About Us

A peaceful cabin in the woods and only 1km from town, Tekarra Restaurant has been impressing guests from around the world with a fine dining experience since 1952. Mike and Cyndi Day, owners of Evil Dave's Grill, are grateful to host diners in this iconic Canadian Rockies restaurant. They love how the authentic, rustic character of the pine cabin showcases Executive Chef Jean Louis Espenel's food-forward, classically-rooted, menu. 

Imagine walking your Moscow Mule out to the ridge to watch the Athabasca River roll by while we prepare your dinner. You eat and wildlife gaze at the same time. Later you tuck into dessert as the cabin lights glow warm, the stars peak through the pines, and the Rocky Mountains transform into a purple skyline as the sun sets. Your dining experience is complete.
