All Reviews
I think the best part about this restaurant (inside the Fairmont in Whistler) is the service.
Every day until passover, they are having a $10 deal. They pick something from the menu (usually priced at $25-35CAD) and BAM it's $10.
We ate on a Monday night and it was free range chicken. One fat juicy leg and one fat juicy breast. A dollop of mashed taters, plated over veggies. TOO MUCH FOOD.
Of course, the meal didn't end up being $20 because we had to go and order beers, and dessert. The dessert disappointed a little. We go the maple creme brulee, but it was all too mushy and not cold, so they probably just made it and brought it out real quick.

We were lucky enough to catch one of the nightly specials going on at the Wildflower this month...a prime rib dinner for just $10!
It was a steal for a nice slab of prime rib, dollop of mashed potatoes, side of roasted veggies and poofy Yorkshire pudding. We added a mushroom soup and garden salad to start, and were able to enjoy a delicious, civilized two-course dinner for two for a fraction of what it would normally cost.
Make reservations in advance because they book up quickly when they run these specials...we barely squeezed in at the last minute on standby. And, if you have little ones, you can't beat the very appetizing kids' dinner buffet for only $5!
Being fair to the Wildflower.
The location is lovely great for munching and getting on a gondola.
The views are okay but not brilliant.
The food at the Breakfast buffet was very reasonable if not a little cool ( when will people install really heat lamps) and displayed very well.
The omelette chef was great.
However the service was probably the worst I have ever had in a 5 star hotel. Ten Minutes to get a pot of tea. I had to go up to someone and get some orange juice. They NEVER took away any plates we used during the breakfast, to the point we started stacking them like a game of reverse Jenga. Then 30 minutes for someone to fetch the visa card and bill. In the end we walked out ...... We did complete a feedback form and left our telephone number so we could be charged for the food but we wanted to speak to someone first! As expected no one has called us....... seriously I expected so much more from the Fairmont.
Four words: Chocolate Fondue for Two. Don't let the name fool you, this bad boy easily satisfies the sweet teeth of at least four people. At $20, this is actually a real deal as it comes with a wide assortment of items to deep into chocolate. I tell everyone who is planning a trip to Whistler to get the Chocolate Fondue for Two and the Port Sampler. The Port Sampler is a bargain for $20 and offers a generous half serving of either three or four Ports.
The food is good, if not a bit average. The dessert is killer and unmatched in Whistler.
