The Butternut Tree is a 62 seat Canadian restaurant overlooking the river valley and Alberta Legislature. The wall-to-wall picture windows offer an incredible view for connecting the customer to the natural landscape of Canada.

We are focusing on offering genuine hospitality while offering the customer a journey to explore the high-quality and incredible diversity of products from our native landscape.

At The Butternut Tree our focus is to explore the corners of Canada discovering new and exciting ingredients to define our cuisine as Canadian.

For over a year leading up to the opening we worked with suppliers, producers and growers from every province and territory of our nation, sourcing responsibly from passionate producers.

By going back to our roots and starting from scratch there are no limits for replacing global sources of sweet, sour, bitter, salty with unique and unexpected ingredients from our home and native land.

Chef and owner Scott Downey has spent the last 10 years exploring the reaches of the globe expanding his culinary knowledge to bring it back home.

Starting his career on Granville Island in Vancouver, then moving on to work in New York and Copenhagen, Denmark.

Chef Downey has been formally trained at the Culinary Institute of America and then went to be mentored under Daniel Boulud, in New York, at his 3-Michelin Star Restaurant Daniel and under Rene Redzepi, in Copenhagen, at world-renowned restaurant Noma.

At The Butternut Tree all aspects of this training and education will be implemented within our service and execution.

At this time The Butternut Tree is open for dinner service Wednesday to Saturday and brunch service every Saturday & Sunday.

We also host a wide variety of events and weddings.
