Renzo's Ristorante
This ‘ristorante’ is one of Canmore’s best kept secrets. Their reasonably priced blend of Mediterranean and Canadian cuisine (including signature preparations of AAA Sterling Silver beef and thin crust pizzas) caters to both local and international clientele. The Italian Nordic ski team made this their headquarters during the 2010 Biathlon World Cup. The ambiance is relaxing, and a fireplace and couch seating options contribute to the warm atmosphere. There’s a cozy lounge with big screen sports, wireless internet and private function rooms. Sunday buffet brunch is especially popular.
