Owners Trudy Allan and Kathy Johnson like to think that Coyotes is a reflection of their personal philosophies and lifestyles. Choosing to live and play in this majestic mountain setting sets the basis for a healthy and interesting restaurant concept.
Opened in 1993, Coyotes uniqueness comes from our dedication to whole food and its roll in a healthy lifestyle. Living in the mountains brings an appreciation for life and living it to its fullest. Utilizing foods closest to their natural states, before processing and refining them, ensures that we get the most nourishment we can from them. Our goal at Coyotes is to create great tasting food that is good for you.
We chose Southwestern/Mediterranean cuisine because of their fresh fruits, vegetables, chiles, pastas and whole grains. As we evolve we have adopted a slight cross cultural food fusion, finding fresh ingredient cooking prevalent in other parts of the world. We encourage our chefs’ individual talents to create new, eclectic, fresh food with a touch of class.
We pride ourselves in making customers feel welcome and important. It gives us pleasure to give people a positive experience no matter whether it’s during the busy hustle and bustle of breakfast and lunch or the more intimate dining in the evening. Value oriented meals, made from scratch and served in a personal manner is the Coyotes Difference.

With a passion for great food, Lucas studied and graduated (1998) from the prestigious Culinary Institute of Canada which is regarded by many as the premiere culinary school in Canada. Students are drawn from around the world to the Institute, where they have the opportunity to enjoy the unique cultural experience of Prince Edward Island and Atlantic Canada while at the same time developing the necessary skills to launch a successful culinary career. It was here that Lucas was able to learn the meaning of the phrase “Cooks know how to cook, Chef’s know why they cook.” As a father and athlete Lucas brings his devotion to health & well being to his professional training and experience.
