Northern Lights Alpine Kitchen, located at the top of Banff Gondola, offers a good selection of quality food at a reasonable price. The restaurant features floor-to-ceiling windows that provide breathtaking and captivating views of the surrounding scenery from almost all tables. Visitors can enjoy a delicious lunch or dinner with friendly, attentive service in a clean interior. The buffet-style dining includes a variety of hot entrees such as salmon, BBQ ribs, fried chicken, and meatballs, along with hot sides like roast potatoes, carrots, squash, broccoli, and cauliflower. There are also cold salads, a carving station serving brisket, a pizza and bread roll area, and a dessert shelf with mini donuts, brownies, cakes, and tarts. The interior atmosphere is excellent, with many seating options along the windows, though the restaurant tends to be busy, so reservations are recommended to avoid long waits. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and attentive, making sure orders are taken and checked for satisfaction. While the food may not be perfect, many guests find the overall experience worthwhile for the stunning views and pleasant atmosphere.
