5/5: 14oz ribeye

Overall it was 5/5. Food was great. Service was excellent. Restaurant has children friendly menu.

breakfast

Breakfast OMG the queue in the morning is huge! We had a breakfast everyday at Wildflower and if you don't take buffet then it will take forever to get your food. We selected a la carte egg Benedicts and we waited 40 minutes for the food and our food came before coffee. Food is delicious by the way, but service was way off. Also waitress try to charge us for buffet even we took a la carte and our dishes was cheaper than flat buffet price. Dinner Maybe because this was our breakfast place we didn't felt any ambience for our 6th wedding anniversary. Also we noticed that we were way overdressed and people came very casually dressed. They didn't care for our wedding anniversary even we told hostess and waiter... I wish we chose other restaurant for our big dinner. My husband took lamb loin and it was pretty good. I chose seafood chowder was good, but lack of presentation( whatever green oil was on top looked messy). My elk tar tar was excellent and I think it was best dish lol. No desserts because everything looked very heavy and not appealing. I saw desserts on other peoples tables..

Potato galette

The Wildflower was having a 3 course spring dining experience and we took advantage! Recommended to make reservations but we could have walked in right when they opened at 6 pm on Sunday. Wildflower is located within 10-15 min walk from the Whistler base as it is located in the Fairmont hotel at the base of Blackcomb Mountain. My appetizer was the crispy fried potato galette, entree was slow braised beef short rib, and dessert the chocolate sundae. The potato galette seemed similar to very thin potato slices like hash browns but was definitely more flavorful and upscale than what I described. The asparagus/vegetables made it refreshing and balanced well with the potatoes. The braised beef short rib was very tender and moist! I savored every bite and would recommend that as your entree choice! The dessert was massive! This huge cup contained a couple scoops of ice cream, some popcorn, brownie pieces, and caramel pearls. I couldn't finish it! Overall the dinner was great and would recommend you dine in here if you're wanting a nice dinner, especially if they are offering a 3 course menu for $49!

Strawberry shortcake was delicious!

Great service and great food! This restaurant has the best dessert in Whistler compared to all the other high end restaurants. They provide so variety of desserts and have wonderful service.

We went to Wildflower and ordered off their special summer menu. It came with an appetizer, main dish which you can choose from, and a dessert. Really good value for price point. It is welcoming and warm inside, however it felt a little commercial in nature. Our server was really prompt and friendly and was quick to refill our glasses. We tried both the scallop and the beef tartar appitizer. Both came presented beautifully. The scallops were fresh and fragrent. Probably my favourite dish of the evening. Beef tartar was plentiful but rather bland in flavour. The only thing that would not order again. For mains, the salmon was perfectly cooked and the presentation was fantastic. The beef shortribs were tender and delicious. The meat fell away from the bone. Dessert was good. I chose the panna cotta was was rich and refreshing at the same time. My friend chose the chocolate offer and actually it was so amazing- and i don't even like chocolate Good night. Look for deals here. It was a verylovely meal.

light and refreshing salad with carrots, greens, beets, grapefruit and crispy toasty bits

It was Canada Day long weekend and I did not book any dining reservations in advance. I was looking for a fine dining experience and this restaurant happened to have reservation spots available. I ended up booking this restaurant for dinner last minute. We were seated right away. Menus were dropped off. It happened that Sunday to Thursday offered a three course pricing menu. That was a pleasant surprise to eat at a discount. We ordered some drinks and a three course meal. Overall, food was beautifully presented and flavours were fantastic. Complimentary bread was provided. My meal started with a mocktail with their seedlip gimlet (seedlip, lime and lime cordial). It was sweet and refreshing. I chose oysters as my appetizer. It was fresh. Next was the lamb. I found the portion size large. Lamb was tender. The green beans were cooked to the perfect crispness. Lastly, we shared dessert. The bergamot posset tasted like a custard with apricot jelly and kumquats. It was a sweet dessert that was nicely presented. I also tried the dark chocolate mousse and I preferred that one more because I like the chocolate and cherry combination. Service was what I expected for typical fine dining. There were four people working on the floor. At times, the service pace felt a bit slow although our server did check on us during each course. The restaurant was surprisingly busy for a Sunday during COVID times. COVID precautions were still in place. Staff wore face masks. Hand sanitizer was available.

Came here for a friend's birthday dinner in August. The restaurant was beautiful with high ceilings and walls filled with wine. It was during covid so we had to get our temperatures checked at the front of the hotel. All the staff were wearing masks. We ordered appetizers and mains but honestly everything was big in portion size. The seafood chowder was heavenly but very creamy and rich. If you decide to split it, they charge you a $5 fee but you get more chowder. I had the special of the day (vegetarian risotto) but even the appetizer portion looked like a main portion (so much food!). For mains, we ordered the surf & turf (special of the day), the duck and a vegetarian gnocchi. My favourite was the duck - the breast was cooked perfectly and I liked how they stuffed all the confit leg into a croquette ball. The surf & turf was below expectations as the steak was just average (not a very good cut of meat). The gnocchi was really yummy as well but we were too full to finish it. For the birthday girl, the server helped us surprise her with a dessert sundae with a candle and "happy birthday" written in chocolate.

Eggs Benedict, good flavor... but basically hard boiled.

Back to back superb nights! Wild Blue team, you provided BACK TO BACK exceptional nights. I…read moredidn't catch the names of all the people but once again, we got lucky and Laura from Ireland was our server and I would like to confirm "best server ever". Tonight we ordered the Hamachi Crudo, along with a couple of pounds of the freshest Dungeness Crab with Louie sauce, and we closed the night with Sticky Toffee Pudding. My amazing wife had never experienced this dessert so I talked her into it. I had an espresso as well. The hamachi crudo was tender and oh so fresh and kind of melting in our mouths. The crab was mind blowing fresh sweet prepared exceptionally, and I couldn't decide if I liked it just poached with no butter or Louie but both ways was so good! My wife's response to the sticky toffee was that she thanked me for insisting that we ordered it, and that when we come back to Whistler, Wild Blue is the first stop for killer food, and top of class service. Great place, amazing vice and ambiance. Just a fun experience!!!

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.

He recommended glasses of wine that perfectly complemented each of our dishes, which really elevated the entire meal. What made the evening even more special was how thoughtful and attentive the team was in celebrating our anniversary.

The strawberry rhubarb white chocolate mousse was absolutely delicious and the perfect way to end the meal (5/5).

Very popular menu, I noticed a lot of customers ordered. Charcuterie board CAD59.00 - Highlight of dinner. The largest charcuterie board including cheese meat, pickles and pate. I forgot to write down the type of cheese and meats, eveything was delicious. Especially the level of saltiness was well balanced. Perfect. Pate was excellent, too. One of the best charcuterie I have ever had. Highly recommend. We also started with several beers and I had non alcohol drink - Espresito - Non Amaretto, noa amaro, houjicha tea and espresso cream. - This drink was one of the best non alcohol cocktail. Houjicha and non amaretto paired surprisingly so well and that espresso cream was so addictive. This item is also highly recommend. Overall, We really enjoyed visiting here again.

Our server was absolutely amazing, so warm, attentive, and lovely throughout the evening. The food was truly exceptional. I had been eyeing the halibut, and it did not disappoint. It was perfectly cooked and full of depth and flavours. Every bite was delicious, and I was genuinely impressed. The soup was amazing too The dessert deserves a special shout-out 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

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!
