Party of 12 for a 6th birthday celebration. The service was outstanding from the time we arrived to the splitting of the bill🙏our party are all Aussies and we love a good time. The food was amazing and we all started with breads and then...onto mains with desserts finishing. Top notch indeed. The drinks of bees, spirits, cocktails and others were great and service again outstanding. Definitely a recommendation. A huge shot out to our waitersMore

Good choice for somewhere to eat in Whistler. I had a very tasty salmon fillet. Prompt service and service charge of 18% pre tax automatically added to the bill.

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and our server, Mike, was excellent! In fact, our 11-year-old nephew said that if he had brought his own money he would leave Mike a tip, too. So we had to submit this review, even if it was just to...give Mike a special shout-out :).More

I have been there on many occasions over the years, mostly business related, and it always was outstanding. I usually recommended to everyone that goes to Whistler. I was in a golf trip to Whistler and decided to take my wife and daughter for dinner...this last Saturday. To my dismay, the whole experience was mediocre at best. Even the famous short rib wasn’t very good. What happened? Has this become a tourist trap? On a positive note the specialty drinks were very good. Watch for the double vodka cranberry a whopping $44….lol. I am not sure that I can recommend this restaurant again.More

This tops my worst ever restaurant meal in years - can’t recall when I’ve had worse. We were seated in the “attic” - a small, dark room with low ceilings and stifling heat. Our waited told us this was b/c we didn’t have a reservation...but as we were in line prior to opening, we heard others talking about how they didn’t have reservations…none of them ended up seated in the attic…maybe as well have been a dungeon. When I mentioned this to the server, I then overheard him telling the bartender about me - how difficult I am, even my family things so, etc. It’s difficult to enjoy your meal when the staff are talking about you thinking you can’t hear. That set the tone - but the food made it worse. Best part of the meal was the bread…oh, and cocktail was good. The prawn small plate was undercooked and drenched in some weird green sauce. My stuff poblano was filled with rice, potato chunks, corn, and more rice…pepper itself was soggy and tasted like eggplant. The rest of the dish was a pile of you guessed it, more flavourless rice. My husbands meal was “okay” - well, the meat was - although it’s meant to be melt in your mouth - more like tough and chewy. But the veggies - wow - soggy, overcooked, and cold…I’m pretty sure they’re frozen and/precooked…same with the pepper. I get making them in advance but the dish was no doubt microwaved. Unfortunate thing, my husband has taken countless clients there over the year, as well as his team from work, (he’s there maybe twice a year on average), and we were both looking forward to a nice meal after a busy, fun day. We won’t be back…and he won’t be taking people back again. Hope they stop resting on their laurels, prior rep, and transient guests…doubt locals are eating there. PS - the photos show my husbands mushy veggies - uneaten, the rice left on my plate after eating the poblano, and a photo of someone else’s poblano they posted a few years back - mine didn’t look like that!More

Superb cocktails, great food, top quality service and good value for money. We had a lovely dinner for 4, sharing 4 starters and two mains which was more than enough.

Excellent service, amazing food and great atmosphere. Chose this restaurant based on TA reviews and it did not disappoint. As a party of 4 adults and 3 children there was something to suit everyone but a particularly good kids menu. Would definitely recommend and return...if visiting againMore

The food is excellent for a reasonable price. Good selection to choose from. Service is excellent. Needs to count the steps from the street level to reach 21.

Had dinner with the entire family on Thursday July 27th. We were very disappointed with three out of five dishes. The Tiger Shrimp and scallops were way overcooked ( scallops turned rubbery), rice slightly uncooked and too spicy. The Pasta with Seafood was tasteless but...the service was impeccable by Jake ! Would not patronize again in the near future when visiting Whistler ! All of you foodie diners should consider to going to Rimrock Cafe, The Keg Steak House or Table Nineteen at Jack Niklaus Golf Course !More

Had dinner here last night with the family (5 adults). Server was fantastic (Nicole I think?) and had great advice and food was amazing. Started with cocktails, shared a few small plates (fried chicken, goat cheese and olives) and incredible Summer Salad, then shared large...plates of ling cod, ribeye & stuffed poblano pepper. Oh, and another fried chicken small plate for dessert! We had a wonderful evening with excellent food!More

We had reservations. We got there right when they opened and there was a long line of people waiting who didn’t have reservations. Some of them got in, but I’m not sure about everyone.
