Pacini's menu is a succession of dishes, each one as appetizing as another, including some truly unique and exclusive foods. With no artificial trans fats, they are naturally exceptional. There are pasta dishes for every taste, always cooked al dente, pizzas cooked according to a specific Pacini process that prevent the emergence of artificial trans fats, tender and delicious grills, and extraordinary desserts. Buon appetito!

    Our ‘go to’ restaurant when we’re in Banff. Love their free bread bar although it wasn’t working well when there (Bread wouldn’t toast). Tables are so tightly arranged you might as well just sit with the other families as you could hear every table conversation. No music and no privacy,even though upstairs table section were not even in use. Restaurant was only half full on New Year’s Eve. Long wait for two drinks (15 mins) from the bar and not the best quality or presentation ( raspberry mojito and blue sangria), but thankfully the food came out quickly. Overall food was tasty but a bit bland. Tried the pesto chicken pizza, linguine Alfredo and the ravioli. I’ve had much better quality and tastier food there over the years. Skip the dolce bite size deserts in a jar ( still frozen) and just order the apple crisp.

    The food was nice, however the service was very rushed. Our main courses were ready the minute we finished our starters then we weren’t asked if we wanted dessert or more drinks, she just asked if we wanted the bill. Overall we were in and out in an hour! We wouldn’t return and wouldn’t recommend eating here.

    I enjoyed the food. I would have liked a little thought about the timing of the food being served.

    recently visited this restaurant and unfortunately, it didn’t live up to expectations. We ordered the Mille-Feuilles Lasagna with Shrimps, which was a huge letdown. It had only a few strands of noodles and a few shrimp pieces, all drowned in a heavy cheese sauce. It felt more like a very saucy, kid’s plate of noodles rather than a proper lasagna. We also tried the pesto and goat cheese pizza, which was decent but nothing special. Given the high prices, I was expecting much better quality overall. Another issue was with the parking. The restaurant’s website advertises free outdoor parking, but when I called to inquire, I was told there’s no free parking directly outside.

    Late booking for family after a day acclimating to Banff. Friendly professional staff - ready to recommend off the menu and checked regularly with us for water / drinks refills and chatted about local points of interest. Good value and loved the bread bar ….

    Overall not a great experience. It took our server quite some time to come to the table. Food came pretty quick once we ordered, but the kids crepes were luke warm and their hot chocolates (which we ordered right away) came half way through their food being done.
