"We were warmly greeted by name upon our arrival & the service was impeccable throughout. The complimentary crab cake was a pleasant surprise & was very good. The signature tomato soup (and entertaining tableside show) & sable fish was heavenly- perfectly done! The New York steak was prepared perfectly & the bordaise sauce was delicious. The creme brûlée was creamy, smooth and deliciously decorated with cookies and fruit. The peanut & chocolate tart was artistically presented with a scoop of ice cream on top. To end the meal, we were presented with complimentary candy floss. The portions were sizeable...just don't load up on the delicious breads. The Grill room was wonderful and we were fortunate to have Melandro (so friendly) serve us!"

"We loved our table by the fireplace. Every item on the seafood platter was fresh. The beet salad was fresh and colorful. The Tomahawk steak was juicy and cooked perfectly. I loved the apple and cranberry crumble with vanilla ice cream dessert but needed a little but more ice cream. We will return and try other dishes next time."

"Great atmosphere, reserved but not stuffy. Service was great and staff was very kind to 7 y.o. daughter. Restaurant had a kids buffet that night with lots of options. Husband and I both had steaks which were delicious, beautifully presented with sauce and condiments. Ordered sautéed mushrooms and asparagus as sides which were good as well. Apple crumble for dessert was the low point of the meal, not terrible but not as good as the rest. Will definitely return on our next trip to Whistler."

"Service was great! We had the Peppered Bison Carpaccio to start and both found the balance of truffle oil with the bison and greens made it more like a very rich salad, but very good. The waiter split the order without being asked - nice touch. Entree was the Pacific Sablefish - perfectly cooked - loved it. The idea of the restrauant is to have a kid free dining experience within the Wildflower and it worked very well for a nice meal for 2."

"The food is always consistent in terms of quality and presentation. Fresh ingredients and good service.
Just one recommendation - with the classic look of the restaurant, and the cookware you can bring to cook at the table, please add "Crepe Suzette" to the menu. We are the second table to ask for this dessert that evening. The server told me that Four Seasons has Crepe Suzette, but we would like to dine at the Grill having Crepe Suzette! Please consider."

"Booked a table for four through OpenTable on a last second whim during March Ski Break. The service was top-notch. Roxy was our waiter and she was excellent. Her presentation of the 60-day dry aged rib-eye was so convincing that all four of us opted to have it for dinner! The seafood platter for appetizers was above average. The Sawmill Bay oysters were excellent. My wife and I asked that our rib-eye prepared rare and our friends asked for theirs medium-rare. The steaks were presented exactly as advertised and were fantastic. The sides (asparagus, mushrooms, creamed potato) were great accompaniments to the mains. The gourmet mac'n'cheese that Roxy brought to the table was a welcome bonus. The ambience was casual and family friendly"

"Three of us had a delightful meal here.Paul our Australian introduced himself to us and walked us through the menu.He suggested we hadnt ordered enough so we ordered the seafood platter for four.He was right it was just the right amount.The seafood was exceptional and not covered in any batter so we didnt feel we had overdone it.Highly recommend the restaurant.We are in Whistler for a month every year and we rarely eat dinner at home so we will be back a few more times"

"There was no doubt this dinner would be great - it's a Fairmont so of course our expectations were very high! And they did not disappoint. No one likes a $600 bill, but I guess you know going in how it's going to go. The food and service were impeccable; Mel, our waiter, and all his associates gave extremely great service and even went beyond our expectations with lots of extra surprises. Our group of four has dined around the world, and this experience was one of the best any of us have had."

"I have done a lot of fine dining and this one takes the cake. The food was excellent, the staff was not pretentious, and the bill was reasonable (relative to fine dining standards) at the end of the meal. Overall, an extremely positive experience and probably one of my favorite meals Ive ever had. In terms of service - ask for Roxy - you cant go wrong!"
