These are all great and you can't go wrong The fried goat cheese was good. The bread was great. We got the kids cheese pizza. =pass on this. It tastes like a cheap frozen pizza. My kid just ate the bread. The bread is good. Comes as an order on its own ($7 a bit pricey) or with the goat cheese The bacon wrapped filet bites were not good. Overcooked and smaller than expected. But if they were good the size would be fine. The ginger pork was way overcooked, and dry and flavor was flat.

If you can, go up to the atic where it's a bit more quiet and you can look down a the meals being served to see what looks tastiest to you - only problem is you might not be able to decide what you'd like!

My favorite restaurant in Whistler; I usually make it in a few times every ski season and it's…read morealways excellent. They keep the menu fresh by occasionally rotating presentation or preparation, or just adding new items. Staff are always super friendly and helpful. One reviewer called it "cozy" - that fits (OK, pun intended). While it can feel quiet/slow, do not always expect that...especially on holiday weekends, I've seen this place very busy. Earlier this year I decided to try the cheeseburger. I come here for the fancy food, but for some reason I was in a burger mood. Lol OMG this thing is amazing! One bite and it made it to my "favorite dishes of all time" list. I don't remember signing my soul to the devil, but this witchcraft is too good to not have some hidden cost. I'm giving the staff a "what the hell is this???" look and they just grin back at me. "It's good, isn't it?" Hell yes. Just go.

You know a steakhouse is doing something right when you don't order the steak…read more Dinner at Hy's Steakhouse was outstanding from start to finish. The service was polished, the atmosphere was classic and upscale without feeling stuffy, and every detail felt intentional. Plot twist: I skipped the steak. The fish was absolutely phenomenal--perfectly cooked, incredibly fresh, and easily one of the best seafood dishes I've had in a long time. My table may have questioned my decision at a steakhouse, but one bite and I knew I made the right call.

The food is always amazing here and Chris, at the bar, is an incredible host! Loved it!read more

We ended up at Araxi thanks to their $45 four course special, and thank goodness for that, because…read morewe probably never would've gone otherwise. This place has always felt like one of those "special occasion only" restaurants that are usually out of reach. The special menu was such a steal and so wonderful!!! Every course came out looking delightful, from the bright, delicate starters to the beautifully cooked mains to desserts that made us slow down just to savor the moment. I didn't want the food to stop flowing. Service was warm without being stuffy, the vibe was lively but still intimate, and the whole night felt like we'd accidentally unlocked a VIP experience. If you've ever walked past Araxi thinking "maybe someday," this is your sign. Go when they're running the special during spring ski season!

Araxi did not disappoint, though I'm disappointed in myself for missing their apres deal with a discounted fondue using cave aged gruyere! Definitely reserve ahead of time during peak season. They start you with fresh herbed ciabatta and sourdough with olive oil and butter, and both breads were great but especially so for our hungry kids. They had the most perfectly sharpened quality colored pencils and a coloring/activity sheet for the kids, which was much appreciated! Drinks: - The Cure: talisker 10, pineapple, mezcal float - Fig Jam: fig infused mezcal, apple cider, fig jam, spices - great to start They also had a good wine list, and they even had some local wines by the half bottle, which was a nice option, so we got a local Pinot. Food: - Oysters: island tide and kusshi, served with traditional mignonette and horseradish - Ricotta gnocchi: with wild mushrooms, cheesy lemon fonduta, crispy sage - a smaller portion but good for sharing as an appetizer - Pacific crab and matane shrimp cake: no fillers, perfectly seared, with a great local pear and avocado salsa verde - Seared scallops: perfectly seated, with local sunchokes, crispy prosciutto, grilled bok choy, xharred pepper romesco - Ora king salmon: similar to the kids' one but dressed up, with roasted beats, beet and ginger salsa, goat cheese arancini - House made bucatini: mentaiko style with spicy cod roe, humobldt squid, breadcrumbs. This had a nice kick, and the pasta texture was great - Kids' fish: seared salmon with risotto and bok choy - a generous portion of perfectly seared salmon! Dessert: - Valrhona chocolate fondant: warm gooey chocolate cake with tahitian vanilla bean ice cream and chocolate crisps Service was great and very kid friendly (including copper mule cups for their water!). We ordered a lot of food for 2 adults and 2 young kids, but everything was so great - every item was a hit. There's a reason why we keep coming back to Araxi!

When you walk in you're promptly greeted by the hosts. We came mid week and tried their spring menu which was 4 courses for 33 before tax and tip. The server was prompt and attentive with a sincere, friendly demeanour. They were out of the tomato soup so we got the chowder and some chips and salsa (not pictured). Both were so delicious. The chips were ultra thick and reminded me of eating bugles as a kid, but way higher class. The salmon and chicken were way larger portions than we had expect , and done to perfection. Chicken is a little spicy but this is the type of service and cooking I liiiiive for! If you've ever had any other Earls scratch that out of your mind because when you come here, this is literally the place to be. Sticky toffee pudding also wonderful. It's not like a pudding more like a mini chocolate cake with toffee, vanilla ice cream and this almond florentine style cookie. Recommend to anyone even vegetarian / vegan as they have a plentiful plant based menu as well. This place is vibes for friends, dates, or a family dinner.

But man this was garbage. She then started arguing with my girlfriend and saying the glass wasn't there. And made a face to the staff about it. Our server stayed there and made sure she got it all it wasn't for us. But what if a kid stepped on it. All I will say it earls do better.

The…read morefour-course meal was presented beautifully, and the staff provided some of the best service I've ever experienced. That part really cannot be stressed enough. The sourdough bread was excellent, the salad and soup of the day were both good, and dessert was excellent. I had planned to add scallops to my risotto based on the server's suggestion, but they were out of scallops, so I added prawns instead, which were very good. The only reason this is more of a 4.5-star experience for me is the noise level. The acoustics made the restaurant very, very loud, and we could hardly talk during our meal. I found myself eager to finish simply so we could get out of the noise. Everything else was wonderful, and I will click 5 stars because the food, presentation, and service absolutely deserve it. Sadly, I'm not likely to return because of the loud environment, but for guests who aren't bothered by noise, Wild Blue offers a truly lovely dining experience.

I cannot say enough good things about this place! But I'll try!…read more1. Atmosphere/Ambience: we sat on the patio which was gorgeous. Soft lighting, nice landscaping, peaceful. The inside looked very cool in a completely different way. It was cozy but modern, not in a rustic way. I can imagine how nice it would be in winter! 2. Food & Drink: literally no notes. Love how the cocktails are organized by flavor profile. My husband and I loved what we ordered. We also loved all the food we ordered, but the seafood tower is a must have, as well as the chocolate lava cake! 3. Service: top notch! Our server gave us great recommendations, and was attentive without rushing us. We were celebrating our anniversary and the manager brought out glasses of champagne for us. Would highly recommend for a special occasion!

Great restaurant in a great hotel! Loved the buffet that they offer to their guests everyday…read more Although we were a little unlucky to have hit the closures for one day but we got a good compensation in the form of skillet breakfast. Starting with the buffet, it was vast with varieties of breads, live omelet counter, a chocolate fountain (every kid's AND adult's dream breakfast item!), fruits, roasted veggies, pancakes, salad bar, hummus, even dumplings! mini burritos, the quintessential sausage, eggs, pastries etc. The spinach feta danish and the mini burrito really stood out The quantity was awesome, taste was good too although I would not say top notch. Coming to the skillet breakfast in lieu of the buffet contained, eggs, potatoes, beautifully buttered and toasted sourdough, tomato, hashbrown, avocado, chicken sausage, chocolate croissant, latte, all of which was awesome with the exception of the sausage which was average. The quantity of the food was not a lot since we were hungry within hours whereas the buffet food was so much that we did not need to eat till dinner! The service was top notch, great ambience with the mountain view, a fireplace, pretty seating.
