    Porchetta 4/5 veggies 3.5/5 cornbread 4/5
    Kayleigh W.

    Calm atmosphere compared to many of the other restaurants we were considering. The meats and sides were all visible as we walked up to order - the brisket looked tasty! We ended up ordering the porchetta and roast veggies and jalepeno cornbread to split because of the price. We found a seat and put up the number we received at the register. The food was out within 5 minutes and was plenty for the two of us. The interior pork loin of the porchetta was dry, so it was sauced with the ok original sauce. The pork belly was nice and juicy with a crispy exterior. The vegetables were cooked well but a bit too oily. We had celery root for the first time! The cornbread and honey butter were a nice sweet touch. Overall good experience as we watched the Seahawks game! There's one tv for viewing.

    Before our hike we stopped by Portobello. It was delicious and so many options! We struggled with parking since everything was valet and paid parking. Instead we had drivers stay in the car. The breakfast burrito was amazing! It's so large. My issue with this restaurant is I came back for lunch since breakfast was so good but 1 friend's chicken was so dry and other seasoning issues happened with other dishes

    Hot chocolate
    Lauren B.

    I really hate to write this but I was incredibly disappointed. I looked up top places to get a hot chocolate and this place was on the top of the list. It's a cozy atmosphere with a fast casual vibe. The staff were friendly and incredibly quick to bring out our order. I got a Belgian hot chocolate, which tasted really watered down. My fiance got the maple flavored hot chocolate. Both were cold... also we asked for it to be for "here" vs "to go" and got it in to go cups (not a big deal). Not the biggest deal, but was really wanting a cozy warm mug to hold. Presentation just wasn't there compared to others you can get in Whistler.

    Amazing pastries that were not as expensive as I expected them to be since this bakery is in the Fairmont Hotel. The hotel is elegant and the pastries are just an extension of the ambiance of the hotel; decadent and upscale.

    This is like the best restaurant it has such a cozy vibe to it and the avocado toast is my favorite. I do recommend!

    Coffee and chocolate scone
    Tony X.

    I went to Portobello in the morning for a coffee and a chocolate scone, and both were excellent, however, not all that different from coffee and scones at other places. I'd love to go back to Portobello for a lunch or dinner. With plenty of seats inside and outside, it looks like a great setting for a meal together with other people.

    We ate here twice during our visit to Whistler and hands down, the food is spot on! We had watched some videos on Whistler prior to our trip and Portobello was mentioned in all of them as a must stop. I agree. We had the poutine with mushrooms and onions and the Rosemary gravy. One thing to note, I have always had poutine on fries, but here they use deliciously baked red potatoes. At first my wife preferred fries, but I mentioned I liked the potatoes because I could determine the ratio of potato to gravy, etc. By the end, she agreed. We also had the Perfectly Perfect Porchetta sandwich. I don't know what to say about this because the name says it all. It is a perfect sandwich. The pork is seasoned perfectly and they have their own pork rinds and a sauce. The bread is fresh made and...well, like the name says, it's perfect. The people that prepare your food to the people at the register and those who help clean up are all courteous and attentive. This is a lively place during meal times so it can get busy, but it is worth the wait! My only reason for a missed star was they make the food and do not always wear gloves. To me, I prefer you wear gloves during food handling, especially when I can see you. Think of the number of times a day we touch our face without even knowing we do.

    Nice cafe with plenty of seating! Everything was delicious!! We had the creme brulee donut, custard filled dossaint, the chicken pot pie, braised short rib chili, and roasted orchestra ciabatta! Update: we really enjoyed the food so had to come back the next day for breakfast!

    Yes please- May I have a maple bacon donut
    Bonnie C.

    We dream and salivate about the maple bacon donut at Portobello. They bring them out at 9am daily. We look forward to visiting Whistler because of these donuts. I think it is the best donut I have ever had. Yum! We also had a good turkey sandwich and fresh salad. The lunch was so good. Portobello is a must visit for donuts and lunch.

    Porchetta sandwich
    Jeff W.

    Recently had lunch here, one of our go-tos when we're looking for a leisurely meal with much better quality than what you'll get at Rendezvous or Roundhouse lodges. It's cafeteria style and the line doesn't move very quick, so for lunch expect a significant wait, but the food is great. Breakfast and dinner are shorter waits. Great lodge-like vibe, separate area for coffee and a bar but you can pay for everything together.

    Back again and again this place rocks for good good food, great Fairmont service all without the craziness of the mountain lodges, always worth the 20' ski down. Now with the new gondolas getting up is a snap

    Amazing cafe where you can have breakfast, lunch and dinner. Open until late. They also have daily specials. We took cuban sandwich and poutine. Both were very delisious. It's a nice meal after working out whole day. The portions are very generous, me and my husband we shared it otherwise it would be too much. This food kept us full whole day. Also I highly recommend to try their Belgium hot chocolate it's pretty good! They have very cozy outdoor patio with fire-pits and plenty of space inside, with tvs and bar.

We thought it was because of the tucked away location out of the main center, and decided to give this place a try considering its many reviews. Then we realized everyone else probably knew better. -Overpriced mediocre food $28-$35 for burgers and sandwiches that were small, dry, and bland. -Dirty, dusty, tables, and flies everywhere. -Bad service The overpriced mediocre food would have been acceptable considering its tourist location. We could have even excused the flies ...but then you add the bad service and understand that this place just sucks. Every time we needed something we had to hunt our server down-ketchup, water, a quick picture. The place was nearly empty. They didn't tell us the iced tea was sweetened. Most places mention this. No biggee. When we realize it is, we told them we didn't want sweetened iced tea and didn't touch it, but then our server gave awkward attitude when we asked (very politely) to have it removed from the bill. Is that not common sense? We asked for a box and after nearly 10 minutes went to check what happened...our server forgot. Maybe she didn't care to put in any effort because of the mandatory 20 percent tip charge for parties over 6 ppl. This would be fine if the service was near acceptable, or even if the service existed at all after dropping off our food. This place is a waste time, money, and your opportunity to try the businesses that actually deserve your patronage.

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.

I ordered the 6 oz prime sirloin with truffle butter. Both steaks came out in exceptional time. The service was quite amazing. My only thing was both steaks were overcooked. I ordered medium and it looked almost well done. My friend ordered medium rare and his was almost medium, if not done as well.

The lemon tart was absolutely incredible and left us wanting more. I also loved that we were treated to little complimentary nibbles, and the pastry department is clearly incredibly talented. Araxi is definitely on the expensive side, but it's an exceptional fine dining restaurant and well worth it for a special occasion or memorable experience. If you're looking to treat someone special or celebrate an important moment, Araxi is the place to go in Whistler. You'll leave feeling completely satisfied after an outstanding meal, and you'll probably be thinking about it for a long time afterward. Highly recommend! I'm still wowed by it

My husband and I were were in Whistler for the weekend to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary and decided on going to the Keg to get some good steak. We had an amazing time in all the Kegs we have ever visited. We mentioned it was a special anniversary on the online reservation and requested a special table near a nicer part of the restaurant. When we arrived and until the end of the evening, there was no mention at all of our anniversary and not even a congrats. Worse, we got the worse table in the area right near the bar...ugh! The steak was bland and veggies were undercooked covered in salt. We have been to the Kegs in Vancouver and they are all completely opposite in service and food quality. Every time we do a celebration at the Keg, we are welcomed and made to feel special and the service is outstanding. Nope not in Whistler. Our entire experience was disappointing and we felt like we had wasted our anniversary at this Keg. We normally get a dessert but after finishing our dinner, we were ready to get the heck out of here asap! Seriously this is the worse Keg in the whole of BC.... We will never ever be back and we do not recommend anyone going here. It really sucks!
