    We came to this restaurant for brunch, and it was wonderful, a delightful taste of Quebec in the Canadian Rockies - the service was friendly and efficient, the atmosphere warm and welcoming - would recommend it highly

    The young waitress that we had did not no have any personality for 50 plus women. She was all about the men coming in and then she was helpful. The food was good and I tried this place the next day when it wasn’t as busy and service was excellent.

    Chez Francois was a lovely dining experience. The service was top notch and the food was a welcoming experience. This was my wife’s and I first restaurant we stopped at in Canada and I’m so glad we did. The location was easy to find and the menu had a little bit of everything. I would highly recommend the poutine!
