Wild Blue Restaurant + Bar

We celebrated our anniversary at Wild Blue in Whistler and it was absolutely perfect. From the moment we arrived, the service was warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between upscale and cozy—ideal for a special occasion. The food was outstanding. Every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavor, with a clear emphasis on fresh, local ingredients. We especially loved the seafood—perfectly cooked and full of depth—and the wine list is top-tier, with excellent pairings recommended by the sommelier. What made the evening extra memorable was the thoughtful touches the staff added once they knew it was our anniversary. It really felt like they went above and beyond to make it a special night. Highly recommend Wild Blue for a romantic evening or any celebration—it’s easily one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in Whistler.

Amazing as always; second time here for our anniversary. Donald is our favourite server, and the manager is very attentive and added some special touches to the evening. The people working here are truly talented! Food is like pieces of art, ambiance is perfect

We just added this restaurant to our top 5 best foods list. Absolutely a wonderful time. The ambience was just perfect for date night. We ordered a lot of different food options including the ones you see in the pics. The dessert was the best part. If you are in whistler you do not want to miss trying out Wild Blue. Id highly recommend it. We are looking forward to our next meal here.

We celebrated my birthday with the 4-course prix fixe menu for $39, paired with the $49 wine tasting, and it was truly a memorable and delightful experience. The restaurant itself was absolutely stunning, featuring elegant design and a fully stocked bar with every spirit imaginable. Each dish was thoughtfully crafted and beautifully presented. While the food was impressive, there were minor technical issues with some flavors—occasionally a bit too salty, slightly unbalanced, or overpowering—but nothing that overshadowed the overall quality. Although some of the wine pairings weren’t to my personal taste, the selection was interesting and thoughtfully matched to some of the dishes. Our server Jeremy was exceptional—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming, which made the celebration feel extra special. The impeccable service and vibrant atmosphere perfectly complemented the meal. Without a doubt, this is one of the finest dining experiences you can find—highly recommended for anyone looking to indulge in great food and a fantastic night out.

Our experience at Wild Blue was incredible, one of the best fine dining experiences that we’ve ever had. The service was outstanding, our server was very knowledgeable on popular items, he made recommendations on what to eat - we ended up getting five of his recommendations and they were all excellent. We got the octopus, lobster ravioli, tuna tataki, oysters, and sticky toffee pudding. I don’t even know which one was my favourite because they were all so good, so much flavour and very unique pairings, the presentation on all the dishes was outstanding. The evening was a beautiful night outside but we still chose to sit inside instead of outside on the patio because the ambiance and design of the restaurant was just that beautiful!

This place was fantastic! The service was amazing. Our server was charming, knowledgeable, and attentive without being overly intrusive, and did a great job. Partner had the rib cap, and having had steak in many, many restaurants (including some Michelin Stars), said that this was the best steak he'd ever had. I had the sablefish, which was out of this world. The drinks were also amazing. Dessert was light, flavourful, and inspired. I cannot recommend this place enough. We go to Whistler every year, and we try a different restaurant every night. This is our hands-down favourite. Check them out, they won't disappoint!

Beautiful place. Excellent service. I had higher expectations on the food and drinks. Some dishes were better than others. The sablefish was our highlight. Cooked just right, tender, buttery and melt in your mouth.

Both Tourists and locals recommend this place for me and I am so happy I came here for dinner. It was just me so I sat at the bar and was served by Mason. The cocktails were amazing and his food recommendations were spot. I left feeling very satisfied with my meal and also reveling in my great dining experince with the decor, ambiance, and the service. Mason especially was very warm and friendly and spent time to chat with me which is nice as a solo traveler. Could not recommend enough! The duck was 💋💋💋

The food was amazing and the service was fantastic. I wanted a sweet drink and the server recommended the rhubarb strawberry drink...delicious. The lighting and music perfect. My partner picked the best place for dinner. The place got packed. First of all, lobster bisque was delicious and the halibut was yummy. My partners rib cap was amazing and tender. The shishito pepper and the sauce . My fave and hands down my #1, it was the sticky toffee pudding. To me, its the best i have ever had. Hands down my fave. I would recommend friends and family to go there. I recommend everyone should go there.

Very classy upscale decor upon entering. Reminiscent of the inside of a ship, a fancy one! The bar is large with a warp around bar seating area and the dining room is also large but intimate feeling good for groups too. We've been here before but thought we'd try their Prix fixe menu and it did not disappoint! For $39 we had a four course meal and it was just enough portion size to feel full and not stuffed. It may be small for someone with a larger appetite. More like a tasting menu. Starters: fresh pea salad, organic spring mix salad Appetizer: pasta (a version of carbonara) it was delicious! Main: veal shank- amazing, but comes with a surcharge, well worth it! The ling cod equally amazing no surcharge! Dessert: rhubarb slice and a lemon meringue bite. Everything was perfectly cooked and presented, service is equally high and you can always choose the option of a wine pairing for a bit extra to have with your meal. Worth the visit and at this price you can't go wrong, so get it before the regular season begins and prices go back up!

This was our final dinner for our short stay in Whistler. It recently won Best Restaurant in Whistler in Vancouver Magazine, so I had some high expectations. We had reservations and asked whether we preferred to sit inside or in the patio. It was a beautiful sunny day, so we decided patio, where it was lush and still covered from direct sunlight. Although we didn't sit inside, it clearly looked a like a sleek, dark and elegant place with a stunning bar. We were welcome by a very professional server where he went over the spring prix fixe and the a la carte options. He then took our drink order. Our drinks took a lot longer than expected - maybe 10-15 min, but after seeing it served, I could clearly see the attention to detail which is why it took awhile. We decided on the prix fixe ($39 for 4 courses). Here is what we tried: - Spring Sweet Pea Soup - Very good/excellent. I would seldom order a pea soup, as I couldn't imagine it ever being very good. I was completely wrong here. Warm, silky , smooth and nicely seasoned this converted me. I could eat this over and over. - Tomato Tartare - Very good/excellent. I wasn't sure if tomato tartare was a real dish. But what I do know is that when it came out, it looked like a lot of beef tartare I've had. Not only beautifully presented, but also delicious. - Chicken Liver Parfait - Very good. Another work of art, and good tasting plate. My only thought was the pickled rhubarb overpowers the parfait. - Radiatori - Good. Solid dish, but compared to everything else we had, not as memorable. - Roasted Ling Cod - Excellent. I've had roasted fish so many times, it tends to disappoint more than impress, but they did it perfect. It takes a good chef to get the fish the perfect texture (not over cooked) yet the skin so crisp. Topped off with a great sauce, this was exceptional. - Osso Bucco - Very good/excellent. A confidentially prepared dish and it delivered. Braised to perfection. - Rhubarb and Wildflower Gateau - Very good. I generally don't really like rhubarb or edible flowers, but what they delivered is another beautifully plated dessert that was light and surprisingly delicious. - Warm Chocolate Fondant Cake - Excellent. I've had some many similar molten cakes, I was sure there was no way it could get any better. Wrong. Perfectly warm liquid centre, crispy like shell, chocolatey but not overly sweet, this is probably the best version of this dessert I've ever had. Service was spot on. Server, runners, and bussers were all professional, friendly, personable and attentive. The exact service you would expect from a top tier restaurant. What really blew my mind is that the prix fixe menu is only $39 (plus supplemental fees for some items). To get this high a quality meal in Vancouver would cost at least twice that. At this price I would gladly drive up from Vancouver solely to eat at Wild Blue. I can easily see why this place won Best Restaurant in Whistler. Wonderful dinner.

We came here because of the reviews and we are so glad we did. The food was really good and the service was great. Donald was our waiter and he was very friendly and offered great suggestions. Hamachi crudo - delicious and highly recommended (it's one of their best sellers) Oysters - fresh and delicious Octopus - good Prime rib eye + fries - the steak was cooked to perfection and it was delicious and we didn't even need use any of their sauce. Please note that if you pick two sauces, you will get charged for the extra sauce. Fries were good too. Grilled shrimp - good Rigatoni with a red sauce - good (kids meal) Sticky pudding - delicious (it would have been better if they put a candle on it as we were celebrating a birthday) Overall, great restaurant and walking distance from the Westin.

This place is so hard to get into if you don't have advance reservations, but wow it was incredible. Best meal I had at Whistler and the octopus was the best dish of our trip. We were seated at the bar and had a 60 min time limit because we didn't have reservations, but came early enough. Got oysters, the grilled octopus, and two filet mignons as our entree. The bartender warned that it would take a while but they got our food to us in record speed so they can shuffle us out of there without rushing us to eat. If you were wondering, we were stuffed and had plenty of spare time within their hour limit. As for ambience, it is definitely fancy. If you've ever watched "The Bear" there are elements of the impeccable service but also, workers bickering because it's such a machine to turn over customers at their service level. It was awkward as I could hear someone at the bar sniping at other workers and the moment you set your napkin down wrong, someone is there to refold it for you.

Fantastic dining experience from start to finish. Whistler can be bougie and overrated, however this particular meal was worth every penny. Amazing service, fantastic wine menu, and the food is to die for. I will definitely be back next time I vacation in Whistler.

My fiancé and I took a trip to Whistler in October and decided to try Wild Blue. We had their off-season prix fixe menu which was 4 courses for $39 each, which was an absolute steal! Everything we tried was incredibly delicious, but the highlight for me was the young beets salad - so good. The ambiance was quite fancy, it wasn't too loud, which was nice. We did have a later reservation though, around 9pm. Definitely recommend making reservations ahead of time. The service was also fantastic, our waiter was super kind and thorough about my peanut allergy, explaining all the precautions they take for allergies. I felt totally at ease, which isn't always the case at restaurants! This was one of the best meals we've had in a long time. We'll definitely come back next time we're in Whistler!

We managed to score a reservation for our party of 9 over the Christmas break. What a treat! From the minute you step into Wild Blue, the ambience was warm, inviting and the bar was visually stunning. It was so festive with all the Christmas lights. We were seated in the private dining room and our server was professional, knowledgeable and helpful the entire night. It was nice that we all were able to order off the a la carte menu for a party of 9. Drinks, wine and food all delicious. I think the standouts were the seafood platter with the green chili gremolata. So yummy. The prawns were so fresh, nicely chilled and truly tasted as if they had just come out of the water. The bacon chop also a must order. It didn't disappoint and will absolutely be back next time we're in Whistler.

Venue is beautiful and spacious. Service was incredibly warm, hospitable, happy and compassionate. And the food was delicious! One of the best meals and experiences I've had at whistler in recent years! We came for a 4 course $39 prix fixe meal which exceeded expectations. The potato leek soup was so smooth and delicate. Roasted carrots were surprisingly filling and had a nice glaze to it. tuna tataki melted in your mouth and had amazing flavors with whatever sauce was added. Wow. Cavatelli pasta was rich and flavorful, loved the crunchy bits and portion size was just right. Lingcod was very nice but the skin could have used more crisp - skin was slightly gummy/scaly- but the meat was delicious as was it's sauce. Pork belly and cheeks were cooked well and tender. Sauce was good as well but was more subtle. Desserts were amazing. Tiramisu and apple confit were executed perfectly. I loved the caramel ice cream and marveled at how thinly the apples were sliced and stacked. I would totally recommend and come here again. So good!!!

Came for a late night drink. Two glasses of white and the Parmesan truffles fries to share. Two seats are the bar with no wait and no reservations. Pros: - absolutely beautiful interior and space. Super lush and relaxed - the service was impeccable with attention to detail and knowledge on the wine - fries appeared double or triple fried. It was fantastically crisp and flavorful (without the oily texture) - check out the bathroom. There's a sitting powder room to enjoy - on the pricey side, but that's to be expected: $22/glass of wine

The food was magnificent, the ambiance romantic, the service could've been a bit better. I felt our server was somewhat inattentive and the bartenders slightly arrogant. Book reservations first or there is a good chance you won't get seated, not even at the bar. I was surprised to see Wild Blue offer a 4-course prix dinner option for $39; you read that right $39! But only in summer months I believe. What a great deal. Our favorite dish was the first one, potato and leek soup, the flavors were divine. I tried the chicken liver parfait as I was feeling adventurous, it was good but felt there was too much of it on the plate. The rockfish was fresh, crisped to perfection and the citrus lemon sauce delightful. Finished off with some of the best sticky toffee I've had outside of London. I highly recommend Wild Blue.

This was voted one of Canada's 100 best restaurants and I can see why. The bar is beautiful and service was impeccable. We really appreciated the small details such as the server noticing we weren't drinking ( we ordered a nonalcoholic cocktail & nonalcoholic beer) then bringing us two complimentary glasses of nonalcoholic bubbles to celebrate our anniversary. We tried the fall prix fixe menu for $39/person, which was a great deal. For an additional $28 we upgraded to the 10oz striploin. Every dish was so fresh, tasty and beautifully presented. We also added the grilled octopus, which I would recommend as an appie. Im definitely coming back here the next time I'm in Whistler.

Here we go into the Wild Blue yonder! This is an unexpectedly fancy restaurant a few steps off the Whistler Village stroll. If you are driving, there's somewhat convenient parking provided. THE PLACE- you can tell immediately when you walk in that this place is high end, with a door the slides open as you enter, feels like the starship Enterprise or something. The vibe is fancy as the bar is the central fixture. With comfortable tables throughout. THE SERVICE- very good, there's more than plenty of people working here to take care of you, my wine glass rarely got to empty before it was filled again. Great suggestions and guidance as we navigated the seemingly complicated menu. But on the other side of complexity, provided us the flexibility to piece together just the right selections to meet our needs. THE FOOD- Amazing, everything was just great, you can tell they focus on only the freshest of everything. We started with BC oysters, some shrimp and had fish entrees and the fingerling potatoes were amazing. If you're looking for a fancy night out in Whistler can highly recommend Wild Blue.

Best meal in Whistler if you're looking for a truly upscale dining experience. The sablefish was spectacular - melt-in-your-mouth buttery fish with rich broth and complimentary vegetables and seasoning. I also really enjoyed the sides we ordered of the truffle fries (strong truffle flavor, perfect crisp) and charred broccolini (tender, no stringiness, accompanied by little cubes of baked torn bread). The apple confit was the best dessert I've had in a long time - thin flaky pastry, distinctive apple favor, and smooth salted caramel ice cream. The cocktails were so memorable - I had the non-alcoholic yuzu spritz (I find it so rare for a mocktail to be as carefully constructed and delicious as this drink was) and my partner had the old fashioned with port (so unique). The interior is spacious and beautiful, and the seasonal festive Christmas decorations added to the classy glamour. I liked being able to see the bustle of the open kitchen and ogling over the stunning bar. (Oh and go to the bathroom just to admire the decor!) Service was top-notch. It was clear that our server knew the menu inside and out, and gave us excellent recommendations and descriptions of the dishes. He was anticipatory and accommodating without being overbearing. A+ dining experience.

Wild Blue is debatably the current best restaurant in Whistler - it's a hard crown to keep, so we'll see if they keep it up. This was one of the best meals I've had, each dish was delicious and generous, the interior is modern and trendy, and the service was impeccable. My party loved the green sauce that comes with the oysters so much that someone ordered fries and green sauce...I know they would have sold several bottles if it were for sale. My clarified milk cocktail called "Matcha" was delicious, I was worried it would be overwhelmingly matcha flavored but it was not, it was well balanced. The duck and octopus were fantastic. But the most interesting thing of the night was the sticky toffee pudding. Typically the crown for best sticky toffee pudding goes to Rimrock but the server promised theirs was better so I gave it a try. It was amazing, a smooth spicy cake, a nice crunch from the crispy layer, the sauce was maybe a little it too sweet but had great flavor, and the ice cream although delicious, I would have liked more of. Overall, I give the upper edge to the Wild Blue sticky toffee pudding but I think it could be even better with a few tweaks. Overall, if you are a foodie, this should absolutely be on your list for Whistler.

I had high hopes for Wild Blue since it was highly rated on Google, but it was a pretty disappointing meal. Came here on a Wednesday night with no reservations, took 20 minutes to seat a party of 3. The food took awhile to be served overall. We ordered the Two-Tier Seafood Tower and the Octopus as starters which was good. It came with raw oysters, cocktail shrimp, clams, hamachi, and tuna tataki. The octopus appetizer was cooked to perfection and one of the crowd favorites of the night. *Chefs kiss* But unfortunately I feel like the seafood was the only decent part of the meal. We also ordered the Ribeye medium rare, side of Mushrooms and Roasted Brussel Sprouts. The mushrooms were too salty, the Brussel Sprouts had some raw brussel leaves, and the steak was THE most disappointing part. We had asked for medium rare, the steak wasn't evenly cooked, one side was cooked longer to be medium, the other side was rare. Since we were family-styling everything we had the steak precut before it was served, the steak was cut along the grain, which made the meat harder to chew. The most appalling part was the quality of the cut served, it had MASSIVE strips of fat throughout the steak (see picture attached) which as a high-end sit down restaurant I'd be embarrassed to serve to customers. For around $300 USD, I would expect better quality food to be served. I definitely would not recommend nor come back

A perfect 50th anniversary experience, Wild Blue staff were warm, friendly and welcoming. Starting with an unexpected champagne gift, the prIx fixe 4-course meal included a rich, delicious potato gruyere soup, tenderly crisp beet salad, flavorful rockfish with vegetables and crowned with a hot fudge lava cake topped with a kiss of cold ice cream. All in our group of four experienced ecstasy and left pleasantly full. The ambience could have been noisy, because each table was occupied, but the velvety, draped walls and seats hushed the sounds. World class restaurant!

This is a really classy and beautifully decorated restaurant. Service was top notch, really attentive to details (we told the server the three of us were eating family style and we were all given small plates and bowls and all the necessary utensils; two of us were sharing a wine pairing and all the wine came pre-split). Since this is the start of the low season in Whistler, a lot of the fine dining restaurants are offering 4 course prix fixe menus that are of excellent value, and Wild Blue is one of them. The three of us ordered family style and shared their House-Made Linguine (with geoduck and little neck clams), Sablefish, and Spring Prix Fixe Menu (we chose Yukon Gold Potato & Leek Soup, Asparagus Caesar, NY Prime Steak, and Rhubarb for dessert. All for $39 plus $24 for the upgrade to NY Prime Steak). The wine pairing was $49 and came with four very well-paired wine from France, Australia, and Italy. We also got some really delicious sourdough bread and butter. Food was excellent, I especially enjoyed the Sablefish. The Asparagus Caesar and the Rhubarb were very creative and nicely presented. Overall it's a very affordable fine dining experience.

Amazing! The ambiance was nice and quiet, if you don't like darker restaurants, than this place may not be for you. The service was phenomenal: but, the food, everything we had was absolutely amazing and delicious. So full of flavor!

Our waiter at the outdoor seating area was perfect. It's like he read the room perfectly; he didn't talk to us too much and let us enjoy our 2 year anniversary in peace...but he was still excellent in every aspect. Very respectful, very knowledgeable and enthusiastic of the menu, and just gave us the perfect dinner. The dinner was very memorable because of his service. It elevated the restaurant. The food tasted better and the ambiance felt next level. I'm not going to get into the food, though we thoroughly enjoyed it all. The star of the show was his service. Thanks.

Hear ye! Hear ye! Hear ye! My favourite restaurant in Whistler. Once seated the AGM gave us two glasses of champagne - we were involved in building this restaurant 2 years ago. Hands-down the best fine dining seafood restaurant in Whistler. Service is flawless; only to be outdone by the impressive wine, menu selection and superb ambiance.

We had a very late reservation which was at 9:15pm but wasn't seated until close to almost 10pm. They were very apologetic and gave us champagne on the house. I have eaten out a lot places and this place gets 10/10!! My highest recommendation. This place had hands down the best foood ever and along with service! Our waiter was very knowledgeable and gave us recommendations. We prettty much ordered the entire menu. The matcha yuzu was refreshing and incredible. I was expecting a green color but it looked like lemon water which was quite surprising. The most memorable dish was oysters, tomahawk and the cavatelli. I guess anything with truffle is always good right? Tomahawk was prepare so nicely and although I was already full, couldn't stop munching for more. Oysters were so fresh and tasteful, my goodness. I noticed when we received the tomahawk, we were given new dishes that were heated. That's pretty awesome, never had one of those before. My least favorite that we ordered was the fish. I don't know what it was, maybe the taste? It felt kinda bland. It is pretty loud in here. There was a life DJ during our late dinner which happened to be really laid back music. We were expecting some hardcore music but thank god it wasn't. All in all, the staff is amazing. The food is incredible. I wish I could come back regular but maybe next time in Whistler

Been coming to Whistler for a couple decades and tried countless high end places and so excited and pleasantly surprised at this new discovery. Great ambience, great service and great food to boot. Came for a family reunion and Bday and couldn't be happier with the whole experience. We will be coming back for sure!!

My family of 2 80-year-olds and two just barely 9-year-olds had a fantastic New Year's Eve special celebration at Wild Blue. From the moment we walked in, we loved the decor, including the beautiful main bar and the staff has gone to so much work to set up hundreds of balloons all around the restaurant. The service was absolutely spectacular. Donald was an incredibly attentive server who looked after our every need. The children's menu was just right with nothing to children about it! They got to choose between a soup or salad for their appetizer and for their main course they got chicken or fish and chips or pasta. For dessert, they could have ice cream or a fabulous pecan free dish. They ate it all! For the adults, the treats were even more spectacular. My husband and my mom both loved the foie gras platter, which was very creative and beautifully decorated. My mom and I shared the butterfish and the risotto for our main course -- both were cooked perfection with delicate flavoring. My husband loved his beef tenderloin, delivered rare upon request. And the dessert of pecan praline was delightful. We even got to meet the owner who was incredibly kind. We are so happy that we got to come here and enjoy this fabulous local restaurant recommended to us by Vancouver resident!

Pause! Favorite restaurant experience I've had in a very long time. You walk into a room filled with art and ambiance. It's a little loud but it works. They decanted the SHIT out of our wine too, which enhanced the tannis and entire flavor of our pino. The food was amazing all around. We had the octopus which I highly recommend. We split the stable fish and rib eye both cooked to perfection. Our table ordered a bunch of sides which I would recommend. They do their potatoes very well here- we had fries, mashed potatoes and some has browns. I will keep thinking about this experience for a long time. I wish there was a yelp function to put a restaurant higher than my previous 5 star reviews because this one transcends all that came before.

On our taxi ride home from Rim Rock Cafe on Friday night, our driver recommended for us to try Wild Blue.. so we made reservations for Saturday dinner and the rest is history. Wow, what an amazing dining experience. The restaurant itself is STUNNING and our server Donald was absolutely wonderful! And the food was out of this world. It's crystal clear why they were #2 on Air Canada's Best New Restaurant 2023 list. Our meal included: * Appetizers: Lobster Bisque, Truffled Kennebec Fries, Cauliflower Caesar Salad, and Black Tiger Prawns. * Entrees: Harvest, Chicken, Halibut T-Bone, and Sablefish. * Side: Roasted Mushrooms. * Desserts: Strawberry Sorbet and Apple Tarte Tatin. * Wine: Stoneboat Vineyards 2022 Pinot Gris. Nothing but good things to say about EVERYTHING we ate. Everyone enjoyed what they had. My Lobster Bisque was sooooo good and my Sablefish was absolute perfection. Couldn't leave without having dessert, and the Apple Tarte Tatin completed my meal perfectly. We were all really blown away. An absolute must if you're in Whistler. Will definitely be coming back again the next time I'm here. A new favourite restaurant!

This is one of the best restaurants I have tried in Whistler! Restaurant has the cutest aesthetic, service was great. The sable fish is one of the best things on the menu. The pastas are delicious as well but small. Seafood platter was also a hit! We'll be back!!

Wow, wow, wow! What a beautiful place to have dinner while I am at Whistler. My waiter Donald was so knowledgeable with the menu but particularly about oysters. Most of the dishes were spectacular except for the sable fish and pasta. They weee over seasoned. Less salt would be better

This place is THE new, popular, trendy seafood/steak restaurant in the village. Make a reservation in advance, this place is popular. The oysters were super fresh. The tomahawk steak has perfectly cooked to our request for medium rare. It is pretty big and can feed 3-4 people. Our table was extremely comfortable booth seat with amazing pillows. I also recommend the sablefish. Love the decor and ambiance here (5/5). The restaurant is great for a fun group of friends after a long day of skiing.

The food and the service is very good. It is live up the standard and the name. We have a reunion here and they made us a dessert.

Came here after hearing multiple recommendations about this place, and it was a VERY pleasant surprise! When you walk through the entrance, you're instantly greeted with hearty aromas where I just KNEW the food would be great. And the food was not just great, it was beyond delicious. I still think about the food to this day and it's been 3 days since I've visited here. The scallops were perfectly cooked to where there's a crisp outer edge, soft on the inside and a burst of flavor explodes in your mouth with each bite The house made cavatelli was an interesting dish, good use of a cheese blend that wasn't overbearing. The sablefish was my absolute favorite, this is the dish I still think about days after eating here. Just like the scallops, crisp on the outside, soft and creamy on the inside and a great burst of flavor with each bite. A great recommendation by our waitress Jacqueline, and I'll rave about this dish until everyone remembers this dish is the best!! I found the ambiance to be so cozy after a day of snowboarding at Whistler, and I would definitely love to come back here if and when I visit Whistler again!

It was so quiet outside the door in the cold wet air. Once entered Wild Blue, it was wowed. The classy atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The food and services are excellent. I would like to revisit upon my return to Whistler.

My fiance got a reservation for 2 at 515pm on a Saturday in March 2024 - it was surprisingly empty when we got there (it got extremely busy when we left at 7pm). Coat check was fast and efficient, on both ends (there were 3-4 host folks at the front). Service overall was extraordinary. The server definitely understands the nuances of the menu and was happy to explain things to us. They also made sure that there weren't peanuts (allergy) in the food - and they clarified that from our notes on the reservation, which was a nice detail they kept an eye on. They clear the table between courses and always change cutlery - which is a nice touch (it's a lot of dishwashing I'm sure). They always provide the right amount of cutlery for each course - and set it deliberately in a very intentional manner. I was also impressed by the number of tables the waiter patiently served - despite the hectic schedule he always made time to refill our water (it was never less than one quarter full), and checked on us at the right time (not too often, not too little). We ordered two cocktails (Rikuyo sour and sanya), ten oysters (four of each, and two of another kind), the linguine, two scallops; my fiance ordered the sablefish and I ordered the ribeye (medium rare with Madeira jus). I 'upsold' my frites for truffle fries for my fiance and I to share. We later ordered the warm fondant chocolate cake for dessert. Here's the rundown: 0. Drinks: the most impressive part was that we ordered drinks, and the server NEVER LEFT THE TABLE, while he was explaining the menu, and inexplicably the drinks showed up WHILE HE WAS STILL THERE. WHAT. (drinks were excellent) 1. Oysters came out first. My fiance loved the shipwreck (Malpeque? PEI?) and Barclay petite (Effingham) oysters - so much so we ordered two more of each (10 total oysters). Her exact words were "exceeds my expectations" - which, if you know her at all (or read my reviews) - she has an extraordinarily refined palate (she may be a supertaster), and these oysters impressed her. Order them! (the green sauce is a bit spicy but sooooo good) 2. Linguine: the geoduck was awesome, the sauce was good, but the runaway was the texture of the noodles themselves. Paired with the sauce... Wow. 3. Mains (sablefish and ribeye): the sablefish was definitely the highlight - especially with that sauce (and the way it was prepared). The ribeye steak was perfectly cooked to medium and good on its own - it was also served with three types of parsnips - puree, chips, and the veggie itself. My fiance's fav dish of the night was the sablefish. 4. Scallops and truffle fries: these were the "least favourite" but they were still good. Scallops from Nova Scotia. 5. Warm chocolate fondant cake (this one was one of two that the server recommended - the other was the pecan praline bar): my fiance thought it was a bit salty, but paired with the vanilla ice cream, it was still delicious. You may note we didn't talk about bread. We didn't ask for any since we were gearing up to EAT. FOOD. ain't nobody got time for no BREAD. (I'm sure it's good plz don't roast me) Ambience: given that we came at 5pm, it was pretty quiet. It started to get a bit louder by 6pm when more people showed up, but it still felt intimate. Overall: this is the best restaurant in Whistler (missus rates this a 4.5/5). Anyone who thinks otherwise is either delusional or not actually a foodie. For two people it came out to just under $400 CAD (about $300 USD), after tax and tip. Given how much we ordered (with nothing taken as leftover), you likely will both spend and eat less. We've been to almost all of the highest rates restaurants in Whistler village (as of Mar 2024) - and this one impresses with its phenomenal sourcing and presentation of food, stellar service, and incredible ingredient quality. Come here if you can get a reservation - and bring lots of people! (they have a Tomahawk steak I wanted to try but alas, only two of us)

Was here on a ski trip and decided that wild blue would be the splurge meal. Despite spending nearly $100 USD per person, this was probably considered under ordering compared to what the typical clientele would order. Dishes asides from the entrees were meant to be shared. I shared the risotto and beet salad. These were the best beers I've ever tasted, presented with incredible detail and seasoned in a way that makes a beet more interesting than what you'd find at a salad bar. Loved the nori and puffed rice they added to the dish to balance out the softness of the beets with some crunchy texture. I got the bass for my entree. Portion was generous in terms of the fish itself, it was served with some greens. Overall enjoyable dinner but be ready to shell over some cash to get the full experience.

Six of us enjoyed the Four Course dinner ($39) recently. The individual food items were beautifully presented and the flavours left you wanting more. The servers were very attentive and satisfied our needs. The ambiance is lovely and cozy feeling. We all went crazy for the two small light fixtures on our table that provided lots of light for viewing the menu and each other. We will definitely return! We also included wine pairings with our meal for an additional $49. So worth it! Well done Wild Blue! Three cheers for amazing chefs!

Wild Blue is a new Whistler restaurant that has already received many awards and recognitions. They focus on sourcing the highest quality ingredients as locally as they can, and it shows in the fantastic food. My friends and I made a reservation for 5pm on a Sunday night. We arrived a little early and were able to enter the restaurant, check our coats (no additional cost), and get seated at our table. The ambiance is lovely, with an upscale feel. Our server was one of the best we have ever had. He explained everything so well, came by to check on us the right amount of times, and really made the experience special. The cocktails were amazing. I tried the matcha cocktail, and it was unique and very refreshing. My husband ordered a mocktail, and it was one of the best mocktails I have ever had. Oysters were tasty with a unique award-winning sauce on the side to try. The beets had a nice presentation and great flavors. I had the sablefish, which was a must try! My husband's housemate linguine with geoduck and clams was delightful. Our friends really enjoyed their tenderloin and ribcap steak. We also had some charred broccolini, potato purée, and truffle fries for the table. Everything was outstanding. The dessert was also great to end our meal. We ordered the pecan praline bar and warm chocolate fondant cake. Both were perfect in presentation and flavor. I highly recommend this new upscale restaurant. Be sure to make reservations as soon as you can to save your spot!

An absolutely delicious establishment in Whistler! The ambiance is moody and sexy. A dj or live music begins around 10. The food is just phenomenal. I highly recommend the cavatelli, octopus, beet salad, tuna tataki, scallops, and oysters. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu! Service was top notch.

Absolutely fantastic! The food and atmosphere was amazing but also the service, the service stood out as well. That's how you truly know it's fine dining. We got a little of everything & shared it all. Heavy seafood menu (which I love) but if you don't like seafood there's plenty of meat options too! Huge bar as well so they can make pretty much any drink. I will definitely back if/when I make it back to Whistler! Highly recommend.

Fancy restaurant with great service, nice ambiance and good food. Came here for a casual dinner, not knowing it was a fancier place so we were a bit underdressed. However, the staff were really great and service was top notch. Dishes here are on the expensive side and comes with smaller dishes but was a great sharing/ dining experience regardless. House sourdough 9/10 - Sourdough bread with butter, evoo and olives. The olives were small and salty. Bread was so fresh and warm, tasted great with the butter. Hamachi crudo 10/10 - A must get! Super fresh, refreshing and so tasty. Would get this dish again! Fish soup provencale 10/10 - Came with great presentation with soup poured table side. Soup is infused with saffron, fennel, gruyere cheese and has a crostini to top. Great deep flavours and crostini was amazing. Rootdown organic beets 8/10 - Not a fan of beats so I didn't try this dish. However, it looked amazing for presentation though! Endive salad 10/10 - Loved the deconstructed salad. The cabbage was a bit bitter but paired so well with the anchovies and parm. Cavatelli 8/10 - Not a strong black truffle taste to it. Small in size, not for sharing. But was a great carb option. Penne Pasta 9/10 - A tomato sauce based pasta. Again, small in size and not for sharing but was great in taste. Would recommend coming here for a nice sit down dinner or a date. We didn't get any steak this time but will definitely be grabbing some when I'm back!

Awesome restaurant you could find for fine dining in Whistler, BC. I was there for my birthday night and all foods are great taste and elegant shaped in plates. Unexpected for even better bar served by very experienced bartenders with best mixed drinks. Will definitely be back in the future. Highly recommended

This place offers the whole package of ambience, incredible food and attentive professional service. If you're a whiskey lover, your favorites will be here. If you're looking for craft cocktails, they're here. The food is prepared & presented beautifully and the seating is super comfortable on couch like benches with throw pillows and plenty of table space for the exquisite serving dishes used to present your food. This is not a good restaurant for kids. Foodies will love it. Treat yourself and enjoy. Don't miss the sticky toffee pudding before you

I've eaten at a lot of high end places in my life but I've never written a review. I went a couple of weeks ago with a friend from out of town. To cut right to the chase, for a main, I ordered the king crab pasta special that night. The portion was so miniscule, it was insulting. 3 or 4 bite sized prices of crab, and a few pasta noodles. When I say a few, I mean it. A small stack about 2 inches wide and maybe 4 inches long, maybe.. $60. Embarrassing. I wasnt even paying, but it was beyond the pale, and it bothered me. I feel like we were suckered. Everyone I told said to write a review. I finally have. Mike

Wild Blue is one of our favorite restaurants in Whistler. The service is professional, yet engaging, the ambience warm and stylish and the vibe exactly what we like; energetic, yet elegant. The delicious menu takes it to the next level. The oysters were perfection accompanied by three tasty sauces, the tuna tataki scrumptious and the himachi beautifully presented and yummy. I could keep going as we ordered a lot as we love to try new dishes, however I will spare you and just say try to get a reservation and enjoy!!

We love to go to our favourites when we visit but we also look for new places to try. This time around we found Wild Blue. Situated beside the Whistler Aava hotel, the turn in is beautiful. Bright blue lights in the trees make for a lovely pairing with their aqua, wood and stone front. The decor inside is cozy yet chic (did I already say how I loved the colour?). The seats we were at had pillows, adding to the coziness. Our server was super nice and attentive, especially to our kids (added bonus). We started out with a two-tiered seafood tower which had mussels, clams, hamachi, tuna, oysters (malpeque), and shrimp (with soda water on top of them with no ice water thank you thank you the tastiest, tangy yet sweet seafood sauce). Everything was fresh. There isn't a kids' menu but our server gave us some suggestions and they had a smaller order of the linguini which was gobbled up. To share, we had a burrata with roasted squash and pumpkin seeds, and thinly sliced squash "chips" on top. Usually burrata is with tomatoes and cold but this was an entirely different, season-appropriate treat for the senses. So many textures and flavours at once: light and crispy from the squash chips contrasting with the fullness from the roasted squash complimenting the creaminess in the burrata and a surprise from the roasted pumpkin seeds with hints of cinnamon! I wish more restaurants would serve burrata this way. The beet salad with rice crisps was quite delicious and a beautiful dish. We ordered 3 scallops since they are by the piece. They came seared with hollandaise sauce. Unfortunately this was my least favourite dish as the sauce was a bit strange paired with scallops and the scallops themselves were nicely caramelized on the outside but a bit sandy and too chewy for the amount we paid for them. The ribeye was seasoned and flavourful and cooked to a perfect medium. The meat quality was top notch and tender. The seafood linguini with geoduck and clams was average. Last but not least we had a cappuccino which paired nicely with the hazelnut chocolate bar. The chocolate "bar" was like a chocolate mousse with hints of hazelnut on a chocolate wafer infused cake bottom. It was delicious! All-in-all a great new find and dining option in Whistler!

As exciting as a new restaurant in Whistler goes, Wild Blue's opening was full of hype and expectation. Personally, having seen restaurants come and go in this ski town, I was full of hope for this amazing new restaurant. However, to compete for the top seat here in town, it takes more than "good" to knock some of the familiar favorites off their pedestal. "Simple done well" is how I would describe my first experience here. Initially I was coveting one of the tables in the dining area but as the evening progressed, I felt that we had scored the best seats in the house - at the bar. However, it can be seen that Wild Blue weren't trying to claim the top spot for fine dining in Whistler. Instead, it provided a rambunctious atmosphere without all the fuss of a white table cloth environment that had great drinks and decent food. I say decent because the menu is confusing to me. From a price point, the appetizers were phenomenal. But, as we progressed onto the pastas and mains, this was where I started getting confused. Let's just say stick to the apps and mains, if you want a steak - go to Hy's. Overall good steaks and great produce; 10/10 would come back for drinks and a good time.

I don't have enough good things to say about this place. You must go here. The food is amazing, the service is fantastic, and the price is incredibly reasonable for what you're getting. The staff were so great at explaining the menu and helping us as our first time there. The restaurant is beautiful, and the food is to die for. The truffle pasta was rich and flavorful, the sable fish was cooked to absolute perfection. Our table of 8 was blown away by the quality of food and perfect presentation and preparation. When I come back to Whistler, there's no way this place isn't on the top of my list to return to!

Loving how the Whistler food scene is hitting all the right spots! And was happy to make visit Wild Blue with my recent visit over the Canada Day long weekend. They were listed under 'Canada's 100 Best' this year and their dishes sure proved they deserve this recognition. We ordered the House-made Linguine + Summer Pea Soup + Snap Peas + AAA Ribeye Cap + side of Truffle fries. The house-made linguine takes a spin on your linguine alle vongole with the addition of geoduck - very fresh and the seafood was cooked perfectly! One of my favourite was the pea soup. It was beautifully plated with the crostini ring on top and had such great flavours with delicious bites of smoked sablefish in the soup. And the best part for dog owners is that you can enjoy fine dining with your pooch by your side in the comfort of their dog friendly patio!

Had amazing 4-course dinner at Wild Blue last night, great ambiance, superb service by Jeff, recommend roasted carrot salad, young beets salad, then main course for the tender and super tasty pork cheek, finishing off with a tiramisu, yum!! Highly recommended!

We went on the first weekend of September, at the end of several days of gastronomic excess, so we couldn't eat nearly as much as we wanted to. The decor is beautiful, and with the dark setting and low ceiling, you have no idea that it's a beautiful sunny day outside. The place settings, stemware, etc are gorgeous. The cocktails are absolutely fabulous. Service is fantastic. The food ranged from "ok" to mind blowing. We presume that is because they were still relatively new when we went, and were still working out the kinks in the kitchen. Their signature Provincal fish soup was absolutely DIVINE. Their take on vongole pasta was disappointing - the clams were good, but the flavour was a bit lacklustre Their seared scallops were quite good. My hubby had their halibut t-bone and it was woefully overcooked. He didn't want to waste the food so choked it down which is unfortunate given the price. I'm giving them 4/5 because overall, it is a beautiful room with amazing cocktails - and I'm presuming the unevenness in the kitchen will be ironed out.
