Had a genuinely fantastic meal here and it punches above its weight class as a lobby bar. Every dish we ordered was fantastic and I couldn't complain about any of them. Quick and friendly service. No wait for an early dinner.

Had an awesome time at Black Tail Bar! The food was super tasty—those sliders were next level. The bartender was fun and made some great drinks. Huge shoutout to our server, Howard—he was amazing! Super attentive and really made my 40th birthday dinner special. Thanks for making it such a great night!

The outdoor patio is amazing. After hiking in the area we needed a couple two tree beverages and they didn't disappoint.

My husband and I ate here with our toddler and 3 month old in tow.
Food was great we had potato wrapped jumbo shrimp, wings and truffle fries to start. Then had the New York strip and lobster Mac and cheese. Everything was so good and came fresh from the kitchen.
What made our experience amazing was our server Jacob. Super friendly, quick and efficient check-ins with us, so attentive and communicated every step of the way through our meal. Was extremely on top of the fact that we were sitting for a meal with two little kids and wanted to make sure everything was timely.
If you want to ensure a great experience here, ask for Jacob!

I was traveling solo so I sat and had a delicious starter from here which was also very filling. My server was excellent and I would definitely recommend stopping by here for a bite to eat.

The beet salad is the smallest I've ever seen for $20. I wish the server told us this when we said we wanted to share it. However, the fries were a better portion.
The mid quality of food does not warrant the high prices and insect sized portions.
Nearby Woody's bar is so much better just go there instead.

Cute, cozy bar. Cocktails are fabulous and a good beer list. Witnessed some uncomfortable health code violations like staff mopping the floor with their clothing, trays dropped and picked up with feet then put away, and my server blew on my drink as part of the presentation. They also need to vacuum crumbs out of their bar stools. Watching things become grosser and grosser left us feeling icky at the end of our meal. Bummer!
Great spot! We got the angus burger and Cajun chicken sliders. Standards were low going in as it is a lobby bar, but it’s amazing! Good service and fairly priced for the location. We will definitely come back!

We come to kananaskis lodge every year around Christmas and this year we went to the blacktail bar and had Lauren as our waitress! She was wonderful. She was kind and attentive and we had an awesome experience! We will be back soon!

We decided to eat here since it was right after finishing the Nordic Spa and we were hungry. The service was ok not not excellent considering it’s a very pricey hotel. The food was good for the most part except the lobster Mac and cheese was the most bland from all of them. The mussels portugués style were good and the sliders and wings were good as were the truffle fries. It’s convenient as they’re right there but wouldn’t rave about them.

In this quick review I’ll focus only on the drinks. I didn’t have a chance to try the food.
Getting the “correct” martini mix is so difficult especially with so many different ideas on what makes the perfect martini.
I prefer an extra dry non dirty martini. As simple as that sounds, rarely is it ever to my taste.
I don’t know the name of my bartender however, she nailed each martini based on my description. That gets a five stars in my books.
