My favourite part about this restaurant was the atmosphere! The dimmed tone of the dining room gives an upscale look while still presents an inviting and intimate feeling. The lighting really focused on the food and made the food look very appetizing—and the food was actually good too. We enjoyed the complimentary freshly baked focaccia and sourdough. The chickpea hummus had a good punch of flavour, although it’s rare to taste cumin in Italian cuisine. The beet and burrata starter was lovely and fresh, and was one of my favourites of the night! The two pastas we ordered, the pomodoro and the pesto, were both really delicious too. The pasta itself was nice and al dente, and was gorgeously coated with the sauces. It was simple but definitely with unique, elevated flavours. The only disappointments were the slow service, and the attentiveness of our main server. Not the service I expect from a restaurant of this price range. Overall a nice cozy place to enjoy drinks and for special occasions!

My bf and I had a wonderful experience last week at this restaurant to celebrate our 2nd year anniversary. The service was outstanding and the food and drinks delicious. The atmosphere and decor in that restaurant are very relaxing and perfect for a diner after a long day hiking or skiing. Highly recommend!

My favourite restaurant in Whistler is this place. The service is superior, the restaurant is beautiful with an incredible wine list.The food, every single dish is better then the one you just had so come hungry because your taste buds will love you!

One of the best fine dinning restaurant in Whistler. Conveniently located in the Village. Highly recommend for special occasions, date night etc. Good selection of wine as well.

Wonderful meal and service

High recommend coming here! The service was really great, if you like wine then be prepared for a large wine list! All the food that came out around us looked amazing, really enjoyed the time here.

Delicious food and fantastic service. For two, we shared a scallop starter and ordered one pasta each. The lobster linguine was really good, but quite spicy. The pasta portion size was quite large so we were barely able to finish. Make sure to make s reservation well in advance!

The best! On every level. Meal, service, drinks. A standout in Whistler for those who appreciate and love food. So much attention to every minute of our experience. Hostess wasn’t that nice to walk ins who wanted to try to be accommodated. A professional hostess might be helpful. :)

This busy restaurant offered to seat my son and I at the bar and having done so at other Whistler restaurants we agreed. Big mistake. We felt we were not getting the same level of service or respect at the bar and yet paid the same menu prices. Many at the bar were not eating, just drinking and very loudly at that. We felt rather than tone down the loud behaviour it was encouraged because the customers were drinking up and were unbearably obnoxious. The chicken was fine but too salty and the bolognaise pasta was a small serving for the price. Overall, a disappointment but had we been seated at a table I’m sure we would have been happier.

This was our splurge on our last night in Whistler. We didn’t have a reservation, but they were able to seat us at the bar. The food and drinks were excellent. I had the Arctic char after enjoying a couple of Empress 1908 Martinis. The wine list was extensive, and you could spend 4-digits on a bottle. We enjoyed conversation with others at the bar, and the friendly bar-tender. A memorable evening and a great way to cap off an amazing time in Whistler.
