my last visit we spent about 300$ for my family and the food was all messed up. Constantly had to Correct the orders and when they messed up my sons salmon order they asked us if they could reuse the fish from the incorrect order. It was my wife’s birthday and from my last visit the food was not on par! It’s an expensive restaurant and the food should reflect that.
Wonderful Birthday Dinner for the Wife. Kylie was awesome! Thanks for making it a great dinner. Oysters first were fantastic, then the Jalapeño poppers were amazing. The steak was cooked to perfection. The cheese cake was an awesome twist to cheesecake. Definitely recommend!
Wicked ambience, dine-in & patio set up on point. An army of great folks work here. Our server was kind, and quick. It was our first time, she took the time to explain the best items, specials and so on. Food was amazing & service was great. Definately recommend n ill be back here soon.
food is subpar but the view if you sit out on the patio is really great! worth getting drinks and sitting outside, not worth anything else.
Ok, I saw a bear. 10/10 before even the food got there. Good was good, patio area was great, view was lovely! Also, did I mention the bear? Right by the 18th green.
Beautiful outdoor seating area with golf course view! Excellent service and great food.
Great restaurant! Love the food and the menu! So much variety! Amazing staff and welcoming atmosphere!
Nice selection on the menu....staff are pleasant and location is great.
Food is extremely bland no flavor, and ridiculously overpriced I got a bacon cheeseburger with Caesar salad my wife got a salad with salmon and a drink and it was $75 not including tip. Food : 1/5
The prices keep going higher and the quality keeps getting lower. I used to love this place but I don t think I will go back again.
Very positive experience
Went for dinner last night and we got right in. Unfortunately we sat for almost 2 hours without getting our order eventually giving up and leaving without eating. Staff was very pleasant but had obviously been through it with such long lead times on there tables. Drinks were comped and I have eaten there before without issue. I would suggest waiting a few weeks until they get the kitchen staff trained up.
Loud and echoey, generous portions, food pretty good.
Drink of the day was a blueberry mojito, was amazing. The fries have that delicious crispy batter and were soo good too.
Very peaceful great service decent food
Has a official training at this place, beautiful spot for golfing. Food was really good. Ambience and service was very good.
Parking: Great food. Awesome appetizer selection Food
Beautiful patio and excellent service!
Vegetarian options: There are a couple good veggie options. Nachos, Teriyaki Rice bowl, a couple others, not bad on a menu of 20 things tops. Dietary restrictions: I am a Piscatarian (I eat fish), there is good seafood, and a couple good options for vegetarians. Parking: Lots of spots, never full really. Kid-friendliness: Hey, its a golf club, kids always welcome. Wheelchair accessibility: Clubhouse is accessible.
Brunch here is so amazing and the patio is the best in the city! Favorite summer spot to eat.
Great Service! Great Food! Fair Prices!
Nice location, food was disappointing. Had the fish and chips wouldn t try again.
Great food and service
The food and service was good, nothing to rave about however. One thing our group noticed is that their alcohol is very watered down. I m 100lbs soaking wet and not a big drinker. We all went on an empty stomach and ordered three doubles before dinner. My boyfriend noticed that the drinks tasted watered down and we realized none of us felt any effects of the alcohol. I asked for a shot of vodka to test the theory and for the first time in my life, never needed a chaser because I usually can t even handle a shot. We ordered beer that tastes American as well The view and patio are awesome though and it s a beautiful restaurant. They should have music on the patio though, in my opinion.
Food was way overpriced. Ordered prawn salad. Got ichi ban noodles and rubber.
Great atmosphere, service, and food! Ordered the seafood spaghettini and it was delicious.
Monday evening, first visit, excellent all around. Food was terrific, service outstanding. Although the restaurant was very quiet we received just the right amount of attention. The half priced wings (Monday special) were very, very good. And do try their specialty pickle Caesar !
Food was delicious and staff were super friendly. New fav place to eat in town!
appetizers were delicious, mains were absolutely terrible, I had a chicken sandwich and a soup. the chicken wouldn t even stay on the bread there was too much sauce it kept sliding off, and i m pretty sure the cook poured a whole bottle of hot sauce in the soup, couldn t even stomach it. service wasn t great either
The bear and buffalo is actually a really great restaurant, even if youre not going golfing! I found their food to be simple with nice quality ingredients. I would recommend it to someone looking for quality food. Ps, I would say that they have the #2 chicken burger in fort Mac. It was beautifully cooked with a nice bun and toppings, but was relatively plain.
Parking:
the area is beautiful but I find the food average
Had lunch here the other day. We had a table outside which was a beautiful on their patio. The service was great and the food was amazing! Think we may be addicted to their fries. Will be back again
We had an outstanding experience here last night. Food, service, vibe all 10/10. It was very busy when we arrived, but we decided to stay, and Im so glad we did. Our server was Jane, she was attentive, kind, humerous and just an all around Gem. Despite the craziness, all the staff were smiling, finding time to make our 1 year old smile and giggle, and genuinely making sure to give the best experience to all their tables. The head chef came out at one point and chatted with our son, who was just over the moon from all the attention. I have never been someplace where it is that busy and had such an amazing experience. Not to mention the food was to die for. Our son had fish and chips, we had bruschetta to start and then we had beef dip and the short ribs. This is now our favourite place in Fort McMurray and we will definitely be back on the regular. Thankyou for making our night so wonderful Bear and Buffalo!!
Great service, fast, and cheerful employees!
Beautiful place to eat, the staff are amazing and the location is wonderful
