My wife and I went there for our anniversary and it was perfect. There is plenty of good food in Banff but if you want fine dinning, go to Eden. From the moment you check in to the desert, you know you are at a very nice restaurant. My wife recently developed a food allergy and I simply cannot explain the level of effort that the staff and the chef made to accommodate. You felt as if you were the only people in the room and the staff was plesantly friendly and warm. We ended up laughing and staying much later than expected due to the wonderful staff. I would absolutely go back in the future and I highly recommend the food, staff and overall experience.

My wife and I have walked past Tzin on many occasions. We always said that we should check it out one day. So I decided that there was no better time than our wedding anniversary last night. Very cosy space. Don’t come if you don’t want to strike up a conversation with someone at the next table. The food was great. We were worried that 4 dishes wasn’t going to be enough but it was. I couldn’t even think about dessert! Service was amazing. My wife and I had a great time. Would definitely come back to try the Chef’s Choice menu.
