We had our reception in the private room at Murietta's and it couldn't have turned out better. The service was top notch, the food and drinks were great and it was perfect for our group of 46 people. There was plenty of room for all of us during dinner and toasts, and the seamlessly moved the tables out of the way for dancing for the rest of the night. Our guests let us know repeatedly how amazing they thought the entire night was!

Exceptional service, food, and atmosphere!
From the moment I first spoke with Sophie, assistant general manager at Murrieta's, I was super excited to host the main meal here for our post-wedding celebration weekend! She let me know about the Miner's Room - a private event space that more than accommodated our group of 29 and has spectacular views of the Canadian Rockies. Even though my expectations were high - the entire experience knocked those expectations out of the park. I cannot fully put into words how much the service team of Sophie and Julian made this special moment in our lives the best it could be. Everyone in our group could not stop talking about how kind, helpful, and skilled Sophie and Julian are at tending to the various requests of so many people. The food was delicious and a good value for such high quality. The cocktails and wine were fabulous (and we tried quite a few of them!) - one of the cocktails even contained ingredients from Sophie's own garden!
We started the night as strangers, and left as friends. I would love to come back to Canmore to spend more time in the beautiful town, and of course, visit Murrieta's :) Thank you again, Julian and Sophie! You're the best.
If you are looking for a venue that showcases the beauty of the Canadian Rockies with incredible service and delicious food, Murrieta's is a great choice.

Great Food, Great View, Great Service!
I am so glad we booked at Murrieta's. The start was a bit rocky, but unlike most venues, they are a busy restaurant when they aren't making your dream wedding come true!
THE VENUE: We had our small (48 guests) wedding held in the private room. I was worried the room would feel small, cramped and not work for us, but the staff did a spectacular job arranging the tables and creating the space for a dance floor after the meal!
THE FOOD: Can I just say, every time I have eaten here I have had a good meal. But the staff went above and beyond my expectations. Its been nearly a month and our guests are STILL talking about the food. We went with the 4-course meal, everyone was served quickly and no one was left watching other people eat. The food was hot and the plates warm (hello no dry food and hot plates!). The chefs here really know what they are doing! Our guests had beef (that cut like butter - hello!), Salmon (so fresh that it literally tasted like we were ocean side) and Chicken (perfectly cooked and not dry). I can't forget the dessert Orange and Cardamon Creme Brulee - so good. I guess you all don't need every detail, but it needs to be said!
THE STAFF: Enough cannot be said about the amazing waitresses that served our guests. They were fantastic! No one ever had to wait for a drink, water top up or their food. They kept my husband and I informed on our open bar budget (we had 2 caps) and made sure as we neared it that Neal and I got the last couple drinks - perfect!
Sophie and Cody were great to deal with, answered my questions and handled last minute changes and adjustments with ease. They kept everything running smoothly up to and including our wedding day.
I'm sure I've said enough help inform you, future bride/groom. But I can say so much more. CHOOSE MURRIETA'S - You'll have an unforgettable reception!

If you don't have your reception here, you're making a mistake.
I'm going to come right out and say it - Murrieta's is simply the best place for a reception in the entire Bow Valley.
For some backstory, the restaurant was closed for two months for renovations leading up to our wedding. Naturally, this could cause some stress for a couple planning a wedding - but there was no need to worry.
Sophie, Michael and the entire Murrieta's team bent over backwards (and then some) to ensure that we weren't stressed, that everything would be in place and perfect for the reception. They were communicative throughout the entire build, gave us regular updates and helped design the reception even while juggling a whole renovation.
And boy did they deliver.
The reception was incredible. The team literally put in 24 hour days for two weeks to ensure that everything was ready and would go off without a hitch. They promised us perfection (a tall order and risky for such a project), and they delivered. There's no other way to say it - they delivered.
The food was spectacular. The new decor was luxurious, modern and tailored for us. The service was impeccable - you were never more than a quick wave away from a smiling staff member.
They made us feel like we actually owned the place. And for one spectacular night, we did.
A reception venue should make you feel like a million dollars - and Murrieta's made us feel like a billion.
Weddings are stressful, but choosing Murrieta's for yours won't be. There are lots of beautiful places in the Bow Valley and some that are much more expensive, but they simply can't hold a candle to Murrieta's.
If you want the real deal at a price that you can actually afford, look nowhere else. This place should be booked out every weekend, and I have no doubt that they will be. And they deserve it.
TL:DR - 100/10. Simply the best. Thanks for everything Sophie and the team!

Very pleased
Overall an excellent experience. The management were incredibly accommodating with special requests, the staff on the evening were friendly, professional and quick. A couple of small hiccups in terms of execution (handing out drinks for a toast), but nothing major. Very happy with how the evening unfolded and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this venue to anyone looking for an intimate and classy event.
